This is just taking homophobia to all new levels:

Fort Lauderdale Mayor Jim Naugle is concerned about "homosexuals ... engaging in sex, anonymous sex, illegal sex," in the city's public restrooms, so he wants to spend $250,000 on a robotic toilet with a door that springs open after a few minutes.

"We're trying to provide a family environment where people can take their children who need to use the bathroom without having to worry about a couple of men in there engaged in a sex act," he tells the South Florida Sun-Sentinel.

The local CBS affiliate reports that the toilets -- which could cost $350,000 a piece --  are designed to accommodate one person at a time and "are self-cleaning, self locking, and have a special timer that opens the door and sets off a siren if it thinks you've been in there too long."

The paper says Naugle has been on a crusade against indecency in the restrooms, even though local police say they're not aware of any reports about people having sex in the public toilets.

"There's no evidence, no reports or arrests made for any men having sex in any restrooms," Sgt. Frank Sousa tells the paper.

Lack of an actual problem has never stopped any politician from initiating a solution, which will then cause all sorts of newer, larger problems they can solve, all on the tax payers dime.  For the kids of course.
