Juveniles under the age of 17 cannot be out alone between 11 p.m. and 6 a.m. Sunday through Thursday or midnight and 6 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. The ordinance has been in place since 1994, but a state statute requires the council to review and vote on it every three years.

Council members said they need more information from police and the community to determine if the curfew has been effective.
