Dick Heaven, psuedo-Mayor for the meeting, together with other Toast- master members, assumed a City-Council's air to hear arguments for and against the proposed curfew. Statements, limited to four minutes, were given by Toastmasters who donned citizen hats during that period. "This is no time for fuzzy thinking", commented veteran Toastmaster Will Carroll, "We're discussing the rights of individuals, mass punishment for individual crimes and an ordinance that will be very costly if not im- possible to enforce. " Pointed questions were raised by other acting citizens . . "lho is to determine a legitimate reason for being out after curfew?" . . "What about a youth passing through Fairfax City?" . . "What will be the reaction of the teenager who is one day older than the restricted age?" Howard Dunning, President of the Fairfax club, succinctly concluded a very persuasive argument with, "I'm dead set against it." The subject of the Toastmasters meeting was a response to the request (-/zy/..k ., from Majord that all organizations and clubs in the area discuss the proposed curfew ordinance for Fairfax City. The Toastmasters enthusiastically �i ly Mpregf, endorsed this move by the 3' as a vital democratic process in preparing citizens for public hearings. �T /). �/a 5:�,�j m �o1zo� P�i7,6,4ac,-Jer, fay o.y�. -,..a- \\\ the ai onalfan,k of Jalr�fax' Fairfax, Virginia October 10 , 1962 CRESCENT 3-2200 P.O.BOX 158 Mr. William M.

This report summarizes the provisions of the curfew and Halloween curfew ordinances of representative localities having such ordinances. The information in this report was taken from questionnaires mailed on November 13, 1962 to Virginia cities, urban counties, towns above 5, 000 population, and selected smaller towns. Of the fifty-nine questionnaires mailed out, fifty-two were completed and returned. Twenty-five places returning the questionnaire reported that they have curfew ordinances. The localities were asked to comment on the effectiveness of their curfew ordinances in curbing juvenile delinquency. Generally the ordinance is found to be valuable, but is used selectively only. In some cases, publicizing the ordinance has helped to decrease the problem of minors being on the streets at night. The curfew and Halloween curfew ordinances of several localities are contained in the report. Copies of ordinances from other places are available from the League office upon request. This report was prepared by Miss Anne deButts, Research Assistant of the Virginia Municipal League. Harold I. Baumes Executive Secretary Conditions under which a child is exempt from curfew.:ordinance regulations All localities that have curfew ordinances exempt a child from regulation when he is accompanied by a parent, guardian, and/or other adult to whose care he has been committed. Covington, Norfolk, Portsmouth, and South Norfolk require that the child carry written permission from his parents if he is to be on the public streets or in a public place alone after the curfew hour. Big Stone Gap, Charlottesville, Clifton Forge, Manassas Park, Staunton, and Winchester exempt the child from the curfew hour if his employment requires that he be out past the hour. A number of cities and towns have provisions in their ordinances whereby the child may be on the streets or in public places after curfew hour if he is on business or an emergency errand, sent by his parents. Lexington, Manassas Park, Richmond, and Roanoke exempt any minor who is attending places of religious worship, meetings of Boy and Girl Scouts, or similar organizations, and/or school functions. Parental Responsibility The curfew ordinances of all localities except Abingdon, Bedford, Bristol (except in special cases), and Covington, have provisions making the parent respon- sible for the child' s violation of the regulation. The information was not reported for Buena Vista. Christiansburg, Colonial Heights, Henrico, Lexington, Richmond, and Winchester also have provisions in their ordinances making it unlawful for the proprietor, manager, or other person in charge of a public place to allow or encourage a minor to remain in the public place after the curfew hour. Following is an excerpt from the Lexington • ordinance concerning this subject: "It shall be unlawful for the owner, manager or other person having control of any public place, or any business or private motor vehicle, to permit, allow or encourage any minor child under the age of eighteen years, to loiter or remain in or about such public place , or motor vehicle, between the hours of 11:00 P. M. and daylight of the following day, unless such child be accompanied by a parent, guardian or other adult person in the manner hereinbefore described. " Effectiveness of ordinance Only two ocalities having a curfew ordinance report that it is strictly enforced. Other localities feel that it is a valuable Law to have on the books to be used selectively as needed. Following are comments from the Localities concerning the effectiveness of the curfew in curbing juvenile delinquency: Abingdon "When adopted, we had a problem. Using publicity and selective enforcement it has reduced our problem considerably. " Bedford "Ordinance is very effective in curbing juvenile delinquency. Without it, we feel that there would very definitely be much more. " Buena Vista "Provides a fair instrument mostly in the direction of preventive action and tends to make juveniles realize they are under surveillance. Best use is for investigation of prowling children. The name taking is a deterrent. " Charlottesville "Useful tool for police to quell trouble before it can get started and is only used for this purpose. " Chr i stiansburg "Ordinance is very effective in that it allows Police to prevent juvenile 'gangs' from forming on streets. " Clifton Forge "The present ordinance is out of date but it has helped somewhat in gaining respect for the Police Department. " Covington "Several times in past 5 years we have enforced the ordinance strictly when there have been outbreaks of juvenile vandalism. This policy appears to have corrected the problem. " 2 Henrico County "This ordinance can be helpful to the police in certain circumstances, but has been seldom used as there have been other means of handling most of the juvenile problems. " Lexington "The ordinance was given favorably publicity and since its enactment there has been no problem and no arrests have been made. " Manassas Park "Loitering and vandalism have been minimized since this ordinance has been in effect." Norfolk "It is of some assistance. In dealing with areas which are consistently hangouts for those covered by the ordinance, advice to them of the existing ordinance is of some benefit." Norton "Discourages minors from lingering and loitering on the streets after 11:00 P. M." Petersburg "A valuable instrument to have in the city code to be used when needed. " Pulaski "This is excellent to have on the books, to use in specific problem areas or times. " Richmond "This ordinance was passed during the war to keep minors off the street, but lately we have not been enforcing it so strongly. The courts have not been so harsh with violators Lately. We do not have too much of this at the present time." Staunton "It is felt that although the problem has never been great, that getting the children off the streets results in Less juvenile delinquency. " Wytheville • "It is effective in that it gives our police a valid reason for questioning juveniles and investigating their activities after 11:00 p. m.

Halloween Curfew Ordinances Amherst, Charlottesville, and Culpeper have passed ordinances regulating the celebration of Halloween in public places. Harrisonburg' s city council passed a resolution on the same subject. The Harrisonburg resolution sets a special curfew hour of 11:00 p. m. on Halloween, applying to aLL persons, regardless of age, who are cele- brating Halloween. The Amherst and Culpeper ordinances set curfew at 11:00 p. m. and Limit trick-or-treat visitations to children under twelve years of age. The Charlottesville ordinance sets curfew at 10:00 p. m. and limits trick-or-treat activities to children under twelve. The Amherst Town Council passed its special Halloween curfew ordinance in October of 1961. A copy of the ordinance was published in the local newspaper on two different days. The mayor and council stressed the fact that the purpose of the ordinance was not to put a stop to Halloween fun, but to eliminate vandalism and trick-or-treat by adults. The town had experienced considerable vandalism in previous years, but the Halloween of 1961 was reported to be the quietest in the town' s history. In this case, citizen kciowledge of the ordinance was believed to be a definite factor in eliminating vandalism and disturbance of the peace. On the following page are the resolution and ordinance of Harrisonburg and Culpeper. 10 BE IT RESOLVED, that a curfew is hereby declared, to be effective and enforced at and after the hour of 11:00 p. m. on the night of October 31, 1962 (Halloween), after which curfew hour it shall be unlawful for any person to be on the streets or public places of the City of Harrisonburg for the purpose of cele- brating Halloween. The provisions of this resolution are designed to curb and limit the celebration of Halloween to appropriate hours, and shall not extend or apply to the use of the City streets or other public places for any other proper purpose.
