D.C. Council debates making permanent a summer youth curfew after its expiration, with police supporting it for public safety.
D.C. Council is debating whether to make permanent a summer juvenile curfew that expired October 5, following a rise in large youth gatherings and property damage after its end.
The emergency measure, which banned groups of nine or more under-18s in designated zones between 8 p.m. and 11 p.m., saw no violations during its operation.
Police Chief Pamela Smith urges reinstatement, citing prevention of disruptions, while some council members oppose permanence, advocating for youth programs over curfews.
A vote on emergency renewal is set for November 4, but no long-term plan has been introduced.
