NAVASOTA REMINDS PARENTS ABOUT CURFEW ORDINANCE

  

The City of Navasota is reminding parents about their youth curfew ordinance.  The ordinance was put in place in 2002 and designed to prevent late night juvenile crime.

The ordinance reads: any person 17 years of age or younger is not to be out, without a parent, later than 11:00 PM Sunday through Thursday, and midnight Friday through Saturday. Failure to comply with the curfew ordinance could result in a citation to the minor and any parent who knowingly allowed the minor to be out unsupervised. Work, school and church functions are possible exceptions to the ordinance.  Anyone with questions about the ordinance can contact the Navasota City Hall at (936) 825-6475.
