A. It is unlawful to loiter or lounge in the streets and sidewalks of the city, or in or about any public grounds, public places or buildings for any immoral purpose, or to annoy, disturb or insult other persons with the evident intent of so annoying, disturbing or insulting, by any acts, gestures or language, or for immoral purposes to stand or be in or about any of the streets, alleys, walks, bridges, public grounds or other places within the city during either the day or night.
B. It shall be unlawful for any person within the city to loiter or remain in or about the area within six hundred fifty feet (650') of the property line of any property used for school purposes unless such person has a relationship involving custody of or responsibility for a pupil or student, or is attending activities or functions sponsored by the school, or resides within one thousand feet (1,000') of the school, or is visiting a resident within such area or has written permission from an authorized agent of the school. Unless flight by such person or other circumstance makes it impracticable, any police officer shall, prior to an arrest for an offense under this subsection, afford such person an opportunity to explain his presence and conduct. No person shall be convicted of an offense under this subsection if the police officer did not comply with the preceding sentence or if it appears at trial that the explanation given by such person was true and, if believed by the police officer at the time, would have served as justification for his presence pursuant to this section. (Ord. 171, 1984; amd. Ord. 283, 1993)
