The City Council finds and determines that repeat curfew violations drain the manpower and resources of the Police Department and may result in leaving other areas of the city without minimal levels of police protection thereby creating a significant safety hazard to the community. The purpose of this chapter is to defray the reasonable costs of providing police services in responding to and detaining repeat curfew violators.
