Prevailing community standards about the time when minors should be off the streets, are reflected in this Part. The penalties for violation are as follows:
A. If, after written notice pursuant to §6-207(C) of a first violation by a minor, a parent violates §6-206 (in connection with a second violation by said minor) this shall be treated as a first offense by the parent. For such first parental offense a parent shall be fined $100 and for each subsequent offense by a parent the fine shall be increased by an additional $50, e.g., $150 for the second, $200 for the third offense, to a maximum of $600 per offense plus costs. The District Justice, upon finding a parent guilty, shall sentence the parent to pay such fine and the costs of prosecution, and upon refusal to pay such fine and costs, to be imprisoned in the Perry County Jail for a period not exceeding 30 days, or both. [Ord. 553]
B. Any minor who shall violate any of the provisions of this Part more than 3 times shall be reported by the Chief of Police to a society or organization whose purpose it is to take charge of incorrigibles and delinquents, and proceedings shall then be taken, under the Juvenile Act, 42 Pa.C.S.A. §6301 et seq., before the Juvenile Court for the treatment, supervision and rehabilitation of such minor
C. A like procedure, before the juvenile authorities, shall be followed in any case where the imposing of a fine or fines upon a parent shall not be effective, or where for any other reason the provisions of this Part cannot be made effective by the imposition of penalties under this Section.
