531.03 EXCEPTIONS.
   In the following exceptional cases, a minor on a street during the nocturnal hours for which Section 531.02 is intended to prove the maximum limits of regulation shall not be considered in violation of this chapter:
   (a)    When accompanied by a parent of such minor.
   (b)    When accompanied by an adult authorized by a parent of such minor to take the parent’s place in accompanying the minor for a designated period of time and purpose within a specified area.
   (c)    When exercising First Amendment rights protected by the United State Constitution such as the free exercise of religion, freedom of speech and the right of assembly. Such minor shall evidence the bona fides of such exercise by first delivering, to communications center personnel at the Municipal Building, where and by whom high priority messages to the Chief of Police are regularly received, written communication signed by such minor and countersigned if practicable by a parent of such minor with their home address and telephone number, addressed to the Chief of Police specifying when, where and in what matter the minor will be on the streets at night, during the hours when this chapter is otherwise applicable to the minor, in the exercise of a First Amendment right specified in such communication.
   (d)    In case of reasonable necessity, but only after such minor's parent has communicated to the Police station personnel the facts establishing such reasonable necessity relating to specified streets at a designated time for a described purpose including points of origin and destination. A copy of such communication or of the police record thereof, duly certified by the Chief of Police to be correct, with an appropriate notation of the time it was received and of the names and address of such parent and minor, shall be admissible evidence.
   (e)    When the minor is on the sidewalk of the place where such minor resides, or on the sidewalk of either next-door neighbor not communicating an objection to the police officer.
    (f)   When returning home, by a direct route from, and within thirty minutes of the termination of a school activity, or an activity of a religious or other voluntary association, of which prior notice, indicating the place and probable time of termination, has been given in writing to, and duly filed for immediate reference by, the Chief of Police of the officer assigned by him on duty at the Police Station.
   (g)    When the minor carries a certified card of employment renewable each calendar month when the current facts so warrant, dated or reissued not more than forty-five days previously, signed by the Chief of Police and briefly identifying the minor, the addresses of his home and place of employment and his hours of employment.
   (h)    When the minor is, with parental consent, in a motor vehicle.
   (i)    Each of the foregoing exceptions, and their several limitations, such as provisions for notification, are severable, and additional, also severable exceptions, broadening with the progress toward maturity of minors enrolled respectively in elementary, junior high and high schools, will be considered by Council as warranteed by future experience illuminated by the views of student government associations, school personnel, citizens, associations, ward, precinct and neighborhood spokesmen, parents, officers and persons in authority concerned positively with minors as well as with juvenile delinquency.
