Newark’s expanded youth curfew, which began July 3, is scheduled to remain in effect seven days a week through the week of Sept. 6, the city says.
After that period, Newark plans to return the youth curfew to a weekend schedule through the end of September.
Summer schedule remains in place
The City of Newark announced the expanded summer schedule on July 3. The change applies within Newark city limits and concerns the city’s youth curfew.
The city described the seven-day schedule as a summer-period measure. Its announced timeline calls for the expanded schedule to continue until the week of Sept. 6, rather than ending immediately after the July 3 start date.
Return to weekends is planned
The return to a weekend-only schedule is planned, not yet a completed change. Under the city’s announcement, that weekend schedule is to continue through the end of September.
The available city announcement does not state the exact nightly curfew hours. It also does not provide further details in the supplied material about enforcement, exemptions or other operational provisions.
Residents seeking to understand the current schedule should note the distinction between the active seven-day summer schedule and the later, planned weekend schedule.
