Citywide Curfew Begins Friday at 10 P.M.
The Mayor and Tucson City Council last night, Dec. 1, approved a mandatory curfew, effective Friday, Dec. 4, at 10 p.m. The curfew will be in effect nightly, from 10 p.m.-5 a.m., until Dec. 23. There are a number of exemptions, including essential workers and essential activities, people traveling to and from work, those attending religious services, commercial trucking and delivery services, homeless individuals, and more. The curfew does not require businesses to close at 10 p.m., but it does restrict non-essential travel. While ignoring the curfew is a civil infraction, with a maximum fine of $300, enforcement will begin first with education, and a diversion program will be available for violators after that. Mayor Romero is also urging Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey to pass a statewide curfew and mask mandate. (Source: City of Tucson NewsNet)
