Armona, CA

Unincorporated Kings County has no fixed clock-based quiet hours. Its noise abatement ordinance (Code Ch. 15, Art. X, Sec. 15-211) instead bans any noise that annoys persons of ordinary sensitivity or interferes with the comfortable enjoyment of life or property, enforced by the Sheriff as a nuisance.

Kings County's code sets no specific permitted hours for construction noise in unincorporated areas. Construction is judged under the general noise-nuisance standard (Sec. 15-211), which bars noise that unreasonably disturbs neighbors given its time and place.

Kings County Code Sec. 4-79 makes it an infraction to keep an animal that, by continuous barking, whining, or other noise, unreasonably disturbs the peace, comfort, or quiet of any neighborhood resident. Animal Control (Sheriff's Office) investigates complaints.

Kings County has no ordinance specific to leaf blowers or gas-powered yard equipment in unincorporated areas. Such noise is handled under the general nuisance standard (Sec. 15-211), and statewide CARB rules phase out new gas-powered small off-road engines.

Kings County's code has no vehicle-noise or muffler ordinance; on-road vehicle noise is governed by the California Vehicle Code, enforced by the Sheriff and CHP. Amplified sound broadcast from a vehicle does require a county permit under Chapter 8, Article II.

Kings County controls amplified sound through its noise-nuisance rule (Sec. 15-211) and a loud-party cost-recovery scheme (Secs. 15-212, 15-213). Loudspeakers mounted on vehicles also require a Board of Supervisors permit (Code Ch. 8, Art. II).

Kings County's noise ordinance sets no decibel limits; it bans noise that is unreasonably annoying or a nuisance (Sec. 15-211). Quantitative CNEL noise levels appear only in the General Plan Noise Element for land-use planning, not as an enforceable sound cap.

Outdoor music and live entertainment in unincorporated Kings County fall under the noise-nuisance rule (Sec. 15-211) and the loud-party cost-recovery scheme (Secs. 15-212 to 15-213). Larger entertainment events also require an entertainment permit under Code Ch. 15, Art. III.

Industrial and agricultural noise in unincorporated Kings County is controlled through the noise-nuisance rule (Sec. 15-211) and, for new development, the General Plan Noise Element's CNEL standards applied during land-use permitting and CEQA review rather than by a fixed decibel ordinance.

Military jet noise from NAS Lemoore is the dominant aircraft-noise source in Kings County. It is governed by the Navy's AICUZ program and federal law, not the county code. The county manages compatibility through General Plan CNEL standards and agricultural zoning around the base.

Kings County has no dedicated short-term rental or vacation rental ordinance for its unincorporated areas. There is no STR permit, license, or registration program separate from general zoning approval and the County's Transient Occupancy Tax. STR operators are treated under existing land-use rules plus the TOT operator registration in County Code Chapter 22, Article III.

Unincorporated Kings County has no STR-specific registration scheme, but the Transient Occupancy Tax ordinance requires every operator of a 'hotel' (broadly defined to include transient lodging) to register with the Tax Collector within 15 days and post a transient occupancy registration certificate. The certificate is a tax document, not a land-use permit.

Unincorporated Kings County imposes a 10% Transient Occupancy Tax on the rent for stays of 30 days or less (Code Sec. 22-38). Operators collect the tax from guests, register with the Tax Collector, and file quarterly returns. Stays over 30 days and rent under $20 per day are exempt. There is no separate STR license fee.

Kings County has no short-term rental ordinance and therefore sets no STR-specific guest or occupancy cap for unincorporated areas. Occupancy is governed only by general standards - building and housing code limits tied to dwelling size and septic capacity, plus any zoning conditions - not by a vacation-rental maximum-occupancy rule.

There is no short-term rental parking standard in unincorporated Kings County because the County has not adopted an STR ordinance. Parking for a rental dwelling is governed by the general off-street parking requirements in the County Development Code for the applicable zone, not by a vacation-rental-specific rule.

Kings County has no short-term rental ordinance, so STR noise is not governed by a vacation-rental-specific quiet-hours rule. Instead, guest noise at unincorporated rentals is addressed under the County's general nuisance and disturbance provisions and California state law, enforced by the Sheriff and county code enforcement.

Unincorporated Kings County imposes no primary-residence or owner-occupancy requirement on short-term rentals, because it has no STR ordinance. Non-owner-occupied and investor-operated rentals are not prohibited by any county STR rule; the only constraints are general zoning permissibility and Transient Occupancy Tax compliance.

Kings County does not require an on-site host or a designated local contact for short-term rentals, because it has no STR ordinance. Hosted and unhosted (whole-home) rentals are both allowed under general rules, with no mandated 24-hour responsible-person or response-time requirement for unincorporated areas.

Unincorporated Kings County sets no annual or per-booking night cap on short-term rentals, because it has no STR ordinance. The only night-based threshold in county law is the Transient Occupancy Tax line between taxable transient stays (30 days or less) and exempt long-term stays (over 30 days), not a limit on how many nights a property may be rented.

Kings County mandates no liability insurance for short-term rentals, because it has no STR ordinance. There is no county-required coverage minimum or proof-of-insurance condition for unincorporated-area rentals. Operators carry insurance voluntarily or as required by a hosting platform or lender, not by county code.

Unincorporated Kings County allows 'safe and sane' fireworks, but only nonprofit organizations may sell them under a county fire department permit. Sales run June 28-July 4 and discharge is allowed only July 1 (9 a.m.) through July 4 (midnight). All 'dangerous' fireworks are banned countywide with escalating administrative fines.

Unincorporated Kings County has adopted the 2019 California Fire Code, which allows recreational fires and portable outdoor fireplaces with setbacks from structures. Any open fire must be attended and fully extinguished before leaving. On no-burn days, the San Joaquin Valley Air District also restricts outdoor wood-burning devices.

Open burning of yard waste and household trash is effectively prohibited in unincorporated Kings County, which sits in the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District. Kings County Fire no longer issues burn permits; agricultural burn permits come from the air district, and most open agricultural burning has been phased out under state law.

Most of unincorporated Kings County is flat Central Valley agricultural land at low wildfire risk and is a Local Responsibility Area, not the State Responsibility Area covered by CAL FIRE's wildland program. CAL FIRE delivered updated Fire Hazard Severity Zone maps to the county in March 2025 for review and adoption.

Kings County Code prohibits accumulating dry weeds, brush, and other flammable waste material on property in the unincorporated area when it creates a fire hazard. The county fire chief can order owners to clear the material, and if they fail, the county can abate it and recover the cost as a lien against the property.

Backyard recreational fires are allowed in unincorporated Kings County under the adopted 2019 California Fire Code, but open burning of trash and yard waste is barred by the San Joaquin Valley Air District. Every fire must be attended at all times and fully extinguished before you leave it.

Kings County does not have its own smoke-alarm ordinance; smoke detector rules in the unincorporated area follow California state law (Health & Safety Code Section 13113.7) and the California Building/Fire Code adopted as the Kings County Fire Code. Approved smoke alarms are required in every dwelling, and landlords must keep them operable.

Propane storage in unincorporated Kings County is regulated through the 2019 California Fire Code, which the county adopted as the Kings County Fire Code, plus NFPA 58. Tanks must meet distance requirements from buildings and property lines, may not be stored indoors or below grade, and larger installations require a fire department permit.

Kings County's Code does not set a dedicated street RV/boat ordinance; recreational vehicle and boat storage is governed by the County Development Code in residential and agricultural zones. On county roads, the state's 72-hour rule and abandoned-vehicle abatement apply to stored RVs and boats.

Kings County regulates on-street parking through the Board of Supervisors' marking orders (Code sec. 23-34) and posted signs, plus curb-color rules (sec. 23-35). Where the County has not posted a restriction, the California Vehicle Code governs stopping and parking on county roads.

Kings County's Code has no countywide overnight street-parking ban; most rural roads allow overnight parking. California Vehicle Code 22507.5 lets local authorities adopt 2 a.m.–6 a.m. restrictions, and CVC 22651(k) allows removal of vehicles left on a road 72+ hours.

Kings County's Code limits commercial activity from vehicles on county highways (secs. 23-1 to 23-3) and restricts weight on some roads. Heavy commercial-vehicle parking in residential areas is reached by California Vehicle Code 22507.5, which allows limits on vehicles rated 10,000 lbs or more.

Kings County Code Chapter 23, Article IV declares abandoned, wrecked, dismantled, or inoperative vehicles on private or public property a public nuisance under CVC 22660, and sets a notice-and-abatement process. The building official can order removal, with a $20 administrative cost plus removal charges.

Kings County does not have a specific County Code section banning parking across a driveway; that rule comes from California Vehicle Code 22500, which prohibits stopping in front of any public or private driveway. Driveway construction and access are regulated through County encroachment/setback standards.

Kings County imposes road weight limits on certain roads (Code sec. 23-4) and channels heavy traffic via through-highway rules, but has no blanket oversized-vehicle street ban. California Vehicle Code 22507.5 lets the County restrict 10,000+ lb commercial vehicles in residential districts.

Kings County's Code of Ordinances has no dedicated EV-charging parking ordinance. EV charging stations are permitted and reviewed through the County's building permit process under the California Building/Green Building standards, and state law (CVC 22511) governs reserved EV-charging parking spaces.

Kings County defines loading-zone curb colors in Code sec. 23-35: yellow allows stopping only to load/unload passengers or freight for up to 30 minutes, and white allows passenger loading for up to 10 minutes. Off-street loading for development is set by the County Development Code (Article 13).

Kings County Code sec. 23-35 sets the official curb-color legend: red = no stopping/standing/parking; yellow = loading only, 30-minute max; white = passenger loading, 10-minute max; green = 10-minute time-limited parking. Markings are placed by Board order (sec. 23-34) and take effect only once posted.

In unincorporated Kings County, fences in residential (R-1/RM) zones may reach seven feet; in Rural Residential (RR) and agricultural zones fences may exceed seven feet, but anything over seven feet is a structure needing a building permit. Within a Traffic Safety Visibility Area, fences, walls and hedges cannot exceed three feet.

Unincorporated Kings County does not require a zoning permit for a typical fence, and the adopted California Building Code exempts fences up to seven feet from a building permit. Any fence, wall or gate over seven feet is a structure that requires a building permit before construction. Pool-enclosure and electric-gate work also trigger permits.

Kings County's Development Code does not assign cost-sharing for shared boundary fences. That issue is governed by California's statewide Good Neighbor Fence Act (Civil Code Section 841), which presumes adjoining owners share equally in the cost of a dividing fence and requires 30 days' written notice before one neighbor seeks contribution from the other.

Kings County's Development Code lets retaining walls (with fences, hedges, gates, walks and driveways) occupy any required yard, subject to district limits. The adopted California Building Code exempts retaining walls up to four feet (footing to top) from a building permit, unless the wall supports a surcharge or impounds certain liquids.

Kings County fence rules center on clear sight lines and gates set back from the road. Solid fences in R-1/RM zones may reach seven feet if set back ten feet from the front line; manual entry gates must sit 20 feet back; pool barriers must meet state law; and nothing over three feet may stand in a visibility triangle.

Kings County's Development Code does not ban specific fence materials. Instead it classifies fences by openness - Open (at least 50% see-through), Solid (51% or more closed) and Screened (90% or more closed) - and applies those categories to front-yard and visibility rules. Where screening is required, a solid fence, masonry wall or compact plant growth is specified.

There is no County list of approved fence materials in unincorporated Kings County. Wood, chain link, vinyl, masonry and wrought iron are all acceptable; the rules that matter are openness category, height and visibility. A slatted chain-link or vine-covered fence can satisfy the Code's 'screened fence' standard where screening is required.

In unincorporated Kings County, dogs may not run at large. County Code makes it unlawful to let any animal be at large without reasonable control on public places or on private property against the occupant's wishes. Enforcement is by Kings County Animal Services.

In residential areas of unincorporated Kings County, Animal Services states you may keep chickens, pigeons, quail and similar small birds — but no roosters. Larger poultry and livestock keeping depends on zoning. Agricultural-zoned land allows much more.

Unincorporated Kings County does not ban any specific dog breed. Instead, the County Code treats dogs that are vicious or potentially dangerous under California Food & Agriculture Code Sec. 31601 et seq. as a nuisance, regardless of breed.

Kings County's animal code (Chapter 4) does not set hive-specific backyard rules; beekeeping in unincorporated areas is governed mainly by California law. Every beekeeper must register apiaries annually with the County Agricultural Commissioner under Food & Agriculture Code Sec. 29040.

Possession of wild and exotic animals in unincorporated Kings County is governed mainly by California state law. California prohibits keeping listed 'restricted species' (such as many wild cats, primates and venomous reptiles) as pets without a state permit, which is not issued for personal pet keeping.

Kings County is a major dairy, cattle and farm county, and livestock keeping in unincorporated areas is shaped by zoning. The County Code defines livestock broadly and makes it unlawful to let animals run at large; livestock running at large is separately regulated.

Unincorporated Kings County does not set a small fixed pet cap, but the County Code requires a multiple-animal (kennel) permit for anyone keeping ten or more altered dogs or cats. A kennel is defined as a place with ten or more dogs or cats over four months old.

Unincorporated Kings County requires cats to be vaccinated against rabies and to be spayed or neutered unless medically exempt. Cats are not required to be licensed like dogs, but the County's mandatory spay/neuter rule (Sec. 4-20) covers cats over four months.

Kings County's animal code does not publish a specific anti-wildlife-feeding ordinance, but feeding wild animals can create a nuisance, and California law restricts handling of wildlife. Feeding or sheltering a stray dog or cat for 30+ days makes you its legal harborer under the County Code.

Animal hoarding in unincorporated Kings County is addressed through California's animal-cruelty laws plus the County's kennel-permit and nuisance rules. Owners must provide proper food, water, shelter and care; failing to do so is a crime under California Penal Code Sec. 597.

Unincorporated Kings County has no general ordinance requiring permits to trim trees on private property. Pruning is largely unregulated, except that dead, diseased, or hazardous trees can be ordered cleared as a public nuisance, and trees obstructing roads or sight lines may have to be cut back.

Unincorporated Kings County has no fixed lawn-height number. Tall dry grass and weeds are regulated as a fire hazard and a property-maintenance nuisance only when they actually become hazardous or unsightly, under the County weed-abatement and public-nuisance ordinances.

Unincorporated Kings County has no heritage- or protected-tree ordinance requiring a permit to remove trees on private property. Removal is generally allowed. Hazardous or dead trees may be ordered removed as a nuisance, and a building or grading permit can carry its own landscape conditions.

Unincorporated Kings County enforces a weed-abatement ordinance (Code Ch. 10, Art. II). It is unlawful to accumulate dry grass, weeds, brush, and other flammable waste that creates a fire hazard. The Fire Chief gives a 15-day notice; if ignored, the County clears the land and bills the owner.

Day-to-day outdoor watering limits in unincorporated Kings County are driven mainly by California state rules and your local water provider, not a County landscape-watering ordinance. The State Water Board's permanent water-waste prohibitions ban hosing pavement, runoff, and watering during or just after rain.

Rainwater harvesting is legal in California and not prohibited by Kings County. Simple rain barrels and small landscape-irrigation catchment need no County permit. Larger cisterns, potable use, or plumbing connections fall under the building and plumbing codes the County enforces.

Kings County implements California's SB 1383 organic-waste law through Code Chapter 13. Most homes and businesses must use the three-container (blue/green/gray) system and keep food and green waste out of the trash. Backyard green-waste composting is allowed, and self-haul and low-population waivers exist.

Kings County does not mandate native plants and does not prohibit removing or replacing them on private land. For new permitted development, low-water and climate-appropriate plantings are encouraged through the state water-efficient landscape framework the Community Development Agency applies at plan review.

Artificial turf is not banned in unincorporated Kings County, and there is no County synthetic-lawn ordinance. Small ground-level installs generally need no permit, but drainage and setback rules apply, and permitted projects may have to count turf toward landscape standards reviewed by the Community Development Agency.

In unincorporated Kings County, a private residential pool is treated as an incidental/accessory use permitted by right, but a building permit from the Community Development Agency is required to construct an in-ground or fixed pool or spa. Plans are submitted through the County's online permit center.

Kings County's Development Code requires private single-family pools built after January 1, 1998 to be fenced, enclosed, or equipped with another safety feature per the California Health & Safety Code. New pools must meet the state Swimming Pool Safety Act, including an isolating enclosure at least 60 inches high if that feature is chosen.

Kings County adopts the California Swimming Pool Safety Act for private single-family pools. New or remodeled pools must include at least two of seven drowning-prevention features, such as an isolating enclosure, mesh fence, approved safety cover, exit/door alarms, or a water-entry alarm.

Above-ground pools are a permitted accessory use in unincorporated Kings County, but pool placement must respect the County's setback rule: no pool or accessory mechanical equipment within 5 feet of a property line or inside a utility easement. Larger above-ground pools generally require a building permit and state safety barriers.

Spas and hot tubs are treated like pools in unincorporated Kings County: a permitted accessory use subject to the 5-foot setback from property lines, and, when built or remodeled under permit, the California Swimming Pool Safety Act's drowning-prevention requirements apply unless the spa qualifies for an approved safety cover.

Unincorporated Kings County allows home-based businesses through tiered home occupations. Minor home occupations are permitted by right in residential and agricultural districts; rural home occupations need Site Plan Review; and some uses (like barber/beauty shops) require a conditional use permit. Standards are in Development Code Article 11, Section 1102.

Signage for a minor home occupation in unincorporated Kings County is tightly limited: only one name plate not exceeding two square feet is allowed. Rural home occupations may have larger signs - aggregate sign area up to 50 square feet, with no single sign over 30 square feet - under Development Code Article 11.

A minor home occupation in unincorporated Kings County is permitted by right and does not need a discretionary permit if it meets the standards of Development Code Section 1102.A. A rural home occupation requires Site Plan Review, and certain uses such as barber/beauty shops require a conditional use permit.

Kings County's Development Code does not separately regulate cottage food. California's Homemade Food Act (Health & Safety Code 113758) controls: the County may not prohibit a cottage food operation in a residence and must treat it as a permitted use or grant a nondiscretionary permit. Operators register or permit through Kings County Environmental Health.

Small family day care homes (8 or fewer children) are permitted by right in residential districts of unincorporated Kings County, consistent with state law. Large family day care homes (9-14 children) require Site Plan Review under Development Code Section 1117, must be operated by a full-time resident, and may operate only 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. weekdays.

Converting a garage to living space in unincorporated Kings County requires a building permit under the county Code of Ordinances Chapter 5. When the conversion creates an ADU or JADU, California state law (Gov. Code 66314, 66333) controls setbacks and standards and bars a setback requirement for same-footprint conversions.

Carports and patio covers in unincorporated Kings County are subject to the building code adopted in Code of Ordinances Chapter 5 and to Development Code zoning setbacks. The county publishes a Standard Patio Cover handout, and open agricultural shade structures can be permit-exempt under the California Building Code.

Tiny homes on a permanent foundation are reviewed as dwellings or ADUs under the county Development Code and Chapter 5 building code; the county issues a Mobile Home Information handout. A movable tiny house can qualify as an ADU under California law (Gov. Code 66313) if it meets standards.

In unincorporated Kings County, ADUs are reviewed ministerially under the county Development Code and controlling California ADU law (Gov. Code 66310-66342). State law guarantees at least one ADU on lots with a single-family or multifamily dwelling, including on agricultural-residential parcels.

Sheds and detached accessory structures in unincorporated Kings County are regulated by the county Development Code (zoning setbacks/coverage) and the building code adopted in Chapter 5 of the Code of Ordinances. Small agricultural shade structures can be permit-exempt under the California Building Code.

Using a backyard wood, pellet, or charcoal smoker for cooking is allowed in unincorporated Kings County. Cooking is not treated as open burning by the San Joaquin Valley Air District, but the adopted California Fire Code's open-flame cooking-device rules and the county's unattended-fire prohibition still apply.

Barbecuing with charcoal or propane is allowed in unincorporated Kings County. Gas and propane cooking devices are exempt from the San Joaquin Valley Air District's wood-burning no-burn rules, but the adopted California Fire Code limits open-flame cooking devices near combustible construction on multi-family balconies.

Setbacks in unincorporated Kings County are set by zone in the Development Code. In agricultural zones (Article 4), occupied structures need a 50-foot front setback, 10-foot rear and interior side, and 20-foot corner side. In residential zones (Article 5, Table 5-2) the R-1 front setback is 25 feet with 5-foot side yards and a 10-foot rear yard.

Residential structures in unincorporated Kings County are limited to 30 feet (up to 50 feet with a Conditional Use Permit) under Table 5-2. Agricultural uses and accessory structures have no general height limit, though wind-energy towers are capped at 80 feet on 1-5 acre parcels and 100 feet on larger parcels.

Lot coverage in unincorporated Kings County varies by zone. Residential Table 5-2 caps coverage at 40% in the RR and R-1 zones, rising to 50-70% in the RM multi-family zones (83.3% for the R-1-3 Kettleman City zone). Agricultural zones (Table 4-3) place no limit on the area that may be covered by structures.

Unincorporated Kings County has no tree-removal permit program. There is no heritage- or protected-tree ordinance for private property, so a County permit is generally not needed to remove a tree. Permitted development projects and state wildlife laws are the main qualifications.

In unincorporated Kings County, blight is handled through the Code Compliance Division, which enforces the County's nuisance, building, zoning and abandoned-vehicle ordinances. Dilapidated and substandard structures are declared public nuisances and abated under the adopted Uniform Code for the Abatement of Dangerous Buildings.

Unincorporated Kings County residents are served by Mid Valley Disposal. All carts must be at the curb by 6:00 a.m. on collection day, set at least 3 feet apart with lids closed and not blocked by parked vehicles, so the automated truck arm can service them.

Kings County does not publish a numeric weed-height standard for vacant lots, but overgrown vegetation, accumulated rubbish and dumped debris on vacant parcels are abated as public nuisances by the Code Compliance Division, with combustible vegetation also reachable under the fire-prevention chapter.

Kings County does not publish a fixed lawn-height number. Weeds and dry grass are regulated as a fire and nuisance issue: the Fire Marshal addresses hazardous/combustible vegetation under the fire-prevention chapter, and overgrowth that harbors pests or rubbish is abated as a public nuisance by Code Compliance.

We could not verify a dedicated Kings County garage-sale permit ordinance. Occasional yard sales are generally treated as a temporary residential use under the County Development Code, with such activities addressed in Article 11 (Standards for Specific Land Uses and Activities) of the zoning ordinance.

Mid Valley Disposal provides residential trash, recycling and organics collection across unincorporated Kings County. Containers must be curbside by 6:00 a.m.; routes run 6:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Six holidays push that week's collection one day later. Disposal is handled through the Kings Waste & Recycling Authority.

Mid Valley Disposal requires unincorporated Kings County residents to place carts curbside by 6:00 a.m., set at least 3 feet apart, with lids closed and clear of parked vehicles and obstructions so the automated truck arm can reach each container.

Mid Valley Disposal offers on-request bulky-item collection for unincorporated Kings County residents, covering old appliances, couches, mattresses, electronic waste and tires, arranged as a temporary service through the hauler. Residents may also self-haul to the Kings Waste & Recycling Authority facility.

Unincorporated Kings County residents receive a recycling cart from Mid Valley Disposal for commingled paper, cardboard, cans, glass and plastics #1, #2 and #5. Recycling is mandatory under California's AB 341 and SB 1383 framework, and the County is part of the Kings Waste & Recycling Authority.

California SB 1383 requires organics separation statewide. Kings County confirms that for unincorporated areas, subscribing to organics/recycling collection is mandatory unless the County's Environmental Health Division grants an exemption. Mid Valley Disposal's green organics cart takes yard waste plus food scraps and food-soiled paper.

Temporary political signs in unincorporated Kings County are subject to the county Development Code sign article (Article 14) and to California state law. Along state highways, Business & Professions Code 5405.3 limits temporary political signs to 32 sq ft and a defined display window.

Garage and yard sale signs in unincorporated Kings County fall under the county Development Code sign article (Article 14). In county parks, posting any sign or handbill requires the Parks Director's approval under Code of Ordinances Sec. 16-20. Signs may not be placed in the public road right-of-way.

Outdoor lighting standards for unincorporated Kings County are set in the county Development Code, including its overlay-zone provisions (Article 10), rather than in the general Code of Ordinances. No separate dark-sky lighting chapter appears in the county's codified ordinances.

Light trespass (light spilling onto neighboring property) in unincorporated Kings County is addressed through the county Development Code's lighting and glare standards rather than the general Code of Ordinances. Persistent glare may also be pursued as a private nuisance under California law.

Under Kings County Code of Ordinances Sec. 16-21, the Parks Director sets each park's hours of operation, and it is unlawful to enter, loiter, or remain in any county park during closed hours as posted at the main entrance. A separate minors' curfew (Sec. 8-60) runs 10:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m.
