Colorado Springs enforces juvenile curfew under CSCC §9.5.101 — minors under 18 prohibited from public places 11 PM-5 AM Sunday-Thursday and midnight-5 AM Friday-Saturday. El Paso County unincorporated has no separate curfew; state law C.R.S. §19-2-503 and C.R.S. §18-3-401 provide framework.
Colorado Springs City Code §9.5.101 establishes one of the stricter juvenile curfews on the Front Range. Minors under 18 may not be in public places, streets, parks, or business premises during curfew hours: 11 PM-5 AM Sunday through Thursday; midnight-5 AM Friday and Saturday. Exceptions include: accompanied by parent/guardian, traveling to or from work with employer documentation, attending school-sponsored or religious event, emergency, or running errand for parent with signed note. First offense typically a warning; second offense $50-$150 fine to parent/guardian; repeat offenses up to $500 and referral to El Paso County juvenile court. Fountain, Manitou Springs, and Monument enforce parallel curfews. Colorado Springs Police Department issues curfew citations most actively in downtown, Citadel Mall, and Memorial Park areas. El Paso County Sheriff does not enforce a separate county curfew in unincorporated areas, relying on C.R.S. §19-2-503 (juvenile delinquency) and §18-3-401 (enticement of a child). USAFA, Peterson, and Fort Carson have military-family curfew orders independent of city code. Daytime curfew during school hours enforced through truancy statutes.
First offense: warning and parent notification. Second: $50-$150 parent fine. Third+: $250-$500 plus juvenile court referral. Repeat violations may trigger truancy proceedings under C.R.S. §22-33-107.
