The mayor moved the curfew from 11 p.m. to 10 p.m. on weekends.

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot will seek City Council approval for the 10 p.m. weekend curfew for minors that she announcedThe mayor originally said she would issue an executive order imposing the curfew. She did so “under her emergency powers,” City Law Department spokeswoman Kristen Cabanban said, but “she always intended to codify the change and get full Council approval.”The emergency order took effect Tuesday when it was filed with the city clerk’s office, Cabanban said.

Lightfoot’s curfew announcement Monday followed the death of 16-year-old Seandell Holliday of the Roseland neighborhood, who was shot near The Bean on Saturday night, allegedly by aPolice said the shooting occurred during an altercation at a time when large groups of young people had gathered at the downtown park in a scene that became chaotic.

“Anyone coming into our public spaces should be able to enjoy them safely,” she said Monday. “Young people are absolutely welcome downtown but in the evening hours they must be accompanied by a responsible adult.” Chicago’s curfew policy for minors, which has been in place for three decades, contains several exceptions. Minors can be out after curfew, for example, if they’re accompanied by or doing an errand for a parent or guardian, attending an event supervised by adults and sponsored by an official organization, standing on the sidewalk outside their home or if it’s an emergency. Minors are also exempt if they’re exercising First Amendments rights such as at a protest.
