• Reminder: City park closes at 10pm. City curfew for minors is 11:00pm Sunday-Thursday and Midnight on Friday and Saturday evenings.
• ATV and unlicensed dirt bikes use on city streets is illegal and a citation will be issued to the driver under 321I.10 – operation on a highway / roadway. $50 fine, $17.50 surcharge and $60 court costs for $127.50 total. In the past we have been lenient with the use of ATV’s on the street but it does not work out and we still receive complaints, the solution is zero tolerance.
