Juvenile curfew on city council agenda
The Friona city council will meet in regular session Monday July 14 at 6:30 p.m. in council chambers at 619 Main St. All council meetings are open to the public.
The meeting will open with two public hearings as advertised in this Friona Star. One hearing will be to hear comments on the renewal of the juvenile curfew ordinance. The other hearing is for comments on the annual drinking water quality report. Members of the public will have time to comment on the two topics.
