Park Panel: Set Tubbs Hill Curfew

Item: Tubbs Hill group pans curfew plan: City panel: 11 p.m. limit would reduce vandalism /Tom Hasslinger, Coeur d’Alene Press

More Info: Moonlight treks across Tubbs Hill could become a thing of the past — or at least a ticketable offense — if the city of Coeur d’Alene decides to put a cap on park operating hours. However, the lakeside hill’s foundation doesn’t want the bad actions of a few late-night guests to impose a curfew on all Tubbs Hill visitors. Increased vandalism, fires, noise and otherwise bad behavior at night have steered the city’s Parks and Recreation Commission to suggest the City Council forbid people from hanging out at all city parks — not just Tubbs Hill — long after the sun goes down.

Question: Should the city of Coeur d’Alene impose an 11 p.m. curfew on Tubbs Hill, in an effort to reduce vandalism?
