Lake Ozark Proposes Teen Curfew on Bagnell Strip | Jefferson City News

Lake Ozark is pushing for a teen curfew on the Bagnell Dam Strip, banning anyone under 18 from public areas after 10 p.m. to tackle safety risks, property damage, and unruly behavior linked to late-night teen activity—especially with alcohol nearby. Business owners say the chaos makes their jobs harder and endangers everyone, citing dangerous acts like rooftop climbing. Parents could face $500 fines if their teens break the rule, though exceptions exist for residents, supervised teens, or workers. First-time violators get a warning. The city board will vote again on July 28—approval could mean a safer, more controlled night scene after 10 p.m. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
