The McBee Town Council approved the First Reading of an ordinance regarding curfews during its Oct. 7 meeting. Mayor Glenn Odom moved for first-reading approval and Councilman Robbie Liles seconded; the mayor opened the floor for public comment before the council closed discussion and proceeded with the ordinance reading.
Two members of the public spoke. Bea Bolton said she "doesn't see anyone walking down the street at night, but she is not out at that time," while Willie Mae Roary said she "sees people walking down the sidewalks all the time at night." Council did not record further debate in the transcript after the public-comment period. The ordinance remains at first-reading status pending subsequent council action.
