A mid-summer change in Wildwood, as the popular shore town voted Wednesday to toughen the rules when it comes to teens.
Mayor Pete Byron walked the boardwalk just after the city commission voted to change Wildwood’s curfew from 1 a.m. to midnight for teens under the age of 18. He says, although there hasn’t been an increase in juvenile calls over the summer, the city wants to be proactive in light of recent problems in other shore towns.
"All we did was change it from 1 a.m. to midnight. That’s just being proactive," Mayor Byron stated. "But, we don’t want to go any less than midnight because then it starts effecting the local economy, piers and the businesses."
