Local Law P corrects a 2021 law that courts found unconstitutionally vague by spelling out employee rights and procedures. The proposed youth safety pilot remained under discussion, with unresolved questions about emergency curfews, staffing, funding, supervision, complaint handling, and reporting. The pilot would apply from 9:00 PM to 6:00 AM on weekends, according to the discussion, but no committee vote on the ordinance was recorded.
