The City Council Committee on Public Safety on Tuesday will consider an ordinance hiking fines for animal cruelty, a measure to enhance penalties for minors that violate curfew and engage in other disruptive, destructive and illegal behavior, while seeking to also hold parents accountable, and a measure to enhance penalties for behavior that disturbs the peace where an offender conceals their identity. 

The public safety committee will meet at 10:30 a.m. in council chambers.
