    There appears to be no exemption for childless households in the amendment. We live in a townhouse with no resident or visiting children. Does this mean we can’t sleep with windows open all the way on hot summer days? I can’t find any specific information on the net.

    Exemptions would make no sense since you can’t guarantee that no children will ever live in or visit the lot.  However, some of the approved locks are two-stage and allow windows to be opened wide by adults who can master the mechanism.
