Corona city parks are closed from sunset to sunrise unless specifically posted otherwise or used under a permit. Most neighborhood parks close at 10:00 PM, with violations enforced by Corona Police as trespassing infractions under Municipal Code Title 12.
Corona operates over 25 parks including Corona City Park, Skyline Park, Sierra Bella Park, and Butterfield Park. Each park posts its specific operating hours at the entrance. Standard hours are sunrise to 10:00 PM for active parks and sunrise to sunset for passive open spaces and trails. Lighted athletic fields may remain open until 10:00 PM during scheduled play. Skyline Drive trailheads and the South Hills area close at sunset due to wildlife concerns and fire risk in the WUI zone. After-hours use requires a special use permit from Corona Parks and Recreation. Violations include loitering, overnight camping, alcohol consumption, and use of motorized vehicles. First-time violators typically receive warnings, while repeat offenses result in citations carrying fines up to $500. The Corona Police Department enforces park curfews with periodic patrols, and homeless encampments are referred to the city's HOPE Team for outreach before enforcement.
Specific penalty amounts for this ordinance are not published in a publicly accessible fine schedule. Contact Corona code enforcement directly for current fines, enforcement procedures, and hearing options.
