Fort Bend County parks operate under set hours established by Commissioners Court, prohibiting entry after sunset or posted closing time except for permitted activities.
Fort Bend County Parks, including Brazos Bend support areas, Jones Creek Ranch, Cullinan Park (jointly operated), and precinct parks, are generally open from sunrise to sunset or to a specifically posted closing time. After-hours entry is prohibited unless covered by a special use permit, reservation, or organized event. Camping is restricted to designated parks with permits. Alcohol, glass containers, and unleashed pets are also restricted. Park rangers and county constables enforce closing hours and trespass complaints.
Remaining in a closed park is criminal trespass under Texas Penal Code 30.05, a Class B misdemeanor with fines up to $2,000 and jail time up to 180 days.
