Henderson Municipal Code § 2.27.030(A) fixes hours for all city-owned parks, recreation facilities and trails: parks open 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. daily, lit trails 5:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m., and unlit trails run dawn to dusk. The parks and recreation director can extend or vary these hours through posted signage or by approving a park event permit under subsection C.
