Laguna Niguel regulates parks under LNMC Title 13, and a separate minors' curfew is set in Title 11, Division 6, Article 1 (Section 11-6-1). City parks are day-use, and remaining after posted closing hours is enforced by the Orange County Sheriff, which provides police services to the city.
Park use in Laguna Niguel is governed by the Parks and Recreation Facilities provisions of LNMC Title 13, and the citywide minors' curfew appears in Title 11, Division 6 (Minors), Article 1, at Section 11-6-1. City parks are day-use facilities with posted opening and closing hours, and remaining after those hours is unlawful; the exact closing times and curfew hours appear in the code text and on park signage, and are not restated here to avoid misquoting them. Enforcement is by the Orange County Sheriff's Department, which contracts to police Laguna Niguel, plus Code Compliance. Several large parks, including Laguna Niguel Regional Park, are owned by the County of Orange (OC Parks) and follow separate county hours.
Remaining in a city park after posted closing hours, or a minor violating the Title 11 Division 6 curfew, can result in a citation from the Orange County Sheriff or city Code Compliance. Penalties follow the general municipal-code enforcement provisions.
