Summary
Logan City, Utah bars entry to every city park and city cemetery, including driving or sitting in a vehicle there, between 10:00 p.m. and 5:00 a.m. of any day. The only exceptions are city-sponsored activities, activities under a city permit, and pedestrians crossing a park on a regularly established walkway.
It is unlawful for any person to enter or be upon or to drive any vehicle upon or to be within any vehicle upon any city park or city cemetery between ten o’clock (10:00) p.m. and five o’clock (5:00) a.m. of any day, except when participating in or attending an activity sponsored by the city or allowed under a permit issued by the city, and except for pedestrians crossing a park on a regularly established walkway.
Full Breakdown
Logan Municipal Code § 12.24.010 makes it unlawful to enter or be upon any city park or city cemetery between ten o’clock (10:00) p.m. and five o’clock (5:00) a.m. of any day. The same ban covers driving a vehicle upon, or being within a vehicle in, a park or cemetery during those hours. The section applies to every day of the year and prints no weekend or summer carve-out. It was last amended by Ord. 20-16 on 7-21-2020.
Three exceptions are printed. A person participating in or attending an activity sponsored by the city is exempt. So is anyone acting under a permit issued by the city. And pedestrians crossing a park on a regularly established walkway are exempt, so a late walk along a marked path through a park is not a violation by itself.
The Logan skatepark runs on its own schedule under § 12.24.040(I): it is unlawful to skate there before dawn and after dusk, the facility is open to the public dawn to dusk unless otherwise posted, and the city can curtail the operating schedule for inclement weather, special events, unforeseeable circumstances or repairs. Organizing an event at the skatepark requires prior written approval from the director of parks and recreation or a designee (§ 12.24.040(H)).
Section 12.24.020 adds that where signs have been posted under the direction of the mayor on city owned or city leased property regulating walking, use of vehicles, parking, instructions as to animals or other regulatory information, it is unlawful to violate the sign. Camping in a park is a separate offense under § 12.24.050, with a thirty minute removal duty after a request from a city official.
Chapter 12.20 closes out Title 12: § 12.20.010 declares any person violating any provision of the title guilty of a misdemeanor.
Violations & Fines
Entering or staying in a Logan city park or cemetery between 10:00 p.m. and 5:00 a.m. without an exception is a misdemeanor under § 12.20.010, which covers every provision of Title 12. Skating in the skatepark before dawn or after dusk is an infraction subject to citation under § 12.24.040(K). Violating a posted regulatory sign on city property is also unlawful under § 12.24.020.
