North Miami city parks operate under a standard curfew from sunset to sunrise under the city's parks and recreation ordinances. No person may remain in a city park after closing hours unless participating in a city-authorized event or program. Specific parks may have extended hours posted at their entrances for lighted athletic facilities or special events. Oleta River State Park, the largest urban park in Florida located within North Miami's boundaries, is managed by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection and operates on its own schedule, typically 8:00 AM to sunset daily, with extended hours for camping guests. The park charges an entrance fee. City playground areas and recreational facilities follow posted hours which may vary by season. The North Miami Police Department patrols parks and enforces curfew hours. Persons found in parks after hours without authorization are subject to trespassing warnings and citations. Youth programs and organized sports leagues may operate during extended hours with proper city permits. Contact Parks and Recreation at (305) 895-9840 or NMPD at (305) 891-0294.
Remaining in a city park after curfew is a trespassing violation subject to warnings, citations, and fines. Repeat offenders may face arrest under Florida trespassing law (FL Statute 810.09). Unauthorized entry into Oleta River State Park after hours violates state park rules and may result in fines. Vandalism or property damage carries additional criminal charges.
