Full Breakdown
03 of the Parks and Recreation Facilities chapter lists hours of use for each named City park and applies those hours to all buildings and structures within or directly adjacent to the park. m. m. m. Wilderness Park's listing carries a parenthetical excluding "authorized campers," tying back to the Chapter 34 camping permit process. 04, which makes it unlawful to enter or engage in activity in a listed park outside its designated hours of use, except where signage authorizes otherwise or a City-authorized special event, program, class, or activity is underway for its permitted duration.
That section also carves out public sidewalks adjacent to a park and public streets or walkways used to traverse Czuleger, Lilienthal, Veterans, Aviation, or Alta Vista Parks without delay, so a pedestrian passing through on an adjoining public right-of-way is not automatically in violation. Both sections were adopted by Ordinance No. 3051, effective June 18, 2010, with the hours table itself last amended by Ordinance No. 3167, effective January 19, 2017.
Violations & Fines
Presence in a City park after its posted closing time is enforced by the Redondo Beach Police Department as an infraction under Chapter 35, distinct from a Chapter 34 camping citation, and applies to the park's buildings and adjacent structures as well as the open grounds.
