Roswell parks operate from sunrise to sunset (or as posted at each park). Being in a park after closing hours is a misdemeanor under the parks ordinance and is enforced by Roswell Police and Park Rangers.
Under Chapter 14 (Parks, Recreation & Cultural Affairs), Roswell parks have established hours - generally sunrise to sunset for passive parks, with later closing for parks with lighted athletic facilities or special events. Specific hours are posted at each park entrance. Being in a park after hours without a permit is a misdemeanor; common violations include teenagers gathering after dark and adults using park trails after closing. Park Rangers and Roswell Police share enforcement. Park alcohol restrictions are independent of curfew (see alcohol/parks rules).
Being in a park after posted closing hours is a misdemeanor under Roswell Code Chapter 14 punishable by fines up to $1,000 and/or six months in jail under the city's general penalty clause. First offenses are typically warnings.
