Summary
South Jordan closes its parks, trails, and open spaces overnight, opening them to the public only between 5:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m. each day.
Parks, trails, and open spaces are open to the public between the hours of five o'clock (5:00) A.M. and ten o'clock (10:00) P.M. The city manager or designee may permit a user during different hours by special permission.
Full Breakdown
South Jordan City Code § 12.16.050 sets park hours at five o'clock (5:00) A.M. to ten o'clock (10:00) P.M., closing the entire parks, trails, and open space system overnight. The city manager or a designee can grant special permission for use outside those hours, for example for an approved event or maintenance work, but the default rule applies citywide to every facility covered by Chapter 12.16. Being present after 10:00 P.M. without that permission is separately listed as 'after hours use,' a prohibited activity under § 12.16.040, so the curfew carries its own enforcement hook rather than functioning as a mere access guideline.
Violations & Fines
Being in a South Jordan park, trail, or open space before 5:00 A.M. or after 10:00 P.M. without special permission counts as 'after hours use' under § 12.16.040 and can draw a citation.
