Tigard, OR Curfew Laws: Park Curfew (2026)

Tigard's park rules sit in TMC Chapter 7.52 (Park Property Use) and TMC Chapter 7.58 (Rules of Conduct on City Property). Chapter 7.52 governs equal access to public parks and prohibits walking, riding, or driving in portions of a park that are closed to public travel or behind barriers. Specific operating hours are not codified for each park; instead, the Public Works Director sets and posts hours and closures by park. Chapter 7.58 covers conduct on all city property, including parks, and authorizes exclusion from city property as a remedy for violations. Smoking is prohibited in all parks, fires are limited to designated barbecue stands or fireplaces, and sales or vending require an approved special-event permit, facility rental, or director's authorization. For minors specifically, the parks are explicitly listed as a public place where the juvenile curfew applies under TMC Chapter 7.44 — under 14 must be out by 9:15 p.m. (10:15 p.m. before non-school days), and 14-17 by 10:15 p.m. (midnight before non-school days), regardless of any later posted park-closing time. The general noise nuisance rule at TMC 6.02 Article V also applies to parks: sound that is unnecessarily loud at 100 feet within a park, street, or other public place is prohibited at any hour. Violations of Chapter 7.52 are punishable by a fine of up to $500.
