Tustin, CA Curfew Laws: Park Curfew (2026)

Tustin City Code § 7111 sets the default closure window for every City park and playground: it is unlawful for any person to go on, be in, loiter or remain in, on, within or upon any park or playground of the City of Tustin between the hours of 10:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m., or during any other period the City Council has designated by resolution or minute order as closed. The section allows an exception through special permits to occupy and use particular parks and playgrounds during closed hours, issued by the City Administrator under the procedures in the companion permit section, § 7113.

Subsection b requires that signs stating the hours a facility is closed be posted at that facility, so the closure is enforceable only where posted. The ordinance dates to Ord. No. 666. It works alongside § 7110, an older, narrower rule that bars anyone from the North Tustin Parkette (Santa Clara Parkette) except children under 13, an accompanying adult, or City personnel, and § 7112, which separately lists activities barred at any park or playground at any hour, including fireworks, narcotics, unpermitted alcohol, gambling, firearms and weapons, littering, and smoking or cannabis use.

Because § 7111 does not state its own fine, a violation is enforced as a Code violation under the general penalty provision at § 1121.
