Union City prohibits entering or remaining in any public park, playground, plaza, or recreation area between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. under UCMC Chapter 12.28, unless different hours are posted at the park entrance.
Chapter 12.28 (Public Park and Recreation Areas) of the Union City Municipal Code makes it unlawful for any person to enter, loiter, or remain in any park building, plaza, promenade, playground, or recreation area between the hours of 10 p.m. and 6 a.m., except as otherwise posted at the entrance to a park. The 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. curfew applies citywide to public parks and recreation facilities. Posted signage at individual parks may set different hours, and reserved or permitted events may extend hours with city approval. The provision is enforced by city staff and police, and covers the developed recreation areas managed by the city.
Being in a city park or recreation area during curfew hours is a violation that can result in citation or removal, with penalties handled under the municipal code's general enforcement provisions.
