Full Breakdown

Solano County's park rules are codified in Chapter 19 (Parks, Recreation and Other Public Property) and apply to county parks such as Lake Solano Park. Rather than fixing a single curfew time, Section 19-70 authorizes the parks division to close, restrict, or set hours for any park or facility, and day-use hours are posted at each park by the parks division. Camping without a valid permit is prohibited (Section 19-220), and overnight use is limited to designated camping areas - so staying in a day-use area after posted closing is not allowed.

, during which no excessive noise is allowed. Camping permits are limited to 14 days with a mandatory 30-day out period, and no one under 18 may camp without a parent or guardian. Section 19-160 lists prohibited acts (litter, fires outside designated areas, fireworks, amplified noise without a permit, and similar). Because exact open/close times are posted per park and seasonally adjusted, check current posted hours or contact Solano County Parks before visiting.

Violations & Fines

Remaining in a day-use park after posted closing, camping without a permit or outside designated areas, arriving to camp after 9 p.m. at Lake Solano, or violating quiet hours can result in citations and removal under Chapter 19.
