All city parks, playgrounds, and recreation areas close at 11:00 PM and reopen at 6:00 AM unless specific parks have different posted hours. The city may grant special event permits that extend park hours for organized events. Camping and overnight stays in parks are prohibited except in designated areas with permits. Well-lit sports facilities and trails may have extended hours when scheduled activities are occurring. Vehicles remaining in park parking lots after closing may be towed.
