Weber County, UT Curfew Laws: Park Curfew (2026)

Weber County Code Section 26-3-9, part of Chapter 26-3 (Restrictions Relating To The Use Of Pineview Reservoir And Surrounding Areas) under Title 26 Parks, states plainly that posted day use areas around the reservoir may not be occupied between 10:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m. The closure applies to the developed beach and picnic areas the county has posted with signage, including Anderson Cove, Middle Inlet and Cemetery Point day use areas named elsewhere in the chapter, and it runs alongside Causey Reservoir. The provision traces to Ordinance No. 2004-13, adopted June 1, 2004, and recodifies former Code of 1985 Section 18-3-9.

The nighttime closure sits inside a cluster of Chapter 26-3 restrictions the county enforces together at Pineview: no swimming, diving or fishing within 50 feet of public docks (Section 26-3-5); dogs barred from the Anderson Cove, Middle Inlet and Cemetery Point beaches (Section 26-3-6); glass products barred from all beach areas (Section 26-3-7); open fires barred except in Forest Service fire containment enclosures (Section 26-3-8); camping barred outside designated Forest Service campgrounds (Section 26-3-10); and alcoholic beverages barred everywhere around Pineview and Causey except designated overnight camping areas and marinas (Section 26-3-11, as amended by Ordinance No. 2017-19 in 2017). Deputies who find visitors in a posted day use area after 10:00 p.m. can cite them under Section 26-3-9 without needing to show any other violation occurred.

Section 26-3-12 sets a single penalty for the whole chapter: any violation of Chapter 26-3, including the after-hours closure, is a class C misdemeanor, Utah's lowest misdemeanor class, punishable under state law by up to 90 days in jail and a fine of up to $750.
