The City Manager, or a designee thereof (“City Manager” hereinafter in this chapter), may close any park, trail or recreational facility, or any portion thereof, to the public, when deemed necessary to protect the public health and safety, or for the purpose of repair or maintenance, restoration of plant life, or protection of animal habitat, or when usage would otherwise be damaging to the park, trail or recreational facility. When it is deemed necessary to temporarily close a park, trail or recreational facility, the City Manager shall cause signs or notices to be placed giving notice that such park, trail or recreational facility is closed and entry is unlawful. Whenever any such sign has been so posted, it shall be unlawful for any person or persons to enter or be within or upon such park, trail or recreational facility, or closed portion thereof.
