(A) It is unlawful for any person or persons to congregate on any private lands because of, or participate in, any party or gathering of people from which noise emanates of a sufficient volume or of such nature as to disturb the peace, quiet or repose of other persons. Any owner or person in lawful possession or control of the private lands who has knowledge of the disturbance and fails to immediately abate the disturbance shall be guilty of a violation of this section.
(B) It is unlawful for any person or persons to congregate on any private lands of another because of, or participate in, any party or gathering of people in the absence of the owner of the private lands being present, without first having obtained written permission from the landowner or other person in lawful possession of the private lands. The written permission shall at all times be in the possession of one or more persons at the site of the congregation. The document containing the written permission must bear the signature of the landowner and date of the permitted use. Failure to display written permission upon request shall be considered prima facie evidence of an absence of permission from the owner.
(C) A violation of divisions (A) or (B) above shall give a peace officer the authority to order all persons present, other than persons identifying themselves as the owner or person in lawful possession or control of the land, to immediately disperse. Any person who shall refuse to leave after being ordered to do so by a peace officer shall be guilty of a violation of this section.
