MAXIMIZING PUBLIC ACCESS TO CITY PARKS
The purpose of this policy is to maximize access for the general public to the parks of
the City of Newport Beach. As steward of the coastal parks and beaches, the City
Council establishes the following guidelines for reserved use of those City parks in high
traffic areas:
A. Reservations for the use of Inspiration Point, Lookout Point, and Peninsula Park
shall be permitted only during the non -peak tourist season, specifically the
period after the Labor Day weekend in September to, but not including,
Memorial Day weekend in May:
B. Groups of more than 20 attendees or participants may not reserve the following
view parks at any time:
Ensign View Park
Galaxy View Park
Inspiration Point
Lookout Point
C. Reservations for use of City park areas can only be made through the City, with
payment fees established by resolution of the City Council.
D. The City of Newport Beach will undertake a program of education for the public
of the rules and regulations for the use of all City parks, especially those of high
use and during the peak summer season. This may be undertaken with a non -
code enforcement position of a "Park Ambassador."
E. Exceptions to this policy shall only be events co- sponsored by the City of
Newport Beach, such as the Corona del Mar 5K Race, and for events at Peninsula
Park or Galaxy View Park approved through the Special Event Permit process.
