L.A. County Parks to Close
L.A. County will close park locations as a result of the current state of emergency impacting the county.

The following park locations will close at 4 p.m. Monday:

* local, community & regional parks

* golf courses

* trails

* community gardens

Botanic gardens (Arboretum, Descanso, and South Coast Botanic Gardens) will close at 5 p.m. Monday.

These closures are to ensure the safe and timely departure of all guests and staff.

“To protect against any further devastation, @LACoSheriff implemented another curfew from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m.,” Barger tweeted Monday afternoon. “With COVID-19 fresh in our minds, we see that staying home can save lives. Life is precious — and we must do everything we can to protect one another.”

“Earlier today, the City of Glendale erroneously sent out a Wireless Emergency Alert (WEA) alert with information about their local curfew that went to all residents in the County of Los Angeles — not just Glendale residents,” county officials reported late Monday afternoon. “We regret any confusion this may have caused.”
