§ 50-104. Occupation of reserved shelter houses.

(a)

It shall be unlawful for any person to occupy, use or attempt to control the occupation and use of any shelter house under the control of the board of parks and recreation commissioners after being notified or having knowledge that a written reservation for the exclusive use of the shelter house for a definite and limited period for park and recreational purposes has been issued by the parks and recreation department; and no person shall continue to use, occupy or attempt to control any such shelter house without such written reservation when informed that such reservation has been issued. It shall be the duty of such person to vacate any such shelter house promptly after being informed of its reserved status, or be subject to arrest for violation of this section. The provisions of this subsection are not intended to prohibit the free and unrestricted use of shelter houses under the supervision or control of the board of parks and recreation commissioners by any and all persons without reservations so long as no such reservations have been previously issued by the parks and recreation department.

(b)

Any person who shall violate any of the provisions of this section shall be deemed guilty of an ordinance violation, and upon conviction shall be punished by a fine of not less than $5.00 and not more than $50.00, or by imprisonment in the municipal correctional institution for not less than one day and not more than 30 days, or by both such fine and imprisonment.
