Occupy Sacramento had contended that §12.72.090 was " either overbroad or under-inclusive and is not
'narrowly tailored' because it denies
the public an important venue for
free speech and assembly during a
substantial part of the night. " Moreover, Occupy Sacramento claimed
" §12.72.090 does not advance a legitimate government interest. " Further,
Occupy Sacramento argued " a continuous around-the-clock presence in the
park for an indeterminate period of
time is a necessity of participation for
some Occupy Sacramento protesters. "
In the opinion of the federal district court, the purpose of §12.72.090
was consistent with the text of the
City Code " to promote the safety,
comfort, and convenience of the public's use and enjoyment of any park. "
Specifically, the court noted that the
text of the law contained " numerous
limitations and prohibitions on specified activities in the parks for health
and safety reasons. " In addition, the
court found a 1981 staff report had
established the 1981 amendments to
§12.72.090 were " to better accommodate use and to mitigate interference
with the general public's enjoyment
of park facilities and buildings. "
In particular, the federal district
court found " the Parks Director's
statement of the purpose for the
park use regulations to be persuasive
and compelling " :
[The purpose of the challenged
City's park use regulations were] to
ensure the ability of the general public to enjoy the park facilities, to ensure the viability and maintenance of
those facilities, to protect the public's
health, safety and welfare, and to protect the City's parks and public property from overuse and unsanitary
conditions, including but not limited
to camping and overnight sleeping

activities in City parks not specifically
designed for those purposes.
On the other hand, the federal district court found Occupy Sacramento's argument that " §12.72.090 is
either over-broad or under-inclusive

and is not narrowly tailored is not
compelling. " In so doing, the court
noted that " [t]he ordinance is limited to City parks and limited to five or
six hours a day between the hours of
11:00 p.m. and 5:00 a.m. " :
