Mesa Traffic and Parking Regulations
City of Mesa Park Rangers have the authority to issue parking citations, verbal warnings, written warnings, or criminal citations for city code violations in the City of Mesa, including but not limited to: parks, retention basins, sports complexes (baseball, soccer, softball, etc.), tennis centers, pools, libraries, developed and undeveloped city property, bike or multi-use paths, recreation centers, MLB spring training facilities and Mesa Cemetery. Additionally, Mesa Park Rangers have the same authority on special event areas such as city sponsored events. Additionally, Park Rangers do educational programs such as finishing clinics with Arizona Game and Fish, original programming like scorpion hunts, nature and wildlife education, special events with schools within Mesa Public Schools and Gilbert Public Schools.
Citations that are issued by the Mesa Park Rangers are filed with Mesa Municipal Court. Parking tickets are civil issues, through courtroom 101 (traffic division.) Criminal cases are handled through the municipal court and city prosecutor’s office. As defined by Arizona Revised Statute 13-707 , criminal cases are punishable upon conviction by up to a $2,500.00 fine, and/or 6 months in county jail for violations of park ordinances, which are class 1 misdemeanors. For information on a civil traffic or parking ticket, or a criminal complaint, you can find your case by clicking here 24/7, or calling (480) 644-2255 , Monday – Thursday 7:00 a.m.– 6 :00 p.m. Mesa City Code ordnances can be viewed by clicking on the link to the Mesa City Code above and reference the MCC (Mesa City Code) section number shown at the end of the paraphrased park rules on this page.
Please also note that per Mesa City Code, Park Rangers can confiscate and dispose of any materials, belongings or property that is abandoned for, or that the owner is not present for at any time. Additionally, also per Mesa City Code, Park Rangers can confiscate items used in the commission of a violation of Mesa City Code and/or Arizona Revised Statutes, to not be returned to a rightful owner until the completion of a criminal case, and by order of the presiding judge.
While we partner with Mesa Police Department and Mesa Fire Medical, we are first and foremost partners with our communities in and around all our city park facilities. Most of the Park Rangers are not only city employees, but residents as well, creating ownership within our parks. We cannot do this alone! We need your tips, information, and help!

FAQ about our Mesa dog parks
Are dog parks good for dogs?
It is important for dogs to have off leash exercise to sniff and run. But the free and open nature of public dog parks has drawbacks. There could be aggressive dogs, disease transmission and cleanliness issues. For this reason, many dog behaviorists discourage visiting public dog parks and recommend Sniffspot's private dog parks. Sniffspot private dog parks only allow one guest to book at a time and are not open to the public, which solves many of these issues.
Are dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Mesa area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 217 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 25 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
