Closures
Temporary Closure Notices
BB Clarke Beach - temporary closure due to maintenance issues. (May 22, 2026)
Warner Park Boat Launch - Restrooms are closed due to maintenance issues. Portable units are onsite. Initial findings of the boat launch building found extensive issues and this project will be managed by City Engineering. (November 2025)
Seasonal Closures: October - April
A hard freeze, when temperatures dropping to 28°F or below, can occur anytime starting in October. Due to this, staff must prepare by closing and winterizing restrooms and drinking fountains. This system-wide process takes weeks to complete. Additionally, we no longer have seasonal staff for regular cleaning.
NOTE: Portable toilets not identified on this page are most likely arranged by a user group, such as an athletic organization and may not be accessible. All portable restrooms identified on the page are arranged by Madison Parks and are ADA accessible.
