Would one of these signs give you pause?

I initially grabbed a couple of quick pics with an intention to ask if they would apply to an entire city park or only the posted wooded area [and not the paved trail through it.] But after having reading the signs again, they are a non-issue. I am still posting though as an example of signs we can come across.

I ran into these signs along a city park trail and initially worried about the mention of USACE:

The first sign makes no mention of ownership. However, the second clearly sates "...owned by the City of..." I also searched the Facility List for Recreation.gov and found no mention of the park name. Since it is not CoE land, no longer a concen.

Unless I missed it, the wooden sign is all that is visible if you approach from the east [with multiple postings of the metal sign from the west.] With only the information on the wooden sign, it reads to me like a possibility of the land being CoE and off limits. No official looking USACE sign with the castles on it though. Would anyone else give the pictured wooden sign a second thought if you came across it unexpectedly?

No. The signs in and of themselves would not give me pause as written. However, I would be very interested in reading the regs that allow the COE to make restrictive designations of city owned property.

I would not have carried past the wood sign without further investigation/information since ACE lands are still, inexplicably, off limits.
I would likely have carried past the second sign.
