I don't think it's unusual for certain activity to be prohibited on *public land* that might be allowed on private property.
In all likelihood, the rationale is that public property is public property,i.e. owned by every citizen. If one person takes public property for his/her own benefit, it is a form of theft from the citizenry at large.
I would hope that the OP, as a police officer, understands as much, and will set a good example by obeying the law as well as enforcing it.
