No walking on the grass, no playing frisbee, no loud noises; HOA/condominium boards don't have the greatest reputation for implementing even-handed and just rules.
Not many HOA's would have the kind of resources that would enable them to enforce such rules on a permanent basis.
My place in Ottawa overlooks such a private/public use park (landscaped traffic circle, really) and it has never been a problem. In fact, a couple of benches were added a few years back by the HOA to enhance public use of the space.
