Full Notification

In our continuing effort to prevent further spread of COVID-19, access to Marina Park and Chabot Park will be restricted this Memorial Holiday weekend from Friday (05/22/2020) at dusk until Tuesday morning (5/26/2020).  While the city recognizes that the Memorial Holiday weekend is a time when many residents and visitors to San Leandro may seek to use these parks to honor the men and women who’ve died while serving in the United States Armed Forces, these changes are necessitated to protect the public safety of our community.  

While you’ll be able to enjoy some healthy outdoor activities at our parks, such as exercise and walking as long as social distancing measures are in effect, the use of all barbecues, picnic tables, play structures, and other park amenities associated with group activities will be closed to the public.  Regular police patrols, signage, temporary traffic barricades, and the Chabot Park gate closure, will serve as reminders of these necessary restrictions. 

In addition, vehicle parking will be prohibited on Monarch Bay Drive and at the following locations:

• San Leandro Marina Boat Launch parking lot
• Marina Park parking lots
• Monarch Bay Drive south of Fairway Drive
• Chabot Park parking areas

The City of San Leandro will continue to work with the community to manage the ongoing public health emergency, and asks that residents continue following public health guidelines, including:

• Refrain from using parks or trails if you are feeling ill, or exhibiting symptoms of COVID-19
• Follow CDC guidance on personal hygiene prior to and during use of parks or trails
• Prepare for limited access to public restrooms, soap dispensers, or water fountains
• While on trails, warn other users of their presence as they pass, and step aside to let others pass
• Follow CDC guidance while using public spaces to avoid social gatherings, including outdoor picnicking, contact sports and other group activities
• Observe CDC minimum recommended social or physical distancing of six feet from other individuals at all times. If this is not possible, find an alternate location or depart that space.
• Consult local and state ordinances and guidelines for the most up-to-date recommendations on park and trail use
• For additional information about local response to the coronavirus, visit the Alameda County Department of Public Health and the California Department of Public Health websites.
