Introduction
Washington Manor Park is a significant community asset, serving as one of just three community parks in the City of San Leandro. Beloved by both residents and visitors of all ages, the park offers diverse programs including spaces for play, picnicking, and walking. It is also home to the San Leandro Family Aquatic Center, one of the city’s three public aquatic facilities.
Despite its popularity the park leaves room for improvement to be able to function at its full potential as a Community Park, by improving the site layout, accessibility, amenities, and the overall park experience. The Site-specific Master Plan establishes a vision for the future, that is built on enhancing the park’s existing strengths while introducing new experiences to better meet community needs and priorities outlined in the Recreation and Parks Master Plan 2025.
The Washington Manor Site-specific Master Plan serves as an appendix to the Recreation and Parks Master Plan 2025, and includes the following sections:
• Key challenges and Opportunities based on existing conditions and assessment. • Overview of community input specific to Washington Manor Park and in relation to the citywide park system. • Conceptual site plan identifying improvements, priorities, phasing, maintenance needs, estimated cost, and funding.
Existing Conditions
Assessment
01. SITE OVERVIEW
In Spring 2024, the planning and design team conducted a comprehensive evaluation of Washington Manor Park through four key lenses: access and connectivity, functionality, condition, and comfort and sense of safety. The key takeaways from this analysis were as follows:
DIVERSE AMENITIES
The park already features an aquatic center, community
center, tennis courts, sport courts, and picnic spaces, providing a strong foundation for further enhancements.
AGING INFRASTRUCTURE
Cracked asphalt at the entry, moldy/damaged restroom
exteriors, and general wear on play and rec amenities
indicate the need for renovation.
SHADED AREAS
Many mature trees provide natural shade throughout the
park, making it comfortable for visitors. Shade structures could further improve usability.
LACK PARK ACCESS & VISIBILITY
The park’s entrances are not well-defined, and minimal
signage makes it difficult for newcomers to locate entry points.
Additionally, existing parking in insufficient for current park needs.
LOW EVIDENCE OF VANDALISM & MISUSE
The park has minimal signs of graffiti, vandalism, or
derelict features, meaning investments in upgrades are
less likely to suffer from damage.
LIMITED PARKING AVAILABILITY
Existing parking is insufficient, which could hinder
increased visitation unless addressed.
LARGE OPEN ENTRY SPACE
The spacious entry area provides an opportunity for new programming, activation, or community gathering spaces.
INCONSISTENT ACTIVATION
Amenities are grouped oddly at the entrance, leading
to uneven activation across the park and potentially
confusing navigation.
Strengths Weaknesses

02. Community
Feedback
The development of the San Leandro Recreation
and Parks Master Plan involved an extensive public
engagement process, including pop-up events, focus
groups, three workshops, a statistically valid survey,
and more. Much of the gathered information focused
on the San Leandro Recreation & Park System as a
whole, addressing community-wide needs for parks.
The planning and design team carefully analyzed these
insights to identify specific improvements to Washington Manor Park that would most effectively address
residents’ needs.
As illustrated in Figure 2.1, the Master Plan identified nine key community priorities. Implementing the
Concept Plan will help address three of these priorities:
expanding amenities, improving access to parks, and
enhancing comfort and environmental sustainability.
Additionally, the Recreation & Parks Master Plan’s
statistically valid survey (see Figure 2.2) highlighted key park amenity priorities. High priorities such as an expanded walking/jogging track, shade structures,
picnic areas, natural open space, play ground
equipment, and off-leash dog area are incorporated
into the Washington Manor Concept Plan.

Washington Manor Site Specific Plan | 10 DRAFT DRAFT 11 | Community Feedback In addition to gathering general input for San Leandro’s park system, a visioning workshop was held on January 27, 2024 and September 14, 2024, to engage community members in shaping the future of Washington Manor Park.
Approximately 52 San Leandro residents actively participated, sharing their experiences and aspirations for the park.
The following key takeaways have been carefully considered in the park design.
Additionally, another workshop for the Recreation & Parks Master Plan was held on September 14, 2024, at the Moon Festival, where approximately 50 residents provided feedback on Washington Manor Park’s design and amenities.
SITE-SPECIFIC FEEDBACK
Key Takeaways:
Residents love Washington Manor Park for
its trees, open spaces, and variety of
recreational activities, including swimming,
walking, sports, and social gatherings.
Many existing amenities are valued but need
improvements, such as playground updates,
resurfaced basketball courts, better
drainage on pickleball courts, and expanded
pool facilities.
Safety, accessibility, and comfort are key

03. Concept Plan
Based on the results from the Visioning Workshop and Site Analysis, the planning team developed the following design principles to set the foundation for the final design:
ENHANCED LOOP TRAIL: Enhance the experience of the loop trail, by creating secondary paths with additional programming (seating, gathering, etc.).
ORIENTING ZONES: Organize the site by zones, to provide orientation, organization, and unique characteristics to the site.
ACTIVE TO PASSIVE GRADIENT: Create a gradient of active to passive experiences and amenities, so that the more active area is near Zelma Street and that the more passive area is near the residential cul da sacs.
URBAN BIODIVERSITY LOOP: Create new habitats and complement existing vegetation. Diversify planting, by selecting plants which offer habitat, educational, or environmental value. Replace any trees or planting in poor condition.

comprehensive vision for enhancing Washington Manor
Park by integrating community priorities, sustainability, and accessibility improvements. The concept plan
reimagines the park’s layout through distinct zones
that balance active and passive recreation, improved
connectivity, and new amenities tailored to diverse
user needs. Key design elements include an expanded
loop trail, a destination play area, upgraded sports
facilities, and shaded gathering spaces, all aimed at
fostering greater community usability. Native plantings and habitat restoration create a more resilient park
ecosystem, support local biodiversity, and offer
educational opportunities for visitors to learn about
sustainable landscapes. The design aligns with the
broader community vision established in the San
Leandro Recreation & Parks Master Plan, positioning
Washington Manor Park to be a vibrant and inclusive
community asset.

MAINTENANCE MODES AND STANDARDS
Regular maintenance requires unit-based quantification
for most major resource requirements and provides
the methods for projecting future resource needs.
The City’s maintenance efforts for the renovated
Washington Manor Park will be expansive and will
need to address diverse aspects of maintaining a
signature park to preserve the integrity of public assets and their meaningful use. The prevailing objectives
of a standards-based park maintenance program are
presented below but not in order of importance:
It is recommended that all park maintenance agencies
adopt a system of parks maintenance levels wherein
functions are organized into a tiered structure with three different levels of service. These levels are referred
to as maintenance modes, and each has a unique
standard that dictates routine maintenance tasks and
their frequency. The appropriate maintenance mode
is assigned to each park or site, which creates a
framework for organizing and scheduling tasks and
responsibilities at each location. A description of each of the maintenance modes is provided below:
Many of the objectives assigned to the park
maintenance team will extend beyond the traditional
responsibilities of park maintenance employees.
Maintain and improve the sites, grounds,
facilities, and structures of Washington Manor
Park to provide optimal and enjoyable use.
Provide landscaping and general maintenance
for a multitude of amenities, including but not
limited to, landscaped beds and turf, open
spaces, urban forests, synthetic turf athletic
fields, picnicking areas, playgrounds, and park
buildings and structures.
Protect and preserve the value of Washington
Manor Park’s assets so that long-term
maintenance costs are minimal due to
extending the service life of those assets.
MAINTENANCE MODE/ LEVEL 1
Maintenance Mode/Level 1 (Mode/Level 1) applies
to parks or sites that require the greatest level of
maintenance standard in the system. These parks or sites are often revenue producing facilities, such as the athletic fields, where the quality and level of maintenance has
a direct impact on the park facility’s ability to maximize revenue generation.
MAINTENANCE MODE/ LEVEL 2
Maintenance Mode/Level 2 (Mode/Level 2) applies
to parks or sites that require a moderate level of effort and maintenance standards in the system. These include
developed and undeveloped parks with amenities that
are heavily used such as trails, community and pocket
parks, and special-use facilities found in the City’s parks system.
MAINTENANCE MODE/ LEVEL 3
Maintenance Mode/Level 3 (Mode/Level 3) applies
to parks or sites that require a nominal level of effort and maintenance standards in the system. These generally
include undeveloped parks with minimal amenities.
The Consulting Team is recommending that
Washington Manor Park be maintained using
a combination of Level 1/Level 2 Maintenance
Mode Standards.
Washington Manor Site Specific Plan | 28 DRAFT DRAFT 29 | Operations & Funding Financial & Staffing Plan
STAFFING MODEL FINANCIAL MODEL
Currently, Washington Manor Park is maintained by
the Parks Maintenance Division and no staff members
allocate 100% of their time at Washington Manor
Park. The amount of time they spend managing and
maintaining Washington Manor Park depends upon the
activity level on any given week.
To manage and maintain a renovated Washington
Manor Park in alignment with the maintenance
standards as recommended, the three primary goals will
be to:
The Consultant Team utilized the following set of
assumptions to create a financial model for the redevelopment of the Washington Manor Park (not including the new Aquatic Center):
• Primary programs and services will be:
• Picnic reservations – 2 sites with capacity of
50. • Athletic field reservations.
• Enrichment programming at new recreation
facility.
• Pickleball and tennis courts are available at no
cost on a first-served, first-served basis.
• 3.625 full-time employee equivalents will be
required for the operation of the park.
• Annual maintenance cost of $30,000 per acre for
a community park maintained at Level 1/Level 2
standards.
• Third-party contractor will be responsible for
critical/hazardous tree maintenance.
• Implement a standards-based maintenance
program. This effort will ensure a high quality and
consistent experience for visitors to Washington
Manor Park.
• Deliver a high level of customer service that is
necessary to facilitate the reservation and utilization of athletic fields, picnic shelters, special event
areas, amphitheater, etc.

TOTAL FTE 3.625 6,380
• Develop recreation opportunities for visitors to
Washington Manor Park.
Best practice staffing level alignment:
• Level 1/Level 2 Park Maintenance Standard Staffing:
Best practice ratio of FTE per park acres maintained
is 1 FTE : 8-10 acres.
• Level 1/Level 2 Recreation Facility Maintenance
Standard:
1. Custodial Services – 1 FTE per 28,000 square
feet
2. Building Maintenance Services – 1 FTE per
35,000 square feet.
• Recreation Programming – 1 FTE per 15,000-17,000
