The City of San Leandro is currently in the design stage to resurface the tennis courts at Heath Park and Washington Manor Park.
As of April 21st, at 10:35 p.m., the City of San Leandro will not enact a curfew. The basis of this decision is on the proactive work by the Police Department (intelligence gathering and enhanced physical presence), voluntary early closures of businesses, and residents choosing to stay home.
The City of San Leandro is embarking on the recruitment of a new Police Chief. As part of the preparation efforts, the City is seeking feedback the recruiters can use to help create the candidate profile, identify community members’ perspectives on priorities, and gain additional information that may be of interest to potential candidates.

#Ownvoices is a hashtag that started in 2015 to promote diverse authors and books. #Ownvoices specifically refers to books where the author and protagonist share a marginalized identity. It’s a usfeul tool to diversify your reading list, learn about new perspectives and perhaps find aspects of your own experiences in the pages of a book. Come and chat about any #ownvoices books you've read (any genre! any format!) or drop by and get some inspiration for your next read.
Check out our booklist for ideas!
This book club meets on Zoom. This virtual event is free. Register here!
Please note that this will be the last #ownvoices book club meeting for several months. We will announce the re-launch at a later time.
