No Council action is required. <br />BACKGROUND <br />Farrelly Pool is located at Roosevelt Elementary School, accessed off of Dowling Avenue and <br />Gill Lane, on property owned by the San Leandro Unified School District. The pool was <br />originally constructed in 1940 and is operated seasonally by the City for swim lessons, open <br />swim, and private party rentals. <br />Maintenance and Use agreements between the District and the City date back to 1975, when <br />a cost-sharing agreement for improvements was entered into for the “Farrelly Community <br />Center/Farrelly Complex.” In 1987, the District and City entered into a 21-year lease <br />agreement where the City paid the District $1 per annum and was fully responsible for <br />maintenance and operation of the community recreation building and pool complex. <br />The City owns one pool facility, the San Leandro Family Aquatic Center (SLFAC), constructed <br />in 2005, and located in Washington Manor Park. Prior to the construction of this facility, the <br />City offered programming at the San Leandro High School pools (and maintained them) until <br />the age of those structures warranted discontinuation of use. Through long-standing <br />Maintenance and Use agreements, the City has programming at the Boys & Girls Club <br />(Marina Boulevard/San Leandro Boulevard), and Farrelly Pool. The SLFAC is the smallest of <br />the three pools, with a capacity of 89,000 gallons; the Boys & Girls Club pool, which is <br />indoors, has a capacity of 120,000 gallons; and Farrelly Pool is the largest at 160,000 gallons. <br />Both the SLFAC and Farrelly pools are operated seasonallyand the Boys & Girls Club pool <br />operates year-round. <br />Page 1 City of San Leandro Printed on 6/1/2016
