City of San Leandro Parklet Program <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />2 <br /> <br /> <br />PARKLET GUIDELINES & RESPONSIBILITIES <br /> <br />Location: <br />1. Parklet locations must be on a City street. This excludes any California <br />State Routes such as East 14th Street, Doolittle Drive and Davis Street. <br /> <br />2. Parklets must be located on a street with a speed limit of 25 mph or less. <br /> <br />3. They may be allowed in white and green zones if the entity that originally <br />requested the white or green zone agrees to repurpose that curb area. <br /> <br />4. Proposed parklet sites must be located on a street that has parking lanes, <br />minimal cross slope and utilizes at least one parking space but not more <br />than two. <br /> <br />Design Parameters: <br />1. Parklet plans must be designed and stamped by a licensed architect or <br />civil engineer. <br /> <br />2. Adjacent to the roadway, a railing height of 42” minimum with openings <br />that do not allow larger than a 4” sphere to pass is required. A visible edge <br />to the parklet is required on all sides except for the sidewalk, which may <br />consist of planters, railing, or cabling. The edges should be visually <br />permeable or “see-through.” <br /> <br />3. Parklets are intended to be aesthetic improvements to the streetscape, <br />and materials will be required to be of high quality, durable, and attractive. <br /> <br />4. The width of the parklet must not extend beyond six (6) feet from the curb <br />line. <br /> <br />5. Safe hit posts and wheel stops, or approved equals, are required. <br /> <br />6. Access panels must be included in the walking surface in order to <br />maintain the gutter and area underneath the parklet and the design must <br />allow for drainage along the gutter to pass underneath the parklet.
