ABSTRACT <br /> <br />The Master Plan for McKinley Park was generated by LandUse, Environmental & Urban <br />Planning Consultants/Landscape Architects, at the request of the City of Pleasanton. <br />McKinley Park is one of several parks presently under renovation or construction under <br />the Open Space policy of the Pleasanton General Plan. <br /> <br />McKinley Park is an existing 4-acre park located close to downtown Pleasanton. Originally, <br />the site housed water tanks for the City of Pleasanton. With its natural grasses and <br />trees, the site became an informal park. <br /> <br />The recommendations included are based on the opinions expressed by neighbors of the <br />park, the direction given by the Parks and Recreation Commission, and the needs and <br />requirements of the City of Pleasanton as expressed in numerous meetings with members <br />of the City Staff. <br /> <br />Throughout the process of preparing this report, it has been clear that there is widespread <br />agreement among those involved regarding the low level of improvements desired at the <br />park. Accordingly, the major recommendation of the Plan is to leave the park substantially <br />as it is. The other recommendations include construction of a fence at the site perimeter, <br />construction of a small parking area, removal of dead trees, grading flat areas to drain, <br />and seeding bare-ground areas. <br /> <br /> <br />
