Neighborhood Parks

Neighborhood Parks - Please note picnic areas in neighborhood parks are non- reservable. They are available on a first-come, first-served basis only. (Groups of more than 40 or groups bringing in equipment, i.e. portable toilets, etc., need to contact the Parks and Recreation Office (831)420-5270 to determine whether a permit is needed. There are no fees for the permit.) All park users (including permit holders) are subject to the first-come, first-served rule for picnic areas. In order to claim a picnic area, users must have someone on site to hold the area (leaving belongings to "save" an area is not permitted).
