Isherwood Park Temporary Closure Information

On Monday, November 3, 2025, Isherwood Park, located at Isherwood Way and Quarry Lakes Drive, will be temporarily closed to all visitors for park improvements and maintenance. The work will include vegetation removal and environmental remediation. The goal of this work is to improve fire safety, protect local waterways, and enhance accessibility for all visitors.

Park Closure Details

Park improvements and maintenance are expected to take place throughout the winter, after a full park closure on Friday, November 14, 2025. The closure will be conducted in a phased approach, closely coordinating with the relocation support being offered to those currently residing in the park.

Relocation Support

The City of Fremont recognizes this closure may be challenging for those currently residing in Isherwood Park and remains dedicated to providing relocation support, while working in partnership with the City of Union City, the Alameda County Water District, and East Bay Regional Parks. City staff, alongside partnering nonprofit service providers, will spend the next two months focused on outreach efforts, including securing and offering shelter resources and assisting with transitions into programs. The City is committed to maintaining continuous communication with those residing in the park regarding the closure and all available relocation options. Relocation efforts are being conducted in accordance with the City's standard municipal code, Section 12.20 Parks and Recreation Areas, which states that it is prohibited to 1) remain in the park from a half hour after sunset to sunrise of the following day and 2) camp, lodge, or remain overnight.

The City will continue to provide updates on the Isherwood Park closure and relocation efforts as they are available.
