Meeting Date: 6/20/16
nl. CITY COMMENTS REGARDING GOVERNOR'S "BY RIGHT'' HOUSING PROPOSALS
Councilmember Colson stated that the Governor's housing proposal allows developers to include a minimal
amount of affordable housing in a project and in exchange bypass the community comment and review
period. She stated that in a city like Burlingame, the community prides itself on its ability to provide
^feedback
and input for projects occurring in the City limits. Accordingly, Councilmember Colson stated that
she felt the Govemor's proposal harmed the transparency that the City tries to achieve. She thanked staff for
drafting a letter that explained the City's opposition to the proposal and let the community know that they
could also write letters to the state legislature with their thoughts on the legislation.
Councilmember Brownrigg stated he liked the letter but had a couple of suggestions for how to improve the
letter. He stated that the following language should be added: "But indeed we believe that this proposal
which is clearly meant to combat "nimbyism" as a perceived obstacle to additional housing projects will
actually exacerbate community concem and make it much more difficult for Cities like ours to actually move
forward with such ambitions. In other words, this proposal will be counterproductive to our goals of
increasing the stock of affordable housing."
Councilmember Beach stated her agreement with her colleagues. She explained that it is important to not
circumnavigate the process. She discussed the current project the City is considering of Lot F and N and if
that should be included in the letter. CD Director Meeker stated that they could include this project.
Mayor Keighran discussed the amendments that are currently being discussed for the general plan. She
echoed the concem that the "by right" process would skirt the City's transparency by not allowing the
community to discuss housing projects.
Mayor Keighran opened the item up for public comment. No one spoke.
Councilmember Brownrigg made a motion to adopt the letter with suggested edits; seconded by
Councilmember Colson. The motion passed unanimously by voice vote; 4-0-l.

Schedule that would be effective starting July 5, 2016. She explained that staff with the help of consultants
completed a cost allocation plan and user fee study. She stated that staff presented their recommended
amendments to the Master Fee Schedule at the May 2nd City Council meeling. She stated that at the May 2nd
meeting, Council voiced their concern that some of the fees were increasing by more than 100%.
Accordlngly, after the May 2nd meeting staff created a worksheet to explain the increases in fees and limited
fee increases to a IOO%. As well, she explained that staff acted on Council's recommendation of adding
more tiers to the fees associated with condo developments.

Agenda Item 8a
Meeting Datez 6/20/t6
Councilmember Colson asked if most City fees were paid in advance. Finance Director Augustine explained
that most fees are paid in advance.
Councilmember Colson stated that field usage fees were calculated at the end of the season and then the
different organizations are billed. She stated that she would like field users to account for their residents and
nonresidents at the beginning of the season and pay their fees upfront. She added that if at the end of the
season there was a difference the City could roll over a credit or debit to the next season. City Manager
Goldman stated that she would have this topic brought to the Parks and Recreation Commission to discuss
and determine how best to bill field users.
Mayor Keighran opened the item up for public hearing. No one spoke.
Councilmember Colson made a motion to adopt Resolution Number 57-2016;' seconded by Councilmember
Beach. The motion passed unanimously by voice vote,4-0-1.
b. ADOPTION OF THE 2015 URBAN WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN AND THE
ASSOCIATED WATER SHORTAGE C GENCY PLAN FOR THE CITY OF
BURLINGAME
DPW Murtuza requested Council adopt Resolution Number 58-2016
DPW Murtuza reviewed the staff report stating that the Urban Water Management Planning Act requires
water suppliers to prepare or update their Urban Water Management Plans ("UWMP") and submit a
complete copy to the California Department of Water Resources every five years. Burlingame's last UWMP
was prepared in 2011, and therefore a revised UWMP is due by June 30,2016.
EKI's MattZuccapresented the highlights of the updated UWMP. He stated that the UWMP must include
both the City of Burlingame and Burlingame Hills (which is unincorporated). He explained that after
determining the area that the UWMP covers, EKI predicted the population and job size going forward to
2040. He stated that with this information, the UWMP was able to project the area's water consumption
levels. He also reviewed the City's past usage of water. He stated that while population is seen as steadily
increasing, the water consumption rates go up and down depending on the economy and droughts.
Councilmember Brownrigg asked if the data was broken down by industrial, govemment, residential, etc. so
that they would be able to monitor the effectiveness of some of the government's conservation efforts. Mr.
Zucca replied in the affirmative. He stated that the City had this data going back to the 1990s.
Mr. Zucca reviewed the projected water demands. He began by explaining the term passive conservation,
stating that this is when people replace their appliances with new energy and water efficient appliances. He
stated that this has helped the City stay below its supply guarantee from San Francisco of 1,909 MGY.
Councilmember Brownrigg asked if the term "water demand" only referred to potable water. Mr. Zucca
replied in the affirmative.
Mr. Zucca continued by explaining that the UWMP must document water to lower income households. He
stated that lower income is defined as 80% of the area's median income. Accordingly, the housing element
projected a need of 2,783 extremely and very low income units by 2020.

Agenda ltem 8a
Meeting Date: 6/20/A6
He discussed the need to plan for projected single dry years versus multiple dry years. He explained that
cities are required to develop a water shortage contingency plan ("WSCP"). The WSCP is considered a
standalone document and cin be modified by Council in the future without amending the UWMP. He
explained that under the WSCP, the City is required to show five stages of actions (with increasing water
reiuction rates). He explained that each stage shows what restrictions and prohibitions will be applied to
target different reduction rates.
Councilmember Beach asked if the City can incorporate future industry and housing projects that staff are
aware of in the UWMP so that the document has a longer shelf life. DPW Murtuza stated that in terms of
ensuring the City gets enough water from San Francisco, staff has been working with San Francisco and
BAWSCA to include upcoming projects.
Mayor Keighran discussed the amendments to the General Plan and asked if there was a way to calculate
what the Cily's future needs would be for water. She stated that she felt this information should be included
with the General Plan when they discuss rezoning. DPW Murtuza stated that currently the City is guaranteed
5.23 million gallons of water from San Francisco a day. He stated this guarantee is when the water levels are
normal however this will decrease if levels drop. DPW Murtuza said technically speaking the City could
incorporate how the water supply would handle rezones.
Mayor Keighran opened up the public hearing. No one spoke'
Councilmember Brownrigg made a motion to adopt Resolution Number 58-2016; seconded by
Councilmember Colson. The motion passed unanimously by voice vote, 4-0-l '
C. INTRODUCTION OF AN ORDINANCE AMENDING TITLE 25 OF THE BURLINGAME
MUNICIPAL CODE (ZONE CODE) RELATED TO COVERED PORCH FLOOR AREA
RATION GAR)EXEMPTIONS
At the beginning of this item, Councilmember Colson recused herself. She stated that she currently had a
project under review in Community Development that included a porch, and therefore she stated that it was
best that she recuse herself from this public hearing.
CDD Meeker presented the staff report introducing an Ordinance to amend Title 25 of the Burlingame
Municipal Code related to covered porch floor area ratio exemptions. He explained that at the May 16,2016
City Council meeting, Council discussed the proposed ordinance that would amend the floor area exemption
for covered porch floors from 100 feet to 200 feet. He reviewed Council's concern that the exemption
should only apply to street facing porches and not porches located on the rear of the building. Accordingly,
the proposed ordinance was amended so that it reads: "Covered porches or decks on the first floor totaling
two hundred (200) square feet or less, which face a street and are not located on the rear of the dwelling."
Mayor Keighran asked City Clerk Hassel-Shearer to read the title of the Ordinance.
Councilmember Brownrigg made a motion to waive further reading and introduce the Ordinance; seconded
by Councilmember Beach. The motion passed unanimously by voice vote, 3-0-2 (Councilmember Colson
had recused herself from this item and Vice Mayor Ortiz was absent).
Mayor Keighran opened the public hearing. No one spoke.

Finance Director Augustine presented the staff report requesting Council's approval of the allocation of
funding for community service organizations for fiscal year 2016-17. She explained that each
Councilmember was given a tabulation worksheet in order to make individual funding recommendations
The results were then tabulated resulting in the distribution of $45,000 between 20 organizations.
Mayor Keighran opened the item up for public comment. No one spoke.
Mayor Keighran stated that Council had decided at their last meeting there would be an additional one-time
funding to organizations whose focus was on the area's housing needs. She asked when this item would be
brought to the Council. City Manager Goldman stated that it would be on the June 20,2016 Meeting
Agenda.
Councilmember Beach discussed the fact that when she made her funding recommendations that she took
into consideration that a one-time additional payment funding of $45,000 would be given to organizations
whose focus is on the housing needs of the community.

professional Services Agreements for the management and facilitation of the El Camino Real Task Force
process. He explained that the'No Left Turn" signage was installed on El Camino Real for southbound
travel through the Floribunda Intersection. He stated that Caltrans has set up a process to measure the
successfulness of the signs.
DPW Murtuza explained that originally the Memorandum of Understanding stated that the pilot project
would be for 36 months. However, when the MOU was forwarded to Caltrans Headquarters in Sacramento,
they expressed concern that the 36 month period would extend beyond the timeline of the current program
funding. Accordingly, Caltrans proposed to reduce the duration of the pilot study to 18 months. He stated
that there were also minor clarifications as to the scope of work for the El Camino Real ("ECR") Task Force
DPW Murtuza stated that staff identified community members who are willing to serve on the ECR Task
Force. As well, staff negotiated with the consulting team of Hathaway Associates and Placeworks to manage
and facilitate the ECR Task Force. He explained that the key objectives of the ECR Task Force are to review
and recommend potential solutions that would retain the character of ECR and improve public health, safety,
and infrastructure along ECR. He stated that the consultant recommended that the ECR Task Force focus on
just two blocks of ECR as a pilot project. Accordingly, the task force, staff, Caltrans and Councilmembers
Brownrigg and Beach walked ECR and identified the stretch of the ECR between Sanchez Avenue and
Fairfield Drive as the focus of the pilot project.
Mayor Keighran stated that she had thought that a member of the police department was going to be included
in the ECR Task Force. DPW Murtuza replied that the police department would be brought in as needed.
Mayor Keighran asked about the monitoring of the left turn prohibition. She asked if both the state and the
city would receive the results of the pilot project. DPW Murtuza stated that it was discussed that this
information would be brought to Council.
Councilmember Colson asked if the people on the Community group were all residents of Burlingame.
DPW Murtuza replied in the affirmative.
Councilmember Beach asked if DPW Murtuza felt that l8 months was enough time to complete the study.
DPW Murtuza replied that he would like 36 months but that Caltrans said they could only give l8 months.
Councilmember Beach asked if the west side of ECR would be reviewed as well. DPW Murtuza stated that
at this time, staff and consultants advised him to only focus on a small area and that eventually they will
review other areas.
Mayor Keighran opened up the item for public comment.
Burlingame resident Jennifer Pfaff discussed an error in the MOU that discusses 4 mature elms that are really
4 mature eucalyptuses and I small elm.
Councilmember Brownrigg made a motion to adopt Resolution Number 60-2016 relating to the MOU with
the stipulation that for the City's records it is believed that the description of the trees should be "4 mature
eucalyptuses and I small elm" and not "4 mature elms"; seconded by Councilmember Beach. The motion
passed unanimously by voice vote, 4-0-1.

d. ADOPTION OF A RE,SOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE
A DISPOSITION AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT WITH PACIFIC WEST
COMMUNITIES,INC. FOR BURI,INGAN{E CITY PARKING LOTS F AND N
City Attorney Kane requested Council adopt Resolution Number 62-2016.
City Attorney Kane presented the staff report requesting Council authorize the City Manager to execute a
disposition and development agreement ("DDA") with Pacific West Communities, Inc. for Burlingame City
Parking Lots F and N.
She briefly reviewed the history of the project. She explained that in2014 staff issued a request for
proposals seeking qualified developers interested in creating affordable housing and enhanced parking
facilities on City Parking Lots F and N. Pacific West Communities was identified as the preferred company
to work with on this project. Then during the April 4,2016 City Council meeting, Council entered into an
exclusive negotiating agreement with Pacific West Communities.
City Attorney Kane explained that usually the next step after entering into an exclusive negotiating
agreement is not a disposition and development agreement. She stated that usually the City and developer
would next discus the exact mechanism of transfer - ground lease versus sale, the value of the lots and
determines the appropriate review under CEQA. However, Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") has
cut off a key funding stream for affordable housing in this area as of June 15,2016. Accordingly, in light of
this move, it is essential that the developer have the DDA prior to June 15, 2016. She explained that while
this was not the usual timeline, that the DDA does provide a framework for milestones and commitments by
both the developer and the City to move the project toward approval, modification or denial in a timely
manner. She reviewed the fact that an appropriate review under CEQA would still need to be done.
Councilmember Colson asked how the Govemor's By-Right housing proposal fits in with this project. City
Attomey Kane stated that the things the developer is agreeing to in the DDA are by contract, which is
independent of the Governor's proposal. City Attomey Kane went on to explain that if there are things not
covered in the DDA, this might have an impact on how some of the details are processed.
City Attorney Kane emphasized that the title to the land is not transferred to the developer until all details
and plans have been finalized. She stated that this acts as the final fail safe.
Councilmember Brownrigg stated his support for the project. He asked that the downtown subcommittee be
made available to this project. He stated that this request came from a concern about the timeline for the
project and to ensure that the project is completed. City Attorney Kane stated that an advantage to the tight
timeline is that the Council will know sooner rather than later if the project is feasible.

Mayor Keighran opened up the item for public comment.

Subject: Adoption of a Resolution Approving a Salary Range Adjustment to the City
Librarian Classification
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution authorizing the City
Manager to reduce the salary range of the City Librarian classification to align with the salary
range of the Parks & Recreation Director classification.
BACKGROUND
The City hired a new City Librarian in April 2015. During the recruitment process, the City
Manager determined that the salary range for the City Librarian classification was not
appropriately aligned with those of other Department Head positions. The City Manager informed
the finalist candidate for the City Librarian position that she intended to recommend a reduction of
the range to match that of the Parks and Recreation Director. The applicant City Librarian agreed
to this reduction before accepting the City Librarian position.
DISCUSSION
The Parks and Recreation Director's current salary range is $12,252.39 to $14,925.43 a month,
while the current City Librarian's range is $12,514.36 to $15,245.36. The difference between
these ranges is approximalely 2.1%, which equates to an annual difference of $3,839.16, or
$319.93 per month at the top of the range.
FISCAL IMPAGT
The annual savings will be $3,839.16 a year when the incumbent reaches the fifth step of the
range in several years. There is no fiscal impact on the current budget.

From: Leslie Loomis, Human Resources Director - (650) 558-7209
Subject: Adoption of a Resolution Amending the Agreements with MassMutual and
Reliance Trust Gompany
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution amending the agreements
with MassMutual and Reliance Trust that were approved at the April 18, 2016 City Council
meeting.
BACKGROUND
On April 18,2016, the CityCouncil adopted a resolution authorizing the City Managerto execute
two agreements with MassMutual Life lnsurance, an Administrative Services Agreement to
provide Deferred Compensation 457(b) Plan program administrative services, and an lnvestment
Agreement to provide a stable value investment option for participants; and authorizing the City
Manager to execute an agreement with Reliance Trust Company to provide trustee custodial
services for the Deferred Compensation Plan assets. When the resolution was adopted on April
18, 2016, staff did not know the date the contract would go into effect. lt has now been
determined that August 1,2016, will be the date that the funds will be transferred to
MassMutual/Reliance Trust, and therefore the effective date of the contract is August 1,2016.
DISCUSSION
The terms and conditions of the lt/assl\4utual/Reliance Trust agreements that were adopted at the
April 18, 2016 City Council meeting remain unchanged. However a new resolution is required to
indicate the effective date of the agreements to be August 1,2016.
FISCAL IMPAGT
There is no fiscal impact.

Subject: Adoption of a Resolution Amending the Gity of Burlingame Conflict of
lnterest Gode to Revise the List of Designated Officials and Employees
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution amending the City of
Burlingame Conflict of lnterest Code to revise the List of Designated Employees and Disclosure
Categories.
BACKGROUND
California Government Code 587306,5 requires that each local agency review and, if necessary,
revise its Conflict of lnterest Code in every even-numbered year. The City's Conflict of lnterest
Code details who in the City organization must file a Statement of Economic lnterests, known as
Form 700. The City of Burlingame has adopted a Conflict of lnterest Code that incorporates by
reference the Fair Political Practices Commission's (FPPC) Standard Model Conflict of lnterest
Code contained in 2 California Code of Regulations $18730. While this Code is automatically
updated whenever the model code is changed, the City is required, in even-numbered years, to
review and, if necessary, revise its list of "Designated Employees" (those employees, elected and
appointed officials required to file the Form 700) and its "Disclosure Categories" (the economic
interests which must be disclosed on the Form 700).
The last review and revision to the City's Conflict of lnterest Code occurred in 2014. New
positions, minor omissions on the prior list, and revised job titles require revision to the list of
"Designated Employees and Disclosure Categories." Certain positions that are required to lodge
the Form 700 with the State (City Council, City Manager, City Attorney, Chief Financial Officer,
etc.) are by law not included in the attached list of designated employees.
DISCUSSION
Adoption of an updated Conflict of lnterest Code is required by state law. Attached to this report
is a resolution providing for an amended list of Designated Employees and Disclosure
Categories. The City Council should review the list and adopt the resolution.

RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BURLINGAME
AMENDING THE CITY OF BURLINGAME CONFLICT OF INTEREST CODE
TO REVISE THE LIST OF DESIGNATED EMPLOYEES
WHEREAS, the Political Reform Act, Government Code Sections 81000 and following,
requires the City to adopt a Conflict of lnterest Code for the City; and
WHEREAS, in every even-numbered year, the Political Reform Act requires each local

To Honorable Mayor and City Gouncil
Date: June 20,2016
From: Syed Murtuza, Director of Public Works - (650) 558-7230
Subject: Public Hearing to Renew the Levy and Collection of Assessments for the
Downtown Burlingame Avenue Streetscape lmprovements Project for
FiscalYear 2016-17
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council take the following actions to renew the levy and collection
of assessments for the Downtown Burlingame Avenue Streetscape lmprovements Assessment
District No. 201 2-1 for fiscal year 2016-17:
1. Hold a Public Hearing; and
2. Adopt the attached resolution confirming the assessments and ordering the levy for the
Downtown Burlingame Avenue Streetscape lmprovement Assessment District No. 2012-1
for fiscal year 2016-17.
BACKGROUND
On April 2, 2012, the City Council initiated the proceedings to form the Downtown Burlingame
Avenue Streetscape lmprovement Assessment District No. 2012-1. The proceedings were
conducted under the provisions of the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, Parl2, Division 15
of the California Streets and Highways Code (Act). Weighted ballots were sent via certified mail
to the property owners on April 5,2012. On May 21,2012, the City Council conducted a Public
Hearing to tabulate ballots for the Assessment District. The results of the ballot showed no
"majority protest", thereby allowing the City Council to order improvements, form the Assessment
District, and levy assessments totaling $335,787 annually for 30 years to the downtown
Burlingame Avenue property owners. Property owners were given the option to pre-pay their
assessments to avoid paying annually. To date, five property owners have exercised this option.
DISCUSSION
The Engineer's Report is updated annually to reflect any changes that may have occurred to
property configuration in the Assessment District. There have been no changes to the prior year
Annual Report concerning the levy and collection of assessments within the Assessment District.
The Act requires an annual Public Hearing to confirm and levy the assessment.

7. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City Council of the City of Burlingame ("City Council"), pursuant to the Landscaping and Lighting Act
of 1972, being Division 15, Part 2 of the Streets and Highways Code of the State of California ("1972 Acl"),
previously formed the assessment district known and designated as "Assessment District No. 2012-'t,
Downtown Burlingame Avenue Streetscape lmprovement Project", (hereafter referred to as the "District').
The City Council has adopted the Resolution lnitiatlng Proceedings directing NBS to prepare and file a
report for Fiscal Year 2016117 presenting the improvements, an estimated cost, including debt financing,
of the improvements, annual administrative costs, and a diagram showing the area and properties to be
assessed.
The following assessment is authorized in order to pay the estimated costs, including debt financing of the
improvements and annual administrative costs to be paid by the assessable real property within the
boundaries of the District in proportion to the special benefit received. The following table summarizes the
assessment:

2. INTRODUCTION
2.1. Background of District
The City of Burlingame ("City") has completed, in coordination with planned utility improvements, the
Downtown Burlingame Avenue Streetscape lmprovement Project ("District lmprovement Project'). The
District lmprovement Prolect provided an opportunity for community stakeholders to plan and implement
streetscaping and sidewalk improvements that complement the evolving vision and needs of the
Burlingame Avenue property owners, merchants and community. The District lmprovement Project
improves the public infrastructure that fronts property along Burlingame Avenue (and portions of certain
side streets at intersections with Burlingame Avenue) between El Camino Real and California Orive.
Further, the District lmprovement Project enhances the overall experience of merchants and visitors by
creating a memorable Burlingame Avenue for shopping, dining, and strolling.
2.2. Reason for the Asseeement
The assessment covered by this Engineer's Report will generate the assessment revenue necessary to
provide for a portion of the public improvements provided by the District lmprovement Project and further
described in Section 3.2 of this Engineer's Report. The District improvements may include but are not
limited to, all of the following: streetscape improvements, sidewalk improvements, District financing costs,
and administrative costs associated with the ongoing annual administration of the District.
2.3. Eshblishment of the Assessment
The City formed the District and established assessments by complying with the procedures specified in
Article XlllD and the Proposition 218 Omnibus lmplementation Act ("Proposition 218"). tn November 1996,
the voters in the State of California added Article XlllD to the California Constitution imposing, among other
requirements, the necessity for the City to conduct an assessment ballot procedure to enable the owners
of each property on which assessments are proposed to be enacted, the opportunity to express their
support for, or opposition to the proposed assessment. The basic steps of the assessment ballot procedure
are outlined below.
The City prepared a Notice of Public Hearing ('Notice"), which describes, along with other mandated
information, the reason for the proposed assessments and provided a date, time, and location of a public
hearing to be held on the matter. The City prepared an assessment ballot, which clearly gave the property
owner the ability to sign and execute their assessment ballot either in favor of, or in opposition to, the
assessment. The Notice and assessmenl ballots were mailed to each affected property owner within the
District a minimum of 45 days prior to the public hearing date as shown in the Notice. The City held
community meetings with the property owners to discuss the issues facing the District and to answer
property owner questions directly.
After the Notice and assessment ballots were mailed, property owners were given until the close of the
public hearing, as stated in the Notice, to return their signed and executed assessment ballot. During the
public hearing, property owners were given the opportunity to address the City Council and ask questions
or voice theirconcerns. After the public hearing, the returned assessment ballots received priortotheclose
of the public hearing were tabulated, weighted by the proposed assessment amount on each property and
the results were announced by the City Council.
Article XlllD provides that if, as a result of the assessment ballot proceeding, a majority protest is found to
exist, the City Council shall not have the authority to enact the assessments as proposed. A majority protest
Assessment District No. 2012-1 - City of Burlingame
Prepared by NBS - Fiscal Yeat 2016117
2-1
,
exists if the assessments represented by ballots submitted in opposition exceed those submitted in favor
of the assessment. All returned ballots were tabulated and weighted according to the financial obligation
of each particular parcel. There wasn't a majority protest as described above and the City Council approved
the District formation and assessments.
The City Council will annually declare its intention to levy and collect the assessments within the District
and hold a public hearing concerning such levy of assessments. At such time all interested persons shall
be afforded the opportunity to hear and be heard.

3. PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS
The District provides forvarious Budingame Avenue streetscape and sidewalk improvements located within
the public right-of-way and dedicated easements within the boundaries of the District.
3,1. Description of the Boundari* of the District
The boundaries of the District include properties located along Burlingame Avenue within the City. The
District runs along Burlingame Avenue and is bounded on the east by California Drive and on the west by
El Camino Real. The City will not provide public improvements from the District lmprovement Project to
any area located outside of the District boundaries.
Section 7 of this Engineer's Report provides an assessment diagram that more fully provides a description
of the District's boundaries and the parcels within those boundaries.
3.2. Description of the District lmprovement Project
The District lmprovement Project includes streetscape items such as sidewalk, street and pedestrian
lighting, trees and landscaping, seating, signage, kiosks, gateway treatments, site furnishings, and other
parking improvements, appurtenant facilities, and soft costs. The District lmprovement Project provides for
public improvements to be distributed throughout the entire District, and as such, are of direct and special
benefit to the parcels within the District. The District lmprovement Project consists of a classic design style
with touches of traditional and contemporary design. This desired design style creates a structured, timeless
design with patterned, elegant materials consistent throughout the Burlingame Avenue area.
Not only does the District lmprovement Project provide necessary street improvements, but it allows for an
increase in pedestrian space along Burlingame Avenue. To allow for this additional pedestrian space,
parallel parking replaced the existing angled parking. The change from angled parking to parallel parking
will allow for an expanded 16 foot width of sidewalk area on both sides of Burlingame Avenue. This
additional sidewalk area can provide sufficient space for seating, art features, landscaping, and lighting.
Burlingame Avenue will be maintained with two-way traffic and 10 foot wide travel lanes. The parallel
parking stalls, with a parking assist zone, will have a width of nine feet. The parking assist zone allows for
car door openings and limited bike through lanes along Burlingame Avenue.
At the intersection corners along Budingame Avenue bulb-outs are proposed to allow for additional
pedestrian areas. ln addition to providing an enhanced pedestrian area, the corner intersection bulb-outs
will reduce pedestrian crossing distances. As an additional safety feature, the crosswalks will be of a
different construction material than the street surface to provide a warning for traffic to slow down.
The District lmprovement Project includes asphalt paving in the roadway and colored concrete for the
parking and parking assist zones. The sidewalks, corner intersection bulb-outs and cross walks will be
constructed of concrete pavers. Trees, street lights with limited features, and other public furnishings are
also included throughout the District.
3.3. Map of District lmprovement Project
The following map provides the approximate location (for reference only - may not include all) of the
improvements provided by the District lmprovement Project throughout the District.

4. ESTIMATE OF COSTS
The estimated cost of the District lmprovement Project as more fully described in Section 3 of this
Engineer's Report is outlined below.
4.7. Disfict lmprovement Project Cosfc
The following table provides the costs for the District lmprovement Project. Refer to Section 6 for more
detail on the financing plan and the annual assessment budget.
Description Amount
District lmprovement Project Costs
Construction $9,709,355
Construction Management 825,660
Construction Engineering 332,000
Engineering Adm inistration 360,000
Total District !mprovement Project Costs $11,227,015
Contemporaneously with the District lmprovement Project, the City, using sewer and water enterprise
funds, replaced the sewer and water lines under Budingame Avenue (the overall total cost for all projects
was $15,443,660). By completing the District lmprovement Project in coordination with the utility
improvements, it saved significant project costs and minimize the construction impacts to property and
businesses along Burlingame Avenue. A portion of the planned utility improvement budget, $922,000, was
allocated for patching the streets and sidewalks. Since the District lmprovement Project eliminates that
need for patching, the $922,000 is being contributed to the streetscape project from the sewer and water
enterprise funds and thus will not be specially assessed. Thus, overall, the District lmprovement Project
was funded by state gas tax, Measure A funds, grant funds, sewer and water enterprise funds, the parking
enterprise fund, and revenues from District special assessments.

5, SPECIAL AND GENERAL BENEFIT
5.1. lntroduction
Pursuant to Article XlllD, all parcels that receive a special benefit confened upon them as a result of the
improvements shall be identified, and the proportionate special benefit derived by each identified parcel
shall be determined in relationship to the entire costs of the improvements. Division 12 of the Streets and
Highways Code, the Landscaping and Lighting Act of '1972, permits the establishment of assessment
districts by local agencies for the purpose of providing certain public improvements necessary or convenient
for providing certain public services.
Section 22573 of the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 requires that assessments must be levied
according to benefit rather than according to assessed value. This Section states:
"The net amount ,o be assessed upon lands within an assessment district may be
appotiioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes the net amount among all
assessab/e lots or parcels in proportion to the estimated benefrt to be received by each
such lot or parcel from the improvements."
Article XlllD, Section 4(a) of the California Constitution limits the amount of any assessment to the
proportional special benefit confened on the property. Article XlllD also provides that publicly owned
properties must be assessed unless there is clear and convincing evidence that those properties receive
no special benefit from the assessment. Examples of parcels exempted from the assessment would be the
areas of public streets, public avenues, public lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys,
public easements and rights-of-ways, public greenbelts, and public parkways.
Furthermore, Proposition 218 requires that the City separate the general benefit from special benefit, so
only special beneflt may be assessed.
5.2. ldentification of Benefit
The District lmprovement Project will provide benefits to both those properties within the District boundaries
and to the community as a whole. The benefit conferred to property within the District can be grouped into
three primary benefit categories; aesthetic benefit, safety benefit, and economic activity benefit. The three
District benefit categories are further expanded upon in each section below.
Aesthetic Benefit
The aesthetic benefit relates to the increase in the overall aesthetics as a result of the District lmprovement
Project. The District lmprovement Project will provide public streel and sidewalk infrastructure
beautification throughout the District, that will enhance the overall image and desirability of the properties
within the District. Burlingame Avenue streetscape improvements within the District were last completed
back in the early 1g60s. Since that time, the public facilities have deteriorated. The following aesthetic
beneflts will be provided as a result of the District lmprovement Poect:. The District lmprovement Project enhances the community identity of the Burlingame Avenue area,
which will lead to a stronger and healthier street corridor. The image of the Burlingame Avenue
area will be increased by correcting the visual clutter such as trash containers and news racks that
currently encroach on the pedestrian area.
o Uniform and up to date streetscape and sidewalk improvements creates cohesion throughout the
District from El Camino Real to California Drive. This District cohesion enhances the retail
experience as well as encourage maximum use of space.
Assessment District No. 2012-1 - Cily of Burlingame
Prepared by NBS - Fiscal Yeat 2016117
5-'l
Upgraded streetscaping and sidewalk amenities provided by the District lmprovement Project
enhances the appearance, desirability, and "livability" of the property directly fronting the
improvements provided throughout the District.
As a result of the District lmprovement Project, the overall "livability" of the District increases. "Livability"
encompasses several qualities and characteristics that are unique to a specific area. The Vctoria Transport
Policy lnstitute (www.vtpi.org) expands on the concept of "livability'and the various beneflts associated
with that designation:
"The livability of an area increases propefty deshability and business activity. Livability is
largely affected by conditions in the public realm, places where people naturally interact
with each other and their community, including streets, parks, transportation terminals and
other public facilities. Livability also refers to the environmental and social quality of an
area as perceived by employees, customers and visitors. This includes local environmental
conditions, the quality of social interactions, opportunities for recreation and enteftainment,
aesrher?s, and existence of unique cultural and environmental resources."
Safetv Benefit
The District lmprovement Prolect provides an increased level of safety to the property, businesses, and
visitors to the District. Additionally, the District lmprovement Project help mitigate potential criminal activity
throughout the District area. The following safety benefits are provided as a result of the District
lmprovement Project:. The District lmprovement Project repaired uneven and deteriorating sidewalks within the District.
lmprovements to the existing sidewalk infrastructure will reduce the number of future trip and fall
occurrences potentially occurring in front of District property.
. The District lmprovement Project provides better lighting throughout the Burlingame Avenue area.
The improved lighting ensures that sidewalks, streets, and property fronts are more visible. This
increased level of visibility reduces the opportunities for vandalism to property within the District.
. Wider sidewalks provide additional space between vehicle and property as well as vehicle and
pedestrian, which provides a safety benefit for both property and pedestrian.
. Traffic calming improvements can reduce automobile traffic and speeds, which in turn, increases
the safety for vehicular passengers, pedestrians, and other non-motorized travels.
The streetscaping strategies utilized in the development of the District lmprovement Project provide
numerous safety beneflts to property and people throughout the District. Again, the Vlctoria Transport
Policy lnstitute (www.vtpi.org) notes the safety benellt attributable to streetscaping improvements:
"Several studies indicate that common streetscaping straregles, such as landscaping and
nanowing traffic lanes, tend to increase traffic safety. Streerscap,ng that reduces traffic
speeds and improves pedestrian crossing conditions can significantly reduce collisions.
Research by the U.S. Highway Safery Research Sysle m concludes that road diets (afterial
street traffic calming) typically reduce crash rates by 479/0 on major highways through small
urban areas, by 19% on corridors in larger city suburban areas, and 29%;o overall."
Assessment District No. 2012-1 - City of Burlingame
Prepared by NBS - Fiscal Yeat 2016117
Economic tv Benefit
The economic activity benefit relates to the increase in the District's economic activity an d further potential
as a result of the District lmprovement Project. The economic activity for property within the District can
best be described as the ability for the property within the District to develop and operate at the property's
highest and best use. Properties within the District receive the following economic activity beneflts as a
result of the District lmprovement Project:
. The District lmprovemenl Project revitalizes the Burlingame Avenue area. This revitalization will
encourage new business development and existing business expansion which will reduce vacancy
rates and increase lease rates for property within the District.
. The streetscaping improvements encourages an increase in commerce throughout the District.
The Burlingame Avenue area will become more pedestrian friendly, thus improving customer
activity for stores and restaurants.
The streetscaping improvements not only add economic value to property adjacent to the improvements,
but the improvements make the property appear more stable and prosperous. The National complete
Streets Coalition (www.completestreets.org) notes that:
"street design that is inclusive of all modes of transportation, where appropriate, not only
improves conditions for existing businesseq but a/so ,s a proven method for revitalizing an
area and attracting new development. Washington, DC's Barracks Row was experiencing
a steady decline of commercial activity due to uninviting sidewalks, lack of streetlights, and
speeding traffic. After many design improvements, which included new pafterned
sidewalks, more efficient public parking, and new traffic signals, Barrack's Row attracted
44 new businesses and 2OO new iobs. Economic activity on this three-quafter mile strip
(measured by sales, employees, and number of pedestrians) has more than tripled since
the inception of the project."
5.3.of General Benefit
Section 4 of Article XIIID of the California Constitution provides that once a local agency which proposes to
impose assessments on property has identified those parcels that will have special beneflts conferred upon
them and upon which an assessment will be imposed, the local agency must next "separate the general
benefits from the special beneflts conferred," and only the special benefits can be included in the amount
of the assessments imposed.
General benefit is an overall and similar benefit to the public at large resulting from the improvements to be
provided by the assessments levied. The District improvements, which are more fully presented in Section
3.2 of this Engineer's Report, will be constructed and provided within the District boundaries only. There
will be no improvements from the District lmprovement Project constructed outside of the District
boundaries.
The District lmprovement Project provide aesthetic, safety, and economic benefits to the property within
the District, but it is recognized that the District lmprovement Project also provides a level of benefit to some
property and businesses within proxlmity to the District, as well as visitors and individuals passing through
the District. Vehicular and pedestrian traffic from property within and outside of the District as well as
individual passing through the downtown Burlingame Avenue area are able to utilize the improvements to
not only access property and businesses located within a close proximity to the District, but also roadways
located outside of the District. Therefore, the general benefit created as a result of the District lmprovement
Project has been considered.

5.4. Quantification of General Benefit
ln order for property within the District to be assessed only for that portion of special benefit received from
the District lmprovement Project, the general benefit provided by the District lmprovement Project needs to
be quantified. The amount of general benefit provided from the District lmprovement Project can not be
assessed to the benefitting properties within the District. To quantify the general beneflt provided to the
variety of traffic that passes through the District for the general benefit of enjoying the surrounding
atmosphere, observing the level of economic activity, or accessing adjacent property or arterial streets in a
more efficient and safe manner, both vehicular and pedestrian traffic flows have been incorporated in the
quantification of general benefit.
Vehicular Traffic Activitv
Access to the Burlingame Avenue commercial core area is provided by major north-south arterials. Those
major arterials are El Camino Real to the west of the District and California Drive to the east of the District.
Coitector streets feed traffic to these and other arterials throughout the City. As such, Burlingame Avenue
is considered a collector street within the City. ln 2010, the City adopted the Burlingame Downtown Specific
Plan ("specific Plan"). The Specific Plan included a Traffic lmpact Analysis Technical Memorandum
("Traffic Analysis") prepared by Wilbur Smith Associates. This Traffic Analysis evaluated existing traffic
conditions at various points throughout the prolect area. One point evaluated by the consultants was
existing travel conditions at the intersection of Burlingame Avenue and Park Road. The Traffic Analysis
evaluaied, among other characteristics, traffic counts, turning movement data, vehicle delay, and level of
servlce for each intersection. Existing conditions for the project area intersections, includingthe Burlingame
Avenue intersection, were evaluated during a weekday, evening peak hour timeframe. There were 664
observed traffic counts at the intersection of Burlingame Avenue and Park Road. Park Road terminales at
Burlingame Avenue requiring traffic to either turn left or right onto Burlingame Avenue. ln addition to the
Traffic Analysis, information related to vehicle trips by purpose was used from the Summary of Travel
Trends 2009 National Household Travel Survey ('2009 NHTS") sponsored by the U.S. Department of
Transportation Federal Highway Administration. Of the observed 2,171 vehicle trips in the 2009 NHTS
survey, 643 trips represented social, recreational and other travel purposes; the remaining 1,425 vehicle
trips represented work, shopping and other errands. Applying this vehicle trip breakdown to the observed
traffic counts at the intersection of Burlingame Avenue and Park Road, 207 of the trafflc counts represent
social, recreational, and other travel purposes not directly related to District activities but more likely utilizing
Burlingame Avenue as a collector street to feed to one of the adjacent arterial streets. This non-District
related trafflc count represents approximately 31.20% of the total observed traffic counts and is considered
to be general benefit from the District lmprovement Project.
Pedestrian Traffic Activitv
As result of the sidewalk improvemenls and beautification provided by the District lmprovement Project,
there is a level of benefit to those pedestrians not involved with any of the shopping, dining, or other
commerce activities provided by the District properties. People walk for a variety of reasons; work, errands,
shopping, recreation, health, and many others. Further, pedestrians will seek out and utilize sidewalk
facilities that provide a safe place to walk as well as an environment that provides a certain amount of visual
interest. Again, the 2009 NHTS analyzed the annual num ber of walking trips and the purpose of the walking
trips made by individuals surveyed. Of the annual total 40,962 (in millions) walking trips, 30,129 of those
walking trips were for travel, work, shopping, errands, business obligations, and meals; the remaining
10,833 walking trips were for social, recreational, and other purposes. The social, recreational, and other
purpose walking trips represented 26.5% of the total walking trips reported. Therefore, to account for that
portion of the Burlingame Avenue pedestrian activity utilizing the improvements provided by the District
lmprovement Project for non-District related activities, 26.50% of pedestrian traffic activity is considered to
be of general benefit.
Since the District lmprovement Prolect provides a blend of both vehicular and pedestrian activity the lwo
categories must be addressed in a collective form rather than independently. Therefore, to appropriately
quantify the overall level of general benefit provided by the District lmprovement Project the arithmetic mean
5-4Assessment District No. 2012-1 - Cily ol Burlingame
Prepared by NBS - Fiscal Yeat 2016117
of the general benefit percentages from the vehicular traffic activity and the pedestrian traffic activity has
been calculated. This general benefit result is provided in the table below.
Descri n Percentage
General Benefit 28.85Yo
Accordingly, 71.15% ofthe benefits from the District lmprovement Project are considered to provide special
benefits to the properties within the District and thus could be subject to assessment therein
5.5. Apportion ing of Special Benefit
As outlined above, each of the parcels within the District is deemed to receive special benefit from the
District lmprovement Project. Each parcel that has a special benefit conferred upon it as a result of the
District lmprovement Project is identified and the proportionate special beneflt derived by each identified
parcel is determined in relationship to the entire cost of the District lmprovement Project.
Benefit Point Assignment
Aesthetic nefit Points
Aesthetic benefit points are assigned based upon not only the property's location to the District
lmprovement Project, but also the property's zoning designation. All District parcels are located within the
Builingame Avenue Commercial District, which has a commercial zoning designation. Additionally, since
the Diatrict lmprovement Project is provided uniformly throughout the District all properties within the District
are within the same proximity to the location of the infrastructure provided by the Diskict lmprovement
Project. Therefore, the aesthetic benefit to each parcel in the District is deemed to be the same. Each
property within the District is assigned one (1.00) benefit point for the aesthetic benefits received from the
District lmprovement Project.
Safetv Benefit Points
The safety benefit points are assigned based upon not only the property's location to the District
lmprovement Project, but also the property's zoning designation. All District parcels are located within the
Burlingame Avenue Commercial District, which has a commercial zoning designation. Additionally, since
the Diatrict lmprovement Project is provided uniform ly throughout the District all properties within the District
are within the same proximity to the location of the infrastructure provided by the District lmprovement
Project. Therefore, the safety benefit to each parcel in the District is deemed to be the same. Each property
within the District is assigned one (1.00) benefit point for the safety benefits received from the District
lmprovement Project.
Economic Activitv Benefit Points
The economic activity benefit points are assigned based upon not only the property's location to the District
lmprovement Project, but also the property's zoning designation. All District parcels are located within the
Burlingame Avenue Commercial District, which has a commercial zoning designation. Additionally, since
the District lmprovement Project is provided uniformly throughout the District all properties within the District
are within the same proximity to the location of the infrastructure provided by the District lmprovement
Project. Therefore, the economic activity benefit to each parcel in the District is deemed to be the same.
The Burlingame Avenue Commercial District is already a well-established commercial district with a strong
economic activity presence. The Burlingame Avenue area features a mixture of restaurants, national retail
stores, and many localty based retailers. Marketing and promotional efforts to increase the economic
presence of an expanded area that includes the District boundaries is currently being funded by the
Burlingame Avenue Downtown Business lmprovement District ("DBlD"). ln an effort to increase the
economic presence, business owners within the DBID pay an annual assessment to fund various activities
that aid in the promotion, advertising and image building of the businesses within the DBID boundaries.
Existing marketing and promotional activities throughout the District area have resulted in higher tenant
lease rates. According to Loopnet.com on March 23, 2012, the average lease rate along Burlingame
Assessment District No. 2012-1 - City of Burlingame
Prepared by NBS - Fiscal Year 2016/17
Avenue was approximately 45% higher than the average lease rate along the City's Broadway Avenue,
another commercial area. Retail sales are also strong within the District, according to City Economic
Development data, with sales per square foot generally ranging from $300 to $800+ per square foot.
Further, there were a few new buildings constructed in the downtown around the time of formation of the
District and several major remodels of existing buildings to accommodate new retail uses generally limited
to tenant improvements. Given this already existing slrong economic activity presence throughout the
District, as well as the potential for property to further develop and enhance their economic presence, each
property within the District is assigned one-half (0.50) benefit point for the economic activity benefits
received from the District lmprovement Project.
The following table provides a summary of the special benefit points assigned to each parcel within the
District.

Parcel Factors
The method of apportioning the benefit to the parcels within the District reflects the proportional special
benefit assigned to each property from the District lmprovement Prolect based upon the various property
characteristics for each parcel as compared to other properties within the District. As part of the special
benefit analysis, various property characteristics were analyzed including parcel size, street frontage,
building size, land use, trip generation etc. Given that the special benefits provided by the District
lmprovement Project focuses on aesthetic benefit, safety benefit, and economic activity benefits it was
determined that linear frontage and lot square footage are the most appropriate parcel factors. Each
parcel's linear frontage and lot square footage have been used as the primary assessment variables for the
calculation and assignment of parcel factors.
By adjusting the assigned special beneflt points set forth above by parcel factors, a more complete picture
of the proportional special benefits received by each parcel from the District lmprovement Project is
presented. Therefore, linearand lot parcel factors were calculated for each parcel in the District according
to the formulas below:
Linear Factor
Pursuant to Section 25.32.050 of the City's Zoning Code for the Burlingame Avenue Commercial District,
each lot shall have a streel frontage of at least 50 feet. Utilizing the prescribed street frontage as set forth
in the City's Zoning code, a linear factor is calculated for each parcel based upon the assigned linear
frontage for the parcel divided by 50.00:
Linear Factor Parcel's Assigned
Linear Street Frontage 50.00
There are several parcels located at street intersections within the District. The District lmprovement
Project partially extends along the side streets at these intersections with Burlingame Avenue. To account
for the partial extension of the District lmprovement Project at each street intersection, the side street linear
frontage of the improvement has been added to each corner parcel to account for this increased linear
frontage adjacent to the District lmprovement Project.

Lot Factor
Pursuant to Section 25.32.050 of the City's Zoning Code for the Burlingame Avenue Commercial District,
each lot shall have an area of at least 5,000 square feet. Utilizing the prescribed lot square footage as set
forth in the City's Zoning code, a lot factor is calculated for each parcel based upon the assigned lot square
footage for the parcel divided by 5,000:

The District lmprovement Project, as well as the store and property fronts that are adjacent to those linear
improvements provide an enhanced level of interest and "curb appeal" that add to the overall experience
along Burlingame Avenue. Since the improvements and furnishings are uniform throughout the District,
the "curb appeal" is consistent for the front of each parcel located within the District. Additionally, the
uniform landscaping aids in softening the surrounding edges of each parcel's front exposure to the District
lmprovement Project by adding life, color, and texture to the property's appearance, and overall pedestrian
experience. Given the linear nature of the aesthetic benefits provided by the District lmprovement Project,
the aesthetic benefit that each property receives is also perceived on a linear basis. To appropriately
quantify and assign the aesthetic benefit received by each parcel within the District, the aesthetic benefit
point is further adjusted according to the formula below:
Parcel's Total
Aesthetic Points
Aesthetic Benefit
Points Assigned x Linear Factor
Parcel's Total Safety Points
The District lmprovement Project provides enhanced lines of travel and sight along Burlingame Avenue,
which increases the level of safety by mitigating potential accidents and crime by having the additional
exposure to property and traffic. The lighting improvements also increase the visual sight line by providing
additional exposure to property fronts, especially during the evening hours. This additional exposure
reduces the potential for crime and vandalism to the front of property throughout the District. Further, the
sidewalk and parking zone along Burlingame Avenue provides a buffer for traffic and the property frontage.
Again, given the linear nature of the safety benefits provided by the District lmprovement Project, the safety
benefit that each property receives is also perceived on a linear basis. To appropriately quantify and assign
the safety benefit received by each parcel within the District, the safety benefit point is further adjusted
according to the formula below:

The District lmprovement Project creates a more pedestrian friendly and inviting Burlingame Avenue
environment that supports and encourages additional commerce activity throughout the District. The
improvements allow parcels within the District to develop and redevelop to their highest and best use in
accordance with City zoning and development regulations. However, the one limiting property
characteristic that constrains a parcel from developing to the highest and best use is the size of the parcel
itself. The size of a parcel limits the amount of development and redevelopment that may occur on the
footprint of the parcel. Larger parcels allow for greater area to develop and redevelop than do smaller
Assessment District No. 2012-1 - City of Burlingame

5-7
parcels, which corresponds to larger parcels receiving proportionally greater economic activity benefit when
compared to smaller parcels within the District. Therefore, the economic activity benefit for parcels in the
District is in direct proportion to the size of the parcel. Since the economic activity benefits are in direct
relation to the size of a parcel, then the economic activity benefits provided by the District lmprovement
Project is also perceived on a parcel size basis. To appropriately quantify and assign the economic activity
benefit received by each parcel within the District, the economic activity benefit point is further adjusted
according to the formula below:
Parcel's Total Economic

Data Considerations and Parcel Changes
The use of the latest San Mateo County Assessor's Secured Roll information served as the basis in
determining each parcel's linear frontage and lot square foolage, unless better data was available to the
City. ln addition, if any parcel within the District is identified bythe San Mateo County Auditor/Conkoller to
be an invalid parcel number, the linear frontage and lot square footage of the subsequent valid parcel shall
be the basis for assigning the future total special benefit points. lf a single parcel subdivides into multiple
parcels, the total special benefit points shall be apportioned based on lhe linear frontage and lot square
footage of the newly created parcels.
Total Special Benefit Points
The total special benefit points assigned to the parcels at formation of the District were '183.28. The

6. T|IIETHOD ASSESSMENT
6,7. Assessment Budget
ln order to assess the parcels within the District for the special benefits received from the District
lmprovement Project, the general and special benefits must be separated. As previously quantified in
Section 5.4 of this Engineer's Report, the general benefit received from the District lmprovement Project is
28.85%. Accordingly, 71.15% of the benefits from the District lmprovement Project are considered to
provide special benefits to the properties within the District and thus could be subject to assessment therein.
However, as shown below, because of contributions from various funds available to the City, including the
sewer, water, and parking enterprise funds, Measure A funds, and grant funds, only 53.11o/o of the District
lmprovement Project costs are being specially assessed. Reducing the District lmprovement Project costs
by these contributions, the total District lmprovement Project costs to be specially assessed are as follows:
(1)812 of the District lmprovement costs have been financed over a period of 30 years.
The City issued bonds for the total District lmprovement Project costs assessed for special benefit and will
use the assessment revenues to repay the bonds, over a period of 30 years, for the District's portion of that
cost, $5,620,812, plus the City's estimated financing and interest costs. Section 6.3 of this Engineer's
Report provides the basis of the average annual debt service payment used to establish the annual
assessments.
Assessment Rate per Special Benefit Point
The assessment rate per special benefit point is calculated by dividing the total annual assessable budget
by the total special benefit points assigned to the parcels in the District. The following formula provides the
assessment rate per special benefit point calculation:

The total amount of financed District lmprovement Project costs, which has been determined to provide
special benefit to parcels within the District, will be assessed over a period of 30 years. The individual
assessments are shown on the assessment roll in Section 8 of this Engineer's Report.
0.2. liethod of Assessment Spread
The method of assessment is based upon a formula that assigns the special benefit to each parcel, with

The $5,620,812 portion of Djstrict lmprovement Prolect costs assessed to property within the District has
been financed over a period of 30 years. ln addition to the amount of financed District lmprovement Project
costs, any financing costs related to the issuance of debt such as the cost of issuance, original issue
discount, and contingencies were included as part of the total amount financed. The City has calculated
the annual assessment based on its costs of financing the District's portion of the District lmprovement

Engineer's Report.
6.4. Asse*ment Prepayment Fomula
Assessment Prepayment Formula During the 30 Days Following District Formation
ln the 30 days after the formation of the District, property owners had the option to prepay and permanently

Assessment Prepayment Formula After the 30 Day Period Following District Formation
Property owners within the District may prepay and permanently satisfy their entire portion (no partial
prepayments) of the total annual assessmenl of an assessor's parcel, provided that a prepayment may be
made only if there are no delinquent assessments with respect to such assessor's parcel at the time of
prepayment. An owner of an assessor's parcel intending to prepay the ongoing annual assessment
obligaiion shall provide the City with written notice of intent to prepay. Within 30 days of receipt of such
writdn notice, the City shall notify such owner of the prepayment amount of such assessor's parcel. The
assessment prepayment amount shall be calculated by the following steps:
Step 1: Compute the special benefit points that could be assigned to the assessor's parcel prepaying the
annual assessment obligation in the flscal year in which the prepayment would be received by the City.
Step 2: Divide the special benefit points computed pursuant to Step 1 for such assessor's parcel by the
total special benefit points that could be assigned in that fiscal year to property in the entire District.
Step 3: Multiply the quotient computed pursuant to Step 2 by the total annual assessment to compute that
portion of the total annual assessment to be prepaid ("Parcel's Annual Assessment Amount").
Step 4: Calculate the revenue stream produced by the Parcel's Annual Assessment Amount from the date
of prepayment up to and including the maturity date of the District, June 30, 2042, except that this assumed
final maturity date may be amended by the City no Iater than the time of the calculation of the prepayment.
Step 5: Calculate the present value of the annual revenue stream determined in Step 4. The present value
shall be calculated using that discount rate which, when the prepayment is invested in City approved
availabte investments earning a rate of interest equal to the discount rate, would produce annual revenues
equal to the amount calculated in Step 4.

)
Step 6: Determine the prepayment amount by adding to the present value calculated in Step 5 any fees or
expenses incuned by the City in connection with the prepayment calculation or the application of the
proceeds of the prepayment.

MEETING DATE: June 6, 2016
To:Honorable Mayor and City Gouncil
Date: June 6,2016
From: Syed Murtuza, Director of Public Works - (650) 558-7230
Subject:Adoption of Resolutions lnitiating Proceedings to Renew the Levy and
Collection of Assessments for the Downtown Burlingame Avenue
Streetscape lmprovement Project for Fiscal Year 2016-17
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolutions to initiate proceedings to
renew the levy and collection of assessments for the Downtown Burlingame Avenue Streetscape
lmprovement Assessment District No. 2012-1for fiscal year 2016-17 as follows:
a. lnitiate proceedings for the levy and collection of assessments for fiscal year 2016-17;
b. Approve the Annual Engineer's Report for fiscal year 2016-17; and
c. Declare the intention to levy and collect assessments for fiscal year 2016-17.
BACKGROUND
At its April 2,2012 meeting, the City Council initiated the proceedings to form the Downtown
Burlingame Avenue Streetscape lmprovement Assessment District No. 2012-1. The proceedings
were conducted under the provisions of the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, Part 2,
Division 15 of the California Streets and Highways Code (Act). Weighted ballots were sent via
certified mail to the property owners on April 5,2012. At the May 21,2012 meeting, the City
Council conducted a Public Hearing to tabulate ballots for the Assessment District. The results of
the ballot showed no "majority protest", thereby allowing the City Council to order improvements,
form the Assessment District, and levy assessments totaling $335,787 annually for 30 years to
the downtown Burlingame Avenue property owners. Property owners were given the option to
pre-pay their assessments to avoid paying annually. Five property owners have exercised this
option.
DISCUSSION
The Engineer's Report is updated annually to reflect any changes that may have occurred to
property configuration in the Assessment District. The Act requires an annual Public Hearing to
confirm and levy the assessment. The Public Hearing will be held on June 20, 2016.

7. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City Council of the City of Burlingame ("City Council"), pursuant to the Landscaping and Lighting Act
of 1972, being Division 15, Part 2 of the Streets and Highways Code of the State of California (1972 Act"),
previously formed the assessment district known and designated as "Assessment District No.2012-1,
Downtown Burlingame Avenue Streetscape lmprovement Project", (hereafter referred to as the "District").
The City Council has adopted the Resolution lnitiating Proceedings directing NBS to prepare and file a
report for Fiscal Year 2016117 presenting the improvements, an estimated cost, including debt financing,
of the improvements, annual administrative costs, and a diagram showing the area and properties to be
assessed.
The following assessment is authorized in order to pay the estimated costs, including debt financing of the
improvements and annual administrative costs to be paid by the assessable real property within the
boundaries of the District in proportion to the special benefit received. The following table summarizes the
assessment:

(2) Contemporaneously with the District lmprovement Project, the City, using sewer and water
enterprise funds, replaced the sewer and water lines under Burlingame Avenue (the overall total
cost for all projects is $15,443,660). A portion of the money for that project was allocated for
patching the streets and sidewalks. Since the District lmprovement Project eliminates the need
for patching, the $922,000 is being contributed to the District lmprovement Project.

2. INTRODUCTION
2.1. Background of District
The City of Burlingame ("City") has completed, in coordination with planned utility improvements, the
Downtown Burlingame Avenue Streetscape lmprovement Prgect ('Diskict lmprovement Project"). The
District lmprovement Project provided an opportunity for community stakeholders to plan and implement
streetscaping and sidewalk improvements that complement the evolving vision and needs of the
Burlingame Avenue property owners, merchants and community. The District lmprovement Project
improves the public infrastructure that fronts property along Burlingame Avenue (and portions of certain
side streets at intersections with Burlingame Avenue) between El Camino Real and California Drive.
Further, the District lmprovement Project enhances the overall experience of merchants and visitors by
creating a memorable Burlingame Avenue for shopping, dining, and strolling.
2.2. Reason for the Aesessment
The assessment covered by this Engineer's Report will generate the assessment revenue necessary to
provide for a portion of the public improvements provided by the District lmprovement Project and further
described in Section 3.2 of this Engineer's Report. The District improvements may include but are not
limited to, all of the following: streetscape improvements, sidewalk improvements, District financing costs,
and administrative costs associated with the ongoing annual administration of the District.
2.3. Establishment of the Assessment
The City formed the District and established assessments by complying with the procedures specified in
Article XlllD and the Proposition 218 Omnibus lmplementation Act ("Proposition 218"). In November'1996,
the voters in the State of California added Article XlllD to the California Constitution imposing, among other
requirements, the necessity for the City to conduct an assessment ballot procedure to enable the owners
of each property on which assessments are proposed to be enacted, the opportunity to express their
support for, or opposition to the proposed assessment. The basic steps of the assessment ballot procedure
are outlined below.
The City prepared a Notice of Public Hearing ("Notice"), which describes, along with other mandated
information, the reason for the proposed assessments and provided a date, time, and location of a public
hearing to be held on the matter. The City prepared an assessment ballot, which clearly gave the property
owner the ability to sign and execute their assessment ballot either in favor of, or in opposition to, the
assessment. The Notice and assessment ballots were mailed to each affected property owner within the
District a minimum of 45 days prior to lhe public hearing date as shown in the Notice. The City held
community meetings with the property owners to discuss the issues facing the District and lo answer
property owner questions directly.
After the Notice and assessment ballots were mailed, property owners were given until the close of the
public hearing, as stated in the Notice, to return their signed and executed assessment ballot. During the
public hearing, property owners were given the opportunity to address the City Council and ask questions
or voice theirconcerns. Afterthe publichearing, the returned assessment ballots received priortotheclose
of the public hearing were tabulated, weighted by the proposed assessment amounl on each property and
the results were announced by the City Council.
Article XlllD provides that if, as a result of the assessment ballot proceeding, a majority protest is found to
exist, the City Council shall not have the authority to enact the assessments as proposed. A majority protest
Assessment District No. 2012-1 - City of Burlingame
Prepared by NBS - Fiscal Year 2016/17
2-1
exists if the assessments represented by ballots submitted in opposition exceed those submitted in favor
of the assessment. All returned ballots were tabulated and weighted according to the financial obligation
of each particular parcel. There wasn't a majority protest as described above and the City Council approved
the District formation and assessments.
The City Council will annually declare its intention to levy and collect the assessments within the District
and hold a public hearing concerning such levy of assessments. At such time all interested persons shall
be afforded the opportunity to hear and be heard.

3, PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS
The District provides for various Burlingame Avenue streetscape and sidewalk improvements located within
the public right-of-way and dedicated easements within the boundaries of the District.
3.1. Descrtpfion of the Boundaries of the District
The boundaries of the District include properties located along Burlingame Avenue within the City. The
District runs along Burlingame Avenue and is bounded on the east by Califomia Drive and on the west by
El Camino Real. The City will not provide public improvements from the District lmprovement Project to
any area located outside of the District boundaries.
Section 7 of this Engineer's Report provides an assessment diagram that more fully provides a description
of the District's boundaries and the parcels within those boundaries.
3.2. Description of the District lmprovement Proiect
The District lmprovement Pro.iect includes streetscape items such as sidewalk, street and pedestrian
lighting, trees and landscaping, seating, signage, kiosks, gateway treatments, site furnishings, and other
pirking improvements, appurtenant facitities, and solt costs. The District lmprovement Project provides for
public im provements to be distributed throughout the entire District, and as such, are of direct and special
benefit to the parcels within the District. The District lmprovement Project consists of a classic design style
with touches of kaditional and contemporary design. This desired design style creates a structured, timeless
design with patterned, elegant materials consistent throughout the Burlingame Avenue area.
Not only does the District lmprovement Project provide necessary street improvements, but it allows for an
increase in pedestrian space atong Burlingame Avenue. To allow for this additional pedestrian space,
parallel parking replaced the existing angled parking. The change from angled parking to parallel parking
will allow for an expanded l6 foot width of sidewalk area on both sides of Burlingame Avenue. This
additional sidewalk area can provide sufficient space for seating, art features, landscaping, and lighting.
Burlingame Avenue will be maintained with two-way traffic and 10 foot wide travel lanes. The parallel
parking stalls, with a parking assist zone, will have a width of nine feet. The parking assist zone allows for
car door openings and Iimited bike through lanes along Burlingame Avenue.
At the intersection corners along Burlingame Avenue bulb-outs are proposed to allow for additional
pedestrian areas. ln addition to providing an enhanced pedestrian area, the corner intersection bulb-outs
will reduce pedestrian crossing distances. As an additional safety feature, the crosswalks will be of a
different construction material than the street surface to provide a warning for traffic to slow down.
The District lmprovemenl Project includes asphalt paving in the roadway and colored concrete for the
parking and parking assist zones. The sidewalks, comer intersection bulb-outs and cross walks will be
constructed of concrete pavers. Trees, street lights with limlted fealures, and other public furnishings are
also included throughout the District.
3.3. Map of Dietrict lmprovement Proiect

4, ESTIMATE OF COSTS
The estimated cost of the District lmprovement Project as more fully described in Section 3 of this
Engineer's Report is outlined below.
4.1. District lmprovement Project Cosk
The following table provides the costs for the District lmprovement Project. Refer to Section 6 for more
detail on the financing plan and the annual assessment budget.
Description Amount
District lmprovement Project Costs
Construction $9,709,355
Construction Management 825,660
Construction Engineering 332,000
Engineerin g Adm inistration 360,000
Tota! District lmprovement Project Costs $11,227,015
Contemporaneously with the District lmprovement Project, the City, using sewer and water enterprise
funds, replaced the sewer and water lines under Burlingame Avenue (the overall total cost for all projects
was $15,443,660). By completing the District lmprovement Project in coordination with the utility
improvements, it saved significant project costs and minimize the construction impacts to property and
businesses along Budingame Avenue. A portion of the planned utility improvement budget, $922,000, was
allocated for patching the streets and sidewalks. Since the District lmprovement Project eliminates that
need for patching, the $922,000 is being contributed to the streetscape project from the sewer and water
enterprise funds and thus will not be specially assessed. Thus, overall, the District lmprovement Project
was funded by state gas tax, Measure A funds, grant funds, sewer and water enterprise funds, the parking
enterprise fund, and revenues from District special assessments.

5. SPECIAL AND GENERAL BENEFIT
5.1. lntroduction
pursuant to Article XlllD, all parcels that receive a special benefit conferred upon them as a result of the
improvements shall be identified, and the proportionate special benefit derived by each identified parcel
shall be determined in relationship to the entire costs of the improvements. Division 12 of the Streets and
Highways code, the Landscaping and Lighting Act of '1972, permits the establishment of assessment
dis;tricts by local agencies for the purpose of providing certain public improvements necessary or convenient
for providing certain public services.
Section 22573 of the Landscaping and Lighting Acl ot 1972 requires that assessments must be levied
according to benefit rather than according to assessed value. This Section states:
"The net amount to be assessed upon lands within an assessmenf district may be
appottioned by any formuta or method which fatly distributes the net amount among all
assessab/e lois or parcels in proportion to the estimated benefit to be received by each
such lot or parcel from the improvements."
Article XlllD, Section 4(a) of the California Constitution limits the amount of any assessment to the
proportional speciat benefit confened on the property. Article XlllD also provides that publicly owned
properties must be assessed unless there is clear and convincing evidence that those properties receive
no ipecial benefit from the assessment. Examples of parcels exempted from the assessment would bethe
areas of public streets, public avenues, public lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys,
public easements and rights-of-ways, public greenbelts, and public parkways.
Furthermore, Proposition 218 requires that the City separate the general benefit from special benefit, so
only special benefit may be assessed.
5.2. ldentification of Benefit
The District lmprovement Project will provide benefits to both those properties within the District boundaries
and to the community as a whole. The benefit conferred to property within the District can be grouped into
three primary benefit categories; aesthetic benefit, safety benefit, and economic activity beneflt. The three
District benefit categories are further expanded upon in each section below.
Aesthetic Benefit
The aesthetic benefit relates to the increase in the overall aesthetics as a result of the District lmprovement
pro.iect. The District lmprovement Project will provide public street and sidewalk infrastructure
beautification throughout the District, that will enhance the overall image and desirability of the properties
within the District. Burlingame Avenue streetscape improvements within the District were last completed
back in the early 1960s. Since that time, the public facilities have deteriorated. The following aesthetic
benefits will be provided as a result of the District lmprovement Project:
. The District lmprovement Project enhances the community identity of the Burlingame Avenue area,
which will tead to a stronger and healthier street conidor. The image of the Burlingame Avenue
area will be increased by correcting the visual clutter such as trash containers and news racks that
currently encroach on the pedestrian area.
. Uniform and up to date streetscape and sidewalk improvements creates cohesion throughout the
District from El Camino Real to California Drive. This District cohesion enhances the retail
experience as well as encourage maximum use of space.
Assessment District No. 2012-1 - City of Burlingame
Prepared by NBS - Fiscal Yeat 2016117
5-1
Upgraded streetscaping and sidewalk amenities provided by the District lmprovement Project
enhances the appearance, desirability, and "livability' of the property directly fronting the
improvements provided throughout the District.
As a result of the District lmprovement Project, the overall 'livability" of the District increases. "Livability"
encompasses several qualities and characteristics that are unique to a specific area. The Vlctoria Transport
Policy lnstitute (www.vtpi.org) expands on the concept of'livability" and the various benefits associated
with that designation:
"The livability of an area increases propeiy desirability and business activity. Livability is
largely affected by conditions in the public realm, places where people naturally interact
with each other and their community, including streets, parks, transportation terminals and
other public facilities. Livability also refers to the environmental and social quality of an
area as perceived by employees, customers and visitors. This includes localenvironmental
conditions, the quality of social interactions, oppofiunities for recreation and entertainment,
aesthellcs, and existence of unique cultural and environmental resources.'
Safetv Benefit
The District lmprovement Project provides an increased level of safety to the property, businesses, and
visitors to the District. Additionally, the District lmprovement Project help mitigate potential criminal activity
throughout the District area. The following safety benefits are provided as a result of the District
lmprovement Project:. The District lmprovement Project repaired uneven and deteriorating sidewalks within the District.
lmprovements to the existing sidewalk infrastructure will reduce the number of future trip and fall
occurrences potentially occurring in front of District property.
. The District lmprovement Project provides better lighting throughout the Burlingame Avenue area.
The improved lighting ensures that sidewalks, streets, and property fronts are more visible. This
increased level of visibility reduces the opportunities for vandalism to property within the District.
. Wider sidewalks provide additional space between vehicle and property as well as vehicle and
pedestrian, which provides a safety benefit for both property and pedestrian.
. Traffic calming improvements can reduce automobile traffic and speeds, which in turn, increases
the safety for vehicular passengers, pedestrians, and other non-motorized travels.
The streetscaping strategies utilized in the development of the District lmprovement Project provide
numerous safety benefits to property and people throughout the District. Again, the Victoria Transport
Policy lnstitute (www.l,tpi.org) notes the safety benefit attributable to streetscaping improvements:
"Several studies indicate that common streetscaping strategles, such as landscaping and
narrowing traffic lanes, tend to increase traffic safety. Streetscaping that reduces traffic
speeds and improves pedestrian crossing conditions can signiticantly reduce collisions.
Research by the U.S. Highway Safety Research Syste m concludes that road diets (afterial
street traffic calming) typically reduce crash rates by 479/0 on major highways through small
urban areas, by 1gyo on corridors in larger city suburban areas, and 29yo overall."
Assessment District No. 2012-1 - City of Burlingame
Prepared by NBS - Fiscal Year 2016/'17
Economic Activitv Benefit
The economic activity benefit relates to the increase in the District's economic activity and further potential
as a result of the District lmprovement Project. The economic activity for property within the District can
best be described as the ability for the property within the District to develop and operate at the property's
highest and best use. Properties within the District receive the following economic activity benefits as a
result of the District lmprovement Project:
. The District lmprovement Project revitalizes the Burlingame Avenue area. This revitalization will
encourage new business development and existing business expansion which will reduce vacancy
rates and increase lease rates for property within the District.
. The streetscaping improvements encourages an increase in commerce throughout the District.
The Burlingame Avenue area will become more pedestrian friendly, thus improving customer
activity for stores and restaurants.
The streetscaping improvements not only add economic value to property adjacent to the improvements,
but the improvements make the property appear more stable and prosperous. The National Complete
Streets Coalition (www.completestreets.org) notes that:
"street design that is inclusive of all modes of transportation, where appropriate, not only
improves conditions for existing businesses, but a/so is a proven method for revitalizing an
area and attracting new development. Washington, DC's Barracks Row was experiencing
a steady decline of commercial activity due to uninviting sidewalks, lack of streetlights, and
speeding traffic. After many design improvements, which included new patterned
sidewalks, more efficient public parking, and new traffic signals, Barrack's Row attracted
44 new businesses and 2OO new jobs. Economic activiu on this three-quader mile strip
(measured by sales, employees, and number of pedeslnans,) has more than tripled since
the inception of the project."
5.3. Separation of General Benefit
Secton 4 of Article XlllD of the California Constitution provides that once a local agency which proposes to
impose assessments on property has identified those parcels that will have special benefits conferred upon
thdm and upon which an assessment will be imposed, the local agency must next "separate the general
benefits from the special benefits conferred," and only the special benefits can be included in the amount
of the assessments imposed.
General benefit is an overall and similar benefit to the public at large resulting from the improvements to be
provided by the assessmenls levied. The District improvements, which are more fully presented in Section
3.2 of this Engineer's Report, will be constructed and provided within the District boundaries only. There
will be no improvements from the District lmprovemenl Project constructed outside of the District
boundaries.
The District lmprovement Prolect provide aesthetic, safety, and economic benefits to the property within
the District, but it is recognized that the District lmprovement Project also provides a level of benefit to some
property and businesses within proximity to the District, as well as visitors and individuals passing through
the Disiict. Vehicular and pedestrian traffic from property within and outside of the District as well as
individual passing through the downtown Budingame Avenue area are able to utilize the improvements to
not only access property and businesses located within a close proximity to the District, but also roadways
located outside ofthe District. Therefore, the general benefitcreated asa resultofthe District lmprovement
Project has been considered.
Assessment District No. 2012-1 - City of Burlingame
Prepared by NBS - Fiscal Year 2016/17
5.4. Quantification of General Benefit
ln order for property within the Districl to be assessed only for that portion of special benefit received from
the District lmprovement Project, the general benefit provided by the Districl lmprovement Project needs to
be quantified. The amount of general benefit provided from the District lmprovement Project can not be
assessed to the benefitting properties within the District. To quantify the general benefit provided to the
variety of trafflc that passes through the District for the general benefit of enjoying the surrounding
atmosphere, observing the level of economic activity, or accessing adjacent property or arterial streets in a
more efficient and safe manner, both vehicular and pedestrian traffic flows have been incorporated in the
quantification of general benefit.
Vehicular Traffic Activitv
Access to the Burlingame Avenue commercial core area is provided by major north-south arterials. Those
major arterials are El Camino Real to the west of the District and Califomia Drive to the east of the District.
Collector streets feed traffic to these and other arterials throughout the City. As such, Burlingame Avenue
is considered a collector street within the City. ln 2010, the City adopted the Burlingame Downtown Specific
Plan ("Specific Plan"). The Specific Plan included a Traffic lmpact Analysis Technical Memorandum
("Traffic Analysis") prepared by Wilbur Smith Associates. This Traffic Analysis evaluated existing traffic
conditions at various points throughout the project area. One point evaluated by the consultants was
existing travel conditions at the intersection of Burlingame Avenue and Park Road. The Traffic Analysis
evaluated, among other characteristics, traffic counts, turning movement data, vehicle delay, and level of
service for each intersection. Existing conditions for the project area intersections, including the Burlingame
Avenue intersection, were evaluated during a weekday, evening peak hour timeframe. There were 664
observed traffic counts at the intersection of Burlingame Avenue and Park Road. Park Road terminates at
Burlingame Avenue requiring traffic to either turn left or right onto Burlingame Avenue. ln addition to the
Traffic Analysis, information related to vehicle trips by purpose was used from the Summary of Travel
Trends 2009 National Household Travel Survey C2009 NHTS") sponsored by the U.S. Department of
Transportation Federal Highway Administration. Of the observed 2,171 vehicle trips in the 2009 NHTS
survey, 643 trips represented social, recreational and other travel purposes; the remaining 1,425 vehicle
trips represented work, shopping and other errands. Applying this vehicle trip breakdown to the observed
traffic counts at the intersection of Burlingame Avenue and Park Road, 207 of the traffic counts represent
social, recreational, and other travel purposes not directly related to District activities but more likely utilizing
Burlingame Avenue as a collector street to feed to one of the adjacent arterial streets. This non-District
related traffic count represents approximately 31.20% of the total observed traffic counts and is considered
to be general benefit from the District lmprovement Project.
Pedestrian Traffic Activitv
As result of the sidewalk improvements and beautification provided by the District lmprovement Project,
there is a level of beneflt to those pedestrians not involved with any of the shopping, dining, or other
commerce activities provided by the District properties. People walk for a variety of reasons; work, errands,
shopping, recreation, health, and many others. Further, pedestrians will seek out and utilize sidewalk
facilities that provide a safe place lo walk as well as an environment that provides a certain amount ofvisual
interest. Again, the 2009 NHTS analyzed the annual numberof walking trips and the purpose of the walking
trips made by individuals surveyed. Of the annual total 40,962 (in millions) walking trips, 30,'129 of those
walking trips were for travel, work, shopping, errands, business obligations, and meals; the remaining
10,833 walking trips were for social, recreational, and other purposes. The social, recreational, and other
purpose walking trips represented 26.5% of the total walking trips reported. Therefore, to account for that
portion of the Burlingame Avenue pedestrian activity utilizing the improvements provided by the District
lmprovement Project for non-District related activities, 26.50% of pedestrian traffic activity is considered to
be of general benefit.
Since the District lmprovement Project provides a blend of both vehicular and pedestrian activity the two
categories must be addressed in a collective form ralher than independently. Therefore, to appropriately
quantify the overall level of general benefit provided by the District lmprovement Project the arithmetic mean
Assessmenl District No. 2012-1 - Cily ol Burlingame
Prepared by NBS - Fiscal Yeat 2016117
of the general benefit percentages from the vehicular traffic activity and the pedestrian traffic activity has
been calculated. This general benefit result is provided in the table below.
Description Percentaqe
General Benefit 28.85%
Accordingly, 71.15o/o of the benefits from the District lmprovement Project are considered to provide special
benefits to the properties within the District and thus could be subject to assessment therein.
5.5.of Special Benefit
As outlined above, each of the parcels within the District is deemed to receive special benefit from the
District lmprovement Project. Each parcel that has a special benefit conferred upon it as a result of the
District lmprovement Project is identified and the proportionate special benefit derived by each identified
parcel is determined in relationship to the entire cost of the District lmprovement Project.
Benefit Point Assignment
Aesthetic Benefit Points
Aesthetic benefit points are assigned based upon not only the property's location to the District
lmprovement Project, but also the property's zoning designation. All District parcels are located within the
Burlingame Avenue Commercial District, which has a commercial zoning designation. Additionally, since
the District lmprovement Project is provided uniformly throughout the District all properties within the District
are within the same proximity to the location of the infrastructure provided by the District lmprovement
Project. Therefore, the aesthetic benefit to each parcel in the District is deemed to be the same. Each
property within the District is assigned one (1.00) benefit point for the aesthetic benefits received from the
District lm provement Project.
Safetv Benefit Points
The safety benefit points are assigned based upon not only the property's location to the District
lmprovement Project, but also the property's zoning designation. All District parcels are located within the
Burlingame Avenue Commercial District, which has a commercial zoning designation. Additionally, since
the District lmprovement Project is provided uniformly throughout the District all properties within the District
are within the same proximity to the location of the infrastructure provided by the District lmprovement
Project. Therefore, the safety benefit to each parcel in the District is deemed to be the same. Each property
within the District is assigned one (1.00) benefit point for the safety benefits received from the District
lmprovement Project.
Economic Activitv Benefit Points
The economic activity benefit points are assigned based upon not only the property's location to the District
lmprovement Project, but also the property's zoning designation. All District parcels are located within the
Burlingame Avenue Commercial District, which has a commercialzoning designation. Additionally, since
the District lmprovement Project is provided uniformly throughout the District all properties within the District
are within the same proximity to the location of the infrastructure provided by the District lmprovement
Project. Therefore, the economic activity benefit to each parcel in the District is deemed to be the same.
The Burlingame Avenue Commercial District is already a well-established commercial district with a strong
economic activity presence. The Burlingame Avenue area features a mixture of restaurants, national retail
stores, and many locally based retailers. Marketing and promotional efforts to increase the economic
presence of an expanded area that includes the District boundaries is currently being funded by the
Burlingame Avenue Downtown Business lmprovement District ("DB|D"). ln an effort to increase the
economic presence, business owners within the DBID pay an annual assessment to fund various activities
that aid in the promotion, advertising and image building of the businesses within the DBID boundaries.
Existing marketing and promotional activities throughout the District area have resulted in higher tenant
lease rates. According to Loopnet.com on March 23, 2012, the average lease rate along Burlingame
Assessment District No. 2012-1 - City of Burlingame
Prepared by NBS - Fiscal Year 2016117
5-5
Avenue was approximately 45% higher than the average lease rate along the City's Broadway Avenue,
another commercial area. Retail sales are also strong within the District, according to City Economic
Development data, with sales per square foot generally ranging from $300 to $800+ per square foot.
Further, there were a few new buildings constructed in the downtown around the time of formation of the
District and several major remodels of existing buildings to accommodate new retail uses generally limited
to tenant improvements. Given this already existing strong economic activity presence throughout the
District, as well as the potential for property to further develop and enhance their economic presence, each
property within the District is assigned one-half (0.50) benefit point for the economic activity benefits
received from the District lmprovement Project.
The following table provides a summary of the special beneflt points assigned to each parcel within the
District.

Parcel Factors
The method of apportioning the benefit to the parcels within the District reflects the proportional special
benefit assigned to each property from the District lmprovement Pro.iect based upon the various property
characteristics for each parcel as compared to other properties within the District. As part of the special
benefit analysis, various property characteristics were analyzed including parcel size, street frontage,
building size, land use, trip generation etc. Given that the special benefits provided by the District
lmprovement Project focuses on aesthetic benefit, safety benefit, and economic activity benefits it was
determined that linear frontage and lot square footage are the most appropriate parcel factors. Each
parcel's linear frontage and lot square footage have been used as the primary assessment variables for the
calculation and assignment of parcel factors.
By adjusting the assigned special benefit points set forth above by parcel factors, a more complele picture
of the proportional special benefits received by each parcel from the District lmprovement Project is
presented. Therefore, linearand lot parcelfactors were calculated for each parcel in the District according
to the formulas below:
Linear Factor
Pursuant to Section 25.32.050 of the City's Zoning Code for the Burlingame Avenue Commercial Diskict,
each lot shall have a street frontage of at least 50 feet. Utilizing the prescribed street frontage as set forth
in the City's Zoning code, a linear factor is calculated for each parcel based upon the assigned linear
frontage for the parcel divided by 50.00:
Linear Factor Parcel's Assigned
Linear Street Frontage 50.00
There are several parcels located at street intersections within the District. The District lmprovement
Project partially extends along the side streets at these intersectlons with Burlingame Avenue. To account
for the partial extension of the District lmprovement Project at each street intersection, the side street linear
frontage of the improvement has been added to each corner parcel to account for this increased linear
frontage adjacent to the District lmprovement Project.

Lot Factor
Pursuant to Section 25.32.050 of the City's Zoning Code for the Burlingame Avenue Commercial District,
each lot shall have an area of at least 5,000 square feet. Utilizing the prescribed lot square footage as set
forth in the City's Zoning code, a lot factor is calculated for each parcel based upon the assigned lot square
footage for the parcel divided by 5,000:

The District lmprovement Project, as well as the store and property fronts that are adjacent to those linear
improvements provide an enhanced level of interest and "curb appeal" that add to the overall experience
along Burlingame Avenue. Since the improvements and furnishings are uniform throughout the District,
the "curb appeal" is consistent for the front of each parcel located within the District. Additionally, the
uniform landscaping aids in softening the surrounding edges of each parcel's front exposure to the District
lmprovement Project by adding life, color, and texture to the property's appearance, and overall pedestrian
experience. Given the linear nature of the aesthetic benefits provided by the District lmprovement Project,
the aesthetic benefit that each property receives is also perceived on a linear basis. To appropriately
quantify and assign the aesthetic benefit received by each parcel within the District, the aesthetic benefit
point is further adjusted according to the formula below:

The District lmprovement Project provides enhanced lines of travel and sight along Burlingame Avenue,
which increases the level of safety by mitigating potential accidents and crime by having the additional
exposure to property and traffic. The lighting improvements also increase the visual sight line by providing
additional exposure to property fronts, especially during the evening hours. This additional exposure
reduces the potential for crime and vandalism to the front of property throughout the District. Further, the
sidewalk and parking zone along Burlingame Avenue provides a buffer for traffic and the property frontage.
Again, given the linear nature of the safety benefits provided by the District lmprovement Project, the safety
benefit that each property receives is also perceived on a linear basis. To appropriately quantify and assign
the safety benefit received by each parcel within the District, the safety benefit point is further adjusted
according to the formula below:

The District lmprovement Project creates a more pedestrian friendly and inviting Burlingame Avenue
environment that supports and encourages additional commerce activity throughout the District. The
improvements allow parcels within the District to develop and redevelop to their highest and best use in
accordance with City zoning and development regulations. However, the one limiting property
characteristic that constrains a parcel from developing to the highest and best use is the size of the parcel
itself. The size of a parcel limits the amount of development and redevelopment that may occur on the
footprint of the parcel. Larger parcels allow for greater area to develop and redevelop than do smaller

Data Considerations and Parcel Changes
The use of the latest San l/ateo County Assessor's Secured Roll information served as the basis in
determining each parcel's linear frontage and lot square footage, unless better data was available to the
City. ln addition, if any parcel within the District is identified by the San Mateo County Auditor/Controller to
be an invalid parcel number, the linear frontage and lot square footage of the subsequent valid parcel shall
be the basis for assigning the future total special benefit points. lf a single parcel subdivides into multiple
parcels, the total special benefit points shall be apportioned based on the linear frontage and lot square
footage of the newly created parcels.
Total Special Benefit Points
The total special benefit points assigned to the parcels at formation of the Oistrict were 183.28. The
following table provides a breakdown of the total special benefit point assignment for each parcel in the
District:

parcels, which corresponds to larger parcels receiving proportionally greater econom ic activity benefit when
compared to smaller parcels within the District. Therefore, the economic activity benefit for parcels in the
District is in direct proportion to the size of the parcel. Since the economic activity benefits are in direct
relation to the size of a parcel, then the economic activity benefits provided by the District lmprovement
Project is also perceived on a parcel size basis. To appropriately quantify and assign the economic activity
benefit received by each parcel within the District, the economic activity benefit point is further adjusled

6. METHODASSESSMENT
6.1. Assessment Budget
In order to assess the parcels within the District for the special benefits received from the District
lmprovement Project, the general and special benefits must be separated. As previously quantified in
Section 5.4 of this Engineer's Report, the general benefit received from the District lmprovement Project is
28.85o/o. Accordingly, 71.15o/o of the benefits from the District lmprovement Project are considered to
provide special benefits to the properties within the District and thus could be subject to assessment therein.
However, as shown below, because of contributions from various funds available to the City, including the
sewer, water, and parking enterprise funds, Measure Afunds, and grantfunds, only 53.11o/o of the District
lmprovement Project costs are being specially assessed. Reducing the District lmprovement Project costs
by these contributions, the total District lmprovement Project costs to be specially assessed are as follows:
(1) $5,620,812 of the District lmprovement Pro,lect costs have been nanced over a period of 30 years.
The City issued bonds for the total District lmprovement Project costs assessed for special benefit and will
use the assessment revenues to repay the bonds, over a period of 30 years, for the District's portion of that
cost, $5,620,812, plus the City's estimated financing and interest costs. Section 6.3 of this Engineer's
Report provides the basis of the average annual debt service payment used to establish the annual
assessments.
Assessment Rate per Special Benefit Point
The assessment rate per special benefit point is calculated by dividing the total annual assessable budget
by the total special benefit points assigned to the parcels in the District. The following formula provides the
assessment rate per special benefit point calculation:

The total amount of financed District lmprovement Project costs, which has been determined to provide
special benefit lo parcels within the District, will be assessed over a period of 30 years. The individual
assessments are shown on the assessment roll in Section 8 of this Engineer's Report.

6.3. District lmprovement Project Debt Financing
The $5,620,812 portion of District lmprovement Project costs assessed to property within the District has
been financed over a period of 30 years. ln addition to the amount of financed District lmprovement Project
costs, any financing costs related to the issuance of debt such as the cost of issuance, original issue

Assessment Prepayment Formula After the 30 Day Period Following District Formation
Property owners within the District may prepay and permanently satisfy their entire portion (no partial
prepayments) of the total annual assessment of an assessor's parcel, provided that a prepayment may be
made only if there are no delinquent assessments with respect to such assessor's parcel at the time of
prepayment. An owner of an assessor's parcel intending to prepay the ongoing annual assessment
obligation shall provide the City with written notice of intent to prepay. Within 30 days of receipt of such
written notice, the City shall notify such owner of the prepayment amount of such assessor's parcel. The
assessment prepayment amount shall be calculated by the following steps:
Step 1: Compute the special benefit points that could be assigned lo the assessor's parcel prepaying the
annual assessment obligation in the fiscal year in which the prepayment would be received by the City.
Step 2: Divide the special benefit points computed pursuant to Step 1 for such assessor's parcel by the
total special benefit points that could be assigned in that fiscal year to property in the entire District.
Step 3: Multiply the quotient computed pursuant to Step 2 by the total annual assessment to compute that
portion of the total annual assessment to be prepaid ("Parcel's Annual Assessment Amount").
Step 4: Calculate the revenue stream produced by the Parcel's Annual Assessment Amount from the date
of prepayment up to and including the maturity date of the District, June 30, 2042, except that this assumed
final maturity date may be amended by the Cily no later than the time of the calculation of the prepayment.
Step 5: Calculate the present value of the annual revenue stream determined in Step 4- The present value
shall be calculated using that discount rate which, when the prepayment is invested in City approved
available investments earning a rate of interest equal to the discount rate, would produce annual revenues
equal to the amount calculated in Step 4.

)
Step 6: Determine the prepayment amount by adding to the present value calculated in Step 5 any fees or
expenses incurred by the City in connection with the prepayment calculation or the application of the
proceeds of the prepayment.

BACKGROUND: At the January 17, 2012 meeting, the Council reviewed three
options for the Burlingame Avenue Streetscape lrnprovements Project and directed
staff to proceed with Alternative 1 for the project design. Since that time, staff and
the consultant team have met with the stakeholder group to further develop the
design and held a community workshop with the Council to obtain public input. ln
general, the recommended streetscape project concept includes 50% wider
sidewalks with concrete pavers, parallel parking, intersection bulb-outs, and shorter
crosswalks for pedestrian safety, site furnishings, new street lights, street trees,
landscaping and new site furnishings. ln addition, the project construction will also
include utility replacements for water, sewer, and storm drain systems; asphalt
roadway paving; concrete paving for the parking and intersection areas.
Funding: The total overall estimated cost of the project (streetscape and utilities) is
$15.9 M. Approximately $11.475 M would be contributed by the City using various
funding sources including water and sewer enterprise funds; parking meter rate
I
increases, storm drainage funds, state gas tax and Measure A Grant as well as
existing funds in the streetscape CIP budget. The remaining $4.475M is proposed to
be funded by the Burlingame Avenue property owners through an Assessment
District.
DISCUSSION ln order to initiate the formation of the Downtown Burlingame
Avenue Streetscape lmprovements Assessment District 2012-1, Council must
review and approve the following.
The Final Concept Plan: The following are the key elements of the final project
concept plan (The project consultant RHAA will make the presentation at the

Assessment District Procegdinssl ln order to proceed with the formation of the
Assessment District 2012-1, the Council should review and approve the attached
resolutions for establishing protest hearing procedures: initiation of Assessment
District proceedings; the Engineefs Report; and declaration of intention to form the
Assessment District.
The Assessment District comprises a total of 50 parcels frontlng Burlingame Avenue
between El Camino Real and California Drive. The attached Enginee/s Report
provides the Assessment District Boundary Map and details of the special and
general benefits, The assessments to individual parcels are based on three factors -
aesthetics, safety, and economic benefits. The aesthetic and safety factors use
linear lot frontage while the economic factor uses the individual parcel's square
footage. The total annual revenue from the proposed Assessment District 2012-1 is
estimated at $335,787, The average annual assessment per parcel is $6,716.
Actual annual assessment for a given parcel may vary depending on the actual
linear frontage and square footage area of the parcel. The annual assessments will
be for a period of 30 years. The propefi owner may pay off the annual
assessments at any time during the 30 year period.
Upon Council approval, the public notices and ballots will be sent via certified mailed
to property owners within the proposed assessment district at least 45 days prior to
the public hearing. The pubtic hearing is set for lt/ay 21, 2012 at which the Council
will hold the public hearing to receive protests and review the ballots received to
determine the formation of an assessment district. The ballots are weighted by the
I
proposed assessment amount on each property and the results announced by the
City Council, lf there is not a majority protest of the total ballots received prior to the
close of the public hearing, the Council may proceed with the assessment district
formation and pursue the project,
BUDqET IMPACT: lf approved, the Burlingame Streetscape lmprovements project
will be funded by a combination of City and Assessment District financing as
described above in the staff report.

MEETING DATE: June 20,2016
To:Honorable Mayor and City Council
Date: June 20, 2016
From: Carol Augustine, Finance Director - (650) 558-7222
Subject:Public Hearing and Adoption of Resolutions (1) Adopting the FY 2016-17
Operating and Capita! Budgets and Authorizing the Finance Director to
Assign Uses of Fund Balance Amounts; and (2) Approving the Gann
Appropriation Limit
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council hold a public hearing on the Proposed Operating Budget
and Five-Year Capital Plan for fiscal year 2016-17, and adopt the two annual budget approval
resolutions in the following order:
a. Resolution of the City Council of the City of Burlingame Adopting Operating and Capital
lmprovement Budgets for the City of Burlingame for Fiscal Year 2016-17 and Authorizing
the Finance Director/Treasurer to Assign Uses to Fund Balance Amounts
b. Resolution of the City Council of the City of Burlingame Establishing the Fiscal Year 2016-
17 Appropriation Limit for the City of Burlingame Pursuant to Article Xlll B of the California
Constitution.
BACKGROUND
The City Council held a Budget Study Session on Wednesday, May 11,2016, to review the City's
initial operating and capital budgets for the upcoming fiscal year 2016-17. At the study session,
staff requested and obtained direction from the City Council regarding increases in staff
resources in specific areas in order to support certain tasks in the 2016-17 Goal Setting
lmplementation Action PIan. As a result, certain personnel budget increases were
recommended. ln addition, staff has been able to review all proposed departmental
appropriations (including cost allocations, internal service funds charges, and interfund transfers),
and has made further adjustments and corrections as discussed below.
DISCUSSION
As noted, adjustments to the initial budget were necessary to reflect changes in General Fund
cost estimates in departmental expenditures:
General Government - An increase in the City Council's Community Groups Funding
Program was made in order to provide additional funding for one-time grant(s) to
1
a
Adoption of FY 2016-17 Budget June 20, 2016
organization(s) with established programs that assist individuals and families that struggle
with cost-prohibitive housing in Burlingame. The additional $45,000 appropriation will
allow the current Community Groups Funding Program to remain in place, yet provide
additional support to efforts to manage this unfortunate upshot of the area's growing
economy.
a Personnel Costs - ln a review of the line-item budget detail of personnel positions, staff
noted that an over-fill position in the Police Department, which was approved for the
current fiscal year, was carried over to the 2016-17 budget. The use of the over-fill
position allowed for full staffing while an officer was on extended leave. The position
(which was not included as an FTE position) is no longer needed and should not be
incorporated into the budgeted costs of the department.
ln addition, staff noted duplication in the cost of administrative leave in the preliminary
budget; this cost was already captured in part in departmental budgets for compensatory
time off. A small downward adjustment to health benefits was also made to reflect actual
coverage choices by recently hired employees. Finally, retiree medical costs for current
active employees (OPEB normal costs) went down slightly after the payroll surcharge for
this benefit was adjusted to match actuarial projections.

All other funds were similarly reviewed and adjusted as necessary to account for instances of
discrepancies and/or the availability of updated information. Changes in the various personnel
cost distributions impacted all operational funds (enterprise and internal service funds), but not
significantly to those presented in the preliminary budget in May. After the updates were
incorporated, the FY 2016-17 budget totals that are now recommended for adoption are as

To avoid duplication of appropriations, the budgets shown exclude interfund transfers. The City's
internal service funds have been shown net of the charges to other funds/departments and
included as "other funds" in the chart above.
A detailed copy of the 2016-17 fiscal year Budget is on file in the Office of the City Clerk and on
the City's website. Copies of the budget document were submitted earlier as part of this
meeting's Council packet.
ARTTCLE Xlll(B) APPROPRTATION LIMtT (GANN Lti/ltT)
The City's appropriation limit for this budget cycle has been prepared in accordance with uniform
guidelines. The appropriations limit imposed by state regulations creates a restriction on the
amount of "proceeds of taxes" that can be appropriated by the City in any fiscal year. The limit is
based on actual appropriations during the 1978-79 fiscal year, as increased each year using
groMh of population and inflation indexes. The appropriation of tax proceeds limit of $73,799,126
for fiscal yeat 2016-17 is significantly greater than the $41 ,1 93,580 of proposed City expenditures
that is subject to the limit for this year. Therefore, the City is well within its appropriation limit.

STATEMENT NO. 54 OF THE GOVERNMENTAL ACCOUNIING SIANDARDS BOARD: FUND
BALANCE REPORTING AND GOVERNMENTAL FUND WPE DEFINITIONS
GASB Statement 54 was intended to improve the usefulness of governmental fund balance
information by providing the users of financial information with clearly defined categories of fund
balance and the constraints placed on the City's fund balances- Enterprise or business-type
funds are not affected. GASB 54 requires governmental fund balances to be reported using five
categories, which take into consideration the makeup and intended use of the various fund
balances. The hierarchy of the five possible classifications of fund balance is:
Non-spendable
Restricted
Committed
Assigned
Unassigned
Unrestricted
(Reserves)
Reserves are obviously a critical element of effective financial management. ln order to establish
appropriate reserve levels, the City has adopted a risk-based General Fund Reserve Policy that
is reviewed at least annually. Recognizing the City's various economically sensitive revenues, a
very high Economic Stability Reserve (24 percent of General Fund revenues) was established.
The reserve strategy for catastrophic events was revisited in October 2015, and the Council
authorized a reduction in the General Fund Catastrophic Reserve from the previous 2-9 percent
range to a flat $2 million. The following assignments of the fund balance of the City's General
Fund are shown here with the estimated amounts to be assigned as of the end of fiscal year
2016-17:
Economic S bilitv Reserve:Available to protect and preserve City services from dramatic drops
in General Fund revenues that are highly sensitive to economic conditions, mainly sales taxes
and transient occupancy taxes; the recommended reserve level was established at 24 percent of
the fund's budgeted revenues. This equates to $ 15.8 million for the year ended June 30, 2017.
Catastrophic Reserye: Available to initiate fundi ng of repairs and reconstruction of City buildings
and facilities that may be damaged by natural disasters or acts of war and terrorism; the reserve
level is $2 million - slightly over 3 percent of projected revenues in the Fy 2016-17 budget.
Continqe ncv Reserve:Available to cover unexpected expenses that may arise during the course
of the fiscal year that were not considered during budget planning ($500,000)
The City Council provides direction on the assignment of fund balance and the amounts to be
assigned with the adoption of each fiscal year's budget. The budget adoption resolution gives the
Finance Director the authority to assign these uses to General Fund balance together with the
amounts of each assignment in accordance with Council policies and direction.
The City's risk-based reserve policy also describes acceptable uses of reserves, establishes who
is authorized to use the reserves, and provides guidance as to replenishing reserves (back to
target levels) when necessary. Note that, although the city's reserves are adequate as a hedge
4
l
Adoption of FY 2016-17 Budget June 20, 2016
for unexpected losses from events such as natural disaster and economic downturns, a separate
Renewal and Replacement Reserve was established within the City's Capital Project Fund to pay
for a long list of specifically identified capital needs. To the extent these specific projects remain
unfunded, they represent a type of long-term liability to the City. The Renewal and Replacement
Reserve was first funded with a mid-year transfer of $3 million from the City's General Fund in
fiscal year 2014-15. The reserve balance as of the end of the current fiscal year is anticipated to
be $13.5 million. An additional $3 million transfer out for the reserve is included in the 2016-17
fiscal year budget; however, the appropriate amount of annual funding for this reserve (as an
operational cost) has not yet been determined.
FISCAL IMPACT
The General Fund budget for the 2016-17 fiscal year calls for projected revenues of $65,830,700,
with expenditures and net transfers out of $62,706,255. The General Fund balance is estimated
to be nearly $29.8 million at the end of fiscal year 2016-17. Estimated increases or decreases to
other major fund balances are shown on pages 44-45 of the 2016-17 Budget document.

t'lhere Does the General Fund Revenue Come From?
Transient occupancy and sates tax revenues are expected to grow due to increased tourism, passenger traffic at SFO as wetl as
more foot traffic in the vibrant retaiI corridors on Burtingame and Broadway Avenue. SaLes per capita in Burtingame continue to
surpass State and County levets. Property taxes are expected to grow due to new construction and changes in ownership. As a
result, revenue is expected to grow by 8% compared to last year's budget.

STAFF REPORT AGENDANO: 10b
MEETING DATE: June 20,2016
To:Honorable Mayor and City Gouncil
Date: June 20,2016
From: Lisa K. Goldman, City Manager - (650) 558-7243
Subject: Approval of the Recommendation of Councilmembers Brownrigg and
Golson for the Distribution of $45,000 in Additional Community Groups
Funding
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the recommendation of Councilmembers
Brownrigg and Colson for the distribution of $45,000 in one-time additional Community Groups
Funding.
BACKGROUND
At the May 1 1, 2016 budget study session, the City Council agreed to provide $45,000 of
additional Community Groups Funding for organizations dealing with affordable housing and
economic distress. Councilmembers Michael Brownrigg and Donna Colson were appointed to a
subcommittee to determine how to distribute these one{ime funds.
DISCUSSION
ln the attached memo, the subcommittee members recommend granting $25,000 to HIP Housing
and $20,000 to CALL Primrose. The memo describes how these one-time funds will be used.
FISCAL IMPACT
The FY 2016-17 budget includes $45,000 in one{ime funding for this purpose

June 13, 2016
Memorandum for the Burlingame City Council
From the Special Subcommittee on Housing Charity, Michael Brownrigg and Donna Colson
SUBJECT: Recommendation for Deployment of 545,000 of Additional Community Group
Funding in 2016
Per recent Council conversations, the Burlingame City Council is in agreement that (1) the
budget for FY 2016h7 is healthier than expected; and (2) there is a brewing crisis of economic
uncertainty within segments of our community. Given the important role that service agencies
play in helping these segments of our community get by, whether with food or housing
assistance, and the stress those agencies themselves are also under, the City Council decided at
the May LL,2016 meeting to double the annual Community Groups Funding via a special one-
time appropriation of 545,000. These funds are to be distributed to groups that are on the
front line of these issues. The Mayor requested that this subcommittee report back with its
recommendation of how to deploy the one-time funding. lnput from fellow Councilmembers at
the May 11 meeting helped guide our thinking in this report, including the notions that the
monies should be directed to those agencies focused on affordable housing and economic
distress within our community; that the group(s) should be selected from our existing list of
approved recipients; and that the funds should be concentrated so as to be meaningful.
RECOMMENDATION
The subcommittee recommends making a 525,000 special one-time grant to HIP Housing. The
funds will be used mainly to help promote greater awareness of the opportunity for Burlingame
homeowners to take in lodgers (shared housing program) and other HIP Housing outreach
efforts principally in the City of Burlingame. Kate Comfort Harr, Executive Director of Human
lnvestment Project (HlP) Housing, was both surprised and grateful, pointing out that HIP was
not sure how it was going to fund this program and yet they believe it has the opportunity to
bring many additional living options onto the market for individuals and small families of
limited means. For more information on Home Sharing, see next page.
The subcommittee recommends making a 520,000 special one-time grant to CALL Primrose
(CALL). The funds would help CALL complete its interior remodeling, which it is undertaking so
that it can provide more floor space to its food pantry and a better shopper experience. The
remodel is also designed to improve workplace safety and efficiency. CALL Executive Director
Terri Boesch and staffer Madalyn Friedman, with whom the subcommittee met, were deeply
grateful for this opportunity. CALL has traditionally received a significant share of funding from
its founding churches, and those resources are not able to keep up with spiking demand. The
agency recently established itself as an independent 501(C)3 organization, and this capital will
also help CALL expand its marketing and awareness campaigns within the larger Burlingame
community.
BACKGROUND ON AGENCIES
CALL Primrose
CALL is a non-profit corporation co-founded by Burlingame United Methodist Church and the
First Presbyterian Church of Burlingame. CALL began in 1983 as a telephone information and
referral service and has now evolved into a drop-in food pantry, providing grocery assistance
and referral services information to families and individuals. CALL's services focus on low-
income families and individuals (including seniors and those who are homeless). Headquartered
in Burlingame, CALL now serves residents of San Bruno, Millbrae, Burlingame, San Mateo,
Foster City, Hillsborough, Belmont, and San Carlos.
Over the past 30 years, thousands of people in need have come to CALL for assistance. All
requests are screened to determine and understand the need and to assist in the process of
self- sufficiency.
Funds and food donations are received from private foundations, businesses and service
organizations, plus various Peninsula city grants. Additional support comes from schools,
congregations and individuals within our community.
CALL's administrative costs are kept very low to ensure that the financial help and support
we receive will go a long way in helping others. ln addition to our small paid staff, we have
many wonderfulvolunteers to help us assist others at the Center.
HIP Housine
Home Sharing is a living arrangement among two or more unrelated people. Home owners or
renters (Home Providers) who have a residence with one or more bedrooms are matched with
persons seeking housing (Home Seekers). There are two types of sharing arrangements: one in
which the Home Seeker pays ren| the other in which the Home Seeker provides in-kind
services in return for reduced rent.
Home Providers must live in San Mateo County. Home Seekers must live, work or attend school
in San Mateo County or have a housing voucher for San Mateo County. People who home share
come from all walks of life... seniors, working persons, students, persons with disabilities,
families, veterans, emancipated foster youth and others. HIP makes all the arrangements and
referral checks. This gift will help HIP reach out to members of the Burlingame community to
see if the supply of home shares might be expanded within our community, creating another
option for residents facing housing pressure.
HIP Housing's mission is to improve the housing and lives of people in our community. HIP
Housing enables people with special needs, either from income or circumstance, to live
independent, self-sufficient lives in decent, safe, low-cost homes. To achieve its mission, HIP
Housing provides Home Sharing, Self-Sufficiency, and Property Development.
STAFF REPORT AGENDA NO: 10c
MEETING DATE: June 20,2016
To:Honorable Mayor and City Gouncil
Date: June 20,2016
From:Lisa K. Goldman, City Manager - (650) 558-7243
Kathleen Kane, City Attorney - (650) 558-7204
Subject: Adoption of a Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute an
Agreement with the San Mateo Union High School District Regarding the
Burlingame Aquatic Center at Burlingame High School
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached Resolution authorizing the City
Manager to Execute an Agreement with the San Mateo Union High School District (SMUHSD, the
District) regarding the Burlingame Aquatic Center at Burlingame High School (BHS).
BACKGROUND
ln November 1997, the City and the District entered into an agreement to jointly fund the
construction and ongoing repair, improvements, and operations of a new 25-yard pool at BHS.
The agreement included terms regarding scheduling of the facility, maintenance, record keeping,
and the distribution of costs, with the City paying 65%, plus 5% overhead, for all routine
maintenance and operations, and the District paying the remaining 35%. The agreement
describes non-routine maintenance (or capital expenditures) as "Extra Work" and notes, "lt is
agreed that extra work falls outside the normal scope of this contract. CITY and DISTRICT must
meet in good faith and negotiate how such extra work is to be performed and how any costs
caused by such extra work shall be apportioned by the two parties." The term of the agreement is
25 years (ending November 19,2022), with an automatic five-year extension unless either party
provides written notice six months in advance that they wish to review or terminate the
agreement.
ln August 1999, after an anonymous donor agreed to provide funding to upgrade the 25-yard pool
facility into a S0-meter pool, the City and the District approved a first amendment to the original
agreement. The amended agreement expanded the hours that the facility could be opened and
various other changes. No changes were made to the cost allocation formula referenced
or to the "Extra Work" provision or term of the agreement.
Between the time the pool opened and 2011, the City operated the community programs at the
pool, including recreational swimming, lap swimming, swim lessons, and fitness classes, and
managed the scheduling. ln 2011, the City contracted with the Burlingame Aquatic Club (BAC) to
1
I
Burl i ngame Aquatic Center Agreement June 20, 2016
operate these programs on the City's behalf. BAC was already managing competitive programs
in adult and youth swimming and water polo at the pool.
DISCUSSION
The City and the District have been engaged in negotiations regarding a new agreement for the
Burlingame Aquatic Center for the past several years. ln October 2015, the City Manager and the
Superintendent reached agreement on a Term Sheet, which both the City Council and the
District's Board of Trustees (the Board) approved that month. The Term Sheet was subsequently
developed into the agreement that is before the City Council for approval. (The Board of Trustees
will consider the agreement on June 23,2016.) The key provisions of the agreement are:
The City will pay 780/o for maintenance and operating expenses, and the District will pay 22o/o.
The City's share, which is higher than that paid under the prior agreement, is reflective of the
City's/BAC's greater use of the facility.
The pool is now sixteen years old and will require capital improvements. Last year, the
District commissioned Aquatic Design Group (ADG) to conduct a facility audit of the aquatic
center- This audit, which will be attached as an exhibit to the agreement, will help the City
and the District jointly develop a ten-year and 20-year capital replacement program. (The
District has agreed to certain corrections in the report. Because they have not been
completed, it is not yet attached. City staff will verify the report is correct before executing the
agreement.) City staff and District staff will meet annually in February or lvlarch to discuss
maintenance and capital needs for the following fiscal year so that both agencies can budget
appropriately for planned expenditures.
ln keeping with past practice, the City and the District will split capital expenses identified in
the ADG report on a 50-50 basis. The District will bill the City as a project is undertaken, and
the City will pay for the work or the asset at that time. Should the agreement terminate early
for any reason, and the asset or project still has a remaining "useful life," then the District will
repay the City for the funds spent according to the remaining life of the asset.
The new agreement will expire on January 1,2026, a three-year extension. The City and the
District will meet over the next three years to work toward a longer-term extension of the
agreement.
The annual pool maintenance closure period has been changed from December 1 - January
31 to no more than two of the following windows: November 15 - December 15, January 1 5
- January 31, and the week of the District's spring break. Emergency repairs can be done
outside of these windows to minimize pool downtime. Major construction can also be done at
other times of the year but will be subject to agreement between the City and the District. The
District will provide the City with a 90-day notice of the closure period, except in emergency
situations. lf available, the District will make every effort to assure that either the San Mateo
High School pool or the Capuchino High School pool is available when the aquatic center is
anticipated to be closed longer than one week. Both of these facilities have locker rooms
separate from the main school locker rooms, thus making it easier to ensure locker room
access for patrons at the alternate facility. The City will pay the District's labor costs to open
2
a
a
Burlingame Aquatic Center Agreement June 20,2016
and close the alternate facility, perform routine maintenance, etc. during the BHS pool
closure. The City will also pay 50% of the standard facility use fees (the non-profit rate) at the
alternate pool(s) during the closure. The City will not pay expenses at the BHS pool during the
closure, except those associated with projects undertaken during the closure.
The City and the District will split the pool in half (ten lanes each) during all shared use times.
With limited exceptions, shared use times are:
o Monday to Friday: 5:30 a.m. to 7:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.
o Monday to Friday, 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., only as needed
o Saturday, 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. during high school water polo season
o Saturday, 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. during high school swim season.
The District will have exclusive use of the pool during competitions, physical education
classes (generally a few weeks at the beginning and end of the school year), and up to three
times per year for special school events. Such full use will begin no earlier than 8:00 a.m.
With the exception of the District's exclusive use periods described above, the City will have
exclusive use of the pool:
o Monday to Friday, 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., unless the District requests shared use
o Monday to Friday, 7:30 p.m. to 10:00 p.m.
o Saturday, 5:30 a.m. to 9:00 a.m.
o Saturday, 11:00 a.m. or 1:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. (depending on high school water polo
and swim seasons, as described above)
o Sunday, 5:30 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.
Scheduling of the BAC swim meets or water polo tournaments outside of the three traditional
events in February, June, and October must be mutually agreed upon by the City and the
District. The City and the District will also review and discuss the schedule at an annual
meeting.
a The City and the District will develop a separate agreement in which the City provides use of
the baseball field at Washington Park to the District, free of charge, for reasonable use
associated with the BHS baseball program. The details regarding scheduling still need to be
worked out. The City has requested that the District provide some regular evening use of the
BHS gym free of charge. Unfortunately, as BHS uses the gym frequently, the District believes
that it is difficult to build a schedule that can accommodate such use. As an alternative, the
District has agreed to discuss providing the City with use of the tt/ills High School gym. (The
Burlingame Parks and Recreation Department is already scheduling programming at Mills
High School this summer as a result of construction at Burlingame lntermediate School, the
campus that the department usually uses.) The details of this use will be worked out in the
baseball field agreement.

. Burlingame Aquatic Center Agreement June 20,2016
FISCAL IMPACT
There will be a cost associated with increasing the City's share of operations and maintenance
from 70o/o (inclusive of 5o/o overhead) to 78o/o (inclusive of 5o/o overhead). That cost will vary from
year to year based on the needs of the facility. Although there will also be a cost for capital each
year, the City's share is not increasing. ln addition, the City's costs should become more
predictable since the City and the District will work together to develop a schedule for
improvements.
