MEETING DATE: March 5,2018
To:Honorable Mayor and City Gounci!
Date: March 5, 2018
From: Margaret Glomstad, Parks and Recreation Director - (650) 558-7307
Subject: Discussion of Field User Organizations' Storage and/or Structures on City
Parkland
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council discuss the issue of field user organizations storing
equipment and or placing structures on City parkland and provide direction on what is to be
permitted in the future and under what conditions.
BACKGROUND
The City regularly rents its fields to organizations that provide athletic opportunities for youth. (At
this time, there are no adult organizations that regularly use the fields, besides the City's own
adult sports leagues.) ln order to assist these organizations in their programming, the City has
permitted organizations to use City storage facilities and/or install their own structures on City
parkland in order to enhance their programming. The structures include sheds, batting cages,
snack shacks, porta potties, and City (or Burlingame School District) owned storage space.
DISCUSSION
ln some cases, the user organizations have either paid for or built the structures. This is the case
with the majority of the storage sheds as well as the batting cages. ln other cases, the
organizations and the City or School District have shared in the cost of the structures (such as
one shed at Bayside and the porta potties), or the City has paid for and/or built the structures (i.e.,
the snack shacks and storage in the grandstands and Golf Center).
At this time, all regular field user organizations have the use of some type of storage and/or
structure located on City parkland. The organizations include:
'1. Burlingame Youth Baseball Association (BYBA)
2. American Youth Soccer Organization (AYSO)
3. Burlingame Girls Softball (BGS)
4. Coyotes Lacrosse
5. Our Lady of Angels (OLA)
6. St. Catherine
7. Mercy Burlingame

Discussron of Field User Organizations' Storage and/or Structures March 5,2018
8. Burlingame High School Baseball
9. Burlingame Soccer Club (BSC)
Exhibit A lists each organization, the fields they use, and the type and location of
storage/structure they have on City parkland. As noted in Exhibit A, the City only has agreements
with BYBA and BGS for some of the structures they use. These agreements are out of date and
do not cover all the uses. Agreements with the other organizations listed above still need to be
developed.
It is important to note that while the new agreements are intended to cover improvements made
to City parks and the maintenance and use of those improvements, the rental of the fields and
field allocations will not be covered and will continue through the Field Use Policy.
ln order for staff to proceed with drafting agreements that can be applied to the various field user
organizations, staff requests direction on the following questions:
1. Does the Council want regular field user organizations to have structures on City parkland? lf
yes, what type of structure(s) is permissible?
a. Storage shed/box
b. Snack shack
c. Batting cage
d. Porta potty
2. Does the Council want to allow the organizations to use City buildings to store their
equipment?
3. Should a fee be charged? lf yes, for use of what structure(s)?
4. Who is financially responsible for the upkeep of the structure(s)?
5. Should any structure become City property after installation on City parkland (either at the
outset or after a certain time period)?
6. Who should get to use the structures, in particular the snack shacks, batting cages and porta
potties?
7. lf permits are required for future structures, should City permit fees be waived?
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact for the discussion but depending on Council direction, there may be
future fiscal impacts.

4. STUDY SESSION
il. DISCUSSION OF RESIDENTIAL IMPACT FEES
City Manager Goldman stated that the study session was a continuation of the discussion started at the
January 27,2018 City Council Annual Goal Setting Session.
CDD Meeker stated that affordable housing impact fees are used to support and build new homes for lower-
income residents. The fees can be charged to developers of new residential projects, and used for land
purchase, construction costs, or site rehabilitation related to providing workforce housing. Jurisdictions may
tailor the fees so they meet local needs. The fees can be adjusted for a wide variety of reasons, as long as
they are not arbitrary or capricious, and the fees for all projects remain below the legal maximum permitted
by a nexus study.
CDD Meeker stated that as part of the San Mateo County "2l Elements" multi-jurisdictional effort, a
Residential Impact Fee Nexus Study was prepared for the City, together with a Commercial Linkage Fee
Nexus Study. These studies describe and quantify how the development of homes, offices, and commercial
space creates a need for housing, particularly for very low, low, and moderate-income residents. The
maximum impact fees that can be legally charged were calculated by estimating the number of new worker

Meeting Date:3/os/L8
households associated with new developments. A final analysis was then completed that considered factors
like local conditions and the fees of neighboring jurisdictions to determine a potential range of impact fees.
CDD Meeker stated that on June 19, 2017, the City Council adopted an ordinance establishing a Commercial
Linkage Fee for new commercial development in Burlingame.
CDD Meeker stated that tonight, staff is asking Council for direction on whether an ordinance should be
created to implement a residential impact fee.
Councilmember Keighran noted that Millbrae wasn't included in the staff report and asked if Millbrae had
linkage fees. Planning Manager Gardiner replied in the negative.
Councilmember Keighran asked if it was correct that the residential impact fee does not pertain to single
family homes but does pertain to single family homes attached (townhouses). Planning Manager Gardiner
replied in the affirmative.
Councilmember Keighran stated that the staff report notes that the City doesn't have park dedication fees or
a bedroom tax. However, the City does have a parks and recreation fee. CDD Meeker stated that the City's
parks and recreation fee is for park maintenance and improvements. Park dedication fees are a result of the
Quimby Act and are collected from new residential subdivisions.
Councilmember Keighran asked what a bedroom tax is. CDD Meeker replied that he was unsure and would
research it for the Council.
Councilmember Keighran asked if the utility connection under potential fees for a 10- unit residential project
is water and sewer. Planning Manager Gardiner replied in the affrrmative.
Councilmember Keighran asked if staff discussed the potential range of residential impact fees with
developers. Planning Manager Gardiner stated that staff has not yet discussed the fees with developers.
Councilmember Keighran asked if staff was looking for Council to determine what the residential impact fee
should be tonight. She explained that she didn't want Council to make a decision and then have staff discuss
whether the fees were feasible with the developers. Planning Manager Gardiner explained that staff was
looking for the Council to determine a few things at the study session: l) if they would like to enact
residential impact fees; 2) if the City enacts fees, a possible range for the fees; 3) if they want tiered fees; 4)
if the City will offer a prevailing wage discount; and 5) feedback on the in-lieu option.
Councilmember Beach stated that the City had not undertaken a nexus study on other impact fees since
200712008 and asked if the City anticipated updating these fees in the near future. City Manager Goldman
stated that staff started reviewing development impact fees when the City undertook the study to update the
Master Fee Schedule. However, at the time, staff was in the early days of updating the General Plan, and
wanted to wait until the project was further along before finalizing the development impact fee study. City

Attorney Kane stated that some of the fees were recently recalibrated including the entitlement fees, cost of
design review, and engineering plan review.
Councilmember Beach asked if staff had any insight on school fees and what the school districts are seeing
as far as a potential need to increase their fees in the future. City Manager Goldman stated that the school
fees are split between SMUSHD and BSD, with BSD getting a larger share of the fees. She noted that she
reached out to BSD Superintendent Maclsaac who informed her that BSD had reached its cap for what it can
charge for school fees. However, Superintendent Maclsaac stated that the schools are overcrowded and that
they are feeling the pressure to open a new school.
Councilmember Beach stated that the cap would have to be increased by the State. City Manager Goldman
replied in the affirmative.
Vice Mayor Colson discussed why single family homes weren't included in the residential impact fee study.
She explained that there wasn't a great potential for new single family homes to be built in the City.
Planning Manager Gardiner replied in the affirmative.
Vice Mayor Colson asked about the nexus fee study in the City's Parks and Recreation Master Plan. City
Manager Goldman stated that there will be a fee study, but it isn't clear how it will interact with the parks
and recreation fee in the staffreport.
Vice Mayor Colson discussed Table I in the staff report which is a summary of housing impact fees in San
Mateo County jurisdictions. She stated that although there is a lot of construction in Belmont and South San
Francisco, neither city has implemented residential impact fees. Planning Manager Gardiner stated that both
South San Francisco and Belmont have inclusionary housing. Additionally, Belmont charges a fee of $20
per square foot for apartments.
Vice Mayor Colson stated that the City Council established a double tiered structure for commercial linkage
fees. The two tiers accounted for the prevailing wage discount. She asked if other cities were using this
structure for residential impact fees. Planning Manager Gardiner replied in the affrrmative.
Councilmember Keighran asked how attached or separated accessory dwelling units fit into residential
impact fees. Planning Manager Gardiner stated that it is a policy choice. He added that some cities do
charge an impact fee for ADUs, but staff isn't recommending that.
Mayor Brownrigg discussed Table 2 inthe staff report, which is a summary of the estimated potential near-
term housing impact fees. He explained that in this table if 900 units are built, then the range of housing
impact fees is $7.65 million to $19.125 million. He asked how many units of affordable housing could be
built with $19 million. Planning Manager Gardiner stated that the conversation on how the City will utilize
these fees is similar to the conversation the City Council had with commercial linkage fees. The City
Council would need to decide whether the funds should be utilized to build units or leveraged with an
or ganization like HEART.

Agenda Item 8a
Meeting Date:3/os/L8
Mayor Brownrigg opened the item up for public comment.
Housing Leadership Council of San Mateo County representative Leora Tanjuatco expressed the
organization's support for passing residential impact fees. She discussed the importance of housing fee
funds as most county, state and federal grants require matching funds.
Burlingame resident Mark Burri voiced his support for promoting prevailing wage and for building
affordable housing.
Mayor Brownrigg closed the public comment.
Councilmember Ortiz voiced his support for moving forward with the impact fees. He stated that he
believed the City should go with the double-tiered system for residential impact fees. Additionally, he stated
that the ranges for the tier without prevailing wage discount should be:
t. Less than 10 units - $15 per square foot
2. ll-25 units - $17 per square foot
3. 26-50 units - $20 per square foot
4. 51-100 units - $22per square foot
5. More than 100 units - $25 per square foot
Lastly, he voiced his concern about an in-lieu option. He stated that he needed more information on this
matter so that when the Council created an in-lieu option, they knew the cost of a below market rate unit in
comparison to the proposed residential impact fee.
Councilmember Beach stated that residential impact fees are something worth exploring. She discussed the
Council's vision/goal of creating a wider array of affordable housing in the city and that these fees are one
tool the Council can use. However, she cautioned her colleagues that it might be a little premature to set a
number before talking to all the stakeholders. She explained that during the summer she had discussed
residential impact fees with some developers. She stated that the developers were supportive of the idea but
cautioned her that if the price tag was too high on these fees, Council may end up not encouraglng the type
of housing that the City wants. She noted that one of the developers informed her that even $20 per square
foot can deplete a contingency on a project. Therefore she stated that the Council needed to be very
thoughtful when approaching this topic.
Councilmember Beach explained that as the General Plan is reviewed; the City Council should discuss other
incentives that could be used such as reducing the parking requirements in exchange for affordable housing.
She stated that in theory she was in support of residential impact fees but wanted to make sure that the
Council came to the right number.
Vice Mayor Colson stated that in speaking with a number of developers, the way these fees are formulated
into the pro forma is that it is a direct offset of the value of the land. Therefore, if it's a $10 million piece of
land, and there is $1 million in fees, then the land is worth $9 million not $10 million. She stated that the
4

proposed amendments to the General Plan are creating a substantial amount of up-zoning throughout the
city's residential areas. By doing this, the City is increasing the value of property by rezoning areas to allow
for three stories where only two stories were allowed before. Accordingly, she stated there is room in the up-
zoning areas for the fees to be accommodated.
Vice Mayor Colson stated that she supports residential impact fees but wanted to make sure that the City's
fees are comparable to neighboring cities.
Councilmember Keighran stated that the City needed to ensure that fees are set so as to encourage affordable
housing units in larger projects. She asked staff to get feedback from developers on residential impact fees.
She noted that she wanted a tiered system, prevailing wage discount, and an in-lieu option.
Mayor Brownrigg concurred with the Vice Mayor that with the potential up-zonings in the General Plan
amendments, there will be a significant increase in land value. He explained that he believed the City should
look at a dual program of inclusionary housing and/or fees. He stated that he was increasingly leaning
towards inclusionary housing. He discussed how both Foster City and Los Gatos have inclusionary housing
and how it benefited their communities.
Mayor Brownrigg discussed the increasing issue of hiring/maintaining police of{icers, teachers, and other
professions in the city. He stated that creating affordable housing isn't just the right thing to do morally but
also a strategic plan for Burlingame. Therefore, the question for him was what produces the most affordable
units. He stated that the City created impact fee programs in the past for issues like parking, and the funds
have not been used. He discussed the study in the staff report that explained that the average cost to
construct a unit is $350,000 not including the cost of land. However, he stated that he believed this cost to
be higher, citing examples of Oakland's recently approved affordable housing project and the City's own
project on Lots F and N.
Mayor Brownrigg stated that the City has been told it needs 400 units for low and very low income levels.
This is a cost of $200 million. He stated that he doesn't see how the residential impact fees will get the City
close to this number.
Mayor Brownrigg stated that if the City undertakes inclusionary housing, managed by the City or a
nonprofit, the City could target the moderate income levels like teachers that may be priced out of other
affordable housing developments.
Mayor Brownrigg stated that as staff discusses residential impact fees with stakeholders, they should also
discuss inclusionary housing. He listed cities that have inclusionary housing requirements including San
Bruno, Menlo Park, San Mateo, South San Francisco, Los Gatos, and Palo Alto.
Mayor Brownrigg stated that he supported staff hiring a consultant to review the different options and
determine which option is most likely to have an effect, what the timeframe would be, and what type of units
could be produced.

Councilmember Keighran stated that she didn't want to mandate inclusionary housing. Instead, she wanted
to give the developers the choice of inclusionary housing or residential impact fees. She stated that funding
could be used to renovate existing housing stock in exchange for the landowner keeping the units affordable.
Mayor Brownrigg concurred with Councilmember Keighran's idea because the City had a significant stock
of relatively affordable units. He stated that the City needs to both build units and preserve affordable units.
Councilmember Ortiz stated that he believed the Council should move forward with establishing tiers for
residential impact fees and then create the in-lieu of fees program. He explained that the in-lieu program
would take longer to research and create. However, he didn't want the City to delay implementing fees.
Mayor Brownrigg stated that he understood Councilmember Ortiz's position but that he believed that much
of the housing would be created after the amendments to the General Plan were finalized. However, he
acknowledged that the City should signal to the market that fees and the in-lieu program are coming.
Mayor Brownrigg stated that establishing the residential impact fees is about incentives: whether the City
wants developers to choose inclusionary housing or pay the fees. Therefore, he didn't think it was
appropriate to decide what the fees are prior to creating the in-lieu program.
Vice Mayor Colson stated that Home for All conducted research on these types of fees and what had been
shown to instigate new affordable housing. She suggested that staff reach out to Home for All to obtain their
findings.
Councilmember Keighran stated that the City needed to take a holistic approach where the fees and the in-
lieu program are reviewed, researched, and established together.
Councilmember Beach stated that she falls into the camp of being thoughtful and not rushing a decision. She
stated that she recognizes Councilmember Ortiz's point about urgency but thought the Council needed to
meet with stakeholders and further research their options.
Vice Mayor Colson discussed that on page three of the staff report it states that "fees can be set per square
foot, per unit, or by some other measure, and can only be applied to new development projects." She stated
that another measure that could be applied is rent per square foot. Therefore, the City could incentivize
developers to maintain an affordable rental rate for a certain time period.
Councilmember Beach asked if the City could structure fees differently for different areas of the City. City
Attorney Kane stated that she would need to do further research.
Mayor Brownrigg asked if staff had direction. Planning Manager Gardiner replied in the affirmative and
stated that staff would further research inclusionary housing.
City Attorney Kane stated that the City's former inclusionary housing program required moderate rent for
ten years, and it required that the unit mix be identical to the market mix. She explained that this had an

interesting effect-because the below market rate period was so short, the developers built regular market
units and designated a few as below market rate. She stated that you are building a very different type of
housing in that example then if you said the BMR unit could be a workforce housing unit. However, the
workforce housing unit will be more naturally affordable beyond the required time because it is less
luxurious than other units.
City Attorney Kane asked if the City Council wanted to give flexibility to the developers in regards to the
type of housing under the in-lieu option. She stated that this would help staff with focusing their discussion
with the different stakeholders.
Councilmember Beach stated that she was in favor of providing developers flexibility because the goal is to
build more affordable housing units. She asked that staff obtain input from the developers on other
incentives that could assist in creating affordable housing. Additionally, she noted that she wanted the
affordable units to stay affordable for a longer period of time than the City's former program.
Mayor Brownrigg stated that he didn't believe the last BMR program worked well. He added that the
previous program kept units affordable for 10 years, which was not long enough to justiflz an incentive. He
stated that he leaned into mandating inclusionary housing because of the success that both Palo Alto and Los
Gatos had with their programs.
Councilmember Ortiz stated that he wanted to give the developers the choice of paying the fee or building
inclusionary housing.
Vice Mayor Colson discussed her concem that inclusionary housing isn't a permanent solution. She stated
that projects like the one on the City's Lots F and N are more sustainable.
Mayor Brownrigg asked the City Manager to work with staff on a proposed timetable for bringing this matter
back to Council.

b. CAROLAN AVENUE COMPLETE STREETS PROJECT UPDATE
DPW Murtuza gave an update on the Carolan Avenue Complete Streets Project. He stated that it was one of
the first of its kind on the Peninsula. The project was a team effort with TSPC, BPAC, residents, staff, and
Council.
DPW Murtuza stated that the project consisted of converting a four-lane roadway to two lanes. He stated
that the reconfiguration added a single left-turn lane, new asphalt, and new Class II bike lanes and lane
striping. The New Class II bike lanes are from Broadway to Oak Grove Avenue in both directions. The
lanes are five to seven feet wide, with a three-foot buffer. These lanes were created to increase cyclist usage.
Additionally the project assisted with pedestrian safety in a number of ways including: bulb-out curbs, traffic
calming elements, updated ADA access ramps, and crosswalk improvements to the Caltrain pedestrian
crossing. DPW Murtuza noted that staff is currently working on sustainable "green" landscaping.
DPW Murtuza stated that the total cost of the project was $1.7 million. The project was funded by a $1
million federal grant and then a combination of Measure A, Measure M, and gas tax funds.
Mayor Brownrigg stated that the project is terrific! He explained that he traveled the new roadway as both a
motorist and a cyclist and believed it was better for both.
Mayor Brownrigg asked when a similar project could be done to Califomia Drive. DPW Murtuza stated that
staff is working on it. He explained that staff will be asking the Council for funding next fiscal year to
undertake a feasibility study to better compete for grants.
7. PUBLIC COMMENT

Meeting Date t 3/05/LB
Sidewalk Repair Program and staff s concerns about this program. He stated that the major challenges to the
proglam were:
. High administrative costs due to the significant staff time involved with implementing the program
o Provision in the program that ensures that affected property owners will not be required to pay for
sidewalks repairs within 12 years
DPW Murtuza stated that at the December 4,2017 meeting, staff provided options to the Council regarding
how to revise the program. After deliberating, the City Council directed staff to proceed with a sidewalk
repair program that is fully City funded, to be implemented annually through the Capital Improvement
Program.
Mayor Brownrigg asked the City Clerk to read the title of the proposed ordinance. City Clerk Hassel-
Shearer read the title.
Councilmemb er Ortiz made a motion to waive further reading and introduce the ordinance; seconded by
Vice Mayor Colson. The motion passed unanimously by voice vote, 5-0.
Mayor Brownrigg opened the public hearing for public comment. No one spoke.
Councilmember Beach explained that the proposed amendment removed the 50/50 program where the City
pays 50% and the property owner pays 50% for repairs to the adjoining sidewalk. If the proposed
amendment is approved, the City would pay 100o/o. She stated that she is not in support of this ordinance.
She explained that the 50/50 program was generous because state law holds the property owner 100%
responsible for the sidewalk in front of their property.
Councilmember Beach stated that the 50/50 program provides the City with more funds to do what the
community requested: repair sidewalks and potholes. She expressed concern about the faimess of changing
the program when some residents already paid for repairs. She noted that in the list of things a property
owner pays, having to pay a few hundred dollars every 12 years for sidewalk repairs is not a huge ask.
Councilmember Beach stated that she believed that her colleagues approved of the City paying 100% of the
sidewalk repairs because of Measure I passing. However, she stated that she had some concerns about that
because she believed that the City told the community that Measure I funds would be used to repair more
sidewalks and streets. She explained that she felt the City was subsidizing the sidewalk repair program with
Measure I funds. Therefore, the City would have fewer Measure I funds to repair sidewalks and streets.
City Attorney Kane stated that the proposed amendment retained the state law provision concerning the
concurrent responsibility of the property owner to maintain their sidewalk. She explained that staff is just
removing the 50/50 mechanism. She stated that the ordinance retains the City's ability to give notice to the
property owner to repair their sidewalk. This would be used when the property owner has done something to
degrade the sidewalk ahead of its scheduled repair.

Councilmember Ortiz asked if Measure I specifically said what it was going to be used for. City Manager
Goldman explained that because Measure I was a general tax, the City was prohibited from saying what the
funds would be spent on. She noted that the campaign literature included discussion about street and
sidewalk repair.
DPW Murtuza stated that the change in the program allows staff to spend the funds that are used for
administrative work to fix sidewalks. He also stated that it would expedite repairs to sidewalks.
Mayor Brownrigg asked City Clerk Hassel-Shearer to publish notice of the proposed ordinance at least five
days prior to the proposed adoption.
10. STAFF REPORTS AND COMMUNICATIONS
a. PRESENTATION AND DISCUSSION F TRAFFIC. SAFETY AND PARKING
COMMISSION PRIORITIES
Commissioner Martos stated that TSPC was requesting input from the City Council on TSPC's proposed
priorities for the year. He stated that at the first meeting of the year, the Commission brainstorms on topics
that they would like to discuss that year. The priority list of 15 items was included in the staff report along
with the list of TSPC subcommittees and traffic engineering reports.
Commissioner Martos discussed the community led Bicycle Pedestrian Advisory Committee ("BPAC") and
stated that TSPC holds open an agenda item for them once a month.
Councilmember Ortiz thanked TSPC for their hardwork. He explained that downtown parking remains the
number one complaint he hears from the community. Additionally, he noted that after riding LimeBike, he
has become more aware of street safety issues. He stated that the City and TSPC need to continue to build
bike infrastructure for the community.
Councilmember Keighran asked for a clarification on TSPC's priority of "downtown modal access".
Commissioner Martos stated that this was related to promoting other modes of transportation to get to the
downtown areas like llber, LimeBike, shuttles, and walking.
Councilmember Keighran discussed the tenth priority: "public shuttles/transit". She voiced her support for
this item and stated that she wanted to see an east-west shuttle created.
Councilmember Keighran asked about TSPC's 13th priority "intro to paving." Commissioner Martos stated
this priority was an educational item for the Commission.
Councilmember Beach voiced her appreciation for TSPC having this conversation as it helps to assist in
outlining priorities and ensuring that all are on the same page. She explained that what she wanted to hear
from the Commission is what they believe are the three top things that the City needs to fix.

Councilmember Beach discussed downtown parking and stated that until Council and staff set aside funds to
study the issue and hire a consultant to better understand solutions, it won't get resolved.
Councilmember Beach reviewed TSPC's priority of updating the bike/pedestrian plan. She stated that this is
a top priority for her, as the City needs to become more accessible using alternative methods of
transportation. She explained that updating the bike/pedestrian plan will help to aid congestion and the
downtown parking issues.
Councilmember Beach thanked TSPC for prioritizing safe routes to schools and shuttles.
Councilmember Beach discussed TSPC's priority of grant opportunities. She stated that the professional
staff and consultants can help dial TSPC in on grant opportunities and the more technical aspects.
Commissioner Martos stated that the TSPC priority list is a rank order, therefore they likely won't get to
those at the bottom of the list. He added that they regularly attend the farmers market to obtain public
feedback.
Commissioner Martos stated that grant opportunities was on the priority list so that TSPC has advanced
notice and can plan for these opportunities. He stated that it is a regular quarterly item.
Councilmember Beach stated that the grants cycle through and that she agreed that TSPC should weigh in.
She explained that unless the City has a vision for what it wants to do, they won't get the gant. Therefore,
TSPC should work on their vision and then the City should apply for grants as they come up.
Vice Mayor Colson asked how the filming of the meetings is going. Commissioner Martos stated it was
good and it was important that their meetings be on the record.
Vice Mayor Colson asked if TSPC was looping in with Sustainability Coordinator Michael about the EV
charging stations and other issues. Commissioner Martos replied in the affirmative.
Mayor Brownrigg stated that the priority list is long. He explained that it would help him if there was
another line under each item, where the Commission's goal was outlined.
Mayor Brownrigg stated that he would like TSPC's help on two issues. The first is parking at the new
Community Center, which the Council will need to figure out in the near future. Secondly, he discussed the
possibility that the City may put a parking structure on Lot N and stated that it might be three, four, or five
stories. He asked for TSPC's input on the value of each additional level.
Mayor Brownrigg discussed the Lyon Hoag community concerns about traffic and parking. He stated that he
is committed to organizingasession where Council can talk with the community about options like the
residential parking permit program or traffic calming.

Subject: Adoption of an Ordinance Amending Title 12 of the Burlingame Municipal
Code to Update Chapter 12.12 "Sidewalk and Parkway Maintenance"
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached ordinance amending
Title 12 of the Burlingame Municipal Code to Update Chapter 12.12 "Sidewalk and Parkway
Maintenance" by:
1. Moving adoption of the proposed ordinance.
2. Directing the City Clerk to publish a summary of the ordinance within 15 days of adoption
BACKGROUND
At its December 4, 2017 meeting, the City Council received an update from staff regarding the
50/50 Sidewalk Repair Program, and the associated City Ordinance No. 1858-2010, which has
been in place since 2010. Staff identified the following major challenges associated with the 50/50
Sidewalk Repair Program:
High administrative costs due to the significant staff time involved with implementing the
program.
The provision in the program that ensures that affected property owners will not be
required to pay for sidewalk repairs within 12 years. The program is cycling through
repeated areas, and staff is increasingly finding that sidewalks that have been previously
repaired in the last six years need to be repaired again. This makes it extremely difficult to
implement the program in its current form.
The City Council discussed the issues associated with the 50/50 Sidewalk Program and reviewed
a number of options for the sidewalk repair program. After careful deliberation, and in
consideration of the fact that the City has additional resources to put towards sidewalk repair
thanks to the passage of Measure l, the City Council directed staff to proceed with a fully City-
funded sidewalk repair program to be implemented annually through the Capital lmprovement
Program (ClP) as may be approved by the City Council.

Adoption of an Ordinance Amending Title 12 of the Burlingame
Municipal Code, Chapter 12.12 "Sidewalk and Parkway Maintenance"
March 5, 2018
ln order to implement this direction, Tille 12 of the Burlingame Municipal Code needs to be
amended to remove the provisions relating to the 50/50 Sidewalk Repair Program. Staff has
accordingly prepared the attached Ordinance amending Chapter 12.12, Title 12 of the
Burlingame Municipal Code for Council's consideration. At the February 20th City Council
meeting, the Council introduced the proposed Ordinance and held a public hearing. After the
conclusion of the public hearing, the Council directed staff to bring the Ordinance back for
adoption.
FISCAL IMPACT
There are funds available in the current CIP from savings in prior years to cover the costs of the
next cycle of sidewalk repairs. Funding for future sidewalk repairs will need to be programmed in
future CIP budgets as may be approved by the City Council. Additionally, the recently passed
Measure I will provide additional funding for sidewalk repairs in future years.

City being better able to cover the costs of needed repairs from available funds; and
WHEREAS the City maintains over 1 16 miles of sidewalk and it is important that this sidewalk
infrastructure be properly maintained to protect public health and safety of pedestrians; and

STAFF REPORT AGENDANO: 10d
MEETING DATE: December 4,20'17
To:Honorable Mayor and City Council
Date: December 4,2017
From: Syed Murtuza, Darector of Public Works - (650) 558-7230
Subject: Gity Council Direction Regarding the 50/50 Sidewalk Repair Program
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council receive an update regarding the 50/50 Sidewalk Program
and provide direction to staff.
BACKGROUND
Prior to the 2001 economic downturn, sidewalk repairs were fully funded from the City's General
Fund. Due to declining General Fund revenues in the early to mid-2000s, the City Council
implemented a pilot sidewalk repair program that was fully funded by the adjoining property
owners in accordance with State regulations. This program resulted in strong opposition from
property owners and very high staff administrative costs to implement the program. As a result,
except for sidewalks fronting City properties and interim repairs consisting of asphalt patchings
and grindings, the City did not undertake major sidewalk repairs for the next several years.
ln an effort to address the continuing backlog of sidewalk repairs, in October 2010 the City
Council adopted the 50/50 Sidewalk Repair Program (SRP) in October 2010 (City Ordinance No.
1858-2010). The ordinance provides for sharing the costs of the sidewalk repairs at a 50/50
participation level between the City and the adjoining property owners, and dictates procedures
for implementing the program. The ordinance also includes a clause stating that property owners
who participated in the program would not be required to pay for the same sidewalk repairs again
for a period of 12 years.
DISCUSSION
The administrative costs associated with the 50/50 SRP have historically been more than double
those of the previous 100% City-funded sidewalk repairs program. The 50/50 SRP is extremely
process intensive and requires significant staff time dealing with hundreds of property owners to
obtain their buy-in to implement the program. ln accordance with the program procedures, staff
spends significant time performing initial field markings; preparing accurate sidewalk quantity
reports; issuing multiple notifications to hundreds of affected property owners of sidewalk repair
needs; providing estimates; meeting with property owners in groups and one-on-one to resolve
disputes and address concerns; updating individual property work-quantities as the work
progresses; and preparing the final report after completion of work. Due to these additional tasks
1
Council Direction Regarcling the 50/50 Sidewalk Repair Program December 4, 2017
and the number of properties typically involved in the program, it takes an additional 10 to 12
months of time to complete the project along with high administrative costs (see the attached
Sidewalk Program Adminishative Costs Analysis for details).
Since the implementation of the 50/50 SRP in 2010, the Public Works Department has
constructed over $2,500,000 of sidewalk repairs and ADA curb ramps improvements, and has
completed one full cycle of repairs covering the city. Overall, the 50/50 SRP was effective, as a
large majority of repairs have resulted in safe sidewalks for pedestrians' use throughout the city.
However, staff is now planning the next cycle of the sidewalk repairs and finding that significant
portions of sidewalks that need repairs are the same sidewalks that have been previously
repaired in the 50/50 program cycles in the last six years. This presents a major problem in
implementing the 50/50 SRP going forward as the current ordinance prohibits the City from
charging the adjoining property owners for the same sidewalk repairs for a period of 12 years.
Staff believes that significant additional administrative time will be needed to research and
differentiate each repair location to ensure the City is not charging the property owner for the
same sidewalks again. This task will be in addition to the various other tasks required to
implement the program as described above.
OPTIONS
Staff has identified three options for the City Council's consideration and direction
Ootion A - Continue with th e current 50/50 Proqram
The advantage of this option is that property owners are encouraged to participate in the
program, providing additional revenue to the City, though that revenue may be decreasing from
previous years due to the prohibition clause in the ordinance. The disadvantage of this option is
that it will take significantly longer to complete the project and will further increase administrative
costs because of the complexity of distinguishing between new repairs versus the recurring ones,
and increased risk exposure.
Ootion B - Revert back to the prev ious 100% Citv funded Prooram
The advantage of this option is that it will allow the City to expedite sidewalk repairs as there will
be no requirements to follow the time-intensive Streets and Highways Code procedures. As a
result, the administrative costs associated with sidewalk repairs could be significantly reduced,
along with reduced exposure of risk to the City. From the property owners' perspective, this may
be viewed as an advantageous option because they would not be required to pay for the sidewalk
repairs costs. However, from a financial perspective, the City would not be receiving the property
owners' contributions for their sidewalk repair costs.
OotionC-Modifvthe current 50/50 Proqram
This option retains much of the current sidewalk program in place, including the following the
Streets and Highways Code procedures. Under this option, the City would remove the clause in
the Ordinance that prohibits charging property owners for the recurring sidewalk repairs costs for
a period of 12 years. ln this option, all property owners, regardless of whether repairs were done
previously or not, would continue to pay for 50% of the costs of sidewalk repairs in front of their
properties. This option will remove the difficulties associated with identifying new repairs versus
2
Council Direction Regarding the 50/50 Sidewalk Repair Program December 4,2017
the recurring ones in front of affected properties. However, there will continue to be high
administrative costs, and repairs will take an inordinate length of time due to the need to follow
the Streets and Highways Code procedures. ln addition, the property owners who have
previously participated in the program may voice opposition to the program as they were
previously exempted from paying for the same sidewalk repairs for a period of 12 years.
FISCAL IMPACT
Staff anticipates that continuing with the current 50/50 Sidewalk Repair Program will result in
significantly higher administrative costs, while financial participation from adjoining property
owners may decrease due to repeat areas. Conversely, the administrative costs for
implementing the 100% City funded sidewalk program would be significantly less.

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COU}ICI OF'TIIE CITY OF BURLINGAME
AMENDING CHAPTER 12.12 OF T}IE BI]RLINGAME MUMCIPAL CODE
TO IMPLEMENT A CITY/PRTVATE PROPERTY OWNER SIIARED
SIDEWALK REPAIR PRO GRAM
The City Council of the City of Burlingame finds as follows:
Section 1. Factual background
The City maintains over 116 miles of sidewalk, a significant portion of which is aging
and is impacted by the tree roots resulting in cracks and separations requiring repair.
Providing fi'ontage access for Burlingame residents and businesses and serving as a
primary pedestrian facility, the sidewalks are an essential part of the City infrastructure,
It is ilnportant that the sidewalk infrastructure be ploperty maintained to protect the
public health and safety of the pedestrians and minimize liability to property owners and
the City as a whole, In the past year, the economic condition of the country, the State, the
region and the City of Burlingame, has deteriorated significantly. The stagnant economy
has had a direct effect on the ability of the City to taise tevenue tluough sales and
occupancy taxes to fund the maintenance and repair of City sidewalks'
The Califomia Streets and Highways Code requires that adjoining private property
owners maintain the sidewalks in front of theil property. In an effort to discover funds
for sidewalk repair, the Council evaluated several options. Aftel a complehensive
analysis of options available, the Council directed staff to proceed with a 50/50 sidewalk
repah pro$am with the objective of funding sidewalk repail in a manner that will reduce
the financial and logistical burden to both property owners and the City.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CrTY OF
BURLINGAME DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
Section 2. Amendment to Burlingame Municipal Code Chapter 12.12

Subject:Adoption of a Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Procure a
Prefabricated Restroom from CXT, Inc. and Execute an Agreement with
Timberline Engineering for the Site Preparation for the Washington Park
Restroom Project
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to
procure a prefabricated restroom from CXT, lnc. at a cost of $99,690.20 through the National
Joint Powers Alliance (NJPA) and execute an agreement with Timberline Engineering for the site
preparation for the Washington Park Restroom Project, City Project No. 85050, in the amount of
$10,650.
BACKGROUND
The existing restroom structure in Washington Park is 20 years old, in disrepair, and does not
meet current accessibility standards.
DISCUSSION
The City will purchase a prefabricated restroom from CXT directly through the NJPA, a
purchasing cooperative, at a cost of $99,690.20 (Exhibit B). NJPA is a procurement option for
local governmental agencies that establishes and provides nationally leveraged and competitively
solicited purchasing contracts under the guidance of the Uniform Municipal Contracting Law. The
product is then purchased directly from the manufacturer.
The new restroom structure will consist of two rooms with toilets and urinals, one changing table,
motion sensor LED lights, on demand water heater, stainless steel fixtures, hand dryers, and
soap dispensers (Exhibit C).
The site work (pad)was bid out in a lump sum proposal for all the labor and materials required to
complete the site work for the installation of the restroom structure. The City received three bids
(Exhibit D), ranging in price from $10,650 to $13,500. Timberline Engineering submitted the
lowest responsible bid in the amount of $10,650. The bid results were as follows:
1. Timberline Engineering $10,650

From: Syed Murtuza, Director of Public Works - (650) 558'7230
Subject: Adoption of a Resolution Awarding a Contract to Dewey Pest Control for
the Greek & Sewer Rodent Contro! Program
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution awarding a contract to
Dewey Pest Control for the Creek & Sewer Rodent Control Program for a period of three years in
the total amount of $104,284, and authorizing the City Manager to execute the same.
BACKGROUND
The City of Burlingame rodent control program aims to protect the community from rodent
problems by controlling and managing rodents that proliferate in the sanitary sewer system and
along the creeks and alleyways in the City's right-of-way. The City has been managing the
rodent control program for several decades based on the advice of the San Mateo County
Environmental Health Department, and now the San Mateo County Mosquito and Vector Control
District (SMCMVCD). The control program is a complementary piece of a much larger lntegrated
pest Management (lPM) strategy shared by the City and SMCMVCD. Each component of the
lpM serves a role in reducing rodents and the harmful pathogens they may transmit to humans.
The Public Works Department coordinates with SMCMVCD to employ a licensed pest control
company to manage rodent bait stations around the city. SMCMVCD acts as the quality control
agent for the project in addition to evaluating the effectiveness of the program. This proactive
and coordinated approach protects public health by reducing the rodents.
DISCUSSION
The project was advertised for bids on December 5,2017. On January 9,2018, the City received
a sealed bid from Dewey Pest Control in the amount of $104,284 to perform the work for a total
period of three years. Staff has reviewed their proposal and determined that the contractor has
met all the project requirements and has a successful past history of performing similar work for
the City of Burlingame and other public agencies. As a result, staff recommends that the City
Council award the contract to Dewey Pest Control.
The project scope of work consists of the installation, inspection, and replacement of rodent bait
stations at various locations in creeks and the sanitary sewer system network throughout the city.
1
Awarding a Contract to Dewey Pest Control for the
Creek & Sewer Rode nt Control Program
March 5,2018
Approximately 500 bait stations will be installed near creeks, and 150 will be installed in sewer
manholes. All work will be performed in coordination with the City of Burlingame and the San
Mateo County Mosquito & Vector Control District specifications and protocols.
The total price for the rodent control contract for a three-year period is $104,284. There are
adequate funds available in the Public Works Department's Operation and Maintenance Budget
to undertake the work for the current fiscal year. Funding for the following two years of rodent
control work will be programmed in future years' budgets.

frame and will notify the city's Proiect Manager of any manhole covers that rattle after
work has been complete.
One 8-oz bait block will be secured to the manhole using 16.5 gauge plastic-coated solid

longer to attach wire to inside of manhole, Existing nails inside of manholes may be
used as long as they are firmly attached and in serviceable condition. The bait blocks
shall be suspended from the tie-wire in such a manner that the bait clears the bottom of

bait block to obstruct the flow.

RAT BAlf' shall be used with each application to identify the bait.

identified manholes was prohibited because the manhole was paved over, had tight
fitting lid, was experlencing any discharge, or any other facto(s).

Four 1-ounce bait block (4-o! total) will be placed inside of a bait station which will be
secured to the creek bed using metal stakes. Protecta tamper-proof bait station with
key aqcess (or approved equal) will be used for each application.

with the other end anchored to 3/8 inch rebar staked driven no less than 10" in the
ground. A cautionary. staternent shall be prominently placed on each bait station that
shall read "Caution Bromadiolone Rat Bait, Do Not Disturb". Thls cautionary sticker will
also contain the contractors name and emergency contact information. The exact
installation location shall be selected by the contractor giving consideration to the
existing conditions at each site,

MEETING DATE: March 5,2018
To:Honorable Mayor and Gity Council
Date: March 5,2018
From: Sigalle Michael, Sustainability Coordinator - (650) 558-7261
Subject:Adoption of a Resolution Expressing Support for the Mayors for 100%
Clean Energy Campaign and Authorizing the Mayor to Sign Declarations
and Letters of Support on Behalf of the City Council that Align with the
City's Climate Action Goals
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution in support of the Mayors for 100o/o
Clean Energy campaign led by the Sierra Club and authorize the Mayor to sign future
declarations and letters of support on behalf of the City Council that align with the City's climate
action goals.
BACKGROUND
The Sierra Club is leading a campaign to encourage cities and communities across the country to
endorse using 100% renewable energy by the year 2050. To date, more than 200 mayors
nationwide have signed the endorsement letter, including the Mayors of Daly City, Portola Valley,
Palo Alto, tt/enlo Park, and San Jose. ln June 2017, the US Conference of lttlayors - a bipartisan
group of mayors from more than 250 cities - adopted a similar clean energy resolution
encouraging cities to go 100% renewable by 2035. These actions are intended to influence the
federal government and demonstrate cities' commitment to meeting the greenhouse gas
reductions established in the Paris Agreement. Mayors and local governments are seen as being
on the forefront of driving climate actions.
DISCUSSION
Signing the Mayors for 100% Clean Energy Endorsement affirms the City's commitment to
reducing greenhouse gas emissions and complements the City's ongoing climate actions
including, but not limited to:
Adopting a resolution last August in support of the Paris Climate Agreement and joining the
Climate Mayors Network - a network of mayors committed to meeting the Paris Agreement's
greenhouse gas reduction targets.
Joining Peninsula Clean Energy and enrolling the City's electricity accounts into the looo/o
renewable rate ECO100.

Resolution of SupporT for Climate Action Letters and Declarations March 5,2018
Updating the City's Climate Action Plan as part of the City's sustainability focused General
Plan update process.
Staff recommends adopting the proposed resolution expressing the City's support for the lt/ayors
for 100% Clean Energy initiative.
The proposed resolution also authorizes the Mayor, acting on behalf of the City Council, to sign
future declarations and letters of support that align with the City's climate actions. Staff
anticipates that additional local and national climate action campaigns may emerge and be of
interest to the City Council. The proposed resolution will allow the City Council to support and join
such efforts that support clean energy, clean transportation, clean water, zero waste, green
building, and pollution prevention.

l, Mayor of support a
goal of lOO percent clean, renewable energy in my city and across the United States.
I believe that a transition to lOO percent clean
energy is good for my community: lt will make
us stronger, healthier, and more resilient; it will

will allow us to become a more equitable society
where everyone has opportunity in a thriving local
economy.
Nearly 2OO nations have agreed, for the first time

renewable energy by the end of this century. ln the
United States, action by local government is already
a significant driver of renewable energy growth
because cities know firsthand that steps to reduce
carbon emissions, clean the air, strengthen the
economy, and improve lives.
Positive, bipartisan, community-driven solutions are
possible and already happening in our community.
I will continue to work with all stakeholders
to transrtion away from dirty energy and
implement local, affordable solutions like energy
efficiency, solar, wind, and pollution-free electric
transportation.

I hereby pledge to work with my community to realize a vision of lOO percent renewable

Exhibit B
Anson Burlingame: Prototypical Californian
A nson Burlingame, 1 820 - 1 870, was a political and diplomatic pioneer. A brilliant political omtor, Burlingame was outspoken against slav€ry, e champion of
free speech, and an advocate for tr€ating all people and natioru equally. Burlingame's posilions were mosdy ah€ad ofhis time; ihey resonate in oufs.
Burli;gme has been called a "messianic believer in American democracy"r but he was also, in ma[y ways, a Prctot]?icsl Califomiarl
Bu ingame rose from modest roots; his father was a farmer and preacher. Wo*ing his wsy lhrough the UniveBity ofMichigdn and then Harvard Law, Budingame
became known for his omtorical skills, which he later used to get etected to the Massachusetts State legislatwe (1852) and then to Congess (1854). His 1856 sp€€ch in
the House against slavery and for free speech became widely quoted; it also elicited a challenge to dual by a souihem congressman, which Burlingame accepted. When
the southemer failed to show up, Burlingeme's reputalion as a man who stood by his principles was sealed.
Budingarne sensed the end ofthe mig Party and helped cofound lhe R@ublican Party in Massdchusetts to fight slav€ry's expansion in the US. As one of the new
party's finest speakers, he was sent around the young country in 1860 to carnpaign for Republican c€ndidate Abraham Lincoln, to such a degree that he lost his own
congessional s€at. President Lincoln soon found a mle, howe!'er, for young Burlingame (lhenjust 41): Lincoln appointed him to be the filst full time Ambassador to
China, a nation that itself was going through !-ansformational change.
Albeit a diplomatio amateur, Budingame rclied on his sense of equality and faim€ss as he coDstructed relatrons between one of the oldest nations on earth and one of the
young€st. His actions eamed the trust ofthe Chinese govenment, to such a deglee that China sided with tlrc Union and denied access to its ports for south€m ships;
Chin6 also opened its market to US railroads and othel enterpdses. lndeed, such was the trust the Chinese Govemment had in Burlingame that, upon his tenn coming to
an end in 1E66, they asked him to be t eir envoy back to lhe USA and to the European Powers, a unique du.lity in diplomatic history.
Burlingame recast the "unequal featies" that Westem poweE had forced on China, creating a new Us{hina treaty based on the pdnciples offiutusl rcspecl and Most
Favorcd Nation status. This became the Burlingame-S€ward Trcaty of 1868. The impofiance snd novelty of this canrct be overernphasized: it was the first equal treaty
China had sign€d wilh any major power.
Wlut is his connection to the Bay Area? On one of Burlingame's hips between China and Washington DC, he stopped in San Fmncisc-{J, where he visited with a
charismatic landholder aod banker, William Ralston (founder of the Bank ofcalifomia). Burlingame accept€d Ralston's invitation to acquiG lard on the Peninsula no(t
to Ralston's owr rsnch in BelrnonP, aad made plans to retire there. The l20O acIes that Budingame acquired were m narned "Burlingame" by RalstorL and although
Anson Budingame would die in diplomatic service before he could rctirc, this is why our City now bears his name.
No less an American icon than Mark Twain saw fit to write Anson Burlingame's obituary, in *fiich he said:
"For he had outgrown the narrow citizenship of a state and become a citizen of the world; and his charity was large
enough and his great heart warm enough to feel for all its races and to labor for them. He was a good man, and a very,
very great man. America lost a son, and all the world a servant, when he died.'o
We, the people of Burlingamq Califomia, are Eoud to be linked to a man so far ahead ofhis own time and yet so suited to the prcs€nt day. We hoDor hi$ valu€s, which
arc timeless.
Done on the 1506 Anniv€rsary of the Burlingame-Seward Treaty of 1868, amending the treaty b€twe€D the UDited States of America and lhe Ta Tshg Empirc (China) of
the 18th June, 185E.

Subject: lntroduction of an Ordinance Amending Chapter 13.52 of the Burlingame
Municipal Cod e Regarding Reg ulation of Bicycles
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council consider the introduction of an ordinance amending
Chapter 13.52 of the Burlingame Municipal Code to eliminate the requirement for locally issued
bicycle licenses and update the Code to reflect current state law and best practices regarding the
regulation of bicycles within the city. ln order to do so, the Council should:
A. Receive the staff report and ask any questions of staff'
B. Request that the City Clerk read the title of the proposed ordinance.
c. By motion, waive further reading and introduce the ordinance.
D. Conduct a Public hearing.
E. Following the public hearing, discuss the ordinance and determine whether to bring it back
for second reading and adoption. lf the Council is in favor of the ordinance, direct the City
Clerk to publish a summary of the ordinance at least five days before its proposed
adoption.
BACKGROUND
City staff, the Traffic, Safety and Parking Commission (TSPC), and the Parks and Recreation
Commission have recenly reviewed Burlingame Municipal Code Chapter 13.52. That chapter was
determined to be in need of updating in light of current state law and best practices for regional cities.
The current regulations require bicyclists to register their bikes with the Police Department,
although the Department no longer receives requests for licenses. The regulations also prohibit
riding bicycles in parks, including by children learning to ride, and further prohibit baby and child
seats. The regulations have also become inconsistent in certain areas with state codes regarding
how to ride bicycles on streets and roads.
The TSPC and Parks and Recreation Commission reviewed the existing and proposed
ordinances, and their recommendations are incorporated in the attached draft. Staff notes that
the parks and Recreation's proposed language is incorporated as it pertains to parks, rather than
1
Ordinance Amending Bicycle Regulations March 5, 2018
the language discussed at the TSPC, since the regulation of activities within parks is in the former
commission's more direct authority.
DISCUSSION
Several portions of the existing Chapter 13.52 are recommended for removal. All requirements
for a local City license would be deleted under the recommended amendment (Sections
13.52.010, 13.52.020, 13.52.030, 13.52.080, and a portion of 13.52.160). Other portions of the
code would be removed or significantly modified, such as those relating to transfer of ownership
(13.52.040, 13.52.050) and lost or stolen bikes (13.52.060). The code would be updated to
include the standards for safe bicycle riding set forth in the California Vehicle Code. Further,
baby and child seats would be permitted, as would riding bicycles in parks with the requirement
that cyclists yield to pedestrians.
Staff strongly recommends removal of the license requirement (with its related provisions) and
bringing the code into conformance with the relevant California Vehicle Code provisions.
Council's input on the other policy decisions embedded in the attached proposed amendment is
welcome, and the ordinance can be re-introduced if any further revisions are deemed necessary.
FISCAL IMPACT
None. The City currently does not collect licensing fees from bicyclists; the other suggested
revisions are to regulations that do not affect revenue'

Subject: City Counci! Policy Direction Regarding Placement of Wireless Cell
Antennas on City-Owned Utility Poles
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council review information pertaining to the placement of wireless
cell antennas and related equipment on City-owned utility poles, and provide direction to staff.
BACKGROUND
ln recent years, wireless telecommunication service providers such as AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile,
and others have said that they are experiencing increased customer demand, particularly with
respect to data capacity and wireless broadband speed. As a result, they wish to deploy new
wireless communication antenna and related equipment in the city to meet not only the current
data demands but to prepare for 5G (Sth Generation) technology. The providers believe that the
deployment of wireless small cell antennas on street light poles will enhance wireless broadband
services and benefit Burlingame's residents, businesses, visitors, first responders, and
emergency communication.
ln the last few years, the City has received multiple inquiries from wireless service providers
regarding their interest in placing small cell wireless antennas and related equipment within the
public right-of-way on City-owned street lights and traffic signals and on PG&E-owned wooden
poles. Typically, small cell antennas are placed in densely populated areas that need additional
network capacity, such as downtowns, heavily used traffic corridors or areas that cannot be
effectively served by traditional macro cells. These small cell wireless antennas are not intended
to replace macro cell sites, but to fill in areas that do not have sufficient capacity. lllustrations of
typical small cell wireless antennas and equipment are shown in the attached Exhibit A.
Wireless telecommunications facilities are licensed and regulated by the California Public Utilities
Commission and the Federal Telecommunications Act of 1996. A city can, within reasonable
limits, control the time, place, and manner of installation, provided the local restrictions do not
impede the provision of service.
Recognizing that the City must act thoughtfully and carefully in a field with rapidly evolving
technology, the City has established policy, standards, and procedures related to such proposals.
ln 2012, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1870 entitled "Wireless Communications
1
City Council Policy Direction Regarding Placement of
Wireless Cell Antennas on City Owned Utility Poles
March 5,2018
Facilities" to guide and facilitate modernization of Burlingame's communications infrastructure.
The purpose of the ordinance is to provide a process to regulate and control the placement of
wireless communications facilities from the perspective of time, place, and manner in compliance
with State and Federal regulations.
DISGUSSION
On February 1,2018, the City received a letterfrom Wireless Policy Group, LLC, on behalf of
AT&T, requesting the City's approvalto install small cell wireless antennas and related equipment
on eight City-owned street light poles (see attached Exhibit 8.1 and 8.2). (Other providers have
also contacted the City in the past but have not submitted formal requests.) Additionally, staff is
in the midst of processing Conditional Use Permit applications from AT&T to install seven other
small cell antennas on PG&E-owned wooden poles. The total number of antennas and pole
counts will very likely increase as network traffic demand continues to grow.
The City currently has a total of approximately 1,990 street lights; 900 of these are on wooden
poles owned and operated by PG&E, while the remaining 1,090 are on metal/concrete poles
owned and operated by the City, located in streets, City parking lots, and parks. ln addition, the
City owns and operates approximately 40 traffic signal poles.
Under the current regulations, it is within the City's discretion to allow leasing of City-owned utility
poles for the placement of wireless telecommunications facilities. Should the City Council be
amenable to allowing the placement of these antennas and related equipment on City-owned
facilities, then prior to allowing such installations, staff recommends the development of
comprehensive and well thought-out policies and guidelines in order to properly and consistently
review and process applications. Policies and guidelines should, at a minimum, address the
following:
. Preservation and maintenance of local aesthetics;
o Minimizing cluttering of public right-of-way associated with the installation of freestanding
equipment cabinets and sidewalk compliance with ADA requirements;
o Compliance with Federal Communications Commission allowable safety limits for RF
(radio frequency) exposure, including exposure levels to City staff maintaining street
lights;
o Minimizing obstruction and limiting of City's use of poles, such as signage for street name,
parking, traffic, and community event banners;
. Avoiding conflicts with existing and planned City-owned utilities;
. Limiting placement on City-owned street poles to acceptable districts;
. Limiting number of wireless facilities allowed within specific distance from each other;
. Provisions for standard Master Lease Agreement, including but not limited to
maintenance, liability, repair, and abandonment; and
o Administration fees, deposits, and leasing fee schedule.
2
March 5, 2018
Additionally, under the current Wireless Communications Facilities Ordinance, applicants are
required to demonstrate their best efforts to comply with the location preference order when
determining the location installation. Per the ordinance, placement on existing utility distribution
poles and streetlights is low in preference, if not the lowest in certain areas. The attached
Community Development Department Memorandum provides additional information on the
location preference (see attached Exhibit C).
Staff surveyed several local agencies to find out how they are dealing with these types of
requests. Staff finds that most agencies surveyed have been approached by wireless service
providers requesting installation of wireless communication facilities on City-owned utility poles.
Many agencies have in place, or are in the process of developing, policies and guidelines to
process such requests. Agencies that have approved installations have established some form of
lease agreement with fee mechanism. Typical annual lease rate ranges from $1,200 to $2,000
per pole with built-in escalators. A summary of the survey is attached as Exhibit D. Additional
information and definitions regarding wireless antennas is contained in the FAQs document
(Exhibit E).
F!SCAL IMPACT
Should the City Council elect not to allow placement of wireless communications facilities on City-
owned street lights poles and traffic signal poles, there is no fiscal impact. However, if the City
Council wishes to allow placement of cell antennas and related equipment on City-owned street
lights and traffic signal poles, a comprehensive policy needs to be developed, which would
require the commitment of significant staff time and resources to the project. This would entail
taking staff time and resources away from existing and planned projects, and will also require
help from outside experts for legal and technical guidance to properly develop policies, perform
public outreach, and amend the existing City ordinance. Once the policies are in place, however,
lease revenues from the installations could offset or exceed the costs of that initial work. At this
time it is difficult to assess the fiscal impact of undertaking this effort.

RE:City of Burlingame - Proposed Master Attachment Agreement for AT&T Sma!! Ce!! Use of City
Owned Light Poles
Dear Lisa,
I am writing this letter on behalf of AT&T Mobility in Northern California ("AT&T"). AT&T is requesting approval
for small cell installations on City owned light poles. AT&T understands that there is no agreement or guidelines
in place regulating such installations in Burlingame and proposes to use the AT&T template agreement enclosed
with this letter and previously provided to staff. We've also attached a couple of small cell sample designs
showing antenna and equipment located on City owned light poles. Additional specifications and potential
location details can be provided to the City as needed throughout the process although this information should
be considered as potential and not firm until permit applications are submitted or a pole reservation process
commits them to AT&T.
AT&T believe that Burlingame, like many bay area cities, would like to be a leader in the deployment of small
cells, wireless broadband services, and 5G technology for the benefit of its residents, businesses, visitors, and
first responders/emergency services personnel. AT&T shares this goal, and is prepared to invest significantly in
small cell technology throughout the City to enhance its network capabilities. AT&T currently has planned use
of eight (8) City owned light poles, although this count may change once the actual poles go thru structural and
other engineering processes. lt is important to understand that the actual pole counts for AT&T and other
carriers will fluctuate and very likely increase as network traffic continues to grow.
We request that the City consider the following as it approaches small cell pole attachment agreements
Skyrocketing demand for wireless technology:
AT&T and other carriers are responding to a significant increase in demand for wireless services. For example:
o Since 2007, AT&T has seen data usage on its network increase by 250,000 percent.l
o Over half (50.8%) of American homes no longer use traditional landline telephone service and instead
choose to use wireless only.2
t http ://a bout.att.com/story/att-details-5g-evolution.html
2 CDC Wireless Substitution: Early Release of Estimates from the National Health lnterview Survey, July-December 201.6 (released May 20L7).
More than two-thirds of American adults aged 25-29 (72.7%l and aged 30-34 (77%\ live in households
with only wireless telephones.3
To meet the skyrocketing demand in residential areas, better serve businesses, and enhance public safety,
carriers need viable options for siting new facilities in a way that will provide meaningful coverage and capacity
and high-quality service. Small cell facilities can add much-needed capacity, and in some cases coverage, to
targeted areas with mlnimal impacts to the community.
Unique benefits for first responders and the public safety community:
Furthermore, mobile communications are a critical tool for first responders in emergency situations. According
to the Federal Communications Commission ("FCC"), nearly 70 percent of 91L calls are made from wireless
phones and that percentage is expected to continue to grow.a
The increased wireless data speeds and improved call quality that small cells provide could complement next-
generation 9-1-1 and emergency response services to improve public safety. We ask that the City consider the
important public safety benefits that increased network capacity can provide, particularly in dense urban areas.
AT&T and it's consultant, Mr. Cliff Fitterer of the Wireless Policy Group, LLC, looks forward to working with you
on next steps to initate the appropriate agreement a nd processes for a llowing these small cell attachments. We
look forward to developing our partnership with the City of Burlingame. Please let either Cliff or I know if you
have any questions.
Very truly yours,

Common Terms associated with Wireless Telecommunications Facilities
DAS - Acronym for a Distributed Antenna System. A network of antennas and equipment enclosures usually
attached to poles in the public right-of-way.
"Macro" Wireless Telecommunication Services (WTS) Facility - Typically three to sixteen panel antennas
mounted on the roof of a building or on a cell tower, along with multiple equipment cabinets.
"Micro" Wireless Telecommunications Services (WTS) Facility - Typically one or two antennas mounted on
the roof of a building
Public Right of Way (PROW) - Typically refers to public streets, sidewalks and easements, where light and
utility poles are placed.
Small Cells - Are similar to DAS, though they have a different communications network architecture
1. What are small cellfacilities?
Small cells are single small antenna placed on existing utility poles or street light poles along with small pole
mounted radios and other accessory equipment. Small cells on utility poles are typically consist of one 4-foot tall
by14-inch diameterantenna mounted on top of the pole and a numberof smallboxes consisting of radios, electric
meter, a disconnect switch and a fiber box placed further down the pole. Other related equipment such as a
standalone cabinet or equipment pedestal in the sidewalk may be required.
2. Why are these facilities being requested for installation now?
Small cells are the most recent progression of wireless radio technology and are part of the strategy by wireless
services providers to increase their network capacity and improve their coverage, allowing wireless providers to
support more user and faster mobile broadband speeds. lt is expected that over the next few years, the roll-out of
next-generation 5G wireless will require the deployment of many more antennas.
3. What is the range of these systems?
On average, small cell and DAS have an approximate range of 150 to 500 feet. The wide range is a result of
factors such as mounting height, different power output (either 66, 100, or L74 watts), and objects that can
potentially block the signal such as trees or buildings. For comparison purposes, a typical rooftop-mounted
"macto" facility, with higher power usage (e.g. 10,000+ watts), and a higher mounting location; can have a range
of between a mile in a rural area, or down to a quarter mile in a more urban area.

TEL: (650) 5s8-7200 FAX: (650) 696-'1598
4. Can more than one wireless carrier be placed on a single pole?
While it is possible for more than one wireless carrier to "share" a single antenna, wireless carriers typically seek
separate equipment enclosures for each system. The cumulative effect of multiple equipment enclosures may
result a cluttered design that would not be viable or aesthetically pleasing.
5. What about safety from radio frequency (RF) emissions?
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC), in consultation with numerous other federal agencies, including
the Environmental Protection Agency, the Food and Drug Administration, and the Occupational Safety and
Health Administration, has developed safety standards. According to the FCC, the standards were developed by
expert scientists and engineers after extensive reviews of the scientific literature related to RF and biological
effects. The FCC explains that its standards "incorporate prudent margins of safety." lt explains further that
"radio frequency emissions from antennas used for cellular and PCS transmissions result in exposure levels on
the ground that are typically thousands of times below safety limits." The FCC provides information about the
safety of wireless facilities and safety of RF emissions from cellular base stations on its website:
. http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety/rf-faqs.html
' https://www.fcc.gov/genera l/tower-a nd-a nte n n a-siting
Additional information can be obtained from the American Cancer Society at:
https://www. ca ncer.org/ca ncer/ca ncer-ca uses/ra d iation-exposu re/cellu la r-phone-towers. htm l,
Under federal law (1995 Telecommunications Act), the City is prohibited from denying a permit to construct a
wireless facility based on health concerns over RF emissions, provided that the emissions from the facility
comply with standards set by the FCC. To assure compliance with FCC standards, the City can require field
testing for each facility or each time a modification is proposed and implement additional measures to ensure
the facility meets FCC standards.

Meaghan Hassel-Shearer, Gity Clerk - (650) 558'7203
City Council Direction on Request to Allocate Funds for the Operation
Easle Visit - Homecominq 50 Years Celebration
RECOMMENDATION
Staff requests direction from the City Council concerning San Mateo's request for contributions to
the Operation Eagle Visit - Homecoming 50 Years Celebration.
BAC UND
ln March 1968, the City of San Mateo adopted A Company of the 101't Airborne (Air Assault)first
brigade, 327th regiment. The City of Burlingame adopted its unit (11327 B Company, 101't
Airborne, Air Assault) in 2004.
ln 2012, the Cities of San Mateo, Burlingame, and Hillsborough welcomed soldiers from their
adopted units to the area for celebrations. Since that time, six other Peninsula cities have
adopted units in this brigade. The City of San ltlateo is now spearheading a 50th Anniversary
celebration scheduled for the evening of March 22 through mid-day on March 25. The
celebration includes several group events throughout the weekend as well as an opportunity for
the representatives of each unit to visit their city for about five hours on Friday, N4arch 23.
Central County Fire Department Captain Ryan Klarich served as the City's liaison to the unit in
2012 and has volunteered to assist with this year's celebration. lnitially, Captain Klarich and City
staff were planning a lunchtime barbecue in Washington Park. More recently, Captain Klarich and
the liaisons from the Town of Hillsborough and the City of Millbrae decided to partner together to
host the following events for the soldiers from the three communities:
11:30 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
Thank you event for all three cities at Mills High School, including a performance by tr/illbrae
students and the presentation of a book of thank you letters from Burlingame Elementary School
students. City representatives can say a quick thank you to the soldiers if they are so inclined.
12:00 p.m. - 5:30 p.m.:
Bus tour of San Francisco with soldiers from all three cities; interested elected officials are invited
to join the tour.

Operation Eagle Visit March 5,2018
DISCUSSION
San Mateo's City Clerk recently fonruarded a request from San Mateo Councilmember Maureen
Freschet that all participating cities help fund the Operation Eagle weekend of events. The City of
San Mateo is hoping to raise $125,000 but was $50,000 short of that goal as of February 23,
2018. The request noted that San Mateo is undenvriting all the fundraising administrative costs
associated with the weekend and absorbing staffing and direct costs for the various public events.
The City of San Carlos has agreed to contribute $10,000 to undenrurite the events.
The City of Belmont has decided to allocate $10,000 to defray costs associated with the events,
potentially including the costs of their community events and banquet tickets.
Additionally, the City of Millbrae is considering making a contribution to the events.
Staff is asking City Council for direction on the following questions:
1. Should additional funds, beyond the $5,000 requested in the February 5,2018 staff report,
be allocated for these events;
2. lf the City Council decides that funds should be allocated, what amount; and
3. Should all of the additional funds be given to San Mateo to help underurrite the events or
should the funds be used, like Belmont, to defray costs associated with the events.
FISCAL IMPACT
Should the City Council choose to contribute funds, there are sufficient monies available in the
City Manager's Office contingency budget for this purpose. No additional appropriation is
required.

School/City Liaison Meeting February 26.2018
Summary
Detailed
1. Hoover Conversation - Nothing much on Easton, Summit received a grant and
construction will start summ er 2109.lt is going to bid to do this work and if we get
high bids we should be fine. Has to be finished in the summer. Scope of the project -
sidewalk from Hillside Circle to Hoover to replace south side of sidewalks, some
reconstruct of bridge and existing gutter that will require work because of change
grades. Four residents will be impacted. Started with Summit as the primary access
due to districting and student travel patterns. Easton is more complex because we
share with Hillsborough and the loss of parking is a problem. Our counts are that
more are from Summit. But MI mentioned that people park on Easton and then walk,
so that is for PTA meetings. MM mentions the newer students and parents showing
up for event. Some also think there is somewhere that parents want to park on Easton
and then walk their kids to school. Art mentioned that there will be more parking on
Summit when the work is done.
2. Traffic around Hoover - Complaint about Summit queuing - sent a picture to show
that they are getting stuck in their driveway. We will send staff out and evaluate the

Hoover sidewalk work will focus on Summit side and start/complete in summer of

Traffic Around Hoover - queuing and driving wrong way has been problem. Lisa
indicated she would direct increased PD to monitor.
Housing - Reviewed the housing legislation from 2077 and how it might impact us.
Discussion around how we might jointly lobby around housing issues including
making sure we are able to fund new schools to accommodate growth. Consider a
working group.
Turf Fields are done and with the exception of needing to increase drainage at
Franklin. Margaret is working to take care of any issues for Murray that we learned
from these other two fields.
Enrichment programs - Running well, and making sure that we have communications
set up between sites and PR.
Colson Committee Report March 5, 2018
issue. MI - the signage from Easton corridor and people do not obey. The issue is
there a way to do a sign that is more prominent. Is there a chance to put a light - there
is a blinking light set for the hours of closure at this time. So there is something there
that brings attention - yellow is the blinking. Can we switch light to red?
3. Housing - General Plan, last year's housing and next year's housing. General Plan - we
are working on the EIR and there is a short holdup on the traffic modeling with the
local and the regional. EIR will allow us to look at alternatives including considering
different changes in the community. Include or do not include RR in housing, density
on North ECR or not. There are some state mandates and then policy including the
RHNA numbers as the baseline. To the degree that the city can exceed to address
regional issues with housing allows us to look at alternatives. Hope this to be done in
April and hearings in May. Planning Commission and City Council hearings. Planning
Commission will make a recommendation and the City Council will make the decision.
There is a 45 day comment period with formal notification. Within that period is a
public hearing to make oral or written comments - this is about mid-way so people
can comment and then can send a letter and both are allowed.
4. City is being forced from the State and above to increase affordable housing mandates
- Housing Accountability Act - we cannot deny or reduce number of units other than
objective housing standards. Add on the potential to increase building heights and
density heights. One upside is that as ECR is narrower then the rest of the highway so
45 feet wide. Also Weiner wants to double the RHNA numbers - 863 has to find
enough sites and in theory we can find and we are obligated to fit the zoning. If we
now have to show 2x as much, but on paper
5. Update on Turf Fields - Five year agreement with one year terms and then extension.
Field Turf maintains the fields but having some drainage problems around Franklin
field at the edge of the field. Brock pad is what is draining the water off so quickly.
First Tuesday and first Wednesday are the maintenance days. The users really enjoy
the new field and fewer complaints about the cork remnants. About $18K per year of
cost.
6. Location for LimeBike drop offs. Working to set up an off campus designated location.
Meaghan Culford is the LimeBike regional GM.
7. Sigalle met with the school about PCE, LimeBike and EV chargers.
8. Enrichment Sports Program - Supervision conversation has to do with whoever is the
last coach or teacher, they cannot leave the kids unattended. Early release time at one
site that we may need to adjust. Working with Tim to let him know that they are
modernizing the gyms and they may not be available for rentals. $25,000 per site, five
sites for installation and $40,000 for the engineering.
9. Items for Good of 0rder - State mandated water testing for schools on site and we
now have a sample plan and proposed dates to do that test. Non-detect everywhere
and had one BIS under, but still showing and so we took it out of commission. BIS also
getting asbestos and worried that some of this gym is getting friable and so looking
into this as well.

Subject: CommitteeReport
Thursday February 22. 2018
I attended the Learning Network Meeting sponsored by Home for All. A few cities shared
what they are doing to provide additional affordable housing in their community.
Burlingame was the spotlight city discussed during this meeting. Kevin Gardiner and I talked
about the highlights of the community meeting that was held on the 1Oth of February.
The consultants then provided the opportunity for attendees to practice and listen to people
identify interests and values they have regarding housing. The participants then tried to
respond to concerns people may have regarding housing concerns in a thoughtful
framework. The framework would entail a cause, links to the cause, consequences and a
potential solution.
For Example:
Cause: Jobs housing gap has led to a shortage of housing
Link 1: The difference between the number of jobs and the number of housing units has led
to a shortage of affordable quality rental and for sale housing units.
Link 2: Because of the shortage, the cost of housing has increased at all levels, making it
difficult for residents to afford housing
Consequence: the quality of life in San Mateo County and in our city has been negatively
impacted because more residents have to move away from the bay area to afford quality
housing.
Solution: Increase the number of housing units available to San Mateo County workers using
a variety of approaches including higher density, ADU's, transit oriented development and
funding more affordable housing
This exercise gave people the opportunity to really frame their messages regarding the
shortage of housing when they talk with their community.

We also reviewed our Work Plan for FY Z0L7-2018. Some of the projects the group has
worked on this past year include:
o Developing and Implementing communications and marketing plan
o Developing community partners support for Home for All ( 16 cities published
resolutions including Burlingame
o Community Engagement Pilot Projects: Burlingame being one of the cities
o Home for All Champions Speakers Bureau I Launched in January 2018)
. Showcase smart growth and profiles and personal stories
This group has been quite busy this past year and plans on doing a lot of outreach again this
year. The mission of this group is to establish a climate where a diversity of housing is
produced and preserved, The overall goal is to achieve a steadily declining ration of New
Jobs vs. New Housing
