Mayor Nagel thanked FinDir Augustine and Deputy Finance Director Diane Troung for such a comprehensive report and all the effort that went into it. Mayor Nagel noted the increases in revenue from the hotel transient occupancy tax and the increases in the sales tax, due in large part to the automobile dealers. Mayor Nagel commented that the sales tax from the businesses on Burlingame Avenue increased over last year in spite of the streetscape construction. She also commented that the sales tax from the businesses on Broadway had increased from a year ago. Mayor Nagel opened the item for public comment and there were no comments. Councilmember Ortiz commented that he and Councilmember Root had a very productive meeting with staff and the auditor. Councilmember Keighran noted that she was glad to see the decrease in compensation overtime for public safety employees. She also noted that the transient occupancy tax had reached an all time high and it might be worthwhile to meet with the hotel managers and get their thoughts about how long Burlingame City Council January 20, 2015 Unapproved Minutes that might continue. Councilmember Keigbran was also pleased that there was an increase in the parking fund revenue over last year. Councilmember Ortiz made a motion to accept the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report for the year ended June 30, 2013; seconded by Councilmember Root.

Ms. Augustine advised that the current rates that have been in place since 2012 fully cover all anticipated costs of providing solid waste services in calendar year 2015; therefore no rate adjustment is needed. FinDir Augustine provided a handout showing a comparison of the solid waste rates for neighboring cities and Vice Mayor Keigbran requested that this information be included in an upcoming a -news. Mayor Nagel opened the item for public comment and there were no comments. d. CONSIDERATION OF ESTABLISHING A "WHISTLEBLOWER HOTLINE" CM Goldman reviewed the staff report and advised that during the future agenda item portion of a City Council agenda in late 2014, then Vice Mayor Nagel asked that the City consider establishing a whistleblower hotline as a means of residents reporting concerns about the City but were uncomfortable reporting those concerns to staff. Mayor Nagel made a motion to establish the whistleblower hotline; seconded by Councilmember Root. Councilmember Ortiz commented that he would not support it since there are sufficient avenues that already exist for citizens to report concerns to the City. Vice Mayor Keighran also did not support it since she said Burlingame City Council January 20, 2015 Unapproved Minutes the City already has options for people to voice their complaints and why add one more. Mayor Nagel withdrew her motion and asked Councilmember Ortiz if he had a suggestion for another way that might be preferable. Mr. Ortiz expressed concern that should a Burlingame employee want to blow the whistle on a coworker, they might be discouraged to report it to another high-ranking City official. He said if a hotline were established, it would be preferable for a third party to receive the calls. Mayor Nagel said that since there was not agreement, this issue was tabled, but hoped there could be further discussion at another time. 11. COUNCIL COMMITTEE AND ACTIVITIES REPORTS AND ANNOUNCEMENTS Council reported on various events and committee meetings they each attended on behalf of the City. 12.

Conduct a public hearing and consider all public testimony related to the proposed Circulation Element. 2. Following conclusion of the public hearing, discuss the proposed Circulation Element and provide suggestions for further changes if desired; and 3. Adopt the following Resolution, by title only: "Resolution of the City Council of the City of Burlingame Approving Amendments to the Circulation Element of the Burlingame General Plan to Comply with State Law Requiring Compliance with the California Complete Streets Act Of 2008" BACKGROUND In September 2008, the California Complete Streets Act became law, codified as Government Code sections 65302(b)(2)(A) and (B). The Act requires that: • Commencing on January 1, 2011, upon any substantial revision of the circulation element, the legislative body shall modify the circulation element to plan for a balanced, multi -modal transportation network that meets the needs of all users of the streets, roads, and highways for safe and convenient travel in a manner that is suitable to the rural, suburban, or urban context of the general plan. • For purposes of this paragraph, "users of streets, roads, and highways" means bicyclists, children, persons with disabilities, motorists, movers of commercial goods, pedestrians, users of public transportation, and seniors. 1 General Plan Circulation Element Update February 2, 2015 The City's current General Plan Circulation Element was part of the original adoption of the General Plan in 1969 (Resolution No. 87-69). Since that time the City has updated its circulation and transportation policies and programs through a series of policy documents and specific plans. Taken together, these documents represent a citywide approach to a balanced, multi -modal transportation network in the manner of Complete Streets. This spring the City will be embarking on a comprehensive update of its General Plan, including the Circulation Element. The process is anticipated to take approximately two years. However, the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) has restricted future eligibility for certain federal transportation monies (One Bay Area Grant (OBAG) funds) to communities that have achieved the following by January 31, 2015: A Housing Element certified by the State Department of Housing & Community Development as "in compliance" with state statutes (completed); and • A Circulation Element that contains adequate "Complete Streets" policies and concepts. Given the timing of the General Plan Update, last year staff determined that a new Circulation Element would not be ready within this timeframe. In order to preserve the City's eligibility for the next round of OBAG funding, staff has prepared an interim update that reflects existing Complete Streets policies and programs already adopted in the various specific plans and other policy documents. This effort consolidates currently adopted Complete Streets policies, essentially serving as an "existing conditions" overview to build upon, but with an expectation that there will be additional work in the future as the other General Plan elements are updated. While the January 31, 2015 deadline has passed, the City will remain eligible for OBAG funding given that the process is underway and adoption of the element is imminent. DISCUSSION Although the current Circulation Element of the General Plan was adopted by the City Council as a part of the original adoption of the General Plan several decades ago, there are a number of other policy documents related to circulation that have been adopted over the intervening years. These documents consist of: • Complete Streets Policy of the City of Burlingame — adopted by the City Council on November 5, 2012, by Resolution No. 77-2012 • Burlingame Bicycle Transportation Plan — adopted by the City Council on October 8, 2004, by Resolution No. 91-2004 Burlingame Bayfront Specific Plan Chapter IV. Traffic and Circulation — adopted by the City Council on April 5, 2004, by Resolution No. 26-2004. Amendments to the Bayfront Specific Plan were adopted on August 21, 2006, by Resolution No. 58-2006 and on June 18, 2012, by Resolution No. 44-2012. 2 General Plan Circulation Element Update February 2, 2015 • North Burlingame/Rollins Road Specific Plan Chapter 5. Circulation and Infrastructure — adopted by the City Council on September 20, 2004, by Resolution No. 85-2004. The Specific Plan was amended by the Burlingame City Council on February 5, 2007, by Resolution No. 13-2007. • Burlingame Downtown Specific Plan Chapter 7. Circulation and Parking — adopted by the City Council on October 4, 2010, by Resolution No. 73-2010. The purpose of this update is to consolidate all the relevant circulation policies contained in the above documents, to update the data in these documents to reflect current conditions, and to report on what implementation measures have been completed. Data in the original Circulation Element has been updated, obsolete passages removed, and current background information added (a tracked changes version of the document is attached). Furthermore, status updates have been added to the Bayfront and North Burlingame/Rollins Road Specific Plan sections. At this time it is not the intent to change the policies that are now in place. As the community will be embarking on a comprehensive update of the General Plan over the next two years, the expectation is that the Circulation Element will be more fully updated in coordination with the rest of the plan, together with environmental review. However this interim consolidation and update will allow the City to demonstrate that, taken together, its existing policies incorporate the provisions of the California Complete Streets Act (AB 1358) and take into account the multimodal transportation networks within the community and Bay Area. Planning Commission Review and Recommendation: The Planning Commission reviewed the Draft Circulation Element in its November 10`h meeting (meeting minutes attached). Commissioners expressed interest in a range of transportation and circulation issues including: • Quantification of bicycle traffic volumes, both for bicycle commuters and recreational riders; • Completion of unbuilt segments of the Bay Trail; • Coordination between the City and schools on awareness of safe bicycle and pedestrian routes; • Evaluation of existing parking ratios; • Focus on California Drive between Broadway and Burlingame Avenue for Complete Streets improvements; • Street trees on wider roads such as Rollins Road and California Drive; • Circulation improvements in the Bayfront area to support build -out. The upcoming update of the full General Plan will allow these issues to be considered in the context of other planning issues such as land use, open space and economic development. 3 General Plan Circulation Element Update FISCAL IMPACT None.

RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BURLINGAME APPROVING AMENDMENTS TO THE CIRCULATION ELEMENT OF THE BURLINGAME GENERAL PLAN TO COMPLY WITH STATE LAW REQUIRING COMPLIANCE WITH THE CALIFORNIA COMPLETE STREETS ACT OF 2008 THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BURLINGAME hereby finds as follows: Section 1. The term "Complete Streets" describes a comprehensive, integrated transportation network with infrastructure and design that allows safe and convenient travel along and across streets for all users, including pedestrians, bicyclists, persons with disabilities, motorists, movers of commercial goods, users and operators of public transportation, seniors, children, youth, and families. Section 2. The City of Burlingame acknowledges the benefits and value for the public health and welfare of reducing vehicle miles traveled and increasing transportation by walking, bicycling, and public transportation. Section 3. The City of Burlingame recognizes that the planning and coordinated development of Complete Streets infrastructure provides benefits for local governments in the areas of infrastructure cost savings; public health; and environmental sustainability. Section 4. The City of Burlingame has initiated amendments to its General Plan Circulation Element for the purposes of compliance with the California Complete Streets Act of 2008, to maintain eligibility for the next cycle of One Bay Area Grant federal roadway monies administered by the Metropolitan Transportation Commission, and to demonstrate its commitment to form a comprehensive and integrated transportation network promoting safe, equitable, and convenient travel for all users while preserving flexibility, recognizing community context, and using the latest and best design guidelines and standards. Section 5. The Circulation Element (attached) is a compilation of existing goals, policies and programs, each adopted separately as part of previous planning efforts, which taken together represents a program for Complete Streets in compliance with the California Complete Streets Act of 2008, and that the proposed Circulation Element makes no changes to any existing goals, policies or programs. Consequently, this ordinance is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations since it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility the adoption and implementation of this Ordinance may have a significant effect on the environment. Terry Nagel, Mayor RESOLUTION NO. I, Mary Ellen Kearney, City Clerk of the City of Burlingame, do hereby certify that the foregoing resolution was introduced and adopted at a regular meeting of the City Council held on the 2nd day of February, 2015, by the following vote: AYES: COUNCILMEMBERS: NOES: COUNCILMEMBERS: ABSENT: COUNCILMEMBERS: Mary Ellen Kearney, City Clerk Cityof Burlingame g INGAME Y HALL 501 PRIMROSE ROAD 8501 PRIMROSE ROAD BURLINGAME BURLINGAME, CA 94010 Meeting Minutes Planning Commission Monday, November 10, 2014 7:00 PM Council Chambers a. Update to the Circulation Element of the General Plan - Staff Contact: Kevin Gardiner Attachments: Staff Report Draft Circulation Element Circulation Element Attachments Planning Manager made a presentation of the Draft Circulation Element and invited Commission comments. Commission comments and questions: > Bicycle use of commuters (weekday and weekend), recreation, and families > Usage of bike racks > Detection systems at signals - roadbed vs. manual/pushbutton > Does completion of the Bay Trail need to wait for private development or could the City bridge the gaps itself? (Gardiner. Existing policy has been to have the gaps filled in with new development, but going forward a capital program could be considered if there was a desire for the City to take the lead. Developers are advised it is their responsibility to fill the gaps corresponding to their properties.) > Will parking ratios be evaluated in the update? (Gardiner. Yes, in General Plan Update coordination with the Land Use Element) > Is there required regular reporting by city departments on how each category of users are being served? (Gardiner: Could establish an index or indicators to be tracked on a regular basis. Kane: Public Works does this internally - not sure if this is summarized to be presented externally as well.) Wants City to be able to easily report how it is doing on Complete Streets goals, and support future grants and applications. > Should cite more recent update of the Bicycle Transportation Plan. > Coordination between City and school on bike routes, with awareness at the beginning of each school year so that parents can know safe routes are available. > Target a higher bike and walking to work percentage. > Focus on California Drive between Broadway and Burlingame Avenue for road diets, street calming, greater density to make a more pleasant and usable connection. > Street trees for road calming on wide streets such as Rollins Road and California Drive - move street tree wells into parking lane in order to grow larger street canopies and create space for wider sidewalks. > Clarify changes in trends in pedestrianlbike commuting on page 10. > BPAC and TSPC should review this document. > BPAC business plan for a bike fair and family bike ride. > Update Burlingame Avenue status on page 19. > California Drive/Lorton Avenue intersection shows two alternatives (page 48) but if signalized intersection is no longer an option it should be deleted from the document. > Merchants looking to add bike racks, Lunardi's will be proposing bike racks. > Could additional data help influence reopening the Broadway Caltrain station to weekday service? (Gardiner: The issue is the design of the station, not ridership. Should be rectified with the electrification project.) > How did North EI Camino Real frontage road design end up in the plan if it could not be implemented? (Gardiner. May have had conflicting information, or expectation it would be easier to City ofBur ingame Page 1 Printed on 11812015 Planning Commission Meeting Minutes November 10, 2014 vacate frontage roads than what has since been encountered.) > EI Camino Real is a state road under Caltrans jurisdiction. Has there been discussion on taking road back from State and taking on responsibility of maintaining road? (Kane: Has been a subject of discussion for many years.) > Interest in gauging numbers of commuters who walk or bike to transit. > Bayfront does not seem to be built out. Could there be circulation improvements that could support mon: development in this area? (Gardiner: Anticipate this will be a focus in the General Plan Update.) > Should focus on the safety of children across EI Camino Real. Add safe routes to school policy. > Does grade separation at railroad involve road or tracks going under? (Gardiner: Both are being considered as options.) Chair Bandrapalli made a motion, seconded by Commissioner Loftis, to recommend approval to the City Council. The motion carried by the following vote: Aye: 7 - Bandrapalli, DeMartini, Yie, Lol is, Sargent, Terrones, and Gum City of Burlingame Page 2 Printed on 11812015 i it City of Burlingame Draft Circulation Element Update r Ib�Ab:� Amendment to the General Plan February 2, 2015 — — 1 >i Burlingame Draft Circulation Element Update Table of Contents I.

Although the current Circulation Element of the General Plan was adopted by the City Council as a part of the original adoption of the General Plan (October 20, 1969, Resolution No. 87-69) there are several other policy documents related to circulation that have been adopted over the intervening years. These documents consist of: • Complete Streets Policy of the City of Burlingame - adopted by the City Council on November 5, 2012, by Resolution No. 77-2012 • Burlingame Bicycle Transportation Plan - adopted by the City Council on October 8, 2004, by Resolution No. 91-2004 • Burlingame Bayfront Specific Plan Chapter IV. Traffic and Circulation - adopted by the City Council on April 5, 2004, by Resolution No. 26-2004. Amendments to the Bayfront Specific Plan were adopted on August 21, 2006, by Resolution No. 58-2006 and on June 18, 2012, by Resolution No. 44-2012. • North Burlingame/Rollins Road Specific Plan Chapter S. Circulation and Infrastructure - adopted by the City Council on On September 20, 2004, by Resolution No. 85-2004. The Specific Plan was amended by the Burlingame City Council on February 5, 2007, by Resolution No. 13-2007. • Burlingame Downtown Specific Plan Chapter 7. Circulation and Parking - adopted by the City Council on On October 4, 2010, by Resolution No. 73-2010. The purpose of this updtate is to consolidate all the relevant circulation policies into one document, to update the data in these documents to reflect current conditions, and to report on what implementation measures within these documents have been completed. It is not the intent to change the policies that are now in place; the existing policies incorporate the provisions of the California Complete Streets Act (AB 1358) and take into account the multimodal transportation networks within the community and the connections throughout San Mateo County and the Bay Area. Table of Contents Page i I. Current Circulation Element On October 20, 1969, by Resolution No. 87-69, the Burlingame City Council adopted the Burlingame General Plan, which included the following Circulation Element. OVERVIEW An integrated system is proposed including the Southern Pacific Railroad (including both passenger service and through movement of freight), local transit, and four categories of streets and highways. The street and highway system would accommodate private passenger automobiles, trucks and local transit vehicles. The integrated system is proposed to include all modes of travel, including walking, bicycling and transit, allowing users of all ages and abilities to reach destinations in the community and region safely and directly. POPULATION In 2000, 28,128 people lived in the City of Burlingame. About 20.6% of these people were under the age of 20 and 15.2% were over 65. By 2010 the city's Population had increased by 2.4% to 28,806. There was a minor change in the age composition. By 2010 about 23% of the city's residents were under 20 and about 14% were over 65. In 2000 there were 2.22 persons per household on the average. This had increased slightly to 2.29 persons per household in 2010. These minor changes in population and composition reflect the fact that Burlingame is a built out community where there are no large vacant tracts of land suitable for residential development. Any new development is expected to replace existing development, primarily in areas that are near the community's two major transit hubs (Burlingame Caltrain Station and Millbrae Intermodal Station) and along transit corridors such as EI Camino Real and California Drive. Population projections for Burlingame are based on build -out of vacant and underused residential land to the densities given in the General Plan. Projections of household size reflect a continuation of the minor increase of average household size. However, the critical factor in the population range given is the rate of new residential construction. The following projections are derived from Projections 2013, published by the Association of Bay Area Governments: Population 2000-2010, Projected to 2030 2000 28,128 2010 281806 2020 31,700 2030 34,800 Source: ABAG Projections 2013 Household size assumptions for the population projections were: 2010 2.33 2020 2.33 2030 2.34 Source: ABAG Projections 2013. Bicycle Page 1 TRANSIT An integrated system of regional rapid transit and local transit has been developed to serve Burlingame residents and workers and to provide for the high volume through -movement that needs to be accommodated in this corridor. If determined appropriate, grade separations should be considered to accommodate local street crossings. The Caltrain commuter line has been established along the existing Southern Pacific Railway right-of-way along the California Drive/Carolan Avenue corridor. This line also connects to the Millbrae Intermodal Station with connections to the Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) system and SamTrans Bus lines. Opportunities exist for Complete Streets projects along this corridor. A Complete Streets project is proposed for Carolan Avenue between Oak Grove Avenue and Broadway, to accommodate bicycle lanes and pedestrian improvements. This project is now in the design process, and is expected to be under construction in 2015. These projects will enhance the use of the transit facilities and reduce reliance on private automobile travel. There are also opportunities near the transit stations identified in the Downtown Specific Plan and the North Burlingame Rollins Road Specific Plan for higher density development that will benefit from proximity to public transit and to the Complete Streets amenities. STREETS AND HIGHWAYS Bayshore Freeway (Highway 101) and Junipero Freeway (280 Freeway) are recognized in the plan. The main proposals affecting the freeways are additions and improvements to the interchanges at Millbrae Avenue, Broadway, and Peninsula Avenue to provide for full directional movement at each of these interchanges and to accommodate the increasing volumes of traffic that will be generated, particularly from the industrial areas. The Millbrae Avenue and Peninsula Interchange improvements have been completed, and the Broadway interchange project began construction in 2014. These interchange improvements include facilities for bicycles and pedestrians using the overcrossings of US 101. A system of major arterials is proposed to take care of longer distance local trips and to connect Burlingame with adjacent communities. These include EI Camino Real (a State highway), California Drive, and Bayshore Highway and its extension through the Anza Pacific development (Airport Boulevard) for major north -south movements. The latter route would connect with the San Francisco Airport on the north and with the major street system in the City of San Mateo on the south. Airport Boulevard has been completed to provide through traffic in the Bayfront area, and a Bayfront trail system has been developed adjacent to Bayside Park to provide pedestrian and bicycle travel through this area. In addition, bicycle lanes were recently added to Airport Boulevard. Other major arterials include Millbrae Avenue (in the City of Millbrae), Trousdale Drive, Carmelita Avenue from EI Camino Real to California Drive„ and Oak Grove Avenue and Peninsula Avenue. These arterials would carry the major volume of east -west trips and connect with State highways and freeways. The other elements of the street system are secondary arterials connecting collector and local access streets to the major arterials, and collector streets to feed traffic to the arterials and major centers of activity in Burlingame. The systems of streets proposed around the Broadway shopping center and the Burlingame Avenue shopping center are of particular importance. These are intended to provide movement around the centers, connect to parking lots, and permit the central portions of these shopping centers to provide for limited vehicular traffic and turned over primarily to pedestrians. GRADE SEPARATION STRUCTURES Railroad grade separations are recommended at Broadway, Oak Grove, Howard, and Peninsula Avenues. A highway overpass is needed across Bayshore Freeway to connect Millsdale and Bicycle Page 2 East Millsdale Industrial areas. (See also proposals under the heading, Broadway-Bayshore Interchange Area.) A bicycle pedestrian overcrossing of Highway 101 has been constructed adjacent to the Broadway interchange to provide access to Bayside Park from the neighborhoods south of Broadway. PARKWAY In addition to the other elements of the circulation system, it is recommended that a parkway be established along the Bayfront connecting Burlingame's Bayside Park with San Mateo County's Coyote Point Park. Provisions for the Bayfront trail system are included in the Bayfront Specific Plan, using the Bay Conservation and Development Commission Plan as a guide. Portions of the trail have been developed in conjunction with development projects along the Bay shoreline. However, there are gaps in the trail system that will only be completed when the remaining properties with Bay frontage are developed. BROADWAY-BAYSHORE INTERCHANGE AREA Major changes are needed in the circulation system around the Bayshore-Broadway interchange and the proposed grade separation at Broadway and the railroad. The changes should be designed to: 1. Reduce the congestion at the present intersection at Rollins Road and Broadway by providing other means of access to Millsdale and by reducing points of conflict. 2. Provide as much flexibility as possible so that future changes in travel patterns can be accommodated within the system. 3. Provide alternative routes of travel so that individual drivers have some options to permit them to avoid points of congestion. (Traffic flow tends to be somewhat self- adjusting where alternative paths of travel are available.) 4. Increase capacity throughout the Broadway-Bayshore Area by reducing conflicts through traffic control measures, providing added lanes at critical points, and grade separating turning movements wherever feasible. More specific proposals are: 1. Grade separate Broadway and the Southern Pacific Railroad. 2. Provide two completely new links to permit some traffic to avoid the Broadway -Rollins Road intersection. One of these should connect the Millsdale and East Millsdale Industrial areas with an overpass on Bayshore Freeway. The other link proposed is a new street southeast of Cadillac Way extending from Bayshore Boulevard to Carolan Avenue. This new street should be obtained when the presently vacant land is developed. 3. On Bayshore Freeway, move the entrance to the southbound off -ramp as far north as possible and provide connections to Marsten Road, Broadway and Cadillac Way. Many of these issues will be resolved by the construction of the Broadway Interchange. The improvements at the interchange are expected to increase the capacity of the Broadway/Rollins intersection and provide for less delays due to congestion. Any remaining issues can be evaluated as a part of the upcoming General Plan update.

Bicycle Page 4 II. Complete Streets Policy of the City of Burlingame On November 5, 2012, the City Council of Burlingame, by Resolution No. 77-2012, adopted the following Complete Streets Policy. COMPLETE STREETS POLICY OF THE CITY OF BURLINGAME The objective of this policy is to establish guiding principles and practices so transportation improvements are planned, designed, constructed, operated and maintained to encourage walking, bicycling, and transit use while promoting safe operations for all users. A. COMPLETE STREETS PRINCIPLES 1. Complete Streets Serving All Users. The City of Burlingame expresses its commitment to creating and maintaining Complete Streets that provide safe, comfortable, and convenient travel along and across streets (including streets, roads, highways, bridges, and other portions of the transportation system) through a comprehensive, integrated transportation network that serves all categories of users, including pedestrians, bicyclists, persons with disabilities, motorists, movers of commercial goods, users and operators of public transportation, seniors, children, youth, and families. 2. Context Sensitivity. In planning and implementing street projects, departments and agencies of the City of Burlingame shall maintain sensitivity to local conditions in both residential and business districts as well as urban, suburban, and rural areas, and shall work with residents, merchants, and other stakeholders to ensure that a strong sense of place ensues. Improvements that will be considered include sidewalks, shared use paths, bicycle lanes, bicycle routes, paved shoulders, street trees and landscaping, planting strips, accessible curb ramps, crosswalks, refuge islands, pedestrian signals, signs, street furniture, bicycle parking facilities, public transportation stops and facilities, transit priority signalization, and other features assisting in the provision of safe travel for all users, such as traffic calming circles, transit bulb outs, and road diets, as well as those features identified in the City of Burlingame Bicycle Transportation Plan. 3. Complete Streets Routinely Addressed by All Departments. All relevant departments and agencies of the City of Burlingame shall work towards making Complete Streets practices a routine part of everyday operations, approach every relevant project, program, and practice as an opportunity to improve streets and the transportation network for all categories of users, and work in coordination with other departments, agencies, and jurisdictions to maximize opportunities for Complete Streets, connectivity, and cooperation. The following projects provide these opportunities: pavement resurfacing, restriping, accessing above and underground utilities, signalization operations or modifications, and maintenance of landscaping/related features. 4.

Bicycle Transportation Plan On October 8, 2004, the Burlingame City Council, by Resolution No. 91-2004, adopted the Bicycle Transportation Plan, an amendment to the Circulation Element of the General Plan. Updated February 2, 2015: The following text has been updated to reflect current data and trends, and includes a summary and status update of the priority projects listed in the 2004 Bicycle Transportation Plan (refer to Pages 18 — 20 for Priority Project Status Update). 1. OVERVIEW Purpose of the Plan Since Burlingame's inception, the center of community activity has been around its two commercial areas which grew up adjacent to the Burlingame and Broadway train stations with surrounding nearby multiple family residential development fanning out to single family homes. The promotion of bicycling as an alternative transportation source is a natural progression from this transit -oriented community base. Since Burlingame is an older community, many of the streets are narrow and most of its properties are built out. New development generally occurs on sites which have had a previous use. The purpose of this plan is to: ❑ Identify the regional and local bicycle routes through Burlingame for commuters, recreational riders and local shopping trips; ❑ Explore how the bicycle routes can be made more safe and accessible; ❑ Provide a framework for making physical improvements to the bicycle route system. Public Participation In order to take leadership in promoting bicycle safety in the community and participation in the preparation of this plan, the Traffic Safety and Parking Commission (TSP) and the Planning Commission appointed a subcommittee consisting of two TSP members and one Planning Commissioner. This committee has also contacted members of the local bicycle community to ask their advice on the best and safest routes through Burlingame as well as the areas which need improvement. Once the plan was drafted, public hearings before the Traffic, Safety and Parking Commission and the Planning Commission were held to offer an opportunity for the public to review and comment on the plan. Notices of these hearings were published in local newspapers, posted on the City's website, and posted on streets in the Burlingame Avenue and Broadway Commercial Areas, as well as at the train stations and at the local bicycle shop. Following the public hearings, the City Council held a public hearing and adopted the plan by amending it to the City's General Plan. This bicycle plan also builds on the regional routes developed in the San Mateo County Comprehensive Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan, adopted in 2011, which was developed after a series of public workshops held throughout San Mateo County. It is also consistent with the routes shown in the Metropolitan Transportation Commission's adopted 2009 Regional Bicycle Plan Update for the San Francisco Bay Area, which shows the Bay Trail and the California/Carolan north -south route through Burlingame. Bicycle Transportation Plan Page 7 2. BACKGROUND AND SETTING The terrain in Burlingame is similar to other Peninsula communities, with a relatively flat area east of EI Camino Real, and hillier areas to the west of EI Camino Real towards Skyline Boulevard and Highway 280. The north/south bicycle routes are generally flat, with gently rolling hills on the route just west of EI Camino Real. However, the road connections between lower Burlingame through the hillside areas to Skyline Boulevard are fairly steep. There are routes in nearby Hillsborough to reach the west end of Burlingame which are not quite as steep but are more circuitous. Because most of Burlingame was subdivided before 1940 and the city was almost fully developed by the 1970's, with little population growth in the ensuing years, the street pattern is fixed and many of the older residential streets are narrow designed to pre -World War II standards. EI Camino Real as it passes through Burlingame is a substandard four -lane highway lined by a historic grove of Eucalyptus trees. Burlingame has always been a city of trees, and even in the early days, efforts to widen EI Camino were fought by residents wanting to preserve the Eucalyptus and Elm trees which line it. The historic Tree Rows were listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 2012. There are a few local streets through the established residential neighborhoods which were originally designed as "boulevards" and have adequate width to accommodate bicycle travel. These routes are now used informally by bicyclists. The proposed local and regional network of bicycle routes was developed using these streets as a base, to connect to the local routes in San Mateo, Hillsborough and Millbrae. The inter -city routes pass through Burlingame's neighborhoods as close as possible to existing local parks and schools. In addition, Burlingame has about two and one-half linear miles of frontage on San Francisco Bay. The Bayfront land area was primarily created from fill in the 1950's and 1960's. As development occurred after the Bay Conservation and Development Commission (BCDC) was established in 1972, sections of the Bay Trail were built adjacent to the bay's edge. Since there are still a few parcels which have not been developed, or reused since BCDC was established by the State legislature, a few gaps in this trail system on private property remain. In 1999, the City completed construction of the portions of the Bay Trail located on City -owned parcels with frontage on San Francisco Bay. Except for a few vacant parcels on the Bayfront, the Burlingame Community is primarily built out, and the land use patterns are well established. Figure III -1 depicts Burlingame's transportation hubs, schools, parks and shopping districts. Bicycle Transportation Plan Page 8 Bicycle Transportation Plan Page 9 Existing and Expected Bicycle Commuters Based on data collected in the 2010 Census, there are 3453 residents who live and also work in Burlingame. Of those, 66 (1.9%) commute by bicycle and 345 (10.0%) walk to work. Of the 14,570 Burlingame workers 16 years old and older, there are 131 people (0.9%) who commute to work by bicycle and 539 people (3.7%) who walk to work. County -wide, the 2010 Census shows that out of the 358,970 workers, 4,666 (1.3%) bicycle to work, and 9,333 (2.6%) walk to work. In comparison, Burlingame has more people who walk to work and fewer people who bike to work than in the County as a whole. The following tables, based on data from Census 2010, 2000 and 1990 Census, compare Burlingame commuters to commuters in the region and State. Number of Bicycle and Walking Trips, Workers 16 Years Old and Older Comparison 1990, 2000 and 2010 Census The data indicates that Burlingame has shown a slight increase in bicycling commute trips and an increase in walking trips over the past ten years, which is on par with the County, Bay Area and State-wide in the number of commuter trips by bicycle and walking. Over the past ten years, Burlingame, San Mateo County and the Bay Area have seen a significant increase in bicycling and walking trips by commuters, while in California as a whole, bicycle commute trips have increased, and pedestrian commute trips have decreased. The Bay Area has a temperate climate which is conducive to commuting by bicycle or walking. The San Mateo County Comprehensive Bicycle Route Plan indicates that based on a survey conducted county -wide many people who might bicycle to work are concerned with finding safe routes and having bicycle facilities, including bicycle parking and showers, at their place of employment. By making the improvements proposed by this plan, the bike routes through Burlingame will be safer and easier to use. It is expected that the number of commuters using bicycles or walking could be increased to well above the Bay Area average. It is a goal of this plan to increase the number of bicycle and pedestrian commuters in Burlingame to 6.5% of commuters walking or riding their bicycle to work; and to facilitate bicycle access to employment destinations in the City.

Bicycle Transportation Plan Page 10 Existing Bicycle Routes The primary bicycle routes through Burlingame are now marked with signs. In 1972, the Burlingame City Council adopted a system of bicycle routes through Burlingame as shown on Figure III -2, Exhibit A dated May 15, 1972. The routes include Bayshore Highway and Airport Boulevard east of U.S. 101, Skyline Boulevard on the western edge of Burlingame, and two other north/south routes on local residential roads between San Mateo and Millbrae, with local east -west connector routes near the train stations and the commercial core. This route map as adopted in 1972 shows no east/west routes to connect to Skyline Boulevard to the west. In the 1970's, bike lanes were installed on Skyline Boulevard. In addition, bicycle route signs were installed to delineate one of the north -south Class III bike routes through Burlingame. Over the years, most of the signs along this route have been removed and the bike route is no longer clearly marked. There are no signs along the other 1972 identified routes through Burlingame. Since the adoption of the Bicycle Plan in 2004, most of the bicycle routes identified are now marked by signs, bicycle lanes have been added on Howard Avenue, Airport Boulevard and Airport Boulevard, and "sharrow" lane markings have been added to California and Hillside Drives. Bicycle Transportation Plan Page 11 Bicycle Transportation Plan Page 12 3. GOALS AND POLICIES GOAL A: Provide a framework for improving the existing bicycle route system in Burlingame. Policies: A-1. Designate routes for both local and regional bicycle trips for the benefit of commuters and recreational cyclists. A-2. Establish a list of priority projects for improvement of the community's bicycle route system. A-3. Provide a system of signs to direct bicyclists to the best routes within and through Burlingame and guide them in their use. A-4. On the portions of Howard Avenue, California Drive and Carolan Avenue where there is adequate right-of-way, create Class I Bike Lanes to provide both a north/south and east/west connection through Burlingame. GOAL B: Promote bicycle travel as a safe and viable transportation mode and provide a system which connects work, shopping, schools, residential and recreation areas. Policies: B-1. Maintain Bicycle routes in a safe and rideable condition. B-2. Local bicycle routes should be signed, and should connect local schools, parks and shopping areas. B-3. Local bicycle routes should provide access to the Burlingame and Broadway Caltrain stations, and to the Millbrae Intermodal Transit Station immediately north of the Burlingame boundary. B-4. Promote the use of Bicycle Detection Systems to allow bicycles to trigger signals at the intersections between bike routes and arterials such as EI Camino Real and California Drive. B-5. Identify and promote safe bicycle parking facilities near shopping areas, schools, recreation areas and transit stations. B-6. Encourage bicycle safety programs to educate students at the local schools about safe riding habits. GOAL C: Establish new connections across U.S. 101 to provide access from Burlingame's residential areas to the recreational opportunities along the Burlingame Bayfront and to provide regional connections to the Bay Trail. Policies: C-1. Work with Caltrans on the design of the Broadway Bicycle and Pedestrian overcrossing proposed as a part of the U.S. 101 Auxiliary Lane project. C-2. Develop safe connections to the Broadway bicycle and pedestrian overcrossing from Cadillac Way on the west side, and onto Broadway/Airport Boulevard on the east side of the overcrossing. C-3. Promote a second bicycle/pedestrian connection across U.S. 101 in the vicinity of the Anza Boulevard off -ramp to connect to Rollins Road near Morrell Avenue and Winchester Drive. Bicycle Transportation Plan Page 13 4. BICYCLE NETWORK, FACILITIES AND PROGRAMS Local and Regional Routes Figure III -3 shows the local and regional bicycle routes through Burlingame. The primary regional routes are: North/South Routes • Bay Trail • Airport Boulevard/Bayshore Highway • Howard/Carolan/California Drive East/West Routes • Howard Avenue from Humboldt in San Mateo to Ralston Avenue in Hillsborough • Adeline Drive from Central Burlingame through unincorporated Burlingame Hills to Skyline Boulevard The local routes through the residential neighborhoods also provide regional access, but by roads with less traffic and are more scenic. The route west of EI Camino Real which follows Cabrillo Avenue and jogs up to Quesada Way passes several schools and parks and offers a fairly flat alternative to EI Camino Real, which is much too busy and narrow through Burlingame to accommodate bicycle traffic. Bicycle Storage and Shower Facilities Bicycle racks are available at the Burlingame Public Library, the Recreation Center at Washington Park and at the schools and parks shown on Figure III -3. Based on the San Mateo County Congestion Management Plan, bicycle facilities are required as traffic mitigation for all new development in Burlingame. These facilities could include bicycle lockers, racks and shower facilities provided for employees working in a new office or commercial building. It is recommended that additional bicycle racks of a type selected by the City be placed at strategic locations, such as public parking lots as a part of streetscape improvements, within the Broadway and Burlingame Avenue Commercial Areas as uses change, buildings are replaced, and sidewalks are redone. Bicycle lockers and racks are available at both the Burlingame and Broadway Caltrain Stations. The Burlingame train station has 18 bicycle lockers available for rent on a monthly basis and a bicyle rack which will hold 8 bicycles. The Broadway train station has 12 bicycle lockers for rent and two bicycle racks which will hold a total of 16 bicycles. Coordination and Consistency with other Plans This plan is an amendment to the Circulation Element of the Burlingame General Plan, and is consistent with the transportation policies contained in that plan, including the Bayfront Specific Plan, the North Burlingame/Rollins Road Specific Plan and the Downtown Specific Plan. The regional bicycle routes shown in the plan are consistent with the routes shown in the San Mateo County Comprehensive Bicycle Plan adopted by the City/County Association of Governments in 2011. In addition, the priority projects identified in the County's plan have been incorporated into the list of projects identified in the implementation chapter of this plan. In addition, the routes in this plan are consistent with the routes shown in the Metropolitan Transportation Commission's adopted 2009 Regional Bicycle Plan for the San Bicycle Transportation Plan Page 14 Francisco Bay Area. The MTC regional plan shows the Bay Trail and the California/Carolan north -south route as regional routes through Burlingame. The regional routes shown also connect with regional routes to the south which are shown in the City of San Mateo Bicycle and Pedestrian Chapter of the Circulation Element. To the north, the regional routes connect with those identified in Millbrae's General Plan. Although the Town of Hillsborough does not have a formal bicycle plan, the routes shown through Hillsborough are the routes which are commonly used by cyclists and connect to the planned route on Skyline Drive in Burlingame as well as to regional routes along the San Andreas reservoir. Bicycle Transportation Plan Page 15 Bicycle Transport on Transit There are two Caltrain stations in Burlingame, at Burlingame Avenue and Broadway at California Drive. Each local train is equipped with two cars which allow up to 40 bicycles on board (gallery car) or 24 bicycles on board (Bombadier cars). These bicycle cars are heavily used during commute hours. Caltrain also offers limited stop and "Baby Bullet" express trains that do not stop at all local stops. The bullet train service does not stop in Burlingame; the nearest stop is at the Millbrae Intermodal Transit Station just north of the Burlingame border. Some of the limited -stop trains stop at the Burlingame train station. Caltrain offers 18 bicycle lockers and 13 rack spaces at the Burlingame station. SamTrans operates a bus system throughout San Mateo County, with three local routes and five regional routes which provide service in Burlingame. All SamTrans buses are equipped with bicycle racks, which hold a maximum of two bikes, and two additional bikes are allowed inside the bus. Following are the bus routes which serve Burlingame: ❑ Route 43 travels from Burlingame Plaza Shopping Center at EI Camino Real and Murchison and connects with the Tanforan Shopping Center in San Bruno, traversing local streets through Millbrae and EI Camino Real. ❑ Route 46 operates entirely within Burlingame starting at Trousdale and Quesada on the north and traveling south along California Drive to Burlingame Avenue, and east to Washington Park and the Recreation Center. ❑ Route 292 runs from the Hillsdale Shopping Center in San Mateo to the Transbay Terminal in downtown San Francisco, and travels through Burlingame along Peninsula Avenue, California Drive, Broadway and Bayshore Highway. ❑ Route 397 Connects downtown Palo Alto with downtown San Francisco, and travels through Burlingame on EI Camino Real. Bicycle Safety and Education ❑ Currently, there is no avenue for bicycle education and safety. It is proposed that brochures be developed which inform people of the location of the bicycle routes through Burlingame, as well as to offer safety tips for riding, such as the rules of the road, how to negotiate intersections, riding defensively, and how to use hand signals. These brochures would be made available at the City's recreation center and library, as well as distributed to schools. In addition, the posting of signs along the bicycle routes will educate motorists to expect bicycle traffic on these streets. The Burlingame Police Department has a School Liaison Officer, and the brochures can be distributed through this officer as a part of a bicycle safety education program. The Peninsula Traffic Congestion Relief Alliance also has a program that provides Bike and Pedestrian Safety workshops at an employer's work site. ❑ In addition, the League of American Bicyclists conducts an education program for bicyclists to learn how to ride safely. Classes are taught through local community centers and provide education to both children and adults. The community can take advantage of this resource to provide education to all cyclists. ❑ Once some of the designated routes have been established, the community should hold a "Bicycle Day" to promote the use of the bicycle routes and to distribute information on bicycle safety. Bicycle Transportation Plan Page 17 S. IMPLEMENTATION Priority Projects In an effort to improve bicycle transportation in and through Burlingame, the following have been identified as having the highest priority and giving the most benefit to bicycle commuters and recreational riders in the community. 1. Bicycle Detectors/Crosswalks and marked bike lane at the Cadillac Way/Rollins Road intersection to access the new Broadway bicycle/ pedestrian bridge. As a part of the Caltrans Auxiliary Lane project between Third Avenue in San Mateo and Millbrae Avenue, Caltrans will be constructing a bicycle pedestrian bridge adjacent to the existing narrow Broadway interchange overpass. The bridge will land in the island across from the Cadillac Way/Rollins Road intersection, where it is difficult for pedestrians and bicyclists to cross Rollins Road to access the bridge. This crossing could be made safer by: a. providing a crosswalk across Rollins Road from the north side of Cadillac Way to the bridge landing; b. providing street markings and bicycle detectors on Cadillac Way so that cyclists can make a left turn towards the bridge landing; and c. adding a designated bicycle lane along Rollins Road approaching the bridge to separate bicyclists from the nearest automobile travel lane. ✓ STATUS UPDATE. While these improvements have not been completed, the Broadway interchange project, which started construction in 2014, will result in a reconfiguration of this intersection. Bicycle and pedestrian access to the existing bridge will be included as part of the interchange project. 2. Bike Lanes on Carolan, California and Howard Avenue — The San Mateo County Comprehensive Bicycle Route Plan contains a list of 15 priority projects to enhance the regional bicycle route system. One of the projects on this list is the completion of a North-South Bikeway as it runs through San Mateo, Burlingame and Millbrae. The portion through Burlingame would connect with Delaware Avenue in San Mateo to the South, and would connect to the Millbrae Intermodal Transit Station to the North. Most of this regional route is on streets (California, Carolan, Howard) which have adequate width to provide Class I bike lanes, or to provide adequate shoulder for cyclists to safely ride next to automobile traffic. It is recommended that improvements to these roadways be made to add Class II bike lanes to the extent feasible, and to provide adequate signage to direct riders to use this route (see diagram on Page CI -15 for an explanation of Class I, II and II bicycle routes). ✓ STATUS UPDATE. Within the last few years, bicycle signage and "Sharrow" lane markings have been added on California Drive, and bicycle lanes have been added on Howard Avenue between California Drive and Humboldt Avenue. A Complete Streets project is being designed for Carolan Avenue between Oak Grove Avenue and Broadway. Design for this project is now underway, and it is expected to begin construction by Fall of 2015. Bicycle Transportation Plan Page 18 3. Explore the possibility of a local bicycle path between the Broadway and Burlingame Commercial Areas and train stations using existing right-of-way along the Caltrain tracks. Along the Caltrain tracks between Burlingame Avenue and Broadway, there may be excess right-of-way on either side of the tracks sufficient to install a Class I bicycle path. This right-of-way is not owned or controlled by the City of Burlingame, but belongs to either the Joint Powers Board which operates Caltrain, or the City and County of San Francisco (adjacent to California Drive). This project would have to be a joint effort in cooperation with these agencies and is a long range project. If the project is determined to be feasible, the path should be a joint use trail, with separate clearly designated areas for bicycles and for pedestrians. It is allso recommended that a landscaped buffe be included between the railroad tracks and the pathway. 4. Place Bicycle Racks in the Burlingame Avenue and Broadway Commercial Districts. These two busy commercial districts can be easily accessed by bicycle from the surrounding residential areas. Bicycle racks of a design to match the existing street furniture could be placed either along the sidewalks or in the many public parking lots which serve these areas. These should be designed into any future streetscape improvements in the public right-of-way. ✓ STATUS UPDATE. Bicycle racks have been added on both Burlingame Avenue and Broadway as part of the streetscape projects for these streets. The Burlingame Avenue streetscape project was completed in November, 2014, and includes wider sidewalks along Burlingame Avenue between California Drive and El Camino Real to allow more room for dining al fresco, parallel parking, improved intersections with corner bulb -outs, classic street lights and furniture, beautiful landscaping. S. Explore the possibility of creating a loop path connecting to the proposed creekside paths in the Rollins Road area. As a part of the North Burlingame/Rollins Road Specific Plan, a series of multi -use (pedestrian/bicycle, etc.) creek trails is proposed which would be developed as new development occurs in that area. In order to connect these trails within the Rollins Road area and provide a full connection through the Rollins Road area, it is proposed that bicycle connections to these creek trails be created. The exact locations of the connections and whether they would be on public or private property would need to be explored. 6. Provide a second bridge crossing of U.S. 101 in the vicinity of Winchester Drive to connect to the existing bike and pedestrian path on the east side near Anza Boulevard and Bayside Park. The Bayfront Specific Plan identifies this location for a pedestrian/bicycle crossing of 101 which provides direct access from the residential neighborhoods west of U.S. 101 to the recreational amenities at Bayside Park and along the Bay Trail. 7. Bicycle Route Signs along Local and Regional Routes. Another project on the priority list in the San Mateo County Comprehensive Bicycle Route Plan is to provide directional signage and signal detectors along the regional north south route. In addition, some of Burlingame's local bicycle routes have signs which were installed in the early 1970's, but many are missing and the route is not always apparent. A comprehensive program for signing all the bicycle routes through Burlingame would go a long way toward making the City's system more user-friendly and safer. Also, the signage would raise awareness of automobile drivers to look for bicyclists along these routes. Since many of these local bicycle routes are through residential Bicycle Transportation Plan Page 19 neighborhoods, the option to mark some of the routes with street markings rather than signs, where the situation warrants, should be considered. ✓ STATUS UPDATE., Comprehensive Bicycle Route signage has been implemented for most of the bicycle routes throughout the Community. As a part of this sign program, it is also recommended that signs be placed at the prominent gateway entrances to Burlingame which include a statement which identifies Burlingame as a bicycle friendly community. Possible locations for these signs would be at the City limits on EI Camino, California Drive, Rollins Road, Airport Boulevard and Bayshore Highway. 8. Explore the possibility of adding "zebra crossings" (clearly marked pedestrian crossings) across EI Camino Real and California Drive at intersections with bicycle routes. One of the impediments to bicycling to and from parks, playgrounds and shopping areas in Burlingame is the ability to safely cross these two busy arterial streets. Caltrans has recently completed the installation of video bicycle detectors on signals at critical intersections along EI Camino Real. Where the video detectors work with the signals, the striped crossing would reinforce and make the motorist aware to watch for pedestrians and bicyclists crossing at the bicycle route intersections. 9. Create handouts and an outreach program to make people aware of the bicycle routes and provide guidance regarding bicycle safety. An important element of creating a safe environment for bicycle riding is education. The public needs to be aware of the routes which can be used to access our local facilities, and both motorists and bicyclists can benefit from learning the rules of safe bicycle riding. The handouts would be made available to schools through the Police Department's School Liaison Officer and distributed at parks and libraries. 6. DESIGN STANDARDS The proposed projects will be designed in accordance with the Design and Maintenance Standards as outlined in Chapter 5.0 of the San Mateo County Comprehensive Bicycle Route Plan. The general criteria outlined in the County Plan is that projects are to Conform to Caltrans standards for bikeways. The following chart delineates the three types of bicycle facilities, Class I, Class II and Class III.

Bicycle Transportation Plan Page 22 FUNDING SOURCES There are several Federal, State and local Programs which provide funding for bicycle and pedestrian projects. These projects are rated based on such criteria as the need of the project to complete a regional bicycle route system, the increased safety that the project will provide and the amount of the local match for the outside funding. Following are a list of the primary funding sources available in 2004. ❑ TEA -21 (Transportation Enhancement Activities): This is a federal funding source which offers funding for projects which enhance alternative transportation opportunities. ❑ State Bicycle Transportation Account: An annual program through the State which provides grants to local jurisdictions with an emphasis on projects which benefit bicycling for commuting purposes. ❑ Transportation Development Act (TDA) Article 3 (SB 821): These funds originate from the state gasoline tax and are distributed to local jurisdictions based on population. In San Mateo County, the distribution of these funds is administered by the San Mateo City/County Association of Governments (C/CAG). ❑ New Construction/Impact Fee: Any new development in Burlingame's Bayfront and North Burlingame/Rollins Road areas will be required either to install the planned bicycle improvements on their property and for area -wide improvements to pay a Development Impact Fee which will fund the future installation of bicycle lanes on a comprehensive basis. ❑ Peninsula Congestion Relief Alliance — This agency has a program which provides funds to employers to place bike racks and lockers at their place of business. The Alliance pays one-half the cost for purchasing and installing any bike parking for up to a maximum of $500.00 per unit. The Alliance also has a program that provides Bike and Pedestrian Safety workshops at an employers work site. Bicycle Transportation Plan Page 23 IV. Burlingame Bayfront Specific Plan - Traffic and Circulation On April 5, 2004, the Burlingame City Council, by Resolution No. 26-2004, adopted the Burlingame Bayfront Specific Plan. Amendments to the Bayfront Specific Plan were adopted on August 21, 2006, by Resolution No. 58-2006 and on June 18, 2012, by Resolution No. 44-2012. Following is the Traffic and Circulation Chapter of the adopted Burlingame Bayfront Specific Plan. 1. EXISTING ROADWAY CONFIGURATION AND CLASSIFICATION Roadway Access: The following roadways provide access to and within the Bayfront Planning Area. Table IV -1 provides an explanation of the roadway classifications, and Figure IV -1 shows the circulation plan, including bicycle routes. • US 101 is a State Highway which provides regional access to this section of Burlingame. This freeway travels in a north -south direction through the State of California. In the planning area, four travel lanes are provided in each direction with auxiliary lanes on some segments within Burlingame. The interchanges that provide access to the Shoreline, Inner Bayshore, and Anza, Anza Extension and Anza Point Areas are: Millbrae Avenue, Broadway, Anza Boulevard (northbound only), Peninsula Avenue (northbound only) and Poplar Avenue (southbound only). • Airport Boulevard is an arterial roadway which runs parallel to US 101, from Bayshore Highway at Bayside Park to the City boundary and through unincorporated San Mateo County to Coyote Point Drive. The width of this roadway varies from two to four lanes. It provides access to office buildings, hotels, restaurants, recreation facilities and a long-term airport parking lot. It has direct access to US 101 at the Broadway interchange. • Bayshore Highway is a four -lane arterial roadway that parallels US 101 north of Airport Boulevard at the Broadway interchange and extends to the Millbrae interchange. It provides access to hotel, office, restaurant, light industrial, and warehouse uses. • Anza Boulevard is a two- to four -lane collector roadway that connects Airport Boulevard to northbound US 101. At its northern end, it provides access to office and hotel uses. • Coyote Point Drive is a four -lane roadway that intersects Airport Boulevard near the US 101/Peninsula Avenue interchange. It provides access to the Coyote Point County Recreation Area and the City of San Mateo Poplar Creek Golf Course. Burlingame Bayfront Specific Plan - Traffic & Circulation Page 24 Roadwav Claccifirafinn Classification Description Local Street Provides for local traffic circulation with direct access to adjoining properties. Through traffic is deliberately discouraged. Collector Provides for traffic movement between arterials and local streets. Provides both access to adjoining properties and through routes within commercial and industrial neighborhoods. Arterial Provides service to trips of moderate length. Distributes travel to smaller geographic areas than major arterials. May carry local bus routes and provide intra -community continuity. Major Arterial Carries the major portion of traffic entering and leaving the City, as well as the majority of movements desiring to bypass localized areas and travel through the community Burlingame Bayfront Specific Plan - Traffic & Circulation Page 25 Figure IV -1 - Bayfront Circulation Plan Source: Burlingame Community Development Department, June, 2012 Burlingame Bayfront Specific Plan - Traffic & Circulation Page 26 Federal Highway Administration Aid Roadways In addition to the above classifications, roadways which are considered to be regionally important have designations assigned by the Federal Highway Administration and the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC). The Federal Highway Administration designates certain roadways as Federal Aid Routes. These routes can be eligible for federal funding for improvements. Both Bayshore Highway and Airport Boulevard, including the portion in San Mateo County between Lang Road and the Peninsula Interchange, are designated as part of Federal Urban Aid Route No. FAU D466 and are eligible for some federal funding. MTC is a regional transportation agency which oversees transportation projects in the nine -county San Francisco Bay region. The MTC Metropolitan Roadway System classifications are used to determining funding priorities for regional transportation projects. The MTC's Metropolitan Roadway System (MTS) map designates US 101 as an MTS Freeway, and Bayshore Highway and Airport Boulevard, including the section between Lang Road and the Peninsula interchange, as MTS Local Roads. Bicycle Access: Bicycle facilities in the planning area include bike paths, bike lanes, and bike routes. Bike paths are paved and are separated from roadways by spaces or by physical barriers. Bike lanes are lanes on roadways designated with special pavement markings and signs for use exclusively by bicycles. Bike routes are roadways that are designated for use by bicycles with signs and/or paint. Bicycle facilities within the planning area include portions of the Bay Trail, a multi -use recreational paved pathway along San Francisco Bay, Sanchez Channel and Burlingame Lagoon; and bike lanes on Airport Boulevard (see Figure IV -2, Bicycle and Pedestrian Circulation Map for existing and proposed bicycle routes). There are two bike routes in Burlingame which access this area across US 101. Millbrae Avenue in Millbrae also provides a bicycle route which crosses US 101 to serve this area. There is a bicycle over crossing of US 101 south of the Broadway interchange, which was installed as a part of the auxiliary lane project on US 101 which provided auxiliary lanes between the Millbrae interchange and the 3rd Avenue on and off ramps in San Mateo. The auxiliary lane project also included widening of the Peninsula Avenue overpass, to include bicycle lanes. Future bicycle and pedestrian access to the Anza Extension recreation facilities should include a second bridge over U.S. 101 in the vicinity of Morrell Avenue and Rollins Road. Bus Service: The Burlingame Bayside Area Shuttle carries commuters between the Millbrae Intermodal Station and Burlingame businesses along Bayshore Highway and Airport Boulevard during morning and evening commute periods. The Burlingame Trolley operates between Airport hotels and office areas and the Burlingame and Broadway shopping areas. The shuttles are funded by the City of Burlingame, Peninsula Joint Powers Board, San Mateo Transit District, Bay Area Air Quality Management District, City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County, the Downtown Burlingame Business Association, and the Broadway Improvement District. The services are free to passengers. The San Mateo County Transit District (SamTrans) operates fixed -route bus service to San Mateo County. There is one bus route in the Bayfront Planning Area - Route 292. This route operates between Hillsdale Shopping Center in San Mateo and the Transbay Terminal in downtown San Francisco. It operates within the planning area from the Broadway interchange north on Bayshore Highway.

The BART station and 3000 -space parking garage are accessed from the Millbrae interchange at the north end of the planning area. The station is about a mile from Cowan Road and Bayshore Highway. Pedestrian Facilities: The completed portions of the Bay Trail provide pedestrian access along a major portion of the bay frontage throughout the planning area. There are only a few gaps in the trail which are on private property. When these remaining parcels are developed or redeveloped, the developer will be required to complete and maintain these sections of the Bay Trail. Both Bayshore Highway and Airport Boulevard have sidewalks along their entire length. Most large properties with trail improvements also have vertical access from the Bay Trail to the public sidewalk, so users today can travel continually on most of Burlingame's water frontages. 2. TRAFFIC PATTERNS - TRIP GENERATION AND INTERSECTION CAPACITY There are limited access points to the Bayfront Planning Area. Therefore, it is important that the main access intersections are operating at an acceptable level of service. Intersection operations are described by standards known as "level of service" (LOS), which is a qualitative description of traffic flow based on such factors as speed, travel time, delay, and freedom to maneuver. Six levels of service are defined, ranging from LOS A, the best operating conditions, to LOS F, where demand exceeds capacity and there is excessive delay. LOS E normally corresponds to operation "at capacity". The following table shows the existing intersection levels of service in the Bayfront Planning Area, plus development approved and under construction. This establishes the baseline conditions for the Specific Plan.

Analyzer Update, April 2003 Burlingame Bayfront Specific Plan - Traffic & Circulation Page 29 The Traffic Analyzer The 1981 Burlingame Bayfront Specific Area Plan based the mix of land use designations and densities on the traffic producing characteristics of each of the land uses. The impact of each use on the key intersections which provide access to the area was critical. The traffic analyzer model was first developed in 1979 and has been updated twice, most recently in 2002-2003. The distribution and intensity of development was determined for the Specific Plan based on the assumption that all of the critical intersections, except Broadway on - ramps, which are already operating at an "F" level of service in the PM peak hours, would continue to operate at acceptable levels of service. Different types of development generate traffic at different rates and at different times of day. Trip generation rates for different types of land uses have been developed to look at traffic during the evening commute period (PM peak hours), when traffic volumes are generally highest. These trip generation rates are used to determine the worst case traffic impacts of a proposed development, particularly on the critical intersections. Using the Traffic Analyzer model, a new development proposal can be analyzed to determine its incremental impact on the critical intersections. The analyzer looks at the capacity of these intersections, consisting of existing traffic volumes plus approved projects, to establish baseline conditions. The baseline conditions show how much capacity is still available at each critical intersection (refer to Table IV -1). Using the analyzer tables, the amount of capacity consumed by a new development project can be determined at each of the nine key intersections. This provides a .way to monitor the amount of intersection capacity left for future development in the area, allowing for balanced growth and continued maintenance of acceptable levels of service within the planning area. Many jurisdictions consider LOS D to be the minimum acceptable level of service. However, LOS C is considered the target level of service rating for planning purposes. Therefore, since the traffic analyzer is a planning tool, the LOS C is used to evaluate Planning Area intersections in the analyzer. The original analyzer looked at six key intersections in the area, later expanded to nine intersections: • Bayshore Highway/Millbrae Avenue • Broadway/Rollins Road • Broadway/Bayshore Highway • Bayshore Highway/Airport Boulevard • Airport Boulevard/Anza Boulevard • Airport Boulevard/Coyote Point Drive • Peninsula Avenue/North Humboldt Street • Airport Boulevard/Future 101 Ramps • Coyote Point Drive/North Bayshore Boulevard 3. NECESSARY IMPROVEMENTS In order to ensure that the capacity of both the critical intersections and the connecting roadways is maintained at an acceptable level of service, there are several roadway improvement projects which should occur. Based on each project's impact on the critical intersections in the Bayfront Area, they will be charged a Bayfront Development Fee to be matched with City funds to make improvements to the roadway system. Some of these projects were identified in the 1981 Bayfront Specific Area Plan. The improvements identified at the time the Bayfront Development Fee was established in 1979 and which were used as a basis for the original traffic analyzer are as follows: Burlingame Bayfront Specific Plan — Traffic & Circulation Page 30 Status of Bavfrnnt Dpvpinnmont Poo Drninrta As noted above, three of the six projects have been completed. Engineering and environmental studies have been completed for the proposal to widen Airport Boulevard to four lanes and it is still a valid project for improving traffic flow in the Bayfront Planning Area. This project should be included in the list of projects to be funded by the update of the Bayfront Development Fee. Preliminary studies were also done on the proposal to build new freeway on and off -ramps at Humboldt/Howard and Rollins Road and this project was determined to be infeasible. It should not be included in future improvement plans to be funded by the Bayfront Development Fee. In addition, the addition of a second left turn lane to the northbound freeway on-ramp from Broadway was studied. The proposal was to move the on-ramp to the north with the idea that it would provide for more storage capacity. In fact, after study it was determined that this project would result in less storage capacity than is available in the current configuration. The Traffic Analyzer Update identifies the following additional roadway improvements required to maintain an acceptable level of service within the planning area. It is proposed that these roadway improvements would be funded in part by private development through implementation of an updated Bayfront Development Fee as discussed in Chapter VII. - Plan Implementation of the Bayfront Specific Plan, Airport Boulevard Curve Realignment - Airport Boulevard has sharp curves (900) at two locations along its southern portion in the Anza Point Area. As traffic volumes increase, these sharp curves will prove to be both capacity constraints and safety hazards. Therefore, it is recommended that these curves be smoothed out to comfortably handle traffic along Airport Boulevard at the roadway's design speed. A curve on this type of roadway with a 30 miles per hour (mph) design speed should have a radius of 300 feet. Airport Boulevard Median Reconstruction/ Site Access Plan - Currently, along Airport Boulevard between Lang Road and Anza Boulevard, the median is intermittent with frequent breaks. This median area will likely need to be reconstructed to allow for specific project access to Airport Boulevard. Therefore, it is recommended that a comprehensive plan be developed to strategically position the median breaks at appropriate locations along Airport Boulevard to accommodate future projects. It is recommended that this median access be planned, rather than designed and constructed on a project -by -project basis, to ensure that Burlingame Bayfront Specific Plan - Traffic & Circulation Page 31 Project Status A Install Signals at Bayshore Highway and Mitten Road Completed B Install Signals at Bayshore Highway and Stanton Completed Road C a.

Preliminary studies were also done on the proposal to build new freeway on and off -ramps at Humboldt/Howard and Rollins Road and this project was determined to be infeasible. It should not be included in future improvement plans to be funded by the Bayfront Development Fee. In addition, the addition of a second left turn lane to the northbound freeway on-ramp from Broadway was studied. The proposal was to move the on-ramp to the north with the idea that it would provide for more storage capacity. In fact, after study it was determined that this project would result in less storage capacity than is available in the current configuration. The Traffic Analyzer Update identifies the following additional roadway improvements required to maintain an acceptable level of service within the planning area. It is proposed that these roadway improvements would be funded in part by private development through implementation of an updated Bayfront Development Fee as discussed in Chapter VII. - Plan Implementation of the Bayfront Specific Plan, Airport Boulevard Curve Realignment - Airport Boulevard has sharp curves (900) at two locations along its southern portion in the Anza Point Area. As traffic volumes increase, these sharp curves will prove to be both capacity constraints and safety hazards. Therefore, it is recommended that these curves be smoothed out to comfortably handle traffic along Airport Boulevard at the roadway's design speed. A curve on this type of roadway with a 30 miles per hour (mph) design speed should have a radius of 300 feet. Airport Boulevard Median Reconstruction/ Site Access Plan - Currently, along Airport Boulevard between Lang Road and Anza Boulevard, the median is intermittent with frequent breaks. This median area will likely need to be reconstructed to allow for specific project access to Airport Boulevard. Therefore, it is recommended that a comprehensive plan be developed to strategically position the median breaks at appropriate locations along Airport Boulevard to accommodate future projects. It is recommended that this median access be planned, rather than designed and constructed on a project -by -project basis, to ensure that Burlingame Bayfront Specific Plan - Traffic & Circulation Page 31 project access locations are efficiently located with respect to each other and to Airport Boulevard. Airport Boulevard Bridge Widening (Sanchez Channel) - Airport Boulevard transitions from four lanes to three lanes (one southbound lane and two northbound lanes) just north of the Burlingame Lagoon bridge crossing, and continues with this configuration south of the lagoon. Although the capacity of the roadway is expected to be adequate, providing a second lane in each direction allows traffic to turn into and out of developed sites without impeding through traffic and providing safe pedestrian separation. Therefore, it is recommended that this roadway and bridge be widened to accommodate a four -lane cross section, with full pedestrian access to the adjacent Bay trail. Transition between New Broadway Interchange and Airport Boulevard - Airport Boulevard, between its current intersections with the Bayshore Highway and Anza Boulevard, is a two-lane facility. In the future, the Broadway interchange with US 101 will be reconfigured and straightened to align directly with Airport Boulevard at Bayshore Highway. Broadway is a four -lane facility. Therefore, in order to connect with the straightened Broadway, it is recommended that Airport Boulevard be widened to four lanes between the Bayshore Highway and Anza Boulevard. This widening, in conjunction with the bridge widening described above, will create a continuous, four -lane Airport Boulevard from its beginning at the Bayshore Highway to Beach Road, where Airport Boulevard transitions to a two-lane facility in San Mateo County. ✓ STATUS UPDATE: This transition will be completed as a part of the Broadway Interchange Construction Project. Airport Boulevard Bicycle Lanes - It is recommended that continuous bicycle lanes be installed along Airport Boulevard to provide continuous bicycle access through the Anza Area. ✓ STATUS UPDATE: Bicycle lanes have been installed along Airport Boulevard between Broadway and the Sanchez Channel bridge. Bayshore Highway Median Reconstruction - Bayshore Highway is now a four -lane roadway with median areas in some locations and continuous shared two-way left -turn lanes in other areas. Similar to the recommended access plan for Airport Boulevard, an improvement plan is recommended for Bayshore Highway, to determine the appropriate locations of median breaks to serve existing and future development. As part of that plan, the existing signals will need to be upgraded to provide for signal interconnect and coordination. Where possible, the plan should provide opportunities for landscaping and lighting within the median. Local Roadway Signalization required with the Realignment of Broadway Interchange - The reconstruction of the Broadway interchange will change the alignment of the connecting roadways to "T" or full intersections where they connect with the Broadway overpass. New signals will be required at these intersections. ✓ STATUS UPDATE: These local roadway signals will be completed as a part of the Broadway Interchange Construction Project. Broadway Interchange: It should be noted that the Rollins Road/Broadway/US 101 southbound off -ramp is now operating at a Level of Service "P' and will continue to do so with plan implementation. The levels of service for the intersections at or near the Burlingame Bayfront Specific Plan - Traffic & Circulation Page 32 Broadway interchange will continue to function at this level until the Broadway intersection is reconstructed. There are long range plans to improve the Broadway interchange, but that project has not yet been funded. It will be a priority project when funding for regional projects becomes available. The project would also include changes to the surrounding intersections, which should ease the congestion on the on-ramps. ✓ STATUS UPDATE: Broadway Interchange Construction Project is funded and construction is underway. There are also proposals to change the operation of Caltrain at the Broadway station (such as relocation of the station platforms; fewer trains stopping at the station) which will lessen the down-time for the Caltrain gates on Broadway. When the Broadway interchange project is implemented, and when the proposed changes to the Broadway Caltrain station and/or the changes in operation of Caltrain occur, the traffic circulation in this area will improve. However, because of the short distance between intersections and the location of the Caltrain tracks, it may not be possible to bring these intersections at either side of the interchange to a level of Service C. 4. LAND USE DENSITIES AND TRAFFIC CONTROL The updated traffic analyzer also looked at the proposed land uses and densities as outlined in Chapter III. - Land Use of the Bayfront Specific Plan. The land use densities for each subarea were selected based on the traffic generating characteristics of those uses. With the land use densities identified in Chapter III, and the improvements outlined above, it is expected that all intersections, except the Rollins Road/Broadway/US 101 southbound off- ramp will continue to operate at acceptable levels of service after build-out of the plan. The analyzer also looks at the way traffic trips are distributed as they come and go from the area. These directions of approach and departure are determined using the traffic surveys done in this area over the years. For instance, the hotel traffic comes predominately from the north, to and from the airport. Office traffic, on the other hand, tends to come from both the north and south, indicating more regional trips on U.S. 101 rather than local trips from residential areas to the west. About 15 per cent of the restaurant trips were internal to the Bayfront Area indicating that the restaurants serve the adjacent hotels and businesses. Using all if this collected data, each land use and each subarea have been assigned a specific "Capacity Consumption Rate" which assigns the new trips to the area's critical intersections. Therefore, as each development proposal comes in, its traffic impacts attributed to each intersection can be identified. In addition, this information will be used to update the Bayfront Development Fee and to develop with the City a fair share allocation of the costs for these public improvements. This will ensure that the circulation system continues to provide acceptable levels of service. Chapter VII., Plan Implementation of the Bayfront Specific Plan provides a discussion of the Bayfront Development Fee formula. Burlingame Bayfront Specific Plan - Traffic & Circulation Page 33 V. North Burlingame/Rollins Road Specific Plan - Circulation and Infrastructure On September 20, 2004, the Burlingame City Council, by Resolution No. 85-2004, adopted the North Burlingame/Rollins Road Specific Plan. The Specific Plan was amended by the Burlingame City Council on February 5, 2007, by Resolution No. 13-2007. Following is Chapter 5 of the Adopted Specific Plan — Circulation and Infrastructure. 1. ROADWAY IMPROVEMENTS There are no intersection improvements needed to implement the North Burlingame/Rollins Road Specific Plan, however, two roadway changes are proposed. They are not expected to have an effect on roadway or intersection capacity and are discussed below. New Connection between Rollins Road and Adrian Road — Part of the Specific Plan's land use component suggests opportunity sites for new car dealerships on Adrian Road, just west of U.S. 101. Existing access to this area fronting U.S. 101 is indirect via Adrian Road in Millbrae or David Road from Rollins Road to the south. The two suggested sites would provide increased visibility for these businesses locating there. To facilitate this visibility and the accessibility of those sites, the Plan recommends that a road be constructed to improve access to the auto dealerships from the Rollins Road area, by providing a more direct and visible link to the potential auto dealership sites. The exact location of this road will be determined as properties develop and opportunities arise. This new roadway connection is not expected to have any effect on roadway capacity or operations. Adjustment to EI Camino Real Cross-section — Within the project study area, EI Camino Real is a six -lane facility with adjacent landscape berms and frontage roads. The North Burlingame/Rollins Road Specific Plan calls for adjusting this cross-section to remove the frontage roads on either side of EI Camino Real. In its place, the Plan calls for phased development of a more pedestrian -friendly land use along the corridor. This phasing scenario is described in Chapter 3 of the North Burlingame/Rollins Road Specific Plan. In addition, the Plan calls for enhancement to pedestrian and bicycle facilities along EI Camino Real, including wide sidewalks, streetscape improvements and on -street parking that would improve pedestrian and bicycle circulation and safety. These improvements are not expected to have an effect on traffic operations since, except for median strip improvements, they will occur on City property adjacent to the Caltrans (State) right-of- way. Three through traffic lanes in each direction should be maintained on EI Camino Real. ✓ STATUS UPDATE., Further study since the specific plan was adopted has shown that this concept may be unworkable. The frontage roads are controlled by Caltrans, and in some instances contain utilities. An alternative would be to design the frontage roads in a multi -lane "boulevard" style, including on -street parking to serve businesses and wide sidewalks to enhance the pedestrian environment. 2. STREETSCAPE IMPROVEMENTS The North Burlingame/Rollins Road Specific Plan recommends the creation of cross-sectional standards for EI Camino Real, Trousdale Drive, California Drive, Magnolia Avenue and Rollins Road. These standards will help to define the ambience for future development in each area. These street standards are limited to streetscape improvements, such as bicycle lanes, wider sidewalks, street furniture and trees. These improvements should enhance the North Burlingame/Rollins Road Specific Plan Page 34 Circulation and Infrastructure pedestrian and bicycle environment without significantly compromising the capacity of the roadway network. EI Camino Real — The EI Camino Real cross-section, shown in Figure V-1, would be reconfigured to clarify pedestrian and vehicular travel patterns and facilitate greater pedestrian circulation in North Burlingame on land that is currently dedicated to service and frontage roads. The reconfiguration would create a substantial amount of new developable land that can then be used to develop street frontages that are primarily upper level residential uses over ground -floor retail with office uses above. New buildings would frame a more deliberate pedestrian friendly and memorable entry to Burlingame. Figure V-2 shows an overlay of the proposed change superimposed over an aerial photograph of the existing EI Camino Real to illustrate that there is essentially no change to the existing travel lane configuration. EI Camino Real would become a vibrant and pedestrian friendly retail corridor to serve local residents. Parking lanes would be included to buffer pedestrians from traffic lanes. The improvements will include street trees at regular intervals that will supplement the existing Eucalyptus canopy and provide shade for pedestrian areas. Street lights, benches and other furnishings would be part of the streetscape improvements. The improvements would foster safer and more spatially defined pedestrian circulation routes along EI Camino Real and strengthen connections between the Mills Peninsula Hospital, retail opportunities in Burlingame Plaza and the Millbrae Intermodal station. ✓ STATUS UPDATE: Further study since the specific plan was adopted has shown that this concept may be unworkable. The frontage roads are controlled by Caltrans, and in some instances contain utilities. An alternative would be to design the frontage roads in a multi -lane "boulevard" style, including on -street parking to serve businesses and wide sidewalks to enhance the pedestrian environment.

Trousdale Drive Trousdale Drive — Trousdale Drive is a busy four lane arterial, running east -west that connects Interstate 280 with EI Camino Real and California Drive. Streetscape improvements on Trousdale Drive, illustrated in Figures 5-3 and 5-6, can enhance the pedestrian environment while also contributing to the reduction of vehicular speeds and the creation of a generally safer environment for pedestrians. The concepts illustrated anticipate a new entrance to Mills Peninsula Hospital on Trousdale Drive at Magnolia Avenue and reconfiguration of travel lanes to accommodate the shifted hospital -related traffic. Curb extensions at corners, or "bulb outs," at the intersection of Trousdale Drive and EI Camino Real would help to reduce traffic speeds at this busy intersection while also creating shorter crossing distances for pedestrians. The bulb out will delineate parking lanes, where they exist, on Trousdale Drive. Tree wells will be cut into the existing ten foot sidewalks to allow the planting of street trees at regular intervals. Pedestrian crosswalks would be added at appropriate locations to facilitate greater and safer pedestrian use. Improvements will include pedestrian -scaled street lighting. These amenities will also improve pedestrian access to Mills Peninsula Hospital for people using BART and other public transit. 0 1 jI �U ' I�! w, I i r i i 1 VU HUR9 HUM O —® __ T__ oil TROUSDALE rill- _ _ _ o A� a o a l ; r I I L i l ;1i Figure V-4.

California Drive California Drive — Traffic volumes on California Drive are likely to increase with the continued operation of the Millbrae Intermodal Station and as transit patrons south of the Specific Plan area use California Drive to access the station via the Millbrae Avenue underpass. Improvements to the streetscape, shown in Figure V-5, and low fencing with landscaping set back from the edge of the sidewalk along California Drive combined with greater pedestrian activity that will result from new development on California Drive parcels, will calm vehicular traffic and contribute to a safe and pleasant pedestrian environment along this route. Bike lanes in both directions will allow for bicycle access from the transit facility to parts of the Specific Plan Area, including the hospital west of EI Camino Real via Murchison Drive or Trousdale Drive. ✓ STATUS UPDATE; Although bike lanes have not been installed, bicycle route signage and "sharrow" street markings have been added to California Drive to allow for bicycle access to the Millbrae Intermodal Station and as a north -south connection through Burlingame. Magnolia Avenue — Magnolia Avenue is a very wide street laid over a 60 -foot wide San Francisco Water District easement. With the completion of the replacement hospital, Magnolia will complete the intersection at the main entrance to the hospital. Magnolia connects Trousdale Drive to Murchison Drive and provides the primary service access for some of the retail establishments at the back of Burlingame Plaza and to the shops which face EI Camino Real. The service entries at the rear of the businesses facing EI Camino share the Magnolia Avenue street facade with the front doors of many other businesses. Curb bulb outs could be added on Magnolia Avenue at the intersection with Trousdale Drive to improve pedestrian access and safety. The bulbouts would narrow the perceived width of travel lanes and contribute to the reduction of traffic speeds. The bulb outs would also reduce pedestrian crossing distances. The current configuration of parallel parking on the west side and a mixture of parallel and diagonal parking on the east side are proposed to remain. North Burlingame/Rollins Road Specific Plan Page 39 Circulation and Infrastructure To break up the street parking visually, street tree bulb outs could be added at regular intervals on the west side and tree wells could be cut into the existing walk on the eastern side to avoid a conflict with the underground water main. Improvements will also include pedestrian scale street lights and additional crosswalks at convenient locations. Figure V-6.

Utilizing the unused shoulders of the EI Portal Channel bridge the gateway will provide pedestrian seating areas, entry signage and landscape elements. Improvements will include the refurbishments of the bridge to include pilasters and upgraded security fencing and railings. Figure V-9. Proposed Gateway Figure V-8. Cross-section through northern Rollins Road Gateway North Burlingame/Rollins Road Specific Plan Page 41 Circulation and Infrastructure Rollins Road — Improvements to Rollins Road, which are illustrated in Figures V-10 and V- 11, will include the installation of street trees in tree wells cut into the existing sidewalks. At locations where the street trees are to be planted, the sidewalk will be reconstructed around the tree locations. The goal of this street tree program is to calm traffic by narrowing the perceived street width, which can cause drivers to reduce their speed. Therefore, it is advantageous for the street trees to be as close to the travel lanes as possible. Rollins Road is also a designated bicycle route in Burlingame's adopted Bicycle Transportation plan. Bicycle lanes have been installed along Rollins Road within the Plan area. Additionally, a significant goal of the North Burlingame/Rollins Road Specific Plan is the creation of a more aesthetically pleasing environment on Rollins Road, and the addition of street trees will help to accomplish that goal. The trees will also shade large areas of the Rollins Road pavement, reducing temperature and glare. The width of the City -owned right- of-way on Rollins Road differs on either side of Easton Creek. South of Easton Creek, the right-of-way is 75 feet, with a sidewalk of approximately 5 feet on either side. North of Easton Creek, the right-of-way is 84 feet, including approximately 5 feet between the back of the sidewalk and the property line. Therefore, as shown in Figures 5-10 and 5-11, construction of the tree wells and realigned sidewalks in the section of Rollins Road below Easton Creek will require the City to acquire an easement from property owners. Construction of this street tree program in this more constrained section of Rollins Road may be limited by other improvements on these properties and will need to be reviewed on a parcel by parcel basis.

Trees were chosen based on their long term appeal, however, as with any tree species the interim look and growth pattern of the tree is dependent on the City of Burlingame's tree maintenance program. It is suggested that at the time of planting, steps to increase the future heath of the tree be taken. These efforts include proper soil amendment to reduce soil compaction and water tubes to induce deep root growth. It should be expected that during periods of a tree's normal growth it will encroach on a roadway. The pruning of trees in order to avoid conflicts with roadways will be necessary during these initial periods of growth. Trees should be pruned to minimize this impact and with the future appearance of the tree in mind. Table V-1 indicates the recommended street trees to be used for streetscape improvements in the Specific Plan Area. Most trees are listed in the City of Burlingame's Planning Department Tree List. The Accolade Elm has been considered as a replacement tree for sections of EI Camino Real south of the Plan Area. It is very similar to Elm trees that were historically planted on EI Camino Real and is one of the best Elm species for resisting the attack of Dutch Elm disease.

PEDESTRIAN NETWORK In the Rollins Road area, a creekside open space and pedestrian trail system would provide amenities and pedestrian and bike facilities for area businesses as well as recreation opportunities Rollins Road workers and Burlingame residents. These open space areas, combined with streetscape improvements on Rollins Road, will facilitate safer and more attractive non -vehicular connections between Rollins Road employment destinations and transit opportunities to the north in Millbrae and to the south on Broadway. The proposed network is shown in Figure V-12 and a conceptual illustration of these creekside areas is shown in Figure V-13. The gradual development of a trail network will occur over time as opportunities arise to acquire access by purchase or gift. Except where necessary to mitigate impacts of a particular project, no conveyance of public access rights is intended to be imposed on projects in the area. 0000000 Sidewalk and Street Tree Impr0vemenu Trail Network Figure V-12.

PARKING As shown in the design guidelines in Chapter 6, on-site parking throughout the Specific Plan area should be encouraged to be located behind buildings in order to adequately define the pedestrian realm and create safe and aesthetically -pleasing environments on Burlingame sidewalks and streets. However, on parcels with lot frontage on EI Camino Real at grade parking visible or accessed from EI Camino should be discouraged. This parking will be supplemented by on -street parking, including some portions of EI Camino Real, on which parallel curb parking should be provided as part of its redesign. North Burlingame/Rollins Road Specific Plan Page 46 Circulation and Infrastructure VI. Burlingame Downtown Specific Plan - Circulation and Parking On October 4, 2010, the Burlingame City Council, by Resolution No. 73-2010, adopted the Burlingame Downtown Specific Plan. Following is Chapter 7 of the Adopted Specific Plan - Circulation and Parking. 1. RECOMMENDED ROADWAY NETWORK IMPROVEMENTS The Downtown Specific Plan includes a series of roadway projects intended to either mitigate existing or anticipated traffic conditions, or otherwise satisfy urban design objectives for streetscapes, pedestrian and bicycle access and open space. Existing Roadway Network - Regional access to Downtown Burlingame is provided via Highway 101 freeway. The closest interchanges with the freeway are located at Peninsula Avenue (southern edge of the plan area) and at Broadway (north of the plan area). The Peninsula interchange provides access in the northbound direction only, while the Broadway interchange provides access for both northbound and southbound traffic. A system of major arterials accommodates the longer distance local trips and connects Burlingame with adjacent communities. These include EI Camino Real (State Highway 82) and California Drive providing north -south access. Other major arterials include Peninsula Avenue and Oak Grove Avenue. These arterials carry the major volume of east -west trips and connect with State highways and freeways. The other elements of the street system are secondary arterials, such as Howard Avenue, that connect collector and local access streets to the major arterials. Collector streets feed traffic to the arterials and major centers of activity in Burlingame. Based on existing travel patterns, the majority of project -traffic would occur along California Drive heading towards Burlingame Avenue and Howard Avenue from the north and south. Additional project -traffic would occur along Howard Avenue, Burlingame Avenue, and Peninsula Avenue, and Primrose Road. Traffic bound for downtown on EI Camino Real is expected to exit from EI Camino Real at the first opportunity and utilize the east -west collector roadways. As such, traffic not bound for downtown will likely bypass and continue traveling along EI Camino Real, while the majority of downtown -related traffic will likely enter via Park Road, Primrose Road, Bayswater Avenue, Howard Avenue, and Burlingame Avenue. In addition, on- and off-street parking facilities are primarily located along these local roadways, which would attract patrons to exit EI Camino Real to access the parking. Downtown Specific Plan - Circulation & Parking Page 47 Considering location and types of development projected in the plan, traffic generated by future downtown development is expected to primarily affect the following intersections: • EI Camino Real/Howard Ave • California Dr/Lorton Ave • Burlingame Ave/Park Rd • EI Camino Real/Peninsula Ave/Park Rd • Primrose Rd/Chapin Ave • California Dr/Peninsula Ave • Primrose Rd/Bellevue Ave • California Dr/Howard Ave/Highland Ave • Primrose Rd/Douglas Ave Traffic mitigation measures, such as signalization and signal timing adjustments have been proposed in order to reduce potential impacts to these intersections. Traffic calming could also be implemented in surrounding neighborhoods if necessary to address cut -through traffic. California Drive/Lorton Avenue Intersection - The California Drive/Lorton intersection needs improvement, regardless of possible future development. The unconventional layout of the intersection is inefficient, and is confusing for both vehicles and pedestrians. The Downtown Specific Plan includes two alternative reconfigurations for the California Drive/Lorton Avenue intersection. Both would be acceptable choices for improving vehicle and pedestrian circulation through the intersection, and both could accommodate traffic from anticipated future development as described in this specific plan. Option 1: Signalized Intersection Option 1 would refine the current configuration with a more straightforward intersection design, and the addition of a traffic signal. With this improvement, the intersection will have an improved level of service and reduce vehicle delays significantly. The intersection could also be configured to create a small usable open space, as described in Chapter 4: Streetscapes and Open Space of the Downtown Specific Plan. Option 2: Roundabout City engineering staff has been actively studying the possibility of a roundabout design to mitigate existing and future traffic conditions. This would improve traffic safety and act as a traffic calming measure. In addition, the traffic circle at the center of the roundabout would have attractive landscaping and could have a prominent design element such as flowers or a monument, as described in Chapter 4: Streetscapes & Open Space of the Downtown Specific Plan. Traffic would enter the roundabout and circulate one-way around a center circular island, typically in a counterclockwise direction. On California Drive, travel lanes would be reduced from two lanes to one lane at the roundabout entrance in order to allow orderly traffic flow into the circle. Crosswalks would extend around the outer circle of the roundabout, with refuge islands at intermediate positions. Downtown Specific Plan - Circulation & Parking Page 48 Civic Center Circle - The intersection of Primrose Road, Bellevue Avenue and Douglas Avenue between the Library and City Hall currently is complex, inefficient, and confusing. The existing divided traffic islands could be replaced with a single traffic circle, with crosswalks connecting each corner of the streets leading to the circle. The circle could provide a small open space, as described in Chapter 4: Streetscapes and Open Space. This reconfiguration would improve the function of the intersection and provide an additional open space amenity. Highland Avenue - The last block of Highland Avenue between California Drive and Howard Avenue is a one-way street and primarily serves to provide access and parking to the businesses fronting the street, and also provides a short- cut for vehicles turning right from southbound California Drive onto Howard Avenue. Even with this short-cut function, however, there are minimal traffic volumes along this block during the peak hours. Given the limited function of the street segment and its potential to complicate traffic patterns, there could be justification for narrowing or closing the street segment to improve the streetscape and increase the size of the adjoining open space. Depending on the mix of businesses alongside, closing the street and replacing it with open space frontage could either be an asset to the businesses or be detrimental. Uses such as restaurants may appreciate frontage on an open space, but retailers may value the proximity of parking and access more than open space. Since the majority of traffic would travel through on California Drive and would not turn onto Highland Avenue, the closure or narrowing of the roadway would not impact the traffic operations at the California Drive/Howard Avenue intersection. Narrowing the segment and redesigning it to create a more unified composition with the adjoining open space could be a satisfactory option that would retain traffic circulation and parking, but be more oriented to the adjacent businesses rather than to traffic making a short-cut to Howard Avenue. The street could be redesigned with a "flexible zone" where the parking area and traffic lane would be shared by pedestrians, bicyclists, and automobiles. This concept would involve special paving and flush integrated curbs, a greater number of trees, street furniture, and bicycle parking. The intention would be to create a more seamless transition between the street area and the open space area. cv�D'�Da California Drive/Lorton Avenue Option 1: Signalized Intersection California Drive/Lorton Avenue Option 2: Roundabout Civic Center Circle t \\ Lmd� AMaei i \ 0 �1 Highland Avenue Plaza Downtown Specific Plan - Circulation & Parking Page 49 California Drive Reconfiguration — A concept that merits further study beyond the scope of the Downtown Specific Plan would be to reconfigure the California Drive traffic lanes to better serve traffic flow and accommodate bicycles. Currently California Drive has two traffic lanes in each direction, but due to the large number of turns in center lanes, the center lanes effectively do not function for through traffic. A reconfiguration could have one clear, through traffic lane in each direction, together with a center median/turn lane to accommodate turns. The traffic lanes would remain clear of obstructions so traffic flow would be steady (but calm), while turns would be accommodated separately from the through traffic. The redesign would provide enough room for generous bicycle lanes on each side, so California Drive would become a convenient and effective bicycle route through Burlingame and to Downtown. Existing on -street parking would also be accommodated. This approach, sometimes referred to as a "road diet," has been demonstrated to be very effective elsewhere in the Bay Area on streets with comparable traffic volumes and characteristics to California Drive. Further study would need to consider impacts along the length of California Drive to ensure that traffic does not spill into adjacent neighborhoods. However, with the functional and aesthetic improvements, the expectation would be that California Drive would become a preferred access route into Downtown, as well as between Downtown and the Broadway commercial district. Currently California drive has two traffic lanes in each direction, but due to the large number of turns in center lanes, the center lanes do not function for through traffic. Reconfigured California Drive with one travel lane in each direction, center median/turn lane, and bike lanes. Downtown Specific Plan — Circulation & Parking Page 50 EI Camino Real/Peninsula Avenue/Park Road Signalization — Traffic analysis has projected that the EI Camino Real/Peninsula Avenue/Park Road intersection could experience a potentially significant reduction in level of service depending on amount of downtown development in the future. However, even with a relatively high level of development in the future, these impacts could be reduced with changes to the traffic signal timing. By increasing the signal green time by ten seconds in the Peninsula Avenue westbound approach and Park Road southwest approach, and removing ten seconds of green signal time in the northbound and southbound EI Camino Real approaches, the potential impacts would be reduced to less -than -significant levels. California Drive/Howard Avenue Signalization — Traffic analysis has projected that the California Drive/Howard Avenue intersection could experience a potentially significant reduction in level of service depending on amount of downtown development in the future. However, even with a relatively high level of development in the future, these impacts could be reduced with changes to the traffic signal timing. By increasing the signal green time by five seconds in the California Drive northbound and southbound directions and removing five seconds of green signal time in the Howard Avenue eastbound and westbound approaches, the potential impacts would be reduced to less -than -significant levels. 2. TRANSIT The following discussion includes descriptions of each transit service provider that serves Downtown Burlingame. System -level ridership, performance measures, and planned transit improvements specific to transit stations and stops in Burlingame are further reviewed. Caltrain - Caltrain provides local and commuter train service between San Francisco and San Jose, with weekday commute -hour service to Gilroy. The main objectives of the Caltrain Short Range Transportation Plan (2008) included addressing station needs, coordinating service with connecting transit operators throughout the Bay Area, improving station access for all passengers, and enhancing system performance. Over the long-term, Caltrain patronage has risen and is anticipated to continue to do so. Station improvements were completed at the Burlingame station to allow trains traveling in opposing directions to serve the same station simultaneously without incurring delay. Appropriate fencing has also been installed at the station. The Downtown Specific Plan encourages more intensive development in many of the blocks close to the Caltrain station, which should allow more people to take advantage of the train for some of their transportation needs. Compared to other Caltrain stations, passenger boardings and capacity utilization rates at the Burlingame Station are relatively moderate -to -low. However, the land use plan for the Downtown Specific Plan encourages more intensive development in many of the blocks within close proximity to the train station, which should allow more people to take advantage of the train for some of their transportation needs. The plan encourages more frequent stops at the Burlingame Avenue station to encourage ridership and capitalize on more intensive development downtown near the train station. Downtown Specific Plan — Circulation & Parking Page 51 provides access to Downtown Burlingame from the City's bayfront hotel area east of the Bayshore Freeway. Key samlrans improvements relative to Downtown Burlingame include prioritization of service improvements in areas where high density and mixed-use developments are provided. Burlingame Downtown Shuttle - This local service provides access to Downtown Burlingame from the City's bayfront hotel area east of the Bayshore Freeway. There is a scheduled stop downtown at the Burlingame Caltrain Station. If there is further development in the bayfront area in the future, there may be potential to expand the patronage and extent of service of the shuttle. This could be a benefit to downtown businesses with additional customers, as well as downtown residents who could use the shuttle to access bayfront recreational facilities. SamTrans - SamTrans provides bus service throughout San Mateo County as well as to San Francisco and Palo Alto. There are several major transit routes which have stops in the Downtown area, on EI Camino Real and California Drive, with connections to Caltrain and to the Millbrae BART station. Based on SamTrans Short Range Transportation Plan (SRTP), there are several planned improvements to enhance system performance, increase ridership, and improve accessibility. Key improvements relative to Downtown Burlingame include prioritization of service improvements in areas where high density and mixed-use developments are provided. In addition, the SRTP states that transit service along EI Camino Real experiences significant demand and SamTrans has therefore added an express bus service along the corridor. The land use plan for the Downtown Specific Plan encourages more intensive development in many of the blocks close to EI Camino Real, which should help increase transit demand along the corridor. In order to increase intercity transit use, and to accommodate the growing aging population, Samtrans plans to increase the use of community-based shuttles throughout the transit network. Downtown Specific Plan - Circulation & Parking Page 52 California High Speed Rail —The California High -Speed Rail (CHSR) is a rail line in the planning stages that will provide a high-speed link between San Francisco and Los Angeles, as well as a number of other key destinations. Though the CHSR will not stop in Burlingame, the proposed corridor for the project runs north -south through the city along the existing Caltrain right-of-way. Given that the CHSR alignment is proposed to pass through Burlingame and its downtown, there is concern over the potential for the rail line to create a physical barrier through the city if it involves bridging, elevated tracks, or the use of retaining walls. Like other peninsula cities, Burlingame has indicated a preference for having the rail line in an underground tunnel rather than at surface or above grade Having the line underground would be more compatible with the continued economic vitality and quality of life of Burlingame and its downtown. It would also be more compatible with the preservation of valuable historic resources such as the eucalyptus grove and the Burlingame Avenue and Broadway train stations. If all rail lines are accommodated underground along the length of the peninsula alignment, it will enable dozens of surface crossings to be relieved of train conflicts, thereby easing access at many scales and reducing congestion throughout the peninsula. While the CHSR is beyond the scope of the Downtown Specific Plan, the project will have an important impact on Downtown Burlingame. It is essential that the CHSR planning process thoroughly investigate and mitigate impacts on Caltrain service, utilities, and effects that may concern schools, residents, and businesses. 3. PEDESTRIAN CIRCULATION Most of Downtown Burlingame is highly pedestrian -oriented and has a high amount of pedestrian traffic. Pedestrian activity is primarily the result of the amount of retail, office, and restaurant land uses in the heart of Downtown, as well as the proximity to surrounding residential neighborhoods. Increasing pedestrian convenience and safety is an objective in Downtown Burlingame, and several actions are proposed to improve pedestrian conditions. These include implementing traffic -calming measures (mid -block crossings, traffic circles, paving variations), increasing sidewalk "linkages" to improve connectivity to and within downtown, and widening sidewalks. These measures are more thoroughly described in Chapter 4: Streetscapes and Open Spaces of the Downtown Specific Plan. Overall, these measures would improve pedestrian safety and encourage residents and visitors to patronize Downtown Burlingame. Increasing pedestrian convenience and safety is an objective in Downtown Burlingame. Downtown Specific Plan — Circulation & Parking Page 53 4. BICYCLES An objective of the Downtown Specific Plan is for bicycles to be a viable choice for getting to downtown. Safety, ease of access, and parking must all be carefully considered so that people are able to consider bicycling as an appealing and realistic means of transportation. If people are able to swap automobile trips for bicycle trips, not only would there be environmental advantages in terms of reduced greenhouse emissions, but there would be less of a need for the City to provide additional, costly parking facilities for autos over the long-term. Bicycles can be a viable choice for getting to and around downtown. Bicycle Routes - Bicycle routes in Downtown Burlingame include: • Primrose Road - from Oak Grove Avenue (north) to Howard Avenue (south). • Highland Avenue - from Howard Avenue (north) to Peninsula Avenue (south) and continues south of Peninsula Avenue. • California Drive - from Burlingame City Limits (north) to Howard Avenue (south). Within Downtown, this route intersects with Burlingame Avenue. • Howard Avenue - from Humboldt Road (east) to Occidental Avenue (west). Within Downtown, this route intersects with EI Camino Real, Primrose Road, Park Road, Lorton Avenue, and Highland Avenue. Howard Avenue also includes a bicycle lane. If California Drive is reconfigured as described in Section A, it offers the potential to be a significant bicycle route into Downtown from neighborhoods to the north, south, and east. Cyclists can then access Howard Avenue to reach the side streets, and the side streets to reach the center of the downtown district. As streetscape improvements are implemented along Howard Avenue and the side streets, accommodations for bicycles should be a key design consideration. Lanes should provide adequate clearances, and intersections should be designed to minimize automobile and bicycle conflicts. Side streets can be designed and clearly signed as "sharrows" where it is clear that the roadway are to be shared by bicycles and automobiles, and to alert motorists of the presence of bicycles. Downtown Specific Plan - Circulation & Parking Page 54 Bicycle Strategies and Guidelines The desirability and effectiveness of bicycles to serve Downtown can be improved with the following enhancements: Short -Term Parking - Public Bike Racks: Individual bike racks are part of a two-tier bicycle parking strategy for Downtown. Generally, bike racks are useful for short-term parking (from a few minutes to a few hours), and should be provided throughout the redesigned streetscapes to be convenient to businesses and attractions. Figure 7-1 shows existing locations of bike racks throughout Downtown. Long -Term Parking - Central Bike Parking Facility. A centrally -located, convenient, and highly visible facility should be established for longer visits downtown (from a few hours to a full day or work shift). As opposed to sidewalk bike racks, which are provided for short-term convenience, the central facility would appeal to those wanting to store their bicycles for a longer period of time. The concept would be that someone cycling to Downtown could proceed directly to the central parking facility with knowledge that they would be able to find convenient and secure longer term parking. Ideally, the parking facility would offer some protection from weather, and could offer a choice of racks and electronic lockers. The facility should be located in a visible, central location so that it serves as a social hub and offers a measure of security. Initially the facility could be established in one of the central public parking lots, and over time could grow and be located in the Lot E signature open space, or in a nearby parking lot or structure. the presence of bicycles where there is not sufficient space for a dedicated bike lane. throughout downtown are useful for convenient, short-term parking, Downtown Specific Plan - Circulation & Parking Page 55 Downtown Specific Plan Circulation and Parking Page 56 Bicycle Accommodations in New Developments: New development should provide safe, secure facilities for bicycles. This can be accomplished in a number of ways, depending on the type of development. Where possible, secured, indoor parking space (i.e. lockable, caged space) for bikes should be provided in all new residential and commercial buildings. New projects should include bike stalls to allow users the opportunity to securely store their bicycles. These can include racks or hooks on walls in front of parking spaces in residential buildings, and designated and secure bicycle storage areas in commercial buildings. Modest locker facilities in new, larger Commercial/Mixed Use projects should also be provided. Lockers should be sufficient to store helmets and other necessary equipment. A centrally -located bicycle parking facility would be intended for protected long-term parking and also serve as a social hub. Downtown Specific Plan Circulation and Parking Page 57 7. Downtown Specific Plan Circulation and Parking Page 58 S. PARKING This section outlines the parking supply plan for the Downtown Burlingame municipal facilities. It is expected that the parking supply for future development will be met by a combination of on-site parking and an enhancement of the existing public parking facilities in the Downtown area. Parking requirements for development are outlined in Chapter 3: Land Use of the Downtown Specific Plan. Generally, retail, restaurant and personal service uses on the ground floor are exempt from parking requirements within the Downtown Parking Sector. For commercial uses that are required to provide parking (upper floors within the Parking Sector, and all floors outside the Parking Sector) requirements can either be met on-site or through payment of an in -lieu fee. In -lieu fees will be used to build structured parking at existing public parking lots in the Downtown areas. Shared Parking Concept The vision for Downtown Burlingame is a mix of uses. A mix of uses, as opposed to a predominance of a single use, has positive implications on parking demand. For example, retail land uses tend to experience peak hour parking demand between 3:00 PM and 4:00 PM during the weekday and between 1:00 PM and 2:00 PM during the weekend. Office land uses experience 100 percent parking occupancy between 10:00 AM and 11:00 AM during the weekday, but very little demand on weekends. Hotel uses experience peak parking demand between 5:00 AM and 6:00 AM during the weekday and weekend. Residential uses experience peak hour parking demand between 5:00 AM and 6:00 AM during the weekday and weekend. As a result of the different times of peak parking demand by these complementary uses, demand is overlapping rather than additive. Thus less parking is required. The ability for different uses to share the common parking areas at different times of day reduces the overall parking demand. However, as Downtown grows, there will be near-term and longer- term parking needs to accommodate. The Downtown Specific Plan recognizes the opportunities for shared parking. For projects with off-street parking included on site, different uses with different peak demands can utilize the same parking spaces at different times of day, allowing fewer parking spaces than if each use were fully parked. The parking standards outlined in Chapter 3: Land Use of the Downtown Specific Plan include provisions to reduce on-site parking when the mix of uses is complementary and can share parking spaces. The municipal lots also benefit from the shared nature of parking, on a larger scale. The ratios for off-site parking (whether exempt or provided through an in -lieu arrangement) account for the different peak demands for different uses, as well as the ability for patrons to visit more than one use without re -parking. Over the long term, the overlapping demands of different uses and the ability to share the same spaces in the municipal facilities will require fewer new public parking facilities than if each use had its own designated parking. Make Better Use of Existing Parking Facilities Downtown Burlingame consists of 20 City -owned off-street parking facilities as well as metered on -street parking located on most local roadways (as shown in Figure 7-2). While parking can be tight in some areas of Downtown (particularly near active shopping and dining areas), as a whole there is available parking supply that can be better utilized to serve near-term needs. Downtown Specific Plan Circulation and Parking Page 59 In order to make best use of existing facilities to serve current and near-term demand, strategies can include adjusting parking pricing and time restrictions, implementing valet/attended parking operations, modifying parking enforcement strategies, implementing parking permits for residents/employees, introducing a car -share arrangement, and improving wayfinding and signage for parking facilities. Many of these measures have been implemented in the past with success, and could continue to be adjusted for further optimization of existing resources. Expand Parking Facilities As Downtown grows, there may be upper limits to how much optimization can be gained from the existing parking facilities. In order to accommodate some of the demand from new development (since some will be met on-site), as well as to be able to provide amenities such as the signature open space proposed for Lot E, one or more parking structures may be necessary. Several studies have been completed to determine which city -owned parking lots could most efficiently accommodate parking structures, and there are several options available. A couple of choices are discussed below, although the final decisions should be made when funding is available based on development patterns and projections at that time. Lot J Because it is one of the larger lots, Lot J has been recommended for structured parking by the city's parking consultants. This location makes sense because it is centrally located, and because a structure on Lot J could most easily provide the parking that will be needed to compensate for the loss of Lot E, when it is converted to community open space. In fact, constructing a parking structure on Lot J and creating a new open space on Lot E should be thought of as one project with two phases, the first being the construction of the parking structure. While Lot J is closed during construction, downtown Burlingame would lose 69 parking spaces. However, there is sufficient capacity in Lots L, W and C to temporarily make up for this loss. Lots A and A-3 Another potential site for a parking structure is to combine Lots A and A-3 along Donnelly Avenue, and add an additional story on to the combined structure. At least half of Lot A should be usable during construction, and the other spaces lost during construction can be accommodated through existing capacity in Lots C, O, V, M, J, and L. Howard Avenue Focus Area The Downtown Specific Plan provides incentives to encourage new mixed use development along the Howard Avenue. Similar to the parking requirements that have been in place along Burlingame Avenue, the Specific Plan would exempt ground floor retail, personal service and restaurant uses on Howard Avenue from on-site parking requirements, and would allow parking for upper floor commercial uses to be provided off-site through an in - lieu fee arrangement. Howard Avenue has on -street parking along its length, and there are four off-street parking facilities in the vicinity. Lots F and N have traditionally experienced high parking demand during the weekday peak, whereas Lots G and W have experienced more moderate demand during the weekday peak and could absorb the additional parking demand associated with new development. During the weekend peak, all four lots have traditionally been underutilized, so the additional parking demand associated with new development could be Downtown Specific Plan Circulation and Parking Page 60 accommodated. If all residential parking is provided on-site, anticipated parking demand along Howard Avenue can be fully accommodated within existing parking lots. Ongoing Monitoring and Adjustments As development occurs in the downtown area, parking and circulation should be regularly monitored so that adjustments can be made to city regulations and/or facilities as necessary. Downtown Specific Plan Circulation and Parking Page 61 VI. Next Steps Begininning in early 2015 the community will be embarking on a comprehensive update of the General Plan. This will provide an opportunity to consider circulation and transportation issues in context with any changes to land use and other elements of the General Plan. Any changes to circulation and transportation policies will be incorporated into the full General Plan update. Next Steps Page 62 I. Current Circulation Element On October 20. 1969 by Resolution No 87-69 the Burlingame City Council adopted the Burlingame General Plan, which included the followina Circulation Element OVERVIEW An integrated system is proposed including the Present Southern Pacific Railroad (primarily fefincluding both passenger service and through movement of freight), a rapid tFansit lipe ad aEent to the S. them Paelfle _ - , local transit, and four categories of streets and highways. The street and highway system would accommodate private passenger automobiles, trucks and local transit vehicles. The integrated system is proposed to include all modes of travel including walking bicycling and transit allowing users of all ages and abilities to reach destinations in the community and region safelv and directly. POPULATION In ' ^z„ 7,,32Q2000. 28.128 people lived in the City of Burlingame. About 2320.6% of these people were under the age of 4920 and 3415.2% were over 6465.

TRANSIT An integrated system of regional rapid transit and local transitshatild ehas been developed to serve Burlingame residents and workers and to provide for the high volume through - movement that w"i haveneeds to be accommodated in this corridor in transot lo;e If determined appropriate grade separations should be eeFRpletely grade sepaFated, a_^'--_ considered to accommodate local street crossings to keep 7 deigsity lRigevatave use ef existing and i9ew types ef vehieles weuld Fnake possible higher deRsity The Caltrain commuter line has been established along the existing Southern Pacific Railway SamTrans Bus lines Opportunities exist for Complete Streets projects along this corridor. A Complete Streets oroiect is proposed for Carolan Avenue between Oak Grove Avenue and Broadway, to accommodate bicycle lanes and pedestrian improvements This oroiect is now in are also opportunities near the transit stations identified in the Downtown Specific Plan and the North Burlingame Rollins Road Specific Plan for higher density development that will benefit from proximity to public transit and to the Complete Streets amenities STREETS AND HIGHWAYS Bayshore Freeway (Highway 101) and Junipero Freeway (280 Freeway) are recognized in the plan. The main proposals affecting the freeways are additions and improvements to the interchanges at Millbrae Avenue, Broadway, and Peninsula Avenue to provide for full directional movement at each of these interchanges and to accommodate the increasing volumes of traffic Current Circulation Element Page 2 that will be generated, particularly from the industrial areas. The Millbrae Avenue and Peninsula Interchange improvements have been completed and the Broadway interchange oroiect began construction in 2014 These interchange improvements include facilities for bicycles and pedestrians using the overcrossings of US 101 A system of major arterials is proposed to take care of longer distance local trips and to connect Burlingame with adjacent communities. These include EI Camino Real (a State highway), California Drive, and Bayshore Highway and its extension through the Anza Pacific development (Airport Boulevard) for major north -south movements. The latter route would connect with the San Francisco Airport on the north and with the major street system in the City of San Mateo on the south. unfaftuf9ate but, with existing eendit ens, there dees Rat seeffl to be any i3faetleal selatien that Airport Boulevard has been completed to orovide through traffic in the Bayfront area and a Bayfront trail system has been developed adjacent to Bayside Park to provide pedestrian and bicycle travel through this area. In addition, bicycle lanes were recently added to Airport Boulevard Other major arterials include Millbrae Avenue (in the City of Millbrae), Trousdale Drive, Carmelita Avenue from EI Camino Real to California Drive, and railFead,Oak Grove Avenue and Peninsula Avenue. These arterials would carry the major volume of east -west trips and connect with State highways and freeways. The other elements of the street system are secondary arterials connecting collector and local access streets to the major arterials, and collector streets to feed traffic to the arterials and major centers of activity in Burlingame. The systems of streets proposed around the Broadway shopping center and the Burlingame Avenue shopping center are of particular importance. These are intended to provide movement around the centers, connect to parking lots, and permit the central portions of these shopping centers to be fFeed all OF +AerAprovide for limited vehicular traffic and turned over primarily to pedestrians. GRADE SEPARATION STRUCTURES Railroad grade separations are recommended at Broadway, Oak Grove, Howard, and Peninsula Avenues. A highway overpass is needed across Bayshore Freeway to connect Millsdale and East Millsdale Industrial areas. (See also proposals under the heading, Broadway-Bayshore Interchange Area.) FeeemmeRded `e eeFineetA bicycle pedestrian overcrossing of Highway 101 has been constructed adjacent to the Broadway interchange to provide access to Bayside Park from the vee neighborhoods south of ,,,,ehester I)FiveBroadway. PARKWAY In addition to the other elements of the circulation system, it is recommended that a parkway be established along the Bayfront connecting Burlingame's Bayside Park with San Mateo County's Coyote Point Park. Provisions for the wateFfFe4Bayfront trail system are included in the Bayfront Specific Plan, using the Bay Conservation and Development Commission Plan as a guide. Portions of the trail have been developed in conjunction with development projects alono the Bay shoreline. However, there are gaps in the trail system that will only be completed when the remaining properties with Bay frontage are developed. BROADWAY-BAYSHORE INTERCHANGE AREA Current Circulation Element Page 3 Major changes are needed in the circulation system around the Bayshore-Broadway interchange and the proposed grade separation at Broadway and the railroad. The changes should be designed to: 1. Reduce the congestion at the present intersection at Rollins Road and Broadway by providing other means of access to Millsdale and by reducing points of conflict. 2. Provide as much flexibility as possible so that future changes in travel patterns can be accommodated within the system. 3. Provide alternative routes of travel so that individual drivers have some options to permit them to avoid points of congestion. (Traffic Flow tends to be somewhat self- adjusting where alternative paths of travel are available.) 4. Increase capacity throughout the Broadway-Bayshore Area by reducing conflicts through traffic control measures, providing added lanes at critical points, and grade separating turning movements wherever feasible. More specific proposals are: 1. Grade separate Broadway and the Southern Pacific Railroad. 2. Provide two completely new links to permit some traffic to avoid the Broadway -Rollins Road intersection. One of these should connect the Millsdale and East Millsdale Industrial areas with an overpass on Bayshore Freeway. The other link proposed is a new street southeast of Cadillac Way extending from Bayshore Boulevard to Carolan Avenue. This new street should be obtained when the presently vacant land is developed. 3. On Bayshore Freeway, move the entrance to the southbound off -ramp as far north as possible and provide connections to Marsten Road, Broadway and Cadillac Way. Many of these issues will be resolved by the construction of the Broadway Interchange The improvements at the interchange are expected to increase the capacity of the BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN FACILITIES facilities.

DISCUSSION To help promote the vitality of the Broadway Commercial District, amendments to the zoning regulations have been prepared that eliminate the limitations on number of food establishments in the District and eliminate the requirement for a conditional use permit for health service uses located above the ground floor. The zoning code definition of food establishments includes bars, full service restaurants, limited food service restaurants, and specialty food shops. Health services are defined as an office, clinic, laboratory or other facility engaged in furnishing medical, surgical or other services including a physician, dentist, dental technician, chiropractor, acupressurist, acupuncturist, therapist, counselor other similar occupation. Current C-1 (Broadway Commercial Area) Zoning Restrictions: The C-1 zoning district regulations (C.S. 25.30) contain specific provisions that apply only to the Broadway Commercial Area (C.S. 25.30.065 and 25.30.070). Currently the zoning limits both the number and location of food establishments in the Broadway Commercial Area based upon the City Council approval of the Broadway food establishments in October 1999. In all other C-1 zoned areas, the code allows food establishment by right as a permitted use. In the Broadway Commercial Area health services are only allowed above the first floor with a Conditional Use Permit. In all other C-1 zoned areas, the code requires a Conditional Use Permit for health services on all levels. Proposed C-1 (Broadway Commercial Area) Zoning Changes: The proposed amendment to the C-1 zoning regulations removes the restrictions on the number of food establishments allowed in the Broadway Commercial area. This change would remove all limits on the type and location of food establishments in the Broadway Commercial Area by eliminating C.S. 25.30.070 in its entirety. Food establishments would then be allowed with approval of a Conditional Use Permit at any location within the District. Further, an amendment eliminating the Conditional Use Permit requirement (C.S. 25.30.065(b)(2)) for health service uses above the ground floor in the Broadway Commercial District, therefore permitting such uses by right above the first floor, is included in the proposed ordinance. Health services would continue to be prohibited on the ground floor. In all other C-1 zoned areas, health services would continue to require a Conditional Use Permit for all locations. Parking Standards: The Zoning Ordinance imposes different parking requirements for each land use, so a change in land use could possibly be subject to an additional parking requirement (for example, retail stores require 1 space for each 400 sq. ft. of gross floor area, while bars and 2 , Broadway Zoning Amendments February 2, 2015 restaurants require 1 space for each 200 sq. ft. of gross floor area.). Whether or not a particular property would be subject to an additional parking requirement would depend on the specific uses and characteristics of the property. Staff has worked with the parking and traffic consultant for the General Plan update to allow a Broadway Parking study to be one of the earlier tasks in the work program for that project. One of the goals of the study would be to research the parking requirements that other cities have for restaurant uses to determine if a lesser standard may be found that can reduce or eliminate the instances in which parking variances must be sought for new food establishment locations in the Broadway Commercial District. In the meantime, applicants seeking approval of a conditional use permit for a new food establishment may request variances from the parking standards on a case-by-case basis, possibly by demonstrating that the parking demand would be less than what the code currently requires. Such instances would be based upon the specific characteristics of the business enterprise for which relief is sought. Planning Commission Action: The Planning Commission considered the proposed amendments at its regular meeting on January 12, 2015 (minutes attached). The Commission noted that they believe that this amendment is a first step, and though it will not necessarily be the sole action needed to reinvigorate Broadway, it is a good first step. They noted that lifting the restaurant restrictions will help bring people to Broadway, which would be beneficial. Following conclusion of the public hearing, the Commission adopted a resolution recommending approval of the amendments to the City Council (see attached resolution). FISCAL IMPACT None.

Ceyofauriingame Paget Printatl on }/20/20}5 Planning Commission Meeting Minutes January 12, 2015 Public Comments: Dave Simpson, Broadway property owner Retail sales in Redwood City have declined due to the existence of new restaurants within the downtown area. This could happen on Broadway. His business services the restaurant industry. Understands the restaurant industry. All restaurants want to be full at the same time; can create traffic problems. (Commissioner - requested clarification that the retail uses do not do as well given the large number of restaurants.) Noted that most of them do not exist anymore; there is very little retail remaining. Betty Wolf, resident on Laguna AN for making Broadway more vibrant, but it will never be like Burlingame Avenue. Is concerned with Parking if more restaurants are allowed. A lot of people who own businesses do not live in the neighborhood. Notice a lot of people parking in the adjacent neighborhood due to the inadequate parking. More restaurants may tax the existing sewer system in the area. Restaurants need to convey to their people where to park. Gunnell Bercholz, resident on Laguna: Near her property people can park all night. Parking is not monitored by the police. People have been known to sleep in their cars. More restaurants will exacerbate the rat infestation problem in the area. Restaurant people have too much garbage outside; it is overflowing and creates a rat problem. Ann Hinkle, owner ofEachbeem: Is a healthcare provider. Is delighted to see the amendment ]filing the requirement for a conditional use permit for health services on the second floor. Former City Planner Indicated that healthcare businesses would occupy parking for a longer period of fire than other forms of businesses. Will increase exposure of other retail businesses on Broadway. The conditional use permit application fee caused another individual that wanted to open such a business to be driven away. John Kevranian, Chairperson of the Broadway Business Improvement District Hears some of the concerns regarding parking and the potential loss of fetafl. There are currently retail vacancies on Broadway mora restaurants will bring more foot baffc to the area. The restaurant moratorium creates a commodity; there is no flexibility in terns of moving a restaurant to another pmperty. Several of the parking lots in the area have long-term parking; some of these could be converted to shorter term pecking. Employees could be directed to park at more remote lots within the area. If neighbors have concerns regarding parking on the residential streets, then the Traffic, Safety and Parking Commission can be approached to impose restrictions that may alleviate the observed problems. Garble Bezdjfan, 1199 Broadway- Feels roadwayFeels it is fair to contact other restaurant owners on Broadway to We if they want more restaurants In the area; the existing operators will not want more restaurants. Need different types of businesses that can create more foot traffic. With respect to the survey, noted that a survey was completed a number of years ago; noted the results of that survey. Feels the City's survey from 2014 was not accurate. Feels that the staff is running the City, should be the City Council. How would someone go fo a healthcare business on the second floor l there is no elevator, Feels he has been discriminated against for the Past fourteen years, that leads for new tenants are sent elsewhere. Ross Bruce, AVR Realty: ciiy OreurIMgame Pegei Printed on 9/20/5095 Planning Commission Meeting Minutes January 12, 2015 Have attempted to nurture retail in the district by restricting certain business types on Broadway, but it has not been successful even with current restrictions. Feels that allowing the market to flex as the culture changes 17101/1191p to fill the vacancies on Broadway. Wants to sop fewer vacancies. Unidentified Broadway business owner. There are four vacancies on the block where his business Is located. Disagrees with staffs representation of the vacancy rate. Feels that the Broadway District has been left behind and more attention has been paid to Downtown Burlingame. The Broadway interchange construction will disrupt the area for the next few years. There is inadequate padding; with more restaurants this will be worsened and people will go elsewhere. Chair Bandrapalli dosed the public hearing. Commission Discussion: > How many properties are within the District, what is the vacancy rate? (BarbeNMeeksr - roughly 44 individual properties. There is a 1% vacancy rate which represents four tenant spaces.) > Referenced the changing retail landscape, other options for such businesses. Can't conclude necessarily that restaurants are the culprit in the downturn of retail on the street > Noted that he is frequently asked where employers can send their employees for meals. > Is supportive of anything that can be done to invigorate the district. > Is aware that there can be parking problems in the area. > Has not perceived any preconceptions on the part of staff in the survey or the staff report > There may be other means of addressing the parking issues. > There are also means of addressing the trash issues that have been raised. > t.iftfng the restitution can allow the district to reach a state of equilibrium. > There will be more people looking for places to eat as the Bayfront becomes more developed. > May not be the silver bullet, but worth achance. There may need to be adjustments made to other uses in the area as well. > Doesnt believe the proposed amendments will solve the problem, but likely will not make it worse. > Broadway is not an easy place to get to, packing is problematic. > If you provide businesses that people want, patrons will come, if you don't they won't. > Not having parking isn't ft worse thing in the world. > Doesn't feel that this is a complicated problem. Inves0nents made in properties (e.g. restaurants) that need some work could go to help invigorate the district. > The Broadway merchants need to look at their businesses to ensure that businesses that are there are vibrant. > Hears concerns regarding the number of nail salons on Broadway. > Is imperative upon each landlord to consider the businesses that they bring in to the district > The individuals expressing reservations cause him pause. Should more research be done? > Has seen the dramatic changes In Redwood City; it is largely a function of the vitality that the restaurants bring to the area. > Feels that the changes have been directed from the community through the elected body. > A couple of the vacancies have been present for some time. Hard to believe that restaurants would push out retail uses. > Other issues raised regarding the trash, parking problems and people sleeping in the cars are issues that will continue to exist and must be addressed. > Has noticed that amongst the restaurants on Broadway, many am not open full time. Commissioner Sargent made a motion, seconded by Chair Bandrapalli, to recommend to the City Council, adoption of an ordinance eliminating the limitation on the number of food establishments within the Broadway Commercial District while retaining the requirement for a conditional use permit for such uses, and eliminating the requirement for a conditional use permit for health service uses above the first floor within the District.

The zoning of the business location is Burlingame Avenue Commercial (BAC). Within the BAC zone the retail sale of alcoholic beverages for off-site consumption with ancillary wine -tasting is a permitted use; no discretionary land -use entitlements are required as part of this request. 1 PCN for Del Oliva —1440 Burlingame Avenue DISCUSSION February 2, 2015 Finding of Public Convenience and Necessity: Pursuant to Section 23958.4 of the California Business and Professions Code, in instances where the number of licenses for alcohol sales within a census tract exceeds the maximum number allowed within that tract as set by the ABC (constituting an "overconcentration"), a "finding of public convenience and necessity' is required of the local jurisdiction before the ABC will consider the license request. Del Oliva Incorporated's business at 1440 Burlingame Avenue is situated within Census Tract 6055; within this census tract the maximum number of licenses allowed by ABC is eight. Currently, 48 on -sale licenses and five off -sale licenses exist within the census tract. Because the number of licenses within the census tract exceeds the maximum permitted by ABC, the agency's rules require the applicant to seek a "finding of public convenience and necessity' from the City before the agency will complete processing of the license transfer. Adoption of a finding of public convenience and necessity by the City is, in essence, a determination that based upon analysis by the City, transfer of the licenses is necessary to ensure that adequate opportunities exist for the public to purchase alcohol products, and to weigh-in on whether or not the public health, safety and welfare are potentially affected by the issuance of additional licenses beyond the ABC's threshold. Police Department Review: The Burlingame Police Department has reviewed Del Oliva Incorporated's request for approval of the ABC licenses. The findings of this review are attached to this report (see memorandum from Police Chief Eric Wollman, dated November 5, 2014). To summarize, the Department supports a finding of "public convenience and necessity" based, in part, upon the following findings: • Del Oliva has operated in this area for over four years with no police related calls for service; • Their on-site consumption will be limited to a small, separate section of their retail space and limited to wine tasting only; • Their off-site sales will be limited to gift baskets that include a bottle(s) of wine, • Del' Oliva is located in the Downtown Burlingame Business District with no parks, schools, or residential housing in the area. Though the Police Department supports a finding of public convenience and necessity; Chief Wollman recommends that the following conditions be forwarded to the ABC for its consideration prior to issuance of the license: 1. Sales, service, and consumption of alcoholic beverages shall be permitted only between the hours of 10:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m Monday through Saturday, and 11:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. on Sundays. 2 PCN for Del Oliva —1440 Burlingame Avenue February Z 2015 2. No noise shall be audible beyond the area under the control of the licensee(s) as defined on the ABC -257. 3. The petitioner shall be responsible for maintaining free of litter the area adjacent to the premises over which they have control. 4. Graffiti shall be removed from the premises and all parking lots under the control of the licensee within seventy-two (72) hours of application. If the graffiti occurs on a Friday or weekend day, or on a holiday, the licensee shall remove the graffiti within seventy-two (72) hours following the beginning of the next weekday. 5. The interior lighting maintained therein shall be sufficient to make easily discernible the appearance and conduct of all persons and patrons in that portion of the premises where alcoholic beverages are sold, served, delivered or consumed. 6. The exterior of the premises shall be equipped with lighting of sufficient power to illuminate and make easily discernible the appearance and conduct of all persons on or about the premises. Additionally, the position of such lighting shall not disturb the normal privacy and use of any neighboring residences. Loitering (loitering is defined as "to stand idly about; linger aimlessly without lawful business") is prohibited on any sidewalks or property adjacent to the licensed premises under the control of the licensee as depicted on the ABC -257. No person under the age of 21 shall sell or deliver alcoholic beverages. 9. The sale of distilled spirits in sizes smaller than 200 ml is strictly prohibited. 10. No malt beverage shall be sold with an alcoholic content great than 5.7% by volume or in quantities of 16 oz. or greater. 11. No wine shall be sold with an alcoholic content of great than 15% by volume except for "Dinner Wines" which have been aged two years or more and maintained in corded bottles. 12. Wine shall not be sold in bottles or containers smaller than 750 ml. 13. Petitioner shall not make structural changes in the premises interior without prior written approval from the Department. FISCAL IMPACT None. 3 PCN for Del Oliva —1440 Burlingame Avenue Attachments: Resolution Request for PCN Police Department Review of PCN Request February 2, 2015 RESOLUTION NO.

Terry Nagel, Mayor I, Mary Ellen Kearney, Clerk of the City of Burlingame, hereby certify that the foregoing Resolution was duly and regularly introduced and adopted at a regular meeting of the Burlingame City Council held on the 2nd day of February, 2015, by the following vote: AYES: Councilmembers: NOES: Councilmembers: ABSENT: Councilmembers: Q Mary Ellen Kearney, City Clerk Ruben Hurin-Senior Planner Community Development Department Planning Department City of Burlingame 501 Primrose Road Burlingame, CA 94010-3997 RECEIVED ,C1' 2 3 2014 CITY OF BURLINGAME CDL-''LANNING 01V RE: Request for Determination of Public Convenience & Necessity for Type 20 and Type 42 ABC Licenses for "De Oliva" @1440 Burlingame Avenue, Burlingame. CA 94010 Dear Mr. Hurin, My husband, Mohammad Reza Sohirad, and I, Seyedeh Homa Ijadi, are the owners of De Oliva store at the above address, We are in the process of filling out an ABC application for the sales and service of Beer & Wine at our above listed store. The Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control will require from the City of Burlingame to make a determination of Public Convenience & Necessity for the premises, under Sec. 23958.4 of the Business & Profession Code, before they can approve our application. We are respectfully requesting that the City of Burlingame after reviewing our application, determine that a type 42 and a type 20 license at our store will serve Public Convenience and Necessity. The type 42 License is an On Sale Beer & Wine Public Premises License, (21 & Over only) and the type 20 License is an Off Sale Beer & Wine License for purchases to take away from the premises. Please see below the way we wish to utilize these licenses and how they will help to improve our business operation. Type 42 License: On Sale Privilege of Beer & Wine, would allow us to utilize the back room of our store as a designated area for wine tastings (see diagram). This area would be posted for 21 and over only as required by State Law and would be for our customers who wish to sample various, high end wines that we wish to carry. The customers would then be able to make an informed determination of wines they wish to add to their gift baskets or for purchases to be made and enjoyed at home. This experience will allow our customer to sample our fine wine selection and to make a decision based on their personal taste and experience prior to selecting wines they wish to purchase. Type 20 License: Off -Sale Beer & Wine License, which permits the sale of beverages to be sold for consumption away from the premises. This license would allow the customer to then purchase the wines they have selected to utilize for their enjoyment at their homes, gift baskets or gifts to friends. We would request this license so that we can then have the required license to sell the wine purchased as gifts or in gift baskets made to order per the request of our customer. We have been owner operators of our store since 2010 and have been so grateful to be part of the City of Burlingame and the community. Our location, is on the main downtown shopping district of Burlingame Avenue and is located next to numerous shops and restaurants. Our business is very unique to the avenue as we are a specialty type store. We are a small family operated business and also work full time at our store. Our store offers the freshest organic olive oils, balsamic vinegar and related food items to compliment the wonderful gift baskets and purchases made by our customers. We specialize in bringing in and providing the freshest product to our customers and have received praise for our integrity of product and service to our community. We have enjoyed being part of this community and are attempting to upgrade our business by providing more products and items so that we will increase our customer base. Although the addition of these licenses will be incidental to the overall business that we now have, we feel the approval of the above licenses for our store will help us to be more financially competitive with other like type stores in the community. In addition, our customers frequently ask to add special wines to their gift baskets or to compliment their meals at home. We feel that these improvements will increase our business which will in turn be financially beneficial to us, and to the city by the taxes we now pay and the increased anticipated revenue. Our business has received such positive reviews from our customer base and also from online reviews. We feel that the approval and issuance of the two requested licenses will not be detrimental to the health and welfare of our surrounding neighbors. The City of Burlingame does not maintain crime statistics, however, we feel confident that the type of business operation that we run will not add or increase police activity. We will continue to be good neighbors and have always maintained a positive impact on our surrounding neighbors. Our hours of operation and our family type business will continue to be an asset to the community. In conclusion, we are very responsible business owners and know that we will be more financially secure in our business by the addition of the type 42 and type 20 licenses. This will help to increase the profits for our business and in turn provide a much requested service to our customer base. We understand the Rules & Regulations of the Alcoholic Beverage Control and we would like the City to know that we will attend the ABC LEAD Training Class that is offered by the ABC. This is not a mandatory class, but we feel that it is very important to know the laws regarding the sale and service of alcoholic beverages, checking of ID's, and therefore feel we must attend. Based on all of the above, we feel that we are in compliance and fall within the pervue of Sec 23958.4 of the Business & Profession Code. We hope that the City of Burlingames findings will be favorable so that the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control will also approve issuance of the applied for licenses. Please see the attached diagrams that will indicate the area that would be utilized for the type 42 and type 20 licenses, If you have further questions or need further documents, please do not hesitate to call me, I can be reached at (408) 644-5927.

Denied -section 23790 of the Business and Professions Code says that ABCmay not issue a retail license contrary to a valid zoning ordnance. This form will help us determine whether your proposed business is properly zoned for alcoholic beverage sales. •A conditional use permit (CUP) (Item 11) is a special zoning permit granted after an individual review of proposed land -use has been made. CUP's are used in situations where the proposed use may create hardships or hazards to neighbors and other community members who are likely to be affected by the proposed use. The ABC district office will not make a final recommendation on your license application until after the local CUP review process has been completed. If the local government denies the CUP, ABC must deny your license application. 23790. Zoning ordinances. No retail license shall be issued for any premises which are located in any territory where the exercise of the rights and privileges conferred by the license is contrary to a valid zoning ordinance of any INFORMA Premises which had been used in the exercise of those rights and privileges at a time prior to the effective date of the zoning ordinance may continue operation under the following conditions: (a) The premises retain the same type of retail liquor license within a license classification. (b) The licensed premises are operated continuously without substantial change in mode or character of operation. For purposes of this subdivision, a break in continuous operation does not include: (1) A closure for not more than 30 days for purposes of repair, if that repair does not change the nature of the licensed premises and does not increase the square footage of the business used for the sale of alcoholic beverages. (2)'fhe closure for restoration of premises rendered totally or partially inaccessible by an act of God or a toxic accident, if the restoration does not increase the square footage of the business used for the sale of alcoholic beverages. BURuNGAME POLICE DEPARTMENT Memorandum To: William Meeker, Community Development Director From: Eric Wollman, Police Chief Subject: Determination of Public Convenience or Necessity for 1440 Burlingame Ave (Del' Oliva) Date: November 5, 2014 Del' Oliva, a small, independently run, specialty store that sells fresh organic olive oils, balsamic vinegar, and related food items, requests approval of a Finding of Public Convenience and Necessity (FOPCN) to allow on-site consumption and off-site sales of beer and wine (License Type 42 and 20). The Alcohol Beverage Control Board (ABC) enforces the licensing of alcoholic retailers regulated by State Law under Section 23958 of the Business and Professional Code. ABC will deny any application if issuance of the license will create a law enforcement problem or if issuance will result in or add to an undue concentration of licenses. Del' Oliva is currently located in Census Tract #6055, which roughly consists of downtown Burlingame and its surrounding area. There are currently 53 total licenses in this Census Tract (48 on -sale licenses and 5 off -sale licenses). The phrase "public convenience and necessity" is not defined in either the Alcohol Beverage Control Act provisions of the State Business and Professions Code or in the ABC guidelines. Other than the number and location of licensed alcohol premises, the Burlingame Police Department used the following factors to determine the level of support for a finding of "public convenience and necessity": Del' Oliva has operated in this area for over 4 years with no police related calls for service; Their on-site consumption will be limited to a small, separate section of their retail space and limited to wine tasting only; Their off-site sales will be limited to gift baskets which include a bottle(s) of wine; Del' Oliva is located in the Downtown Burlingame Business District with no parks, schools, or residential housing in the area. BPD's conclusion is as follows: Del' Oliva, is a small, independently run, specialty store that sells fresh organic olive oils, balsamic vinegar, and related food items. They have provided this service to the community for over 4 years without any negative impact on the community. Their on-site consumption will be limited to a small, separate section of their retail space and limited to wine tasting only. Their off-site sales will be limited to the sale of gift baskets which include a bottle or bottles of wine. It does not appear as if their request will create a law enforcement problem in that area. The police department has no reason to deny the request; however, we recommend that any approval of their transfer request be subject to the following conditions: Sales, service, and consumption of alcoholic beverages shall be permitted only between the hours of 10:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m Monday through Saturday, and 11:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. on Sundays. No noise shall be audible beyond the area under the control of the licensee(s) as defined on the ABC -257. The petitioner shall be responsible for maintaining free of litter the area adjacent to the premises over which they have control. Graffiti shall be removed from the premises and all parking lots under the control of the licensee within seventy-two (72) hours of application. If the graffiti occurs on a Friday or weekend day, or on a holiday, the licensee shall remove the graffiti within seventy-two (72) hours following the beginning of the next weekday. The interior lighting maintained therein shall be sufficient to make easily discernible the appearance and conduct of all persons and patrons in that portion of the premises where alcoholic beverages are sold, served, delivered or consumed. The exterior of the premises shall be equipped with lighting of sufficient power to illuminate and make easily discernible the appearance and conduct of all persons on or about the premises. Additionally, the position of such lighting shall not disturb the normal privacy and use of any neighboring residences. Loitering (loitering is defined as "to stand idly about; linger aimlessly without lawful business") is prohibited on any sidewalks or property adjacent to the licensed premises under the control of the licensee as depicted on the ABC -257. No person under the age of 21 shall sell or deliver alcoholic beverages. The sale of distilled spirits in sizes smaller than 200 ml is strictly prohibited. No malt beverage shall be sold with an alcoholic content great than 5.7% by volume or in quantities of 16 oz. or greater. No wine shall be sold with an alcoholic content of great than 15% by volume except for "Dinner Wines" which have been aged two years or more and maintained in corded bottles. Wine shall not be sold in bottles or containers smaller than 750 ml. Petitioner shall not make structural changes in the premises interior without prior written approval from the Department.

Further, it.should consider the potential work program items arising from the community input and provide further direction as appropriate. BACKGROUND On October 18, 2014, the City held a very successful community meeting to discuss issues related to the vitality of the Broadway Commercial District. Comments received during the October 18, 2014 meeting, as well as from the nearly 1,200 survey respondents, have been reviewed and analyzed, and may be used to inform development of work programs intended to enhance the District. Attached to this report are the following items: • Summary of multiple-choice survey responses to each question contained within the on- line survey Summary of open-ended question responses from the survey • A condensed and categorized summary prepared by staff intended to reflect the participants' suggestions via the survey and the discussions at the community meeting The remainder of this report will provide a discussion of the comments received from the two venues along with staff's suggestions for work program items and suggested implementation timing for each item. DISCUSSION The survey responses and public input received at the October 18, 2014 community meeting may be generally categorized into each of the following areas: 1 , Broadway Community Meeting Summary • Land -Use Mix • Parking • Transportation • Streetscape • Public Amenities February 2, 2015 From each of the above categories, staff further condensed the comments into more generalized descriptions of potential work program items. For each work program item, a responsible party has been identified, and a suggested implementation timeframe has been stated. In instances where work has already commenced regarding a particular item, a "status" is noted; otherwise there is a description of potential tasks that may be undertaken. 1. Lift the Restaurant Cap to Allow for More Restaurants Responsible Party: City of Burlingame Timing forlmplementation: Underway Eliminate Restaurant Limitation: On December 1, 2014, the City Council provided direction to staff to proceed with amendments to the zoning ordinance, lifting the cap on the number of food establishments allowed within the Broadway Commercial District. A companion item, elimination of the conditional use permit requirement for second -floor health service uses, was also authorized by the Council. At its meeting of January 12, 2015, the Planning Commission recommended approval of both of the proposed amendments. The City Council is scheduled to introduce an ordinance making the changes on February 2, 2015. If introduced on that date, the ordinance will be scheduled for adoption on February 17, 2015. 2.

Work on the update is anticipated to begin within the first quarter of 2015 and will likely take a total of two to three years to complete, including adoption of new zoning regulations. Given the interest in enhancing the vitality of the Broadway Commercial District, staff intends to work with the general plan consultant to ensure robust public outreach and exchange of ideas relative to the future direction for the Broadway District. 2 Broadway Community Meeting Summary February 2, 2015 3. Explore Approaches to Encourage Better Maintenance of Commercial Buildings within the Broadway Commercial District Responsible Parties: City of Burlingame, Broadway Business Community Timing for Implementation: Ongoing • Property Owner/Tenant Cost Sharing: A frequent concern raised at the community meeting and in comments received via the on-line survey was that property and business owners needed to invest more time and money into maintenance of their tenant spaces. Owners of commercial properties within the Broadway District are encouraged to share the cost of property maintenance and major tenant improvements in order to enhance the aesthetic appearance of their properties. • City -Based Incentives: City staff and the City Council's Economic Development Subcommittee are currently exploring the possibility of creating a City -based loan program that could be made available on an annual basis to serve as a source for partial funding for tenant fagade improvements. Initial thoughts are that a pilot program could be made available to owners and tenants of properties within the Broadway Commercial District. Funding for such a program will be a part of the discussion of the Fiscal Year 2015-2016 Budget. 4. Explore Partnerships for Promotion of the Broadway Business Community Responsible Parties: City of Burlingame, Broadway Business Community, Chamber of Commerce Timing for -Implementation: Ongoing • Broadway Business Community Promotions: The Broadway business community should be encouraged to explore making better use of social media platforms and partnerships with the Chamber of Commerce to develop approaches for promoting the unique character and business mix of the Broadway Commercial District.

The business community membership may also wish to forge relationships with the hoteliers in the City to identify ways to encourage hotel patrons to visit the Broadway Commercial District. • City Assistance to the Broadway Business Community: The City's Economic Development Specialist has begun working with the membership of the Broadway Business Community to better serve as a City -based resource. He has created a comprehensive listing of all businesses within the district as well as vacancies that can be used to assist in directing new businesses into the area. Further, he has offered to become a regular attendee at meetings of the membership of the Broadway Business Community.

City staff is therefore encouraged to work cooperatively with the Broadway Business Community to identify methods of improving directional signage to parking lots. (As City Resources Permit) • Review and Consider Revising Parking Lot Time Limits: Concern was expressed by the community that parking time limits do not deter employees from parking in nearby lots and also discourage business patrons from lingering within the district to continue shopping. City staff is encouraged to work collaboratively with the Broadway Business Community to strategize ways to discourage employees from parking within the core area of the district, and to encourage shoppers to stay within the area for longer periods of time. (As City Resources Permit) • Explore the Possibility of Constructing a Public Parking Structure: During the upcoming general plan update, an evaluation of the use mix within the Broadway Commercial District will occur. Further evaluation of the existing parking supply as well as an assessment of future parking needs will be explored.

The City may assist in identifying potential funding sources for such a service.

They were widened some years back and are fine. Each merchant should keep 10/18/2014 8:42 PM the sidewalk in front of their property clean. Keep the parking the same. Keep the current atmosphere. It do not want it to be a Burlingame Avenue atmosphere. 66 Location Less crowded than Burlingame avenue Some unique restaurants and shops 10/18/2014 7:18 PM 67 feels like its for locals which is nice 10/1812014 5:53 PM 68 1. small business owners (i.e. Le Croissant Cafe, Magdaluna, etc.) 2. nonprofit presence (Pick of the Litter, 10118/2014 5:34 PM Goodwill) 3. community -oriented environments (cafes: II Piccolo, Le Croissant, Starbucks, etc.) 69 Wonderful restaurants. 10/18/2014 4:59 PM 70 Small town feel 10/18120144:17 PM 71 Diagonal parking is the best and fastest for cars to get in and out. I like this about Broadway. The post office is a 10118/2014 2:52 PM big help when you have multiple things to do. I like the small shops and the drugstore is great. 72 restaurants that can compete with Burlingame Ave 10/18/2014 2:42 PM 73 Please don't make traffic flow from 101 into the area any worse. 10/18/2014 1:01 PM 74 Banking facilities, including ATMs Restaurants Post Office 1 011 812 01 4 12:57 PM 75 - Easy, fnendly area to navigate Local small businesses—few big box stores (I really like Walgreens, here, 1 011 8/2014 12:40 PM however) 30 minute parking meters—Burlingame is horrible—I go to San MateoBway rather than pay BGS stupid 15 minute rates—can't find parking there anyway—they really screwed up parking—a mess. 76 The Broadway arch sign 10118/201412:39 PM 77 The Mom & Pop feeling stores are more Interesting than big commercial stores 10/18/2014 10:48 AM 78 Easy to visit; Personnel are all friendly; Not as precious as B -game Ave. 10118/2014 10:27 AM 79 - We want to keep it a little quieter than Burlingame Ave. A lot of people from Broadway Ave neighborhoods will 1 011 81201 4 10:10 AM walk to this street. Unfortunately this is not an option for me as I need ADA parking and convenience. This is a - street many people take to get onto 101 or over to Bayside. If it gets too congested people will tum away from Broadway. 80 groceries, gift shop (Pot Pourri), drug store, post office - 1 011 812 01 4 10 04 AM 81 1) nice local businesses- wine, coffee, italian restaurant, antique shop, natural food store (weimax, i1 piccolo, 10/18/2014 9:51 AM restaurant rocca, Wambah, earthbeam) 2) neighborhood feel- a very walkable destination 3) 1 think the parking overall is relative adequate- I usually have not much problem finding a spot. not as bad as Burlingame ave. 82 Its home town charm - not a shopping mall, which seems to be the goal of bur ingame ave more and more (but 1 10/18/2014 9:42 AM use BA quite a lot due to convenience) 83 Has a neighborly feel. Does not have high end chains (like the Ave.) Seems to be trying to hold onto the small 10/18/2014 9:22 AM town history of the street. 84 Keep individual merchants and keep the chain stores out. That is what Burlingame Ave has become, we have 10/18/2014 9:21 AM lost the local community feel. 85 It still has local stores like Weimax, Potpouud, all that glitters, Prestons. 10/18/2014 9:20 AM 86 Restaurants Loral awned business Neighborhood feel 10/18/2014 8:43 AM 87 Good tree scope. 10/18/2014 8:05 AM 88 small independent retail business great variety of places to eat- everything from take-out to fine dining casual. 10/18/2014 8:04 AM warn friendly atmosphere 89 Mom & Pop businesses, Broadway Cheer, general friendliness 10/18/2014 7:57 AM 3/40 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 90 Small town feel to the street Adequate parking I park once and walk back and forth to do all of my errands. 10118/2014 7:27 AM Availability of shops that I frequent and need 91 Unique variety of stores 10/18/20147:20 AM 92 Specialty, upscale gift shops like Pot Poume; fun stores like All that Glitters. Healthy food like qua Seraw Seraw 10/17/2014 11:42 PM and the markets, and Walgreens and the Irish Bar and Broadway Grill and breakfast shops and salons. And the cobbler and antique store! It's really all good. 93 1) We love that Broadway is comprised of family run businesses (and not big chain stores like Burlingame 10/17/2014 11:31 PM Avenue). 2) My family especially loves and supports Earthbeam - they do a beautiful job at landscaping their street corner... this should serve as an example of how beautiful the street could look if this was copied down the entire Broadway Avenue. 94 Store Front, Parking, Stores Stand out promotion advertising 10/17/2014 10:56 PM 95 No "big box" stores.

Starbucks and subway were a nice 10/16/2014 5:10 PM addition and some of the restaurants are pretty decent. Preston's and Walgreens are also pretty decent.

Most people I see on Burlingame Avenue are not from Burlingame - it's more of a consumer entertainment center. I don't want to see Broadway try to compete with that. We don't need it. Broadway has a more small-town feel. 154 The variety of restaurants, a great shop named Pot Pouri, keep large franchise stores out. 10/16/2014 4:04 PM _ 155 x 10/16/2014 3:58 PM 156 99 10/16/2014 3:48 PM 157 1 see walk ability and a variety of stores and it's VERY walkable and dog friendly .I love it just the way it is .

I also love that it has so many "mom and pop", locally -owned businesses where the owners and staff often know their customers and are friendly toward them, while the restaurants and stores are actually affordable or reasonably priced—which is more than can be said for Burlingame Avenue (which is not only generally more expensive to eat or shop, but has more chain stores and restaurants in comparison). I also like that its not just catered toward any one group (is those who are wealthy and/or have small kids, again as is oftentimes the case with Burlingame Avenue), but appeals to and is affordable to people of all income brackets and ages. 188 Variety of stores that are not corporate.

However, that's a mixed blessing. Broadway is not as dynamic as Burlingame 9/28/201411:00 PM Avenue, and that small-town feel might go away If it were. The public parking lots one block over. These could use more signage an Broadway to let people know they're there. The one way streets coming in and out work well. 358 - Local businesses 928/2014 10:03 PM 359 1) the Boa Thong Thai restaurant, 2) Rocca, 3) Wells Fargo Bank, Post Office, 9/282014 9:43 PM 360 - Locally owned restaurants/shops Cleanliness 9/2812014 8:46 PM 361 The small town feel.

I enjoy walking to the restaurants and having a choice of places to eat, both casual and fancier dining. 12/40 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 13/40 364 The community nature of the street. When we moved to Burlingame, Burlingame Avenue was the place for 9/28/2014 11:44 AM outsiders to shop and Broadway was for the citizens. The business people and neighbors are friendly and the community nature is strong. Broadway should be a place where Burlingame citizens came to shop. 365 1 love the tree lights.

Makes it unique from Burlingame Ave. That said, they look 9/26/2014 10:54 AM really run down. 410 1 like the "mom and pop" vibe compared to buringame avenue I like that it is usually somewhat busy but not 9/26/2014 10:38 AM overly croweded 411 n/a 9/26/201410:38 AM 412 Mom and pop stores, restaurants, post office ... love the post office being there 9126/2014 9:10 AM 413 We're big fans of Weimax, the wine store ... also Earthbeam foods ... and the post office on Capuchino is handy... 9/26/2014 8:59 AM 414 Variety Neighborhood feeling Good prices 9/26/20148:31 AM 415 The variety of restaurants (different ethnic foods, casual vs formal, etc.).

Lack of large national chain stores. Variety type of the businesses. 9/25/2014 9:51 PM 433 1 don't see a lot of strengths of the Broadway Commercial District. It pales in comparison to Burlingame Avenue. 9/25/2014 9'45 PM The restaurants are average at best (except for Magdaluna (Mexican) and Taste). The shopping is horrible. 434 Has tons of potential yet is completely neglected. 9/25/2014 9:42 PM 435 Walgreens (convenient) 9/25/2014 9:36 PM 436 Keep small businesses thriving, small town ambience and charts. Stop commercializing our lovely town! Miss the 9/25/2014 9:29 PM hardware store and pharmacy. Love the friendly small shop where you can name the owners and help by their first names and they return in kind. 437 walking distance to a lot of residential areas 9/25/2014 9:29 PM 438 1. Easy to park compared to Burlingame Ave 2. Magdaluna 3. Starbucks 9/25/2014 9:25 PM 439 Location Trees & sidewalks give it a nice feel, unfortunately offset by dated / not well maintained buildings and 9/25/2014 9:03 PM storefronts. 440 Like the old-time, unique venues like II Piccolo, Village Host, and PReston's. This is what Burlingame is all about. 9/25/2014 8:57 PM 441 (1) A variety of locally -owned stores and restaurants (few chains, which is refreshing) (2) The organic produce 9/25/2014 8:54 PM market (3) Destination stops, e.g. Preston's, the Village Host, the amazing wine +liquor store whose name is escaping me at the moment, Broadway Grill for good food and music 442 Nice, convenient location. Some good restaurants/coffee shops, two nice markets. 9/25/2014 8:52 PM 443 The health food store Juice bar/cafe New pilates studio 9/25/2014 8:49 PM 444 Charts and feeling of a small town downtown. easily walkable from several neighborhoods. 9,125/2014 8:46 PM 445 1 like that is is molre of a small town feel with smaller mom and pop type places 9/25/2014 8:38 PM 446 coffee shops restaurants 9.'2512014 8:33 PM 447 The basic Family friendly restaurants 9/25/2014 8:30 PM 448 Quaintness, accessibility, Preston's 9/25/2014 8:29 PM 449 Less "corporate" than Burlingame Ave. Kind of a small town feel. Keep the illuminated BURLINGAME street sign. 9/25/2014 8:08 PM 450 1) Quality Small/Independent Operations (Earthbeam; Broadway Farmers Market; Preston's; Taste In Med; 9/25/2014 8:07 PM Magda Luna Cafe; and Nail Shops ) 2) Good Anchor Businesses (Walgreens & Starbucks) 3) Not as Commercialized as Burlingame Ave (which is more akin to an open air shopping mall) 451 Neighborhood feeling without many restaurant chains 9/25/2014 8:07 PM 452 - mom and pop feel to it (less trendy and snotty than Burlingame Ave) - local vendors/business owners - love 9/25/2014 8:06 PM having the small grocery options (farmers market and health food store) 453 It's convenient but needs more places to eat and a major facelift to pull it out if the 70's 9/25/2014 7:51 PM 454 1 love the charm on Broadway and want to see that stay. Burlingame Ave is always busy, hard to park but great 9/25/2014 7:49 PM shopping, eating and drinks. Broadway needs more fun good restaurants, maybe a wine bar, better shopping. Starbucks, el piccolo cafe, Magdalena, Broadway grill, sushi are great but it needs more. Something to get people excited and a destination. There's a Pilates studio going up and its about time something great and vibrant comes to broadway. That will be great and the city should help them out because they could be the first step in turning the street around for the better. I wouldn't suggest office or medical on the street, it takes away from bringing locals and visitors from enjoying time on Broadway. Get a couple fun, slightly trendy restaurants, bar or wine bars, maybe a great boutique shop and you will see that people will come. 15/40 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 455 Coffee Shops, Walgreens, Preston's 9/25/2014 7:40 PM 456 Love some of the restaurants, convenient grocery store like burlungame farmers market and Walgreens. 9/2512014 7:39 PM 457 Banks Restaurants Drugstore 9/25/20147:24 PM 458 This corridor needs to be revitalized. Maybe converting into commercial office space might do the trick. It has the 9/25/2014 7:15 PM same feel as California Ave. in Palo Alto - the less attractive version of University Ave. But now, California Ave. is being revitalized helped by nearby office spaces that need places to dine. So maybe create the demand for other businesses to support the need is a solution. 459 Lack of many chain stores Meters a better value than downtown Options to buy grocery items 9/25/2014 7:13 PM 460 More restaurants and would love to have it be somewhat more commercialized like burlingame ave but retaining 9/25/2014 7:11 PM all of the historical buildings and some of the independent shops. 461 Small town feel _ 9/2512014707 PM 462 Location mom and pop stores coffee shops 9/25/2014 6:55 PM 463 There really isn't anything that great that needs to be maintained. 9,125/2014 6:45 Plot 464 Small town feel.

Downtown San Francisco organizes around neighborhoods, for 9/25/2014 2:50 PM people within walking distance. A place to get some food supplies, cut hair, meet for coffee, etc. Broadway should offer that for us — a commercial gathering point within 15-20 minute walk. 492 Local atmosphere, which unique establishments. 9/25/2014 2:42 PAA 493 It's quite close to our house and we like eating at Magdaluna or Taste of the Mediterranean.

Don't make it into another Burlingame Avenue. 522 -homely feel (unlike Bgame Ave chains) -small local businesses -friendly vibe 9/2512014 9:46 AM 523 1 cannot even think of three strengths, I live by Burlingame Ave and Broadway is completely dilapidated and 925/2014 9:36 AM ignored in comparison. 524 1- sense of character 2- great location (not changeable, I understand, but it really has the opportunity to capitalize 9/252014 9:35 AM on its location!) 3- 525 1) Small, diverse, independent ethnic restaurants, health food store, and coffee shops 2) neighborhood feel 3) 9/25/2014 9:34 AM Diverse services —nails, dry cleaning, post office, versa tellers, drug store, ice cream stop 526 convenient walking access independent store operators (as opposed to franchise) outdoor seating / access 9.'25/2014 9:29 AM 527 1. 1 like the fact that there are some individually owned, small businesses on the street, such as Prestons, Nuts 9/25/2014 9:26 AM for Candy and All That Glitters that are incredibly community friendly and provide great products/services. 2. 1 am really glad there is a Starbucks as I frequent that location. 3. 1t is convenient to have a drug store (Walgreens) there as well. 528 I like a few of the restaurants - Rocca. MiVan, Village Host, & Behans - I also like Weimax, Walgreens, 9/25/2014 9:21 AM Starbucks, It Piccalo - Access to street - coming off Hwyl01 is easy access 529 Starbucks and Wells Fargo. Seem to be the only two reasons to go there. 9/25/2014 9:07 AM 530 walkability, small town feel, variety of services (shoes, hair salons, casual dining, formal dining, banks) 9/25/2014 8:26 AM 531 The look of the nicer traditional buildings. 9/25/2014 8:13 AM 532 1 like that there are more mom and pop type business; this differentiates from Budigame Avenue. However, I do 9/2512014 8:05 AM go to Burlingame Avenue 3x as often. 533 It looks like it was frozen in 8me since the 1950s. We need fresh new restaurants, and stores people would 9/25/2014 7:26 AM actually shop in. No more second hand shops, grungy nail salons and weird mom and pop computer repair shops. And NO FAST food restaurants!!! It drives me crazy every time I pass by subway.- _... _. _.. 534 ..

There are a couple OK restaurants 9/25/2014 12:17 AM 539 1. b of a machine 2. walgreens 3.

We love walking to coffee at II Picolo, lunch and dinner at all the other 9/24/2014 8:19 AM restaurants and grocery shopping at the Mom and Pop markets. Yes on facelift but please don't make Broadway a small version of Burlingame Avenue with its big box chain food high dollar feel. 561 Local stores/businesses (not many chain stores), unique grocers 9/24/2014 8:03 AM 562 Character, the big sign, ... 9,'24/2014 6:34 AM 563 Parking is reasonably priced. 9/24/2014 6:25 AM 564 Outdoor separating for coffee and eating establishments. 9/2312014 8:39 PM 565 location, restaurant variety, diversified places to go in Burlingame 9/2312014 7:39 PM 566 Good restaurants, Nuts for Candy, Burlingame Farmers Market 9/23/2014 4:03 PM 567 nice feel 9/23/20143:40 PM 568 pedestrian environment parking - including cost of meters mix of uses - groceries, drugstore, eatedeslcoffees, 9/23/2014 3:39 PM service businesses the Broadway sign at California Drive entry 569 Like the local feeling, local shops Like mixed price range of restaurant options 9/232014 3:33 PM 570 - Irs the entrance to burlingame off the freeway- high visibility 9/23/2014 3:05 PM 571 Love the small businesses.

BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 573 It doesn't feel overly commercialized - the places are mostly local, with the exception of Starbuck's and Subway. 9/23/2014 12:03 PM It feels homey and neighborly. Burlingame Avenue is too chic, too commercial. Please don't tum Broadway into another Burlingame Ave. 574 1) Less trendy than Bud. Ave 2) Still has that old Burlingame casual look and feel 3) Diagonal Parking and 9/23/2014 11:51 AM Welcome sign 575 Enough beauty, hair and nail salons and more variety of businesses and business types. There are only 3-4 9/23/2014 10:31 AM restaurants on Broadway worth eating at. The rest do not offer good food nor do they have any curb appeal. Bring in some big name retailers, like Burlingame Ave. Broadway has the potential to be Budingame's other Burlingame Ave if the city would get their act together. 576 Location;Like the local community feeling, like the relaxed atmosphere 9/23/2014 9:32 AM 577 The large number of small businesses - Beahan's, Preston's, the candy shop, Earthbeam, the donut shop, to 9/23/2014 9:08 AM 20/40 name a few. The fact that it sfill feels like a traditional downtown - it has not become too generic with a lot of chain stores and restaurants. That it feels safe - I don't worry about my teens hanging out there at night. 578 1- allow enough time at meters to eat in restaumats without rushing 2- the parking lot in train parking lot on 9/222014 11:05 PM california drive and broadway should should not charge $3 when ! only need to use the laundramat for 1 hour. 3 - parking meters must be functioning properly and the plastic cover over the "time" left need to be replaced when cant read time left on the meter 579 1. Sense of history with a few great older shops - Preston's and Earthbeam, to name a few. 2. Neighborhood feel 9/22/2014 10:07 PM 3. Broadway arch sign at the corner of California and Broadway 580 Neighbourhood restaurants local stores, angle parking 9122/20149:20 PM 581 Small businesses quaint. Love Pet Parade. Like the advertising for local events on banners that is already used- 9/22/2014 9:03 PM -gives small town feel. 582 Like that most of the business are local merchants, not the big chains we see on Burlingame Avenue. It would be 922/2014 8:41 PM very sad if the chains take over. The Buringame Farmers Market is a great addition. Because of this store, we come to this area once a week. We also love Earthbeam. Awesome store! 583 Nice to have local conveniences like pharmacy, coffee, takeout, food market, cleaners, shoe repair. 9122/2014 8:34 PM 584 Restaurant, Starbucks, ease of access walking 9/22/2014 7:42 PM 585 Would be nice if more like bud!ngame avenue 9/22/2014 7:38 PM 586 1 would like to see Broadway focus on food: take out/restaurants/grocery stores. We always go to the Burlingame 9/22/2014 6:59 PM Farmers Market grocery store, Weimax and Earthbeam. Those are our mainstays. We often go to Sesame, Magda Luna or Bonne Sante. The only worthwhile food outlets. Allowing more "offices" or non -retail in Broadway will destroy it even more than it is. Broadway is stagnant and could be so much more. It has a smaller, more artisanal, mom and pop feel than Burlingame which would lend itself well to really good "foodie" restaurants, small shops for cheese or a butcher, good wine etc. What it is now is a travesty of empty storefronts, pathetic restaurants (besides what I mentioned) with no customers and being the ugly stepsister to Burlingame. The money in Burlingame and Hillsborough and the desire for things of quality make what Broadway is an anomaly. People wonder "why"? It is because the landlords don't care and are paying Prop. 13 level taxes and have zero incentive or insight to make Broadway something special. 587 neighborhood restaurants; places to get things quickly w/adequate parking; US Post Office 9/22/2014 5:48 PM 588 Broadway has what I use, my bank, the pharmacy, Starbucks, post office and some restaurants I like. It is easy to 9/22/2014 5:47 PM come off the freeway and go to the shops. 589 Coffee shops Preston's, super cuts, organic market. 9/22/2014 5:43 PM 590 1 love the gateway sign.

Banks How the street looks 9/222014 5:36 PM 592 Great collection of "mom and pap" stores - (this is why I bought a residence nearby) Great variety of different 9/22/2014 4:56 PM types of shops This is a "small town" area - do NOT add more commercial office space!!! 593 Love the community feel. Love having a drug store and grocery. Love the mom and pop restaraunts. 9/22/2014 4:54 PM 594 1. The Old school Charm 2. Dont commecialize it like Burlingame Ave. 3.

Renovation/modernization will only force rents up, 9/22/2014 11:21 AM which will force the small stores out. Don't change anything. Don't waste money. There is nothing wrong with Broadway the way it is. It is a beautiful, unique street. Leave it that way. 618 1. 1 like the handful of shops between Paloma and Laguna. My favorites are Caffe 11 Piccolo and Village Host 2.1 9/22/2014 11:18 AM like the choice of restaurants that I'll visit from time to time. 3.

Great variety of eateries. 9/22/2014 10:50 AM Locally owned businesses, not mega chains! 623 It is small with narrow streets which allows both sides to be connected. Broadway Farmers Market has been a 9/22/2014 10:46 AM great asset to the neighborhood. The people at Cafe Figaro being outside to great neighbors during the day. 624 1) Smaller shop feel (more mom & pop) and non -chain restaurants 2) Less chaotic than downtown budingame - 9/22/201410:45 AM feels more like a small town community 3) Family friendly, community friendly 625 1 think Broadway Commercial District has a lot of character and I like that most of the shops are small local 9/2212014 9:58 AM businesses.

Not crowded. 715 Mix of small businesses and restaurants, together with drug stores. 24/40 9/21/2014 2:58 PM 9/21/2014 2:55 PM 9/21/2014 2:53 PM 92120142:51 PM 716 717 718 719 720 721 722 723 724 725 726 727 728 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY Parking, no construction, few chain stores No opinion. Nothing... Broadway is the ugly stepsister to Burlingame Ave. Has lots of potential but no one is making smart decisions how to step up retail and restaurant locations . Weimax, bonne sante and the health foodstore. The farmers market on the corner. Quality places such as the potpourri store, earth beam, bonne sante, Weimax, Preston's, Rocca and Broadway Grill. Trees lit along Broadway. proximity to freeway more locally owned restaurants and shops Their restaurants, Earthbean , II Picicillo, and All that Glitters. I like that Broadway stores are not all big corporations, but that it maintains a small time feel, small town charm excellent choice of restaurants easy access to 101 The area needs to be updated, much like Burlingame Ave was. Low-key neighborhood feel, .Easy parking. Formal & informal restaurants.. Keep the U.S. Postal Office. Big Joe's Cafe, freeway on ramps, and Preston's Ice Cream 1. 1 go to the Broadway Commercial District to visit a nail salon and All That Glitters. 2. Sometimes—since I have to pay for parking anyway—I'1! stop into the bank or post office to take care of some personal business. 3. It is convenient to park once and have access to all these businesses, within a short distance of a few blocks.. Good variety of restaurants, close to public transportation and easy and cheaper parking 729 Central location 730 unpretentious- distinctive character -minimum of chain stores 731 The narrow road has a good traffic calming effect and the location is very convenient. 732 Preston's, Restaurants, post office, banks, good crosswalks 733 Location.

In addition, our needs are met for dining, take out, coffee, dry cleaning, food and vegetables, ice cream and candy, drugstore and banking. Its all here on just a few blocks! So much better than Burlingame Ave. 742 Current restaurants and shops 743 Unlike Burlingame ave Broadway feels like a mom and pop district. 744 The Restaurants; Walgreens The health food store 745 Mom and pop stores Parking Sidewalks 746 The local flavor of the street balances with the more chain store dominated Burlingame Avenue. 747 Variety of good restaurants Essentials like dry cleaning, bank, walgreens, produce market Family atmosphere and community owned establishments. 748 Pedestrian friendly street.

It has a nice, non -pretentious vibe to it 9120/2014 8:38 PM 756 - A variety of restaurants, at least one bar and a coffee shop. 9/20/2014 8:37 PM 757 The district feels down to earth and hometown, not many chains, if any. Proprieters know the customers. 9/20/2014 8:32 PM 758 Redo the street like BG Ave project 9/20/20148: 21 PM 759 Grocery Restaurant Home improvement 9/20/2014 8:11 PM 760 burlingame produce, taste of meditemanean, less commercial than budingame ave. 9/20/2014 8:09 PM 761 Broadway Farmers Market Near post office Large retail pharmacy 9/20/2014 8:02 PM 762 Nice to keep it a neighborhood providing services such as restaurants, hardware, grocery, pharmaceutical, 9/2012014 7:55 PM services. Do not want franchises or corporate stores. Please keep it serviceable and convenient for local neighborhood. Love that it is not too upscale. 763 Businesses are local, not corporate. The thrift stores are great. There is a sense of small town, friendliness.

It's nice that there are different options to go out to dinner. It's a 9120/2014 6:05 PM strength that we have another place to go to other than Burlingame Ave; the convenience of having places close by to grab a cop of coffee or go to the drug store for instance. 772 good non chain grocery stores - 9/20120146: 00 PM 773 Restaurants, Shops 9/20/2014 5:52 PM 774 The Arch. A landmark Keep Earth Bean More offices, make Broadway a thriving business/office district, along 9/20/2014 5:51 PM with more independent shops, being the Ave is now mostly National tenants. 775 It's nice having a bar to go to in the area. 9/20/2014 5:50 PM 776 The location is ideal -the proximity to the freeway makes it convent 9/20/2014 5:39 PM 777 My bank, broadway Fashion dry cleaners, Aji Yoshi, Walgreens, Groomingdale's, village host 9/20/2014 5:14 PM 778 - It's easy to get to. It has a great pub and a couple of decent restaurants and I do like the grocery stores. 9/20/2014 5:13 PM 779 Nothing 9/20/2014 5:05 PM 780 tree lined street 9'2012014 4:53 PM 781 The restaurants are the only reason I go to Broadway. 9/20/2014 4:52 PM 26/40 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 782 Streetscape to keep with bulb outs and restaurant seating - good Mom and pop stores for use by residents Walk 9/20/2014 4:32 PM ability to stores from the neighborhoods. 783 Small and folksy.

Restaurants are limited and should be expanded. 9/20/2014 3:35 PM 788 Walking distance from Easton addition. 9120,2014 3:30 PM 789 Bank, grocery, nail salon 9/20/2014 3:23 PM 790 1) Location Is key - we live in the Easton addition, so Broadway is much more convenient (and specifically, 9/20/2014 3:19 PM walkable) than Burlingame Ave district 2) The parking is fine. While if the Broadway area were more popular, more parking might be needed, for the current purposes, parking is plentiful 3) There is no #3. To be candid, we are fairly disappointed with the Broadway commercial district 791 Keep drugstore, needs more clothing stores and restaurants 9/20/2014 3:16 PM 792 Variety, Classy, Open 9/20/2014 2:50 PM 793 There are some strong anchor stores like Walgreens, Weiri and a few restaurants. 9/20/2014 2:49 PM 794 New Pilates studio opening hopefully will draw more people but Broadway needs more restaurants, wine bar, fun 9/20/2014 2:48 PM things so people want to come and visit. Sidewalks need to be more maintained. It needs a mini face lift. It doesn't need more offices, we need fun new places for people to eat and drink at so it becomes more of a destination. Broadway grill is fun but there needs to be more places for people to go out and get apps and cocktails. Maybe a juice bar. Think of young families, young couples, locals who want to go out but they avoid t Burlingame ave be the parking is challenging. Everyone want more for Broadway they just don't understand why the city doesn't do anything to encourage it? 795 Food markets are necessary. Restaurants are convenient with appropriate price range and food varieties. 9/20/2014 2:39 PM Hardware stores have come and gone due to big chains and parking. Walgreens is very convenient; their parking lot is very handy. I like the few outdoor eating spots. 796 More personal business ownership, less corporate. Pedestrian -friendly, luxuriant 9120/20142:17 PM 797 Local businesses (rather than chain stores prevalent on Burlingame Ave.), variety of inexpensive restaurants, 9/20/2014 2:12 PM places to shop for groceries 798 like small town feel but now feels run down 9/20/2014 2:08 PM 799 Good freeway access is all I can think of 9120/2014 1:54 PM 800 walgreens, restaurants, coffee shops, bar, goodwill and pet store like goodwill 9/20/2014 1:50 PM 801 1 consider Broadway a lifestyle street where you run your everyday errands, the bank, the post office and some 9/20/20141:46 PM groceries. Keep it local or smaller chain businesses focused on upscale home repair, remodel and groceries. 802 High number of restaurants 9/20/20141 40 PM 803 We need to fix the parking problem 9/20/20141:38 PM 804 Stores 9/20120141:07 PM 805 good variety of restaurants but none are very high end. additional types of restaurants would be good. 9/2012014 1:07 PM 806 1 only go there for the dog groomer and the Mediterranean restaurant. Sometimes, IT use the bank too. 9/20/2014 1:06 PM 807 COFFEE SHOPS, RESTAURANTS AND BARS, BEAUTY SALONS, HAIR NAILS, ETC. 9120'20141:00 PM 808 No real strengths. Hate going there. I suppose it is convenient for people in the area, but I rarely voluntarily go 9120;2014 12:49 PM there. 809 Small-town feel, no (more) chain stores or restaurants, encourage local businesses and restaurants. Street lights 9/20/2014 12:46 PM are beautiful. Landscaping with pots looks great. 27/40 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 810 walk -ability; variety of shopping... drugstore, groceries, beauty, restaurants and coffee shops, dry cleaners, banks; 9/20/201412:41 PM street furniture and low walls for casual meeting spots; 811 ethnic restaurants; boutique shops 9/20/2014 12:31 PM 812 Parking is generally not too bad. Good variety of restaurants and businesses. Not a hassle, like Burlingame Ave. 9120/2014 11:41 AM 813 Close parking. 9/20/2014 10:51 AM 814 Location to my house, Broadway Produce, Sterling Bank 9/20/2014 10:51 AM 815 Small town feel 9/20/2014 10:43 AM 816 1 rarely go to that district I live closer to budingame ave, and there would have to be something that was really 9/20/2014 10:42 AM great to get me there. Quality restaurants or stores I cannot get over an Burlingame Ave. 817 Variety is good - health food, fresh food, few restaurants. Bank, pharmacy. 9/20/201410:25 AM 818 1 love the convenience of having the post office, Chevron gas station, Wells Fargo bank, Walgreens, and food 9/20/2014 10:21 AM market. We enjoy many of the restaurants/eateries such as Rocca, Taste In, Magdalena, coffee shops, Subway, Preston's, Broadway Grill, Irish pub, and candy store. Some of my favorite establishments are Spa Elysee and Potpourri. 819 Simply put, Broadway is more user friendly; i.e., small stores, more personal interaction, much less trendy. 9/20/2014 10:16 AM Earthbeam is a good example. Clerks know my first name; personnel go out of their way to order something for me they don't ordinarily carry. This street is not catering to the 20 -or -30 -somethings and I feel more comfortable here than on Burlingame Avenue which has turned into a chain store, outdoor, extremely high-priced mall. You may have not noticed, but the one high -dollar women's store (Elle, I believe) did not last long. 820 Good mix of restaurants and sundries 9/20/2014 10:01 AM 821 Local, neighborhood vibe 9/20/20149:46 AM 822 1. convenient 2. comfortable 3. friendly 9/20/2014 9:45 AM 823 Family run shops Basic needs - banking, groceries, pharmacies a wide assortment of restaurants 9/20!2014 9:44 AM 824 Location.

Burlingame Ave is a mall. 9/20/2014 9:36 AM 827 Local. not trying to be something its not. Good value and friendly. 9/20/2014 9:36 AM 828 Parking and some good "old -school" restaurants. 9/20/2014 9:34 AM 829 Convenience stores Banks Restaurants 9/202014 9:33 AM 830 Variety of restaurants Adequate parking Variety of family run businesses 9/20/2014 9:19 AM 831 1. Like that chain stores do not have a presence. 2. The focus of stores is on day-to-day needs, e.g., drug store, 9/20/2014 9:17 AM dry cleaners, coffee shops, convenient grocery stores. 3. Convenience is important. So, anything done to make Broadway less convenient I would oppose. 832 B of A ATM. Village Host Pl za Broadway Fashion Cleaners 9/20/2014 9:16 AM 833 good mixture of restaurants 9/20/2014 9:16 AM 834 1. 1 would keep the privately owned restaurants, bars, businesses vs. corporations (i.e., stores seen on 9/202014 9:15 AM Burlingame Ave.) 835 Starbucks (would love 4 if it were larger) Some Convenience Stores / Services (e.g. Walgreens, Gas) 9/202014 8:56 AM 836 Fruit/organic markets Wine store Dry cleaning 920/2014 8:52 AM 837 Wells Fargo Bank needs more parking space. Wells Fargo Bank needs more parking space. Wells Fargo Bank 9/20/2014 8:46 AM needs more parking space. 838 1) Great small town feel but needs MAJOR facelift 2) Restaurants need to be cleaner &present a more 9/20/2014 8:35 AM aesthetically pleasing environment 3) Overall, stares & stdp need guidance & support on curb appeal & signage. The whole strip looks dated, unappealing & uninviting... like the poor stepsister of Burlingame Ave. 28/40 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 839 1 love the "small town" and "local" feel of Broadway and hope that is always retained. Also, love love love the farmers market and the natural food store. Also the vegan food shop (qua se raw?) 840 nice sidewalks and restaurants 841 Earthbeam Natural Foods relatively easy parking good variety of businesses with friendly proprietors 842 Earthbeam-unique shop Convenience of a bank Weimax-special shop 843 ' balanced variety of shops ` good variety of restaurants' retains some of the old Burlingame feel (i.e., 844 coffe shops, Mediterranean market, walgreens wells fargo, I like the Mom n Pop feel. 845 Pawsitively Groomed, bonne sante, Earthbeam, Rocca, Beahan's, Village Host, Weimax, Walgreens, Cafe Figaro, B - The "staples" of Broadway. Without them there would be no reason to visit. Looking forward to the new plates studio — if the owners/instructors are good, PII be going there. 846 Friendly merchants. Parking fee reasonable. Broadway arch. 847 Broadway has a good array of restaurants. Would like to see even more vanety, particularly ones that have outdoor dining. I dont feel that Broadway needs more shops since Burlingame avenue covers that. However, broadway would be a good location for more small boutiques. A 848 Small business Clean streets Variety of shops 849 small town feel outdoors instead of mail atmosphere easy access 850 coffee shops, Preston, bank, Walgreens, Village Host 851 Shops restaurants are nice 852 Prestons, parking on Broadway, access from California 853 The variety of restaurants, and small shops 854 Shabu House, Village Host Pizza, II Piccolo Caffe 855 Independent stores, small town feel, angled parking 856 1) Friendly neighborhood businesses. 2) Atmosphere, is, clean streets, lights in trees, benches, Flower planters. 3) Variety of restaurants & shops. 857 1. Close and friendly community. 2. Small town feel. 3. Safe area. 858 Location, cafes health food and farmers market 859 Starbucks, other restaurants, banks 860 Bank, Prestons, Walgreens 861 1) Earthbeam Natural Foods for the products they sell plus the beautiful garden -like front street comer they maintain with care and consistency. 2) Parking lots and parking meters (not central payment machines). 3) Keep favorite old time traditional shops like Prestonsill Prestons, Earthbeam, Pot- Pound, Lumier, II Piccolo Caffe, and Cafe Capuchino, are the prize of Broadway - family owned (not a national chain like Subway or SuperCuts), artistically maintained store fronts, clean intenors and offering top quality products. 4) services like the post office and the tailor 862 Neighborhood feel. A place for Burlingame residents to feel at home. 863 The accessibility and convenience of food stores, especially within walking distance which is important for the elderly who can no longer drive. The fact that we have a natural foods store, The Earthbeam, is a big value. 864 - Easy approach from 101 --Keep Preston's—easy access from EI Camino -- 865 Convenient businesses/services for locals are most important to me; I like being able to walk to my bank, Walgreens, Starbucks, and casual restaurants for weeknight dinners. I also love walking to Preston's with my daughter. The Caltrein station is another important feature that I want to maintain. 866 Decent number of restaurants 29/40 9/202014 8:18 AM 9/20/2014 8:17 AM 9/20/2014 8:09 AM 9/20/2014 8:01 AM 9/2012014 7:40 AM 9/20/2014 7:38 AM 9/20/2014 7:31 AM 9/20/2014 7:24 AM 9/202014 7:00 AM 920/2014 7:00 AM 9/20/2014 6:45 AM 9/20/2014 6:42 AM 9/202014 6:31 AM 9/20/2014 5:04 AM 9/202014 4:44 AM 9/20/2014 4:39 AM 9/20/2014 3:21 AM 9/202014 2:38 AM 9120120141:48 AM 9/20/20141:20 AM 9/20/2014 12:57 AM 920/2014 12:48 AM 9/20/2014 12:46 AM 9/2012014 12:34 AM 9/20/201412:08 AM 9/19/2014 11:46 PM 9/19/20141145 PM 9/19/2014 11:32 PM 867 868 869 870 871 872 873 874 875 876 877 878 879 880 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY Affordable, local restaurants Easy parking Small convenience grocery stores Keep the mom and pop stores (no national chain stores) - like Weimax, Prestons, Piccolo, Earthbeam, Shabu House, Magda Luna, Behan's Convenient parking Pet Parade!

Different feel from Burlingame Ave. It's more "mom and pop" local businesses compared to Budingame Avenue which tends to have more chains. II piccolo Antique store Grocery market Local merchants Good access, cute street 1) More casual and eclectic dining options compared to Burlingame Ave 2) More local orientation (ie, Burlingame residents). Busy but less hustle & bustle. 3) Convenient to my home in Easton Addition and easier to park.

I generally like Broadway shops as a backup to downtown 9/19/2014 9:02 PM Burlingame since downtown gets so crowded and so often parking is so hard to find. I also hope the Walgreens will stay because it is convenient to have that in the area. 904 Starbuck's and some of the restaurants Village Host, Broadway Grill, Magda Luna should stay.

It feels more 9/19/2014 5:19 PM European than Burlingame Avenue. I like Starbucks and Walgreens too but not many more chains. It has a decent selection of restaurants, but in my opinion, not the best restaurants. Not a single one has a good wine list. Rocca's is only so-so. So the foodies are not coming to Broadway. Love the food truck night with music, etc. 1003 1004 1005 1006 1007 1008 1009 1010 1011 1012 1013 1014 1015 1016 1017 1018 1019 1020 1021 1022 1023 1024 1025 1026 Many locally owed business' Preston's. Retain mom'n pop stores. Minimize chains and franchises. Convenient markets Love the farmers market Restaurants one or two restaurants nothing else ... needs improvement Keep Preston's and strong standing establishments. Too many hair salons Addition to Burlingame Avenue as a shopping district for the city. Keep the old world small town ambience!I Keep the small, mama papa businesses. Too much commercial bldg., Le., apts, condos, business giants, etc. Too many people = too many cars, too many large, out of place homes built. EI Camino is like driving on the freeway, too much congestion. People move here because they loved the small town feel, which is being ruined by what you want to call "progress". Does everything have to be about money? Stop the building & expansion. The Walgreens and the Boulangerie across from it and the gas station and the Bank of Amence ATM and the Starbucks and nail salon that is right next door. The natural food stare and the farmers market store! Need wider street for driver. Maintain parking area. Update all area. Small size easy to walk around convenient for short trips Cute stares Not too many chain stores. I like all the small, independent shops! So many local businesses rather so many corporate businesses on Budingame Avenue Community business support to local endeavors (school fund raisers, political campaign meetings etc.) Personal recognition in most business places Earthbeam Health Food Store. Produce store, e5. Bank Proximity Restaurants Food (market and Walgreens) 1. Lack of chain stores 2. A nice mix of retail, restaurants and business 3. A low key atmosphere (unlike B. Ave) It's walking distance to my house. Parking isn't too terrible. It has a few decent, but not phenomenal, restaurants.

Good community spirit among shop owners. 1031 Great restaurants Convenience from Burlingame Hills Neighborhood feel 1032 The local store propnelors!!!

Broadway. It's the first thing you see when you exit the 9/19/2014 4:37 PM freeway. Clients are less inclined to buy homes near this area as the perception is that it's the old part of Burlingame. 1044 Variety of businesses - emphasis on family oriented establishments. 9/19/2014 4:36 PM 1045 Beautiful, real, family oriented, laid back unlike the pretentious and expensive Burlingame eve. 9/19/2014 4:36 PM 1046 1 can walk to the downtown. Really like the produce store and Walgreen's for milk and eggs 9/19/2014 4:36 PM 1047 1 think that the stores and restaurants on Broadway are great—they satisfy the needs and wants of the general 9/19/20144:35 PM public. The produce store provides quality items for the surrounding neighborhood. The coffee shops are awesome places to relax and meet friends. The cleaners/tailors provide convenient service for the neighborhood also. The parking that is available around the area is ample and usually I can always find a spot to park. 1048 lots of specialized retail but no businesses people actually need 9/19/2014 4:35 PM 1049 Burlingame Fanners market, weimans, nice community feel 9/19/2014 4:34 PM 1050 good restaurants Walgreens can usually find parking 9/19/2014 4:33 PM 1051 vendors, variety and convenience 9/19/2014 4:33 PM 1052 Locally owned cafes, restaurants, and shops. I would lave to walk down Broadway Avenue and be able to pop 9/19/2014 4:32 PM into one after another. Or to walk along in the evening, and pick a dinner restaurant. There are a few good restaurants. I believe the restaurants would have better turnout if there were more choices. Our favorites: Bonne Sante, Taste In, Magdaluna, Sesame, Royal Donut, Cafe Figaro, Rocca, Le Croissant, & Village Host. I love the lights on the trees at the Holidays. 1053 It has a quaint vibe. I think adding a bunch of nationwide big box retailers would be a shame. 9/19/2014 4:32 PM 1054 Good mix of restaurants Smaller businesses (mom and pop type) retail oriented 9/19/2014 4:32 PAA 1055 Do not reduce parking any further.

It's NOT Burlingame Ave, it's been able to keep the feel of a real persons street 2. There are actually useful 9/19/2014 4:20 PM shops on Broadway that are locally owned. Not a Gap, not a Melt, not a large tea chain... (who needs an entire store of tea?) 3. There's a real food store there, The Burlingame Farmer's Market And a real liquor store, charging Burlingame prices of course, but whatever.

I like the fact that Broadway is more small business owners rather than the chain stores that are on Burlingame Ave. I like the feel of it I like that it is homey - neither full of national chain stores or prohibitively fancy (2 issues with Burlingame Ave.) None Its old. ugly and redown.. Proximity to my house, pharmacy, bank. Restaurants, coffee shops, drug store - non -pretentious atmosphere - small businesses (not chains or franchises) - great freeway access 1. The old fashioned funkiness of Broadway. While I live (and have most of my life) in Burlingame as well as maintain a business in Burlingame, the Avenue has become too commercialized. The baby stroller issue is a bit much! Meaning, that socialization is now around a coffee shop with little kids. I feel sorry for the little kids not being able to play at a park! 2. The eclectic nature of the stores. I like how there is no theme to the stores. And, the mom and pop shops still exist. 3. The neighborhood feel. What is good, the small business, not the big box people like the mall on Burlingame Ave. Some of the older buildings are beautiful. I like the Broadway Burlingame arch. I love the Broadway Grill. Local establishments and very few chain restaurantsistores Ease of parking Get my nails done ... that wasn't on the list of services, Burlingame Farmers Market'store, Coffee houses. Walgreens and it's near my house that I can walk also. Mom and pop restaurants Focus on restaurantslfood. Good mix of businesses love the family owned businesses that have been there forever Friendly... Convenient "staples" including walgreens, dry cleaners, market. Lower cost meters compared to downtown. Easy parking Great location! Near the train station. Feels like a neighbor, part of a community, many mom and pop stores - not national chains Very well appointed Merchant Association, smaller boutiques, no major anchor tenants (with exception of Starbucks). Lots of good coffee options, good food and a nice variety, and I love the small boutique style shops. Diverse stores and restaraunts - not all high end so a diversity of costs Easy access off of 101 on the way home from work Treelined, nice street Great restaurants Locally owned businesses Good variety of businesses I like it as is 9/19/2014 4:13 PM 9/19/2014 4:13 PM 9/19/20144:13 PM 9/19/20144:11 PM 9/19/2014 4:11 PM 9/19/20144:10 PM 9119/2014 4'10 PM 9/19/2014 4:09 PM 9/19/2014 4:09 PM 9/19/2014 4:08 PM 9/19/2014 4:08 PM 9/19/2014 4:08 PM 9/19/2014 4:07 PM 9/192014 4:07 PM 911 912 014 4:07 PM 9/19/2014 4:06 PM 9/19/2014 4:06 PM 9/19/20144:05 PM 9/19/2014 4.05 PM 9/19/2014 4:05 PM 9/19/20144:05 PM _ 9/192014 4:04 PM 9/19/2014 4:04 PM 9/19/2014 4:04 PM 9/19/2014 4:04 PM 9/19/2014 4:04 PM Candy store Rocca Preston's Wells Fargo Produce store Starbucks and I also go to one across the street.

But so many shops look languid, out of date, out of 9/19/2014 4:02 PM place, tired, shabby. The street itself can be congested as a route to 101. Starbucks and Walgreens seem to do the most business.

Along Broadway and on the side streets before entering residential areas (also trash cans here and in parking lots). Do not need any more restaurants - there is already a lot of them and a wide variety.

More parking. More pedestrian friendly Stores that service the neighborhood: ie. Gorcery, pharmacy, hardware stores, etc updated sidewalks updated commercial facing - many places look old and run down Update like Burlingame Ave (1) Reduce the number of vacant storefronts. (2) Reduce the number of restaurants which no one appears to eat at and which aren't very attractive. (3) The "massage parlor" has got to go! Who are they kidding? 1. Independent book store 2. More retail shopping (clothes) Good stores. -More easy family food food options: burritos, soupisalad, or burgers -hardware store-toys/books/children's items More variety of stores, more restaurant options, Sidewalk/ storefronts could be updated More smaller restaurants with open air seating Sitting cafes More shops More parking More support for small businesses. Better quality of restaurants. Ideally with outdoor seating. Aesthetic of the street, between California and EI Camino Real. Maybe a little upgrading of store signage. trees. Better parking - it used to be much easier to park More restaurants More take out food options Try not to mess up a good thing by adding any more restaurants, limit salons and what goes on there, make sure the post office doesn't leave. The city should encourage new local sustainable commerce to go there. It would be a fantastic balance for the city to have a high end / branded center at bur ingame and an independent / local center at Broadway. (Think town and country revival in Palo Alto) Empty store fronts More parking -especially short (24 mins.) and long term (8-9 hours for workers) Really GOOD restaurants- EI Figaro, Broadway Grill are great examples More mom and pop stoms/upscale/artisan shops (e.g. fishmonger, butcher, bakery, artisan/organic foods) which will bring more charm and more specialized businesses to shop at (vs Burlingame Ave); less consignment type of stores which downgrade quality of whole street. Stores need refreshing/updating. (Upcoming yogalpilates place looks great!) More variety of family -friendly restaurants (Rocca is great; Broadway Grill okay but very overpriced; better pizza place...) 46 1 believe Broadway should attract First time business owner with reasonable rent and smaller spaces (if you look at the ones for lease right now, there are way too big for a first time business person to give it a shot) and with the renown of Burlingame avenue, Broadway should be seen as an incubator for future business's. I also think that rents (as difficult as this could be) should be somehow controlled in order to protect the small business's already in place and also to protect successful small business owner from having to go because the landlord jacked up the rent like crazy now that he is successful 1 As a walking and cycling person, I see enough cars on broadway but people are good and they don't Fly too quickly down or up that street. 47 I'd like to see it'snazzed up' a bit, to look visually more cohesive. There is a slip -shod look to the street and it could use some cohesion, so that the street matches the Broadway Burlingame overarching sign and community as it is today— in look and feel and not look like a street in some neglected Avenue in a gritty area of another city. 48 Maintain small neighborhood feel to mix of businesses. Please do NOT go vertical --no highnses! 49 Upgrade the real estate, the stores and restaurants - bring it into the current century and prepared for the future... 50 Cleaner More boutiques Better tragic flow 2/48 10/31/2014 2:49 PM 10/3112014 2:44 PM 10/30/2014 8:42 PM 10/30/2014 4:14 PM 10/30/2014 10:54 AM 10/26/2014 7:22 PM 10/26/2014 1:58 PM 10/26/2014 12:21 PM 10/26/2014 11:44 AM 10/26/2014 9:54 AM 10/24/2014 9:44 PM 10/24/2014 2:32 PM 10/23/2014 9:46 PM 10/23/2014 8:47 AM 10/21/2014 10:47 PM 10/21/2014 8:48 PM 10/21/2014 7:49 PM 10/21/2014 4:08 PM 10/21/20141:41 PM 10/21/20141:29 PM 10/21/2014 12:23 PM 10/21/2014 11:57 AM 10/20/2014 5:06 PM 10/20/2014 11:30 AM 10/20/2014 11:12 AM 10/19/2014 8:43 PM BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 51 More parking, cross walk lights, 10/19/2014 8:29 PM 52 Better sidewalk and planter maintenance. 10/19/2014 5:35 PM 53 1 don't think that this area will ever be a vital commercial district as it is basically an on ramp to and from the 101 10/19/2014 1:30 PM freeway and there is too much traffic on it. 54 More restaurants Beautification 10/19/2014 1:00 PM 55 Allow more restos. 1 0/1 912014 11:49 AM 56 Facelift Signage and styling Variety of stores 10/19/2014 8:36 AM 57 To be like Burlingame ave 10/19/2014 8:06 AM 58 10/19/2014 6:47 AM 59 A reason to actually walk there over Burlingame avenue 10/19/2014 12:30 AM 60 More parking, more shopping. 10/18/2014 11:32 PM 61 Bit more chane: vintage street lights, hanging baskets 10/18/2014 11:17 PM 62 Make the store fronts more appealing. 10/18/2014 9:52 PM 63 - More restaurants 10/18/2014 9:47 PM 64 More appealing retail stores, nice restaurants (Broadway Grill is a joke) -build it and they will come! 10/1812014 9:32 PM 65 Parking meters should be for up to 2 hours so you can have an uninterrupted meal - and the rates should stay 10/18/2014 8:42 PM reasonable.

Add a farmers market, and actually have 10/18/2014 7:18 PM vendors and market it this time. 67 More restaurants and better shops, boutiques, etc. 10/18/2014 5:53 PM 68 more sidewalk seating areas from restaurants (outdoor dining space), stationary store, better lighting 10/18/2014 5:34 PM 69 Additional parking 10/18/2014 4:59 PM 70 More nightlife 10/18/20144:17 PM 71 A stationary store for paper goods, cards etc. .. 10/18/2014 2:52 PM 72 o 10/1 W0142:42 PM 73 Easier parking for access to restaurants. Outdoor eating options. Improve traffic flow. Improve general 10/18/2014 1:01 PM cleanliness. 74 Just don't know 10/18/2014 12:57 PM 75 Help keep prices (rents) low enough that small interesting businesses can survive. Monitor general parking 10/18/2014 12-40 PM availability—dont tum into a Burlingame (San Mateo is also becoming difficult) 76 Please help to get rid of the old 2o� nand clothing boutiques. They are so dirty and bring the street down. The 10/18/2014 12:39 PM street really needs a new anchor store - or stores. Pottery Barn kids would be amazing. There are a many young families and 1st time parents that live here. Call Laura Alber at Pottery Barn (President). Their signature store is Standford. Their executives have to drive all the way there when they do new floor sets. I'm sure it would make good business sense for them (demos) to open in Bgame. Williams Sonoma would be a good store too. Would be great to get some new restaurants. Ideally with outdoor- or better yet, rooftop seating. This would be something unique compared to Bgame ave. 77 Fresh paint on building exteriors to freshen up the loo on Broadway. it has the feel of a Mid -Western old town 10/18/201410:48 AM USA Better Landscaping Too bad that the entrance of ourfair City has to have gas stations on both comers, they should be on California drive or Cahalan. That would be the best improvement in my opinion 78 Another sidewalk dining restaurant; Hmm, that's all I can think of. 1 011 8/2014 10:27 AM 79 MORE ADA parking spots conveniently located! Unique shops not the big chain stores we see on Burlingame 10/18/2014 10:10 AM Avenue nice tasteful artsy shops Do NOT widen the side walks for Broadway Keep the quaint feel 3/48 MM BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 80 hardware store with a good selection (another Ace Hardware would be nice) 10/18/2014 1004 AM 81 1) incentivise new development to create some density to create more foot traffic. 2) encourage a variety of new 10/18/2014 9:51 AM restaurant uses 3) more community oriented activities 4) encourage a variety of new uses to provide a reason for more people to go to broadway 5) encourage better architectural solutions on new work. 6) encourage outdoor retail activity 82 - Want to be careful not to price businesses out of the area/street. The non -chain stores provide the character to 10/18/2014 9:42 AM Broadway - a very different feel than Burlingame Ave. I do not live right near B -way and would hope that the locals (people who visit often) have a strong voice. 83 1,2, and 3....A big dream: remove the impact that the freeway access and train crossing has on Broadway. 10/18/2014 9:22 AM 84 Better quality restaurants, just because we have variety does not mean they are good. Also encourage more 10/18/2014 9:21 AM clothing stores other than second hand stores. 85 a few more restaurants. Clean up the street a bit . Broadway, not Burlingame avenue was the street that needed 10/18/2014 9:20 AM parallel parkinglll Ban trucks on it except for local delivries. 86 Diverse food options Sports bar with HD TV 10/18/2014 8:43 AM 87 Stores seem junky. 10/18120148:05 AM 88 no more large chain stores - They discourage the small businesses who cannot compete encourage small retail 10/18/2014 8:04 AM business 89 Better ambiance, cleaner streets, more friendliness of II Piccolo owner. 10/18/2014 7:57 AM 90 A really good shoe repair No fast food like McDonalds or Burger King, etc. 10/18/2014 7:27 AM 91 Improve the look and feel. 10/18/2014 7:20 AM 92 There are a few vacant stores and they need to be rented to independently owned creative stores. I think. 1 10/17/2014 11:42 PM always liked the look of downtown Los Gatos, and wondered why we couldn't make Broadway look more like that? 93 1) A bakery would be great. 2) Also, a households goods store that specializes in something quaint but useful, 10117/2014 11:31 PM such as selling everything to do with tea and coffee (cups, coffee pots and machines, teapots, tea cozies, accessories, etc.). 3) Finally, if you did add another food establishment, we would love a good soup & sandwich / deli shop that stayed open later in the day; a place similar to The Plant, in which everything was organic, sustainable, responsibly/ethically sourced and grown. That is very important to my family - we eat with a conscious! 94 Street layout, resting area and go green with shade 10/17/2014 10:56 PM 95 More shops. 101171201410:33 PM 96 More retail shops, lights on the trees (to add to beautification), entertainment (perhaps turn the restaurant train 10/17/2014 10:30 PM depot into small theater house orjazz supper club), open street fairs, more frequent shuttles looping between Burlingame Ave and Broadway during peak hours, rental bikes, small playground 97 some nice small dress shops (no chains) more side walk dining (I like San Carlos) 10/17/201410:18 PM 98 Miss the old family owned drug store Little grocery store Small movie like the old one on California 10/17/2014 10.07 PM 99 Fewer cheap restaurants, less restrictive ordinances on entertainment and sidewalk cafes 10/17/2014 10:05 PM 100 Night market in the summer with food trucks, resaurant food to go and lots of tables and music like in France. The 10/17/2014 9:59 PM one on the train tracks is too exposed and does not encourage people to hang around. A butcher shop 101 access to Caltrain more or better restaurants/entertainment Create identity and one different from Burlingame 10/17/2014 9:50 PM ave 102 Hardware store Grocery Store 10/17/2014 8:22 PM 103 More family friendly restaurants$ - 10/17/2014 7:35 PM 104 Make it look nice, bring in some decent chain stores, bring in some good, high quality restaurants 10/17/2014 5:57 PM MM BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 105 No more resale shops!!! We have goodwill,pick of the Iitter,Suttenaelds,GG's graffeo and now B -More formally 10/1712014 5:11 PM known as Blue skies. It looks TACKIE with all the cloths hanging outside on racks and the sidewalks cluttered like a third world country.Why is this still allowed even after they have been sited... The Broadway Deli needs to open and stop running a catering business out the back door. How is this allowed? What kind of business license do they have? Also, Why does the broadway prime use the old hardware store as a storage unit? There is simple no one watching over BROADWAY. Its like no one cares!I BROADWAY NEEDS HELP! Before we have more vacant spaces that no one wants to rent. 106 Keep sidewalks cleaner, add a variety or Dollar store,freshen up planters 10/17/2014 5:01 PM 107 Poor quality of restaurants Need better upper end bars and restaurants. _ 10/17/2014 2:25 PM 108 nothing 10/17/20141:43 PM 109 More parking Stronger, higher -value retailers Weekday Caltrain service 10/17/2014 1:31 PM 110 1 - I'd like to see the continued revitalization of Broadway. 2 - More outdoor dining and increased foot traffic as 10/17/2014 12:59 PM opposed to more cars. 3 - Better dispersion of traffic flow exiting 101 at the Broadway exit. Broadway can be brutal during the AM and PM commute times. 111 It needs a major face lift like what was done to Burlingame Ave to attract more consumers. 10/17/2014 12:50 PM 112 Would be nice to have another pub or lounge for the younger crowd or young professionals. A bakery or a meat 10/17/2014 11:03 AM market. The grocery store on broadway does not have fresh meat (chicken, steak, etc.). 113 1. Enlarged variety of services offered, eg. hardware store, bakery, local drug store. (all have closed) 2. Off street 10/17/201411:01 AM parking 3 Meat market 114 I would like store fronts to be more appealing and a place that people would like to go relax and enjoy themselves 10/17/2014 10:50 AM in. I want a better variety of restaurants, the restaurants are horrible. Since it is apart of a neighborhood it needs more of a North Beach feel. We need a good bakery that would bring crowds along with good restaurants. Overall we need just a better places for people to go to to make the feel of the town feel warm and attract more people. Many people view broadway as a bad area and not a fun place to go to. That needs to change! 115 Spruce it up a bit ... looks run down Less nail establishments- too many 10/17/2014 10:28 AM 116 Improved traffic control sign/code enforcement traffic calming/reinstatement of lighted crosswalk 10117/2014 10:21 AM 117 Please ADD: 1) a beginning Yoga place 2) yogurt place 3) bakery store similar to Copenhagen bakery 10117/2014 10:11 AM 118 upgrade to landscaping, attract more retail, more parking make it more of a destination spot 10/17/2014 8:20 AM 119 restaurants, better store fronts 10/17Y2014 7:23 AM 120 Less empty businesses, and more inviting look on the street with greenery and outdoor sitting. 10/17/2014 7:22 AM 121 Minor cosmetic upgrades - lights, trees, planters, benches, etc. 1011712014 5:59 AM 122 Broadway needs to be brightened up. The sidewalks are dark and very, very narrow. I would like the opportuity to 10/17/2014 5:38 AM be able to meet up with friends and have a place to sit outside. There are places that have outdoor seating but seating is limited. I do not like the vapor store, it is very low class. Earthbeam and the outdoor seating & landscape as well as the Broadway Grill are beacons of style and very welcoming. 123 The area needs to be spruced up. Tao many empty store fronts. Too many tiny clothing stores and nail salons. It 10/1712014 5:31 AM needs a place to shop for clothes and shoes, bit real store like loft. 124 Yoga studio. More restaurant varieties. Wine bar. 10/16/2014 11:37 PM 125 Visual improvements that would add more "charm". Tasteful decorative shop signs which hung out and over part 1 011 6/2014 11:30 PM of the sidewalk (rather than posted flat on a shop or building) could draw positive attention to businesses and if done in good taste could go a long way to making Broadway more cohesive appearance -wise. Calling Broadway an "old town center" might give this location a boost. 126 Better restaurants/dessert stores nice supermarket. 10/16/2014 10:36 PM 127 Updated storefronts and signage Better traffic flow 10!16/2014 10:25 PM 128 High end women's clothing boutlques are boring I hope the businesses that have been there a long time stay If 10/16/2014 10A7 PM only we had Whole Foods 5/48 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 129 Upgrade the esthetics. Encourage face lifts on thr buildings. Need an anchor business -amain reason to go 10/1612014 9:53 PM there. Also, its probably not changeable but the fact that it is a thoroughfare to 101 makes it less desirable to travel on Broadway. Frequent heavy traffic. 130 1) Inadequate maintenance and ordinance enforcement. 2) 2nd class curb appeal. (Especially when compared to 10/16/2014 7:41 PM Burlingame Ave). 3) Too many hair/nail salons and low-end stores. 131 Better restaurants (good food & family friendly) and better stores. Less nail places; Junky stores with weird surf... 10/16/2014 7:36 PM Stores that save us a trip to Burlingame Ave or a mall (birthday cards, gifts, pet store, frozen yogurt) 132 more seating free wife more lower end stores on side streets, too many expensive chains 10/16/2014 7:28 PM 133 1. Consolidate the number and type of businesses on the street. For instance, (1) Japanese restaurant; (1) coffee 10/16/2014 7:13 PM shop (Starbucks—seriously??); (1) nail salon; (1) comer market, etc. 2. Clean up the appearance. It comes across as an after thought. I've spoken to merchants who are looking for space to lease, but refuse to go to Broadway because they are afraid it will hurt their brand. (One told me it appears "rat" infested. Ughl) 3. More thought behind landscaping. 134 More food and wine options 10/16120147:10 PM 135 123 10/16/20147:10 PM 136 re -face some of the older buildings to add fresh look; no more service oriented businesses such as doctors or 8-5 10/16/2014 6:57 PM - we need evening conveniences 137 Too many nail salons and dubious "spas" that seem to be fronts for something else. More variety of high quality 10/16/2014 6:55 PM restaurants, less low quality restaurants. More variety of food offerings in general. Better boutiques. 138 Appears run down, and not enticing. Especially compared to the old and new versions of Burlingame Ave. 10/16/2014 6:26 PM 139 It just seems like a lot of old, sad stores and restaurants. Not very vibrant This is old Burlingame, Budingame 10/16/2014 6:22 PM ave feels like modern and future Burlingame. 140 Better quality restaurants and clothing stores. 10/16/2014 5:44 PM 141 More restaurants and shops! 10/16/2014 5:29 PM 142 Trader Joss Whole Foods Kids clothing/shoe stores 1011612014 5:26 PM 143 more upscale bars and restaurants pacts coffee 10/1612014 5:14 PM 144 It is tired and dated and not at all attractive. No cohesive design element. 10/16/2014 5:11 PM 145 Would be nice to have better quality establishments. Sorry to say but there seems to be a lot of turnover and 10i1612014 5:10 PM - some of the stores seem highly specialized/specific (e.g. dog grooming, thrift stares, etc.). The restaurants are somewhat "tired" — no particularly "buzzworthy" or mainstay type restaurants except perhaps the steak house. I like the concept of Village Host but the pizza quality there isn't that good (sure, it's probably a personal preference). Perhaps the area is too small and can never gain significant traction? A larger anchor store might attract some more? 146 Increased Variety of food Hardware store Theater 10/16/2014 5:10 PM 147 How about "San Francisco" quality restaurants? Maybe a bakery? Maybe tear down that weird building next to 10/1612014 5:02 PM AVR Realty and construct a nice, small town, two story edifice. 148 1. 1 would like to see more anchor stores like Burlingame Ave has. This would draw mon: business and make 1 011 612014 4:56 PM Broadway come alive 2. 1 think Broadway needs a makeover like Burlingame Ave had 3. I wish there was a movie theater or some other draw for the street. This helped revitalize downtown San Mateo 149 More restaurants, clothing stores and bars 10/16/2014 4'54 PM 150 1) more restaurants 2) more clothing stores 3) a butcher/meat market 10/16/2014 4:51 PM 151 Add businesses with broader appeal, renovate it like Burlingame Ave 10/16/2014 4:50 PM 152 Vgg 10/16/20144:49 PM 153 I'd like to see even mare practical businesses, like a real butcher shop, bakery, etc. It would be great if the local 10/16/2014 4:07 PM residents could get most of their shopping done in the district without having to drive. Keep it local! 154 A bakery, spruced up a bit, it looks rather run down, 1 011 612014 4:04 PM ZLN BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 155 x 10/16/2014 3:58 PM 156 Updated restaurants 10/16/2014 3:48 PM 157 Change nothing ! 10/16/2014 3:45 PM 158 some buildings are long neglected 10/16/2014 1 33 PM 159 Better retail stores (for families and kids), more outdoor seating, cleaner sidewalks 10/16/201411:52 AM 160 We need a bakery and hardware store that was lost I imagine due to high rents. I don't like to see empty stores 10/16/2014 11:15 AM that need tenets but rents keep them empty. I don't want to see Broadway becoming Burlingame Avenue. 161 New restaurants and store fronts. 10/16/2014 10:08 AM 162 More dynamic restaurants and stores NO VACANT SPACE THAT SITS DECREPIT FOR YEARS AND YEARS 10/16/2014 9:43 AM More engagement of landlords, they don't seem to be very invested in Broadway bizarrely 163 Less vacancies. More popular shops. Store that rents movies. More grocery/meat shop. 10/16/2014 9:40 AM 164 - Restaurants updated - some look old and run-down, nicer storefronts, no old furniture/antique discount stores. 10/16/2014 9:13 AM 165 More parking Less traffic (which would be difficult since it gets the 101 exit traffic) 10/16/2014 9:05 AM 166 More classes art, swimming, baking, things for kids. It's very close to McKinley and we want to live near 10/16/2014 8:45 AM McKinley and Broadway. Also, more restaurants and grocery stores please. This way we can walk there to get everything done. Maybe a Vietnamese restaurant like Pro or Fresh Rolls or just more choices of good restaurants to eat at. 167 - More restaurants, variety of food types, more artisanal, more specialty (bakery, butcher, fish mart, etc) - Needs 10/15/2014 11:51 PM a wine bar, a place to hang out and listen to music (not Broadway Grill, more intimate) - Love to see it be the Greenwich Village to Burlingame Ave's Madison Ave, showcase the more unique, and vintage side of Burlingame - - Some stores there are out of place and outdated - need to go! 168 Better restaurants _ 10/15/20148:26 PM 169 another anchor tenant - toy store? book store? one of the massage places off of broadway is pretty seedy - looks 10/15/2014 7:24 PM like a brothel 170 1) Better quality restaurants that are still kid friendly. There is variety in type of restaurants (Japanese, Chinese, 10/15/2014 2:34 PM Thai, Itailian, Pizza, etc) but the quality of the food for most of these places do not warrant a repeat visit. I've been to most every restaurant on Broadway and the Korean place (Sesame) and Donut Cafe are the only places that I regularly go back to. If the quality of the restaurant was better, I would frequent Broadway all of the time because it is so close to where I live. Instead, I find myself going to Burlingame Ave all the time since the quality of restaurants are better there. 2) Better Sunday hours for shops and restaurants. Broadway seems completely dead on Sundays. 171 Fewer vacancies in store fronts. 10/15/2014 1:36 PM 172 Better Restaurants More restaurants I wish Preston's stayed open later 10/15/2014 12:42 PM 173 nice building farads, wider sidewalks, less chain stores 10/15/2014 11:01 AM 174 Broadway seems run-down, It could use a major "freshen up" and more convenient parking options. 10/15/2014 10:58 AM 175 Better restaurants cleaner looking more interesting retail 10/15/2014 10:54 AM 176 More Restaurants, young, modem business, a place to walk to and sit outside. BEAUTIFY and more restaurants 10/15/2014 9:41 AM and popular businesses 177 Restaurants are mostly lower quality more restaurants teaching business cleaner sidewalks 10/15/2014 8:28 AM 178 - We need a toddler playground (like the one at Burlingame Ave on Primrose); a self -serve yogurt shop, a grocery 10/14/2014 8:46 PM stare like a Trader Joes and a book stare would also be great additions. 179 Get rid of the parking meters. This will be a "quick win" at nominal cast. Get Prestons to stay open later. A really 10/14/2014 3:55 PM good pizza place 180 More handicap parking spaces and visible pedestrian crossings/speed bumps. Realizing we are currently in a 10/14/2014 3:16 PM draught situation, I would like to see sidewalks kept clean. Trash cans should be sanitized periodically because of the odor. 7/48 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 181 Nothing 10/14/2014 3:00 PM 182 Fewer empty storefronts More clothing stores for women, kids or sport A gourmet store, such as cheese store. 10/14/2014 2:56 PM smoked meets or bakery 183 Keep the two gas stations (ECR and CA Drive) add mechanical repairs to CA Drive gas stations. Add to existing 10/14/2014 2:50 PM street light pales (2) additional lamps. Existing lighting is inadequate. 184 Some of the businesses would do better if they upgrade their street appearance Add a frozen yogurt shop 10/14/2014 2:43 PM 185 Better retail stores More foot traffic Storefronts should be renovated Make packing parallel for a wider street and 10/14/2014 2:39 PM trim the trees to see more of the store fronts 186 Improve parking options, if possible. We would visit more often if parking wasn't so difficult. Make one-way street 10/1412014 8:25 AM signage more obvious. Include Broadway Commercial District parking maps as handouts at businesses, or include them in the emailed city newsletter. 187 I'd like to see fewer vacancies along Broadway—there are some spaces that have been vacant now for what 10/14/2014 7:56 AM seems like over a decade (especially storefronts). Is the rent really that high or are there too many restrictions or ordinances in place to allow businesses to operate out of them? Also, more leniency toward restaurants so they aren't "tethered" to particular spaces if they want to expand or move to a larger space, to allow them to keep their food permits separate from the space they occupy, should they wish to do move. It would also be nice to see the businesses along the side streets somehow get more attention to let people know they're even there. 188 Well stocked hardware store with helpful employees (like the old Ace Hardware at Burlingame Plaza or 10/13/2014 7:40 PM Wisnom's) 189 A bakery 10/13/2014 3:20 PM 190 More clothing/shoes Odds and ends 10/12/2014 2:07 PM 191 Add more visitor boutiques 10/12/2014 2:04 PM 192 Traffic Parking 10/12/2014201 PM 193 Parking - large trucks try to park on Broadway, have a hard time backing out and driving down Broadway Good 10/12/2014 1:58 PM clothing store 194 More stores Newer storesistorefronts (incentivize businesses to remodel) Modernize look 1 011 2/2014 1:53 PM 195 More commercial but keep restaurants and retail Little more parking Have the Pet Parade twiceper year 10/12/2014 149 PM 196 Grocery store (general) Sandwich store (not a chain) 1 011 2/2014 1:30 PM 197 Buildings need to be modernized Make it like Burlingame Avenue Get rid of small businesses thatfew people 10/12/2014 1:25 PM visit 198 More restaurants Less unoccupied space Outdoor eating space 1 011 2/2014 1:18 PM 199 Bakery Need overpass for train like Millbrae or San Bruno Add an Old Navy store Ice cream shop open daily, or 1011212014 1:15 PM a yogurt shop 200 Friendly service Routine maintenance Parking 10/12/2014 1:11 PM 201 More ethnic restaurants. 10/12/2014 1:08 PM 202 bothered by the empty store fronts. constantly hear talk that new restaurants can't get a place on the street. don't 10/12/2014 9:27 AM understand why we don't get more new restaurants on broadway—they all seem to open an Burlingame Ave. 203 None at this time. 10/12/2014 9:18 AM 204 More restaurants. Street scope improvements like budingame ave has. 10/11/2014 9:52 PM 205 It could use an upgrade like Burlingame avenue but not as much. 10/11/201410:06 AM 206 Missing mainstream retail (kids clothing/ shoe store, women's clothes), book store, family friendly eat in/ takeout 10/11/2014 9:57 AM restaurant 207 No more buses, More parking 10/11/2014 6:36 AM 208 Become the terminus for the Old Bayshore Highway/Airport Boulevard; draw in the traffic from the establishments 10/102014 11:41 PM on Burlingame's bay front. MEN BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 209 Higher -end restaurant's with wine bar, will attract corporate/business meals No more cell carrier stores Independent retail clothing shops; unfortunately several have closed 210 Additional grocery stare, a full service hardware store and another general good store. 211 1. The look of the shops and restaurants (way too dated) 2. The variety of shops 3. I'd like to see a more cohesive look versus seeing an ugly 1970s building next to pretty spanish style building. 212 More places to sit on the sidewalk, especially when eating ice cream. I like the outdoor seating on Bud Ave. A big family -friendly restaurant like a pub with a back garden. Slightly more modern restaurants (all price ranges) A higher -end hair salon. A park with picnic tables and a gathering area and maybe a kids playground. I know it's hard to actually remove buildings for this, but this would be nice, especially right on Broadway Ave. with a short fence. Nando's peri -ped chicken restaurant (they are expanding in the US). 213 Better signage for drivers about location of parking lots Cleaner sidewalks A bakery. Is there a zoning or permitting situation about number of kitchens or something keeping this from happening? 214 More vegetarian food choices, Sproutz Ritz 5 and 10 cent store, Hardware Store 215 - better stores (retail and restaurants; better chain stores similar to Burlingame Ave; missing brand name / popular anchor tenant that attracts business (besides Starbucks)) - better traffic control (sometimes hard to see pedestrians crossing), traffic moves very slow, which is a little strange coming off freeway exit - 216 height restrictions on buildings. It would be great to knock down existing building to build residential over retail. Retail suites are to small for any type of retail that the locals really want. we need bigger retail suits for larger restaurants. no more bars but restaurants that have liqueur would be nice. 217 Karate or An after school type activity like kumon or taekwondo 218 1 like the upgrade that was recently done with benches and easy to walk intersections Encourage building owners to enhance their fascades (architecture[ decorative detailing added or artful painting, for example) and make signage easier to see/read/view. 219 Better restaurants and more retail stores with better quality items 220 lots of traffic (due to freeway exit), fresher facade for businesses, 221 More parking More variety in restaurants More apparel/footwear stored 222 More trendy stores, newer better kept restaurants 223 1) close off the base of Broadway at California Dr to through traffic from the freeway. There is too much traffic up and down Broadway and it is dangerous for pedestrians and there seems to be a number of drivers breaking traffic laws on a regular basis (U turn in the middle of Broadway, driving through crosswalks with pedestrians) 2) keep the zoning on Broadway to smaller retail spaces, no big box stares or chain stores 3) add a fish/ meat market 224 More Parking More Parking More parking 225 Less cars 226 Allow more restaurants to open. Make the overall street scene more inviting. Make some of the older stores update there store front. 227 .'.'fional parking, especially for the farmers market grocery store -more outdoor seating options at restaurant/cafes that are dog friendly -Parking meters that accept debit/credit card 228 none 229 modernize the storefronts/ look feel 230 No more nail salons 231 1) Parking improvements (more of it!) 2) More variety of stores (no more spas or office spaces!) 3) Farmers Market, more community events, etc. 4) CalTrain access M -F! 232 1 would love to see a small independent movie theater there. Something cultural to do other than just dining or shopping. Also it would be an ideal location for affordable senior housing as things are close to get to. 233 BETTER EVENING LIGHTING MORE STORE FRONTS WITH ACTUAL BUSINESS WORKIGN 234 Better traffic control near the train tracks. Buildings need facelift.

Lease more of the spaces - too much dark. Side streets 10/9/2014 4:29 PM need more help! Nothing 10/9/2014 4:29 PM How about a few restaurants of top quality instead of places where food is microwaved or re -heated? How about 10/9/2014 4:25 PM a gourmet burger joint? Maybe a fancy hot dog store? ((Greedy landlords need to price their rental rates at market value and not at some pie -in -the -sky rate ... and while we're at it, why not use eminent domain and have the city take over that ugly, vacant building at 1199 Broadway?)) less nail salons, less restaurants offering asian cuisine and more retail 10/9/2014 4:22 PM Need a Bakery Need a Frozen yogurt shop Need another Deli type shop - 10/9/2014 4:13 PM no loitering 10/912014 4:13 PM The 101 exit to Broadway combined with Caltrain makes it almost impossible on some evenings to visit 10/9/2014 4:12 PM downtown. 1. Free parking / more parking 2. Grade separation from Cal train 3. Less through traffic 1. Easier Access for Bicycles - dangerous to cross at camino, especially at ECR turn right onto Broadway. dangerous to ride down Broadway with kids in street, few places to easily park bicycles. Need to clear obstructions around comers, so that drivers can easily see people waiting to cross. 2. "Open" up street, businesses. I.e.like the seating area next to II Piccolo. The corner seating is too close to busy traffic. patio in front of Starbucks. Encourage more open windows like II Piccolo, fewer dark(ened) windows like Behans or even Village Hast. 3. More food/drink, fewer nail salons Remove some hair and nail parli Put in a hardware store Make Laguna Street one way from Lincoln toward Broadway Better food/take-out Looks junky/old More life Hardware Store High -End Clothing Juice Place: T -Pumps, Yummy Yogurt 1. More diversity of retailers, like bringing back the hardware store and adding some galleries or craft stores. 2. Better traffic reduction or monitoring of people cruising the strip at night. Sometimes when I'm thereat night there seems to be a different element that shows up that likes to drive faster and make frequent trips up and down the street. 3. Larger sidewalks and updated landscaping. More variety of good, moderately -priced restaurants Poor lighting - looking back from EI Camino, the entire street looked so dark it is scary. The poor lighting also makes it hard to see pedestrians darting out from the cars. 1. Better restaurants. 2. More bike friendly. 3. Less emphasis on gas stations & financial institutions. Restaurants The traffic flow has been terrible for years (will be corrected) See fewer empty storefronts The quality of many of the stores is low (marginal); businesses with apparel have short life Would love a frozen yogurt place (Burlingame Avenue has several) Reasonable priced quality boutique/small clothing shop More street seating amenities Creperie, Indian Curry, smoothie Would like to see more retail shops of Potpourri quality; more clothing stores that are non thrift or consignment, hardware store,grocery store, book store. Its ugly and low rent looking aesthetically challenged. Less empty stores. Incent businesses to open. Parking stinks. 10/9/2014 1:49 PM 10/9120141:35 PM 10/9/2014 9:32 AM 10/9/2014 9:28 AM 10/9/2014 9.25 AM 101812014 1 0:56 PM 10/8/2014 8:28 PM 10/8/2014 6:50 PM 10/8/2014 2.55 PM 10/8/2014 2.28 PM 10/8/2014 2:25 PM 10/8/2014 219 PM 10/8/2014 11:16 AM 1015:51 PM 256 Trendier women's clothing boutiques that are well priced (e.g. Elie Boutique was fantastic). More family -friendly 1 017/201 4 5:48 PM restaurants like Big Joe's and Crepevine (which is on Burlingame Avenue). Limit the number of nail salons, cellular companies and increase mom and pop stores like Booksellers, food purveyors, home design/lifestyle retailers. 257 Not much 10(/12014 5:42 PM 258 it needs a facelift; needs to be more current More good shopping for women's clothing 10/7/2014 5:40 PM 10/48 259 260 261 262 263 264 265 266 267 268 269 270 271 272 273 274 275 276 277 278 279 280 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY Sidewalks and street should be redone like Burlingame Avenue More office space and high-end stores More cuisine choice Parking More variety of shops - local preferred Year-round farmers market Less vacancies - there are so many. Makes it look really bad. More attention/money put into the area - it feels so neglected compared to Burlingame Avenue. Broadway Burlingame sign - update to a more modern version and move it to past the Wells Fargo building to the east. Remove street parking spaces near Chevron. n/a More retail/shopping, Cleaner storefronts. Smoother traffic near California and the railroad tracks. Clothing store. Bakery. Encourage property upgrades by removing regulatory hurdles. Encourage investment by removing regulatory hurdles. Loosen restdctions on business and properties. Let the marketplace decide what is best for business mix and investment. Better shopping. More restaurants. A facelift of Broadway - it looks dated and worn down. add some clothing stores add a hardware store add a bakery 1. Limit the same type of merchants; i.e. seven nail salons, 4 used clothing stores 2. Boutique and charming style shops; i.e. bakery, butcher, restaurants with contemporary food - not just ethnic 3. Curb appeal - stone/tile sidewalks, bump outs for restaurants with hedges and plants so you do not feel like you are dining with cars, flowers that are maintained and replanted sidewalks are narrow but here's limited space to improve that better traffic and parking control (or enforcement), cars driving too fast or going wrong way down one way streets better looking buildings! More eating establishments. More foot traffic. A face lift on the building storefronts. Easier parking, less congestion, easier access to freeway Walgreens is nice and I would not necessarily like to see if gone, but do not add any more big -box stores... Keep the small feel (so we can continue to have the Pet Parade and fun things like that- its why people live in Burlingame... for the community feel) Need more trendy restaurants like Delflnall Shops needed to be remodeled with newer and trendy looks. Needs a great bakery!!! 10/7/2014 5:37 PM 10/7/2014 5:33 PM 10f7/2014 5:30 PM 1017/2014 5:25 PM 10/7/2014 12:52 PM 101712014 12:48 PM 1017/2014 12:42 PM 101712014 12:39 PM 10/7/2014 12:34 PM 10/7/2014 11:01 AM 1017/2014 10:28 AM 10/7/201410:10 AM 10/7/2014 10:04 AM 10(7/2014 6.15 AM 10/6/2014 11:45 PM 10/612014 11:01 PM 10/612014 7:21 PM An Indian fusion restaurant such as Curry Up Now -would be great! 10/6/2014 1:38 PM More restaurants small restaurants! 10/6/2014 12:53 PM There are currently limited food and drink options - would like more variety. 10/6/2014 10:46 AM better restaurants bakery get did of door shop, lamp shop get rid of Behan's bar 10/6/2014 8.13 AM Hardware store, miss our old one. Although I didn't use it often in the last few years it was convenient when 10/5/2014 3:42 PM needed. More tags/tickets given for mid street u turns into parking spaces. Amazing h• �- many I see while driving on Broadway. 281 Hardware store. Stores open on weekends. Bubble milk tea store. 10/5/2014 2:45 PM 282 Caltrain service at Broadway station during the week! More restaurant variety More clothing options, particularly 10/5/2014 2:09 PM open after 6pm and/or on Sundays 283 a better system for watering the sidewalk plants. i often walk by planters with dead flowers. I also like the outdoor 1 01512 01 4 12:54 PM restaurant seating, and I think that there should be more offered. I would like to see the parking meters gone, and a return to the 2 -hour parking limits, like Millbrae offers. 11/48 12/48 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 284 I'd like a more modern updated mom and pop shops. Love the Wine store. A Cheese store next door would be 10/5/2014 11:37 AM great! So would a wine bar. Magda Luna is great. Fresh sustainable food. A sustainable breakfast place would be great! Middle Eastern places are good. Get rid of Subway. The smell coming out of there is sick. LOVE the EarthBeam corner. Less nail salons. Better restaurants... too many Asian restaurants. Boutiques are not good. I always say that Broadway can be a specialty street with the right vendors. Mentally stable people would be great too, Not mentioning names but! I have thought about opening my own business on Broadway one day when I leave the corporate world.:) 285 More diverse and quality dining establishments More emphasis on popular dining and retail More cohesiveness 10/5/2014 10:29 AM and balance among the tenants. Full Service Dining—> Retail Office Space —> Lunch/Limited Service Food Establishments More Retail and Dining Traffic--> More Parking 286 Maybe some new restaurants, or a nice neighborhood bar. And, a full service grocery store. Install stop signs at 10/5/2014 9:01 AM all intersections. That would be a great safety improvement for pedestrians and it would allow cars to make safe turns onto Broadway from side streets. 287 Outdoor drinking and dining options More than one pub Hardware store with gardening supplies 10/4/2014 8:41 PM 288 Less mant pact shops 10/4/2014 7:12 PM 289 Make it more vibrant/face lift Clean streets More parking Better signs of parking location 10/4/2014 2:58 PM 290 . .......... ._.... 1. New sidewalks. 2. More restaurants. 3. Better parking on Broadway 10/4/2014 12:27 PM 291 terrible traffic! backed up lights getting onto Broadway. Better independent groceries or prepared food stores. 10/3/2014 10:34 PM 292 Clean sidewalks, storefronts improved & fewer empty shops 10/3/2014 8:43 PM 293 Would love to see another "anchor" business- something that would drive more business to the district. Not sure 10/3/2014 1:45 PM exactly what that would be but more clothing stores would be nice. 294 Bakery codes on business and store front appearances reduce mall -like buildings more street flowers 10/3/2014 10:35 AM 295 no parking meters 10/3/20149.17 AM 296 Cleaned up. Seems a little dingy. 10/3/2014 3:27 AM 297 Butcher Bakery More trees Fewer doggie salons 10/2/201417:50 PM 298 More clothing shops, better side walks and over all ambiance 10/2/201411:11 PM 299 There is not enough to draw me to Broadway on a more thank weekly basis. Although there are small businesses 10/2/2014 10:53 PM I like to support many do seem to lack creativity or innovation or that something special to draw me there often. I would also worry that if it got too popular it would be hard to park or drive through to get to the freeway or home from the freeway. 300 No more nail salons! Higher quality retail stores, not just consignment Need a place to shop and eat 10/2/2014 10:48 PM 301 more restaurants or eateries of various types more updated shops more lively events like street fairs 10/2/2014 9:49 PM 302 Better restaurants; Kid friendly businesses and entertainment options; stricter animal waste ordinance and 10/2/2014 9:48 PM enforcement 303 We need: A place to buy chicken and meat (a gourmet butchertgrocer), a larger, better stocked Walgreen, a 10/2/2014 9:13 PM hardware store, 304 Lanscaping, modern store fronts, the outdated broadway sign 10/2/2014 8:53 PM 305 More relevant stores - a hardware store, a bakery, more restaurants & csfes,more nice but not overly priced 101212014 7:42 PM women's clothing stores, less nail salons - they are just everywhere!I! 306 seems a bit outdated sidewalks are old widened walkways with more greens cape better outdoor seating for 10/2/2014 7:23 PM restaurants fish, meat and poultry / butcher shop 307 Independent women clothes & accessory stores 10/2/2014 6:47 PM 308 1.increase the time on meters. I have received several tickets even though I have had money in the meter. If I get 10/2/2014 6:41 PM nails done and than grab a cup of coffee. It's over an hour 2. Would love to see some larger beautiful commercial buildings with residential on top. 3. Add more public transit to the bay 309 More variety of restaurants, more high-end stores like Burlingame Ave. 10/2/2014 6:06 PM 12/48 310 311 312 313 314 315 316 317 318 319 320 321 322 323 324 325 326 327 328 329 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY HAVE TO THINK FURTHER ABOUT THAT. dean up building fronts, awnings. They look like they haven't been painted/repaired in decades don't build ugly strip mail cheap construction places like corner of Broadway and Laguna make it more bike friendly - guide the commuters who aren't going to stop to other streets and make it safer for people to walk/bike down street try a street closure oncelmonth juloct for farmers market, entertainment, etc. - could even feature school fundraiser events, etc. More unique businesses such as Pot Pourri. More restaurants. More resturants less empty buildings More restaurant selection Just fix the block up a little more Needs better restaurants and stores! The food is terrible (with the exception of magda Luna which is awesome!) would also love to see better shops and boutiques Needs to be re -done like Burlingame Avenue. Needs more retail shops. Retail shops on Broadway or uninteresting. Additional restaurants with valet parking Fewer nail salons Structures parking garage Fewer random stores _ More parking—not sure where that would be though more interesting shops & restuarants Occupants in all stores A Bakery A bookstore more restaurants, bakery, juice bars, yogurt shops. More parking, maybe a multi level parking structure. Reopen the caltram station. Allow karate studios, educational centers, art teaching studios. Kinko's Fedex. 1) More exceptional restaurants and eating/drink venues.. NOT MORE food chains (ie Subway) 2) Face lift similar to Burlingame Ave, but still maintain old town feel 3) Farmers market once a week Street scalping, outdoor dining/coffee Variety of merchants needed — useful stores like a hardware store, stationery store. A book store would be nice. A family restaurant like Crepevine or a great salad place would be a nice addition. Some of the stores don't feel like they really have much foot traffic and don't bring much life to the neighborhood. Would be great ff could figure out how to make the street more of a place where people would walk around rather than just park and go into a store and then leave. More restaurants More practical kind of shops - hardware store, ups store 1.There are still way too many nail and hair salons- lacking alternate retail options. 2.Many storefronts are dated and bland (the awful green carpet in the bank, the sports memorabilia corner business, the dry cleaner shop, even the floral shop looks tacky -I've never gone to any of these businesses- Very little charm factor on the street - one outdoor pot had ugly fake flowers in it -why bother? Could be factor in the multiple vacancies. 3.Outdoor sealing options-parklets as in SF would be great to see -there are enough parking options to remove some from Broadway street at each end. Would enhance community and chane. 4.Would like to see the empty store spaces filled- a book store, apparel, better restaurants - GREAT SELECTION OF CASUAL RESTAURANTS MORE PARKING FREE PARKING CLEANING SIDEWALKS LOWER SPEED LIMIT PARKING STRUCTURE BAKERY KIDS EDUCATIONAL TUTORING KARATE STUDIO NO MORE NAIL SALONS More/different eating choices, particularly dinner. Useful retail stores, stores that someone would actually frequent. 330 Get rid of gas station on corner of EI Camino, get better quality restaurants, build a packing garage 331 Some of the large empty spaces would make nice artist workspaces, and would tie into first Friday, like in San Mateo. A nicer dell than the one there. A community bookstore a la Kepler's in Menlo Park. A better use of the space down at both ends of the block --the gas stations on both ends are not inviting and the area around the hacks, and the freeway entrance are a confusing mess. 332 1. Remove the moratorium on food establishmentsl!I 2. Several storefronts have become non -inviting _either looking rundown or dirty & In some cases both Example: Prestons Candy 3. Increased cleaning of streets & sidewalks 4. 1 would like a real Bakery on Broadway 13/48 10/2/2014 5:24 PM 10/2/2014 5:06 PM 10/2/2014 5:03 PM 10/2/2014 4:59 PM 10/2/2014 4:53 PM 10/2/2014 4:49 PM 10/2/2014 4:49 PM 10/2/2014 8:25 AM 101112014 5:08 PM 10/1/2014 4:05 PM 10/1/2014 1:52 PM 10/1/2014 11:56 AM 10/112014 9:49 AM 10/1/2014 6:45 AM 9/30/2014 10:16 PM 9/30/2014 8:49 PM 9/30/2014 7:17 PM 9/30/2014 7:06 PM 9/30/2014 4:17 PM 9/3012014 2:07 PM 9/30/2014 1:43 PM 9/30/2014 10:17 AM 9/30/2014 10:12 AM BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 333 More and better restaurants 9/30/2014 9:51 AM 334 Can't think of anything in particular 9/29/2014 11:54 PM 335 1. REMOVE THE MORATORIUM ON RESTAURANTS1111 Broadway has a very limited selection of restaurants - 9/29/2014 8:52 PM allow more to come in. For example, it would benefit greatly from a true bakery, a higher end wine bar, etc. 2. ENFORCE the permit parking - residents have paid $50 per year for permits but it is not regularly being enforced. 336 traffic seems dangerous as a pedestrian, too many pan handlers, seems run down and needs a face lift. 9/29/2014 8:23 PM 337 Remove all the little stores that sell junk and put nice stores like Burlingame Ave Some of the buildings looked 9/29/2014 6:53 PM really old and beat up. You can tell the restaurants/businesses and new and have remodeled 338 More different variety of food and shops 9/29/2014 6:17 PM 339 Can't think of anything. 9/29/20144.45 PM 340 - I'd love to see a sports bar/restaurant there as well as a bakery or other food offerings in addition to the current 9/29/2014 3:09 PM selection. - There are a number of locations open, it would be great to have them filled with viable options to bring a bit ore vitality to the location. - The storefronts are older, please continue to complement them with plans and trees. It doesn't have to look exactly like Burlingame avenue, investing in these give it a more welcomingliinviting feel. 341 more restaurants may be nice. Just to see full store fronts would be great, no vacancies. 9/29/2014 2:57 PM 342 A Peel's Coffee & Tea location. 9/29/2014 2:35 PM 343 Some food establishments for the younger kids. More outside seating Overall facelift -modernize it a bit. 9/29/2014 2:32 PM 344 Would love some more diverse retailers - like Elie - and more restaurants. It's sad to see all the empty 9/29/2014 2.24 PM commercial space I 345 More parking 9/29/2014 1:58 PM 346 Nicer street, better restaurants, better stores (especially clothing stores that aren't all for used items) 9/29/2014 11:52 AM 347 Quirky often empty clothinginicknack stores at ECR and of street are not very good use of square footage... 9/29/2014 11:13 AM generally ECR end of street is least appealing Entertainment and Ace Hardware -type business or two Better sidewalk seating for restaurants 348 Better physical appearance. It is not a place you want to stroll around on. Why close the street to traffic and treat 9/29/2014 10:40 AM the street as a plaza with outdoor seating, lighting, good variety of restaurants, coffee shops, book store, etc. Make people want to come there as a destination rather than just have a place in mind and then leave. 349 More space to sit outdoors; more parking (but not on Broadway, nearby), bike racks; 9/29/2014 1014 AM 350 There are no destination locations that are supplemented with the opportunity to walk around and shop at other 9/29,2014 9:48 AM - stores. It's not a friendly walking area with open areas and the option to hang out. Just go and get something at one store and leave. 351 clean the streets, sidewalks the garbage containers on the street leaves stench for hours fewer through truck 9129/2014 9.38 AM traffic no bars—i.e. alcohol without food 352 3 9129/2014 9:38 AM 353 A bit more clean up - compared with the fabulous job on Burlingame, it now looks pretty decrepit. A stronger mix 9/29/2014 9:10 AM of restaurants would make it more of a strollable destination. 354 Quality bakery Well supplied and organized hardware Office supply/stationary shop 9,/2911014 9:01 AM 355 Encourage a more dynamic mix of stores. Better restaurants, kids activities, some destination retail more like 9/29/2014 8:49 AM Burlingame Ave, fashionable boutiques, etc. Look at Castro St in Mountain View and how they turned the street into an outdoor space with seating on the sidewalks. When we walk down the street, we speculate about the odd zoning/city laws that must keep this eclectic mix of stores in business. Not eclectic in a good way— how many random odds+ends and dated clothing stores do you need in a street? We've lived a short walk away for years, we love Burlingame Ave, but we've only ever found reason to go into haf -a-dozen stores on Broadway. 14/48 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 356 This is such a tough question.... I'd love more clothing and shopping stores but the rents are so high I don't know 9/29/2014 7:21 AM how a small shop can stay afloat unless they charge super high prices which I wouldn't be able to afford .... I loved Ellie and was sorry to see them go - I'd love a jamba juice or other place for healthy variety of food/drink I'd like the lights on the trees to work and and I'd like the businesses to work together rather than some of the weirdness that happens among merchants I feel if some of the shops and windows were refreshed it would make a big difference - Toy/candy shop needs a refresh - Glad to see Kim's is updating 'spa elysse' great improvements in there business - 357 Empty storefronts being filled—there are four or five empty stores right now. It seems that Broadway could use 9/28/2014 11:00 PM taller trees. I recognize that's there's not much sidewalk space for these. Not much can be done about the oversized vehicles parked in such a way that it's hard to get around them—[ drive a commercial van, and I sometimes have to wait for opposing traffic to clear to get around a parked vehicle. 358 359 360 361 362 363 364 365 366 367 368 369 370 371 372 373 374 375 376 377 378 379 Too many chain stores More and Better restaurants, Card and Stationary shop, hardware store Upgrade the storefronts and interiors so it's not so run down! Get more restaurants and higher -end boutique shops into the empty spaces Give it the love you give to Burlingame Avenue! Everything. New and better restaurants, better options for shopping for adults and children. Clothing/ shoes, books, house wears. more green/colorful landscaping I am sad to see so many vacant storefronts. Some of the storefronts feel a bit neglected, old. Others are inviting and warm. I think 11 Piccolo and Earthbeam are welcoming and add warmth to the street, and Broadway Grill has given life to their section of the street. The city needs to pay more attention to Broadway. Maintenance on the street, such as cleaning the streets, has really decreased. It needs more neighborhood stores like a bakery, butcher and place to buy nice cards. There should be more restaurants. The ones we have are great but more would be nice to add to the choices. There should be more community events like the Pet Parade. Freshen the exterior of buildings, sidewalks and parking. I would like to see less comercial trucks. 1. More unique clothing stores 2. Family friendly, pub type restaurant & bar 3. More parking 1streerscape 2. parking 3. upraded buidlings Better parking. More new good restaurants. A good market that makes good prepared food. Need better restaurants Need better retail stores Parking can improve Widen sidewalks Keep concreat sidewalks (no fancy sidewalks,like Burlingame ave) Close Broadway to cars,let folks walk,eat Widen sidewalks No fancy sidewalks,concreat only No cars.let folks walk with out getting hit by a car and let them enjoy there food with out the fumes from car exhaust.

Hard to tum to Broadway from Carolan ave because of railroad crossing Insufficient parking Local traffic mixed with cars going to EI Camino.

Get rid of the offices on the corner of laguna and broadway. 2. Add good stores like perhaps a bakery or ups store, craft store for kids. More restaurants/eateries. Places to sit outside and enjoy, more places that encourage people to safely hang out. Maybe a small town park or parklets even. More upscale shopping or restaurants. The downtown area lacks a vibe. More available metered parking, even a parking structure adjacent to Broadway. Brighter streetlamps on Broadway and in metered parking lots .... do not feel safe walking in parking lots at night. Somehow slow down traffic on Broadway - too many inconsiderate drivers. Perhaps a STOP sign or two property placed may help. Something to attract me to the area. Discount coupons... Like a Broadway 10% off night free parking Dead space that has not been vacated literally for years — really appalling Dramatic difference in look/feel relative to Burlingame Ave. — would be good to see similar upgrade in atheistic Terrible number of nail salons, etc. — would really appreciate support that brought more restaurants and interesting retail stores to the area. Bakery, Meat Market, Hardware store. 1. Less vacancy 2. ??? Clean the building's facades Add parking facilities 9/26/2014 4:55 PM some anchor stores to help small retailers draw more customers, abakery, free 2 -hour parking 9/26/2014 4:46 PM Need for a nice home/gift store that is in the medium-high end category (not too, too expensive). Some of the 9/2612014 4.11 PM store fronts need a face lift. There is some fabulous architecture and it's hidden with ugly store fronts The building that houses Magdalena, etc. is a HUGE eye sore. Farmer's market? I think they used to have a mid -week. Maybe would need more marketing. 1 -Create an artisinal feel - like old parts - good bakery, butcher, cheese shop, flower shop, dessert, cafes. There is nothing like this in neighboring towns. This would be a huge asset to Burlingame. 2 -Update the aesthetics - more trees/plant. It looks very run dawn and seedy 3 -Take away that ugly, out of date, seedy "Broadway" sign. It makes our beautiful town look cheap. 4- Need much higher end restaurants that people want to go to meet friends for breakfast, lunch, dinner, drinks. Need higher some restaurants with fun, higher end feel - like the city. With some outdoor dining/patios. 1. Higher quality restaurants 2. Fewer nail salons 3. Better parking Better quality restaurants, more retail shopping, more progressive and clean. Better selection of restaurants that families can go to on a regular basis. More comfortable seating, fair prices, entertainment, some outside seating with cleaner streets. The "look" of the street could certainly be updated, similar to Burlingame Ave. The street has many good businesses, but atmosphere is more run-down rather than vibranticlean/fresh. More parking, more food establishment choices , Free parking, more events, slow down traffic, disgusting sidewalks, maintain parking lots, open train station for weekday service. Have free 1 hour parking for slow days a week. Better restaurants - would LOVE to be able to walk down for nice dinner. We eat on Burlingame Ave or in San Mateo at least a couple of times a week. Too many not -very -nice nail and hair salons. Wouldn't mind decent ones - go to the Ave for this. I've walked in and back out of nail places here as they don't look clean! Easier parking, cleaner. Clean up the buildings, better parking, better restaurants, better clothing shops . to like to see more of a mix of chain and privately owned 1) We could REALLY use a restaurant/beer & wine place that is more upscale than Behan's & Village Host, but less fancy than Rocca & Broadway Grill. In other words, a place to go get a beer or glass of wine, food, the family could eat there, but a fun atmosphere for couples too. Something similar to Grapevine, or Urban Bistro, but perhaps more like a craft brew -pub with some good food choices. 2) We need a frozen yogurt place, with later hours. For everyone to enjoy. 3) 1 don't see how clothing stores or lighting stores are ever going to make it on Broadway. 9/26;2014 11:10 PM 9/26/2014 10:12 PM 9/26/2014 10:04 PM 9/26/2014 9:31 PM 9/26/2014 9:07 PM 9/26/2014 BA 1 PM 9/262014 7:45 PM 9/26/2014 6:46 PM 9/26/2014 6:09 PM 926/2014 5:37 PM IMe1 Mew., 9/26/2014 3:23 PM 9/26/2014 3:13 PM 9/2612014 2:36 PM 9/26/2014 2'15 PM 9/26/20141:40 PM 9/262014 1:39 PM 9/26/2014 1:33 PM 9/26/20141:26 PM 9/26/2014 12:33 PM 9/2612014 12:30 PM 17/48 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 403 we could use an artisan coffee shop or roaster 9/26/2014 12:09 PM 404 It would be nice to have a stationary store and hardware store. 9/26/2014 1157 AM 405 Add a parking structure behind the street Add a bookstore SLOW down the traffic! 9/26/2014 11:14 AM 406 Improved sidewalks (similar to Burlingame Ave.) with bench seating. Better and more trees and flowers (Hanging 9/26/2014 11:01 AM flower baskets would add a beautiful touch). An effective SIDEWALK CLEANING program. Less nail shops, and add a hardware store and a bakery. Keep tree lights always lit at night. 407 Fewer hair and nail salons more parking no cheap mobile food coaches more parking. 9/261201410:57 AM 408 Cleaner sidewalks 9/26/2014 10:55 AM 409 There are a lot of old store fronts that haven't been refreshed. To be honest it's a little depressing. I've heard 91262014 10:54 AM there is a lot of push back to retailers who would like to have presence on Broadway. Strange that there is a hesitation to allow chains come in yet there is a Subway and Starbucks? Not that I mind. I would personally like to see more such establishments.. The small businesses are charming but there needs to be more of a reason to shop Broadway on a regular basis. how about a larger grocery store? How are there so many empty storefronts and ones I found random (sports memorabilia? lighting?) It would be really great to see Broadway get a major face lift. I live so close and wish there was more to do when I strolled down he street 410 less vacant spaces more restaurants and retail shops, particularly clothing would be nice if the sidewalks were 9/26/2014 10:38 AM cleaner 411 n1a 9126/2014 10:38 AM 412 could use minor face lift but not like Burlingame ave. Broadway is not big enough to handle that kind of traffic nor 9/26/2014 9:10 AM should it be 413 Maybe another restaurant.. perhaps remodeling the eyesore of a building at 1199 Broadway... more parking._ 9/26/2014 8:59 AM 414 Good bakery Better street maintenance 9/26/2014 8:31 AM 415 There are too many gas stations for such a short block. Not very convenient for public transportation: wish 9/26/2014 8:26 AM CalTrain stopped there all the time (so please do not stop the CalTrain altogether). 416 Make Broadway a one way street to ease traffic flow Add more restaurants Add a book store 9/26/2014 8:25 AM 417 Better pedestrian crossings 9126/2014822 AM 418 - More open public space for outdoor dining, small playground, etc. to make it a community gathering place. - 9/26/2014 8:04 AM Unfortunately, the _quality_ of the restaurants on Broadway generally leave something to be desired - need a few options that appeal to the younger crowd. - Would love an art house movie theater in town (if commercially viable, not interested in a publicly subsidized one) - there aren't really any good options between Stonestown down to Palo Alto! - Additional office space to drive traffic during weekdays, Off -the -Grid moved closer to drive shopping/retail traffic on Thursdays. 419 a few more retails businesses 9/26/2014 7:57 AM 420 Area where people can hang out, Beautify the street, 9/26/2014 7:24 AM 421 More retail. Better parking. 9/26/2014632 AM 422 Wish It wasn't as busy from the freeway. I Stay away from the area at certain times (dinner). Another 9/26/2014 5:45 AM bar/resturant that is kid friendly (out door sitting). Update...just seems old. 423 More resturants more resturants 9/2512014 11:04 PM 424 - better restaurant options. Right now, there lacks at crifiral mass of good restaurants to entice more visitors. - 9/252014 10:49 PM more grocery store options with better full-service selections. A Whole Foods equivalent would be Ideal. 425 More restaurants Is a must. 9/25/2014 10:44 PM 426 - New restaurants. Fill some long term vacancies. 9/25/2014 10:24 PM 427 ***-*+More and diverse restaurants. Good Chinese, Thai, etc. Magdaluna and sesame are great additions!! Less 9/25/2014 10:22 PM vacant real estate that has sat empty for long periods (what is the issue here??) More focus on stores that appeal to a changing demographic -families with kids 428 More stores to fill empty spaces 9/25/2014 10:09 PM 17/48 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 429 Better parking Terrible traffic flow Q Broadway and California Fewer vacant spaces — prefer thriving feel _ 9/25/2014 10:03 PM 430 9125/2014 10:02 PM 431 It would be great if there were some better restaurant options and maybe some home goods stores. There isn't 9/25/2014 9:55 PM really anything to draw you to Broadway. 432 Better/more boutique clothes stores. More restaurants specifically with outside curb seating. A more updated yet 9/25/2014 9:51 PM classic/uniform look to the street and businesses. 433 -Better Restaurants, more retail shops, more charts. I think you can keep it quaint but it should represent 9/25/2014 9:45 PM Burlingame in a more meaningful way. Burlingame Ave and Broadway feel like the are in two different cities. I am not sure why we cannot get it updated like the recent Burlingame Ave product. 434 Broadway has become, in my view, Burlingame's equivalent of a decomposing beached whale that nobody 9/2512014 9:42 PM knows what to do with. The buildings are outdated with deferred maintenance, run-down storefronts, and high vacancy. I think Broadway concedes the big -box, big name shops that Burlingame Ave has. I envision Broadway to have a similar feel like Chestnut Street (SF) or Union Street (again like the one in SF). Small, funky little restaurants offering unique and fresh new variety of food, and boutiques with charming and interesting storefronts. We're being over run with MASSAGE PARLORS AND FOOT MASSAGE PLACES. What is up with that???? Why is the train station still vacant? Get a nice restaurant in the train depot and bring some foot traffic to the area. what are the opportunity costs missed by continuing to leave it vacant? Several years now since Brio left and it is STILL vacant. The hotels across the highway are brimming with travelers who'd rather not eat hotel food, are looking for a nice place to eat, to meet and visit, to listen to some good live jazz. give them a reason to walk over that beautiful new overpass and hang out on Broadway. Broadway Grill, Burlingame Market have created some interest and foot traffic in the neighborhood. Village Host and Preston's also have the night idea too by bringing in a loyal following of locals. they're neighborhood staples. Capitalize on this. Presently, this is street has no energy or vibrancy. its an amalgamation of stores and storefronts with out any soul. It's not sure what its trying to be. RESTORE the storefronts. the surrounding area is crawling with kids now yet there's nowhere for families to go. Restore the storefronts. Return Broadway to its 40's and 50's charm. Focus on unique, flower - shops, small art galleries, restaurants and entertainment that encourages the local foot traffic (including the - thousands of hotel rooms across the highway) to enjoy a memorable cup of coffee, a lunch, a cozy dinner with friends or a delicious desert with your little ones. 435 Higher -quality restaurants 9/25/20149:36 PM 436 Concentrate more on keeping old traditions alive, i.e., holiday decorations, themes, etc. our children aremkissing 9/25/2014 9:29 PM out big time! 437 the restaurants are terrible and its a shame that the merchants block a more diverse set of there's such an 9/25/2014 9 29 PM opportunity to bring in higher quality restaurants that are family friendly and provide quick grab and go food that is fresh and economical. protectionism has never worked - please stop allowing the existing merchants to act in this - manner. PLEASE DO SOMETHING! 438 1. More and better restaurants 2. Nicer retail shops 3. Classier signage on some of the storefronts 9/25/2014 9'25 PM 439 1. More and better (current / not so dated) restaurants and shopping options 2. Refresh the storefronts / buildings 9/25/2014 9:03 PM - many have a very dated! ran down ! not well maintained look and feel. 3. Better parking options 440 Appearance... it is "dirty." The entrance from 101 has so much potential to draw hotel patrons, yet it is ugly and 9/25/2014 8:57 PM the purple gas station is horrible. Lots of trashy storesivenues which I will not go into. Example is the resale store at the top, nurmerous dirty nail salons, Lars which harbor lots of drunks on weekends and nights, and the random storefronts like the one across from Village Host. Restaurant quality is horrible compared to BUrling: me Avenue. The only restaurant we will visit is Village Host. What about Trader Joe's ? What about Bames and Noble? What about something like Cafe Sorter in Menlo Park? What about an open air restaurant like those on IJNiveristy in Palo Alto? 441 (1) Retain stores that are less dated, more relevant to slightly younger shoppers (2) A wine bar that serves great 9/25/2014 8:54 PM wines, light appetizers (the Press Club, District in SF might be good comparables) (3) A really good bakery, like Satura Cakes in Los Altos—heck, seed they might be interested in opening a new location in Burlingame (please?!) 442 No more nail salons, ciliates studios or office space. And please get rid of the "massage parlor" on Capuchina. 9/25/2014 8:52 PM Not appropriate and probably not legal. Would be nice to have some boutiques and other small and local businessesfretail. No more chain stores. 443 Better restaurants (healthy options) More fitness options / boutique fitness clubs Kids store (like children's place) 9/25/2014 8:49 PM i � i BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 444 Probably could use a couple of nice resturaunts, less nail salons, addition of trees and awnings on the buildings 9/25/2014 8:46 PM 445 There really is nothing inviting about Broadway. there is no continuity. 9/25/2014 8:38 PM 446 mare nice stores, coffee shops, and restaurants 9/25/2014 8:33 PM 447 Better shopping, upscale bars and/or restaurants 9/25/2014 8:30 PM 448 Better restaurants and stores to give more reason to go there, more pedestrian friendly environment (reasons to 9/25/2014 8:29 PM walk around down there, basically) 449 1. Expanded sidewalk dining (likely wider sidewalks necessary I suppose). 2. Minimize (eliminate?) vacant 9/25/2014 8:08 PM storefronts - in the meantime, cover inside of glass storefronts with some kind of faux paper storefront? Give potential businesses an impression of what their business would look like. 3. Reestablish weekday CalTrain service -to attract more business patrons. 450 More City/rown Events Held Regularly There (make it a resident and small business focused area) Burlingame 9/25/2014 8:07 PM Businesses got the Lovely Makeover So Now Make it Attractive and Special to Own a Business on Broadway By: 1) Have Regular Special Street Events/Fair for Broadway Ave Resident Restaurants & Shops Where They Can Do Their Own Special Street Food Services (free tastings and special "street' versions of their dishes along with music and fun for kids, etc. Parking Issue solved via offering free parking in Broadway Train Station lot and have - Burlingame Police Direct Traffic/Cross Pedestrians Safely Across California Ave. 2) Integration of Food Truck Night on Broadway Ave to Help Rather Than Hinder Those Local Businesses (and invite Street Based Businesses to put their "street food' versions of their menu items up against the Trucks (Bricks vs. Trucks Street Food Face -Off) 3) Hold Seasonal Events on Broadway (St. Patrick's Day Celebration; Oktoberfest Halloween Fright Festival; Winter Holiday Celebration; 4th of July Patriot's Pride, etc.) 4) MoreNisable Bike Racks to Encourage Biking to Broadway (Bike to Broadway campaign on special nights?) 451 Need better parking!". 9/25/2014 8:07 PM 452 - bagel shop - more good restaurants - cute, local boutique stores 9/25/2014 8,06 PM 453 More places to eat!! Facelift to buildings!!! Nicer street amenities!!! 9/2512014 7:51 PM 454 Some of the small shops I'm not sure how they stay in business, yet there are a few that are great. The sidewalks 9/25/2014 7:49 PM could be maintained better and overall Broadway could use a facelift. The challenging part is I don't think you can shut it down like Burlingame ave and expect the businesses to do well. There's not enough draw there yet to keep people coming if there's an inconvenience. People enjoy family restaurants, work dinners and happy hours... Perfect location close to the airport and hotels where visitors could frequent. There's not a fitness center so that's great. Awnings could be upgraded, maybe the city comes in and does a good cleaning. There should be a fun night on Broadway where restaurants can serve food and drinks and the businesses can interact. There needs to be a good draw so maybe some live music but definitely food and cocktails. 455 Wine Bar, Good Mexican Restaurant mid-range pricing 9125/2014 7:40 PM 456 Some more casual restaurants, maybe retail stores. Make it a little updated. Feels that way especially compared 9/2512014 7:39 PM to Burlingame Ave. 457 More restaurant 9/25/20147.24 PM 458 Open to commercial office spacce Make a survey of which spaces will come free & try to market to other known 9/25/2014 7:15 PM outlets. Quality of stores on Broadway is not that enticing. Revitalize the area ala Budingame Ave. 459 Fill empty stores Sproce up shop fronts/street 9/25/2014 7.13 PM 460 More good restaurants - both takeout and eating in and more good shopping 9/25/2014 7:11 PM 461 Need to help themselves instead of complaining 9/25/2014 7:07 PM 462 BETTER food. ( take out, mid level, worthy of the San Francisco bay area) We are in one of the best areas for -. 9;25/2014 6:55 PM fresh local food and Broadway could thrive if it attracted this. The mobile food trucks are showing us that there is a demand for this. Fresh baked goods. Peel's coffee, Meat market, fish market. Look up Portland, copy that. You have wealthy people all over the area just dying to spend in Burlingame. 463 It should be CLEAN. It is very grimy looking. Instead of the abomination that has been created on Burlingame 9125/2014 6:45 PM Avenue and the ugly -looking Safeway complex, PLEASE hire someone who has done a decent -looking downtown street like Main Street in Los Altos or Santa Cruz Avenue in Menlo Park or downtown Mountain View. Hopefully whoever designed downtown Burlingame was someone's relative or paid off someone in the City Counsel because there is no other explanation for the poor planning (eliminating parking spaces, doing the work in three section instead of the whole street at the same time) and ugly design -work. 19/48 471 472 473 474 475 476 477 478 479 480 481 482 483 484 485 486 487 488 489 490 outdoor seating. I am missing the pet parade but more neighborhood events for the people in walking distance would be great. Yoga would be nice. I see Pilates coming in. Fill empty or often closed IocAtions with more businesses. I'd also like somewhere I can meet new people to befriend in the neighborhood (e.g. mini dog park). Ooh and it really needs a hardware store! More restaurants Nothing... leave it be. If folks want "More'then head on down to Burlingame Ave. No corporate commercial merchants (like on Burlingame Ave) More parking availability More ethnic and/or healthy/vegetarian restaurants (make Broadway a go -to destination for GOOD food) I think the mix of business in the district is confusing. Most people go the Burlingame Ave to shop for clothes. I would like to see the district move to a more home improvement center. Variety of businesses that Burlingame residents could walk to. Hardware store, places to eat (breakfast, lunch, or dinner) clothes/shoe stares A bit less/slower traffic would be nice. Stops signs would also be great at Laguna, Paloma and Cappuccino. Unfortunately some of the restaurants and businesses seem very dated and thus not too clean. Lots of vacant and/or unkempt storefronts. bakery, more restaurants and food services (deli etc) It feels "ghetto" with junky nail salons and lower end stores. We need to make it an upscale type area / experience. Need more really excellent dining options, and definitely another upscale bar or two. This will make it much livelier. Kick out the "ghetto" stores. Having a couple key name brand retailers might be OK to draw traffic. But would be a shame if it was a clone of Burlingame avenue, which is totally dominated by national retailers. x no change Cosmetic. It is so ugly and run down looking. Better restaurants, food and bar options. Better sidewalks and open space. More interesting stores and restaurants Upgraded sidewalk Would like more higher end shops (clothes, jewelry, home goods, etc, - don't like many of the small shops$ would like a nice Mexican restaurant and a bit more parking. I would love to see more restaurants Better shops - clothing, artisnal foods, bakery, greater variety of restaurants The quality of the shops and restaurants is hit or miss, with more misses than hits. We don't need national chains, but vie need better, more modern choices. (See San Carlos). During busier times, parking is difficult and probably a problem for local residents. It can be hard to slap for quick ATM, dry cleaning pickup, or coffee. Some of the store fronts are starting to look very dated. More clothing stores 1. More compelling retail stores 2. More compelling restaurants 3. More reasons to go there Owners & Tenant's get together to maintain their property instead of blaming every one else. 20/48 9/25/20146:21 PM 9/25120146:01 PM 9/25/2014 5:52 PM 9/25/2014 5:45 PM 9/25/2014 5:42 PM 9/25/2014 5:11 PM 9125/2014 5:01 PM 9125/2014 4:48 PM 9/25/2014 4.40 PM 9/25/2014 4:22 PM 9/25/2014 4:20 PNI 9/25/2014 4:10 PM 9/25/2014 4:03 PM 9/25/20144.01 PM 9/25/2014 3:59 PM 9/25/2014 3:52 PM 9/25/2014 3:38 PM 9/25/2014 3:31 PM 9/25/2014 3:08 PM 9/25/2014 3:02 PM BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 464 Less auto traffic on the street.

More reasons to go there Owners & Tenant's get together to maintain their property instead of blaming every one else. 20/48 9/25/20146:21 PM 9/25120146:01 PM 9/25/2014 5:52 PM 9/25/2014 5:45 PM 9/25/2014 5:42 PM 9/25/2014 5:11 PM 9125/2014 5:01 PM 9125/2014 4:48 PM 9/25/2014 4.40 PM 9/25/2014 4:22 PM 9/25/2014 4:20 PNI 9/25/2014 4:10 PM 9/25/2014 4:03 PM 9/25/20144.01 PM 9/25/2014 3:59 PM 9/25/2014 3:52 PM 9/25/2014 3:38 PM 9/25/2014 3:31 PM 9/25/2014 3:08 PM 9/25/2014 3:02 PM 21/48 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 491 The turnover of restaurants and owners means we do not know what to count on for merchants. It seems it needs 9/25/2014 2:50 PM to be more economically viable to keep consistent merchants and move up market a bit. Having more commercial office space should improve the draw for merchants, which would mean offering more for local residents. We need to cater to people, not cars. Economic vibrancy requires a mix of residents + businesses + merchants. 492 1) End Sunday Fairs - they hurt local businesses, jam parking and don't allow residents to patronize permanent 9125/2014 2:42 PM businesses. 2) More parking 3) End any events that block off streets 493 The addition of high end, organic produce store and butcher. Fewer poor quality restaurants that seem to be 9/25/2014 2:39 PM empty a lot. Addition of a bookstore. 494 Most of the shops are old, dated, not inviting. The toy/ candy stores are almost too creepy to go in. Everything but 9/25/2014 2:33 PM starbucks and the natural store feel old. Add a cheese shop, a flower shop, nicer produce shop, butcher, more interesting coffee options, a'family restaurant' a la Jack's Prime or Jefferys. A nice wine bar. This is a reasonably upscale neighborhood and could be used s0000doo much more than it is today by the local neighborhoods e.g. Easton, Bgame Hills, etc. I think the Walgreens is also very dirty and creepy feeling. 495 More anchor stores, especially ones that are family friendly leg Pottery Barn Kids). Better restaurants.

I would love 9/25/201412:57 PM to see a bakery. 502 Better casual dining or take out food places that are family friendly and have good, fresh food. Examples would 9/25/2014 12:40 PM be pacific catch, pasta porrodom 503 More dress shops retail shopping -upscale shopping bakery,update like budingame ave... 9/25/2014 12:36 PM 504 Fun updated restaurants with energy! Magda Luna was a nice addition. Many/most of the old/dated eateries 9/25/2014 12:13 PM need to spruce up or move out. They are dirty and tired looking. Interesting retail stores -not necessarily apparel (Burlingame Ave has enough of that) perhaps cardlpapers stores, home stores. 505 we need more relevant shops and restaurants. This street should he family friendly and vibrant and right now, It is 9/25/2014 11:33 AM not! There are no cute, artisanal eateries or shops. I love the feel of Ideal, but Broadway feels old and dead. Shops that are great need a face lift or to be surrounded by some other specialty shops to keep the local feel but add in some new energy. Would love to see a really family friendly restaurant too. Like a Pasta Pommodoro or something. 506 more a few more nicer/ gourmet eating establishments a few less nail spas/hair cutting establishments mexican 9/25/2014 11:22 AM restaurant with good burritos a hardware store 507 Vibrant sports bar, Mexican food, patio dining, pedestrian friendly. 9/25/2014 11:18 AM 508 An easier way to drive through. Sometimes pedestrians surprise me and I feel like I can't always see them when 9/25/2014 11:17 AM they cross. Maybe put in some walk -way flashers like you find in downtown San Mateo or across California Ave near the parking for Caltrain. 509 1. 1 would love to see more food options. There are some goof restaurants but nothing that compelling. 2. 9/25/2014 11:09 AM Something for kids/teens to go to 3. More interesting shops. 510 perhaps a grocery store? more retail stores redesign of sidewalks to get parking meters & trash cans off the 9/25/2014 10:46 AM walkway 511 Get rid of the junky stores, put in better stares, restaurants 9/25/2014 10:41 AM 512 Modernizedl Better quality restaurants, better shopping 9/25/2014 10:33 AM 513 Better restaurants Better stores Aesthetics 9125/201410:33 AM 21/48 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 514 Kinko's1UPS type store, more boutiques, butcher 9/25/2014 10:19 AM 515 a way to divert traffic during rush hours ; build out commercial area on adjacent streets 9/25/2014 10:17 AM 516 a small wine bar would be a nice addition, but other than that not much else. It has a good variety of stores and 9/25/2014 10:09 AM businesses 517 Make it desirable real estate - currently, it looks so run down and dilapidated. A couple higher end/nicer/healthier 9125/2014 10:08 AM restaurants (think Pizzeria Delfma or The Plant on Bgame Ave) or a nice wine/scotch bar (please!! Behan's is so gross) and a higher end clothing store (not like the cheapy place that was at the corner of Broadway and Capuchino), which could be a chain store or a boutique (think J Crew, Trina Turk, or Alys Grace). Would love to see a major facelift on Broadway, which would certainly drive more pedestrian traffic and business to it! I also work from home and would love to have small (affordable) office space (if Broadway was a little nicer and had more options for food, shopping, etc.). 518 a few more restaurants 9/25/201410:08 AM 519 1 don't like to see empty store fronts — makes it more difficult for existing businesses to thdv8 9125/201410:00 AM 520 No vacant spaces. Stores east of Walgreens need updating - I do not know anyone who goes to any of them and 9/25/2014 9:52 AM they seem dreary. 521 1 can't think of anything right now. 9/25/2014 9:47 AM 522 -sushi place! -more restaurants that deliver - I'd patronize businesses more. We're full-time working parents with 9/25/2014 9:46 AM young children. 523 Better retailers. Better restaurants. A children's park, perhaps. 9/25/2014 9:36 AM 524 1- restaurant that appeals to younger people (not necessarily upscale or overly trendy, but Burlingame Ave is 9/25/2014 9:35 AM much more appealing to a younger demographic) 2- a place open after 9pm (nice bar?) ... Preston's closes too early on the weekends! 3- another coffee house 525 1- clean up/better aesthetic feel — lots buildings look run down and outdated (e.g., the railing where taste -in and 912512014 9:34 AM magda tuna are. can't we use that space for tables/chairs, plantings) 2- some higher end breakfastAunch gathering places to go to with family or meet up with friend- e.g., La Boulange, or Alana's, Cafe Roma. Something you might walk to as a family or with a trend. 3. Also, nice hip adult gathering places, to grab a drink or meal w with a friend, or group of people, where you don't have to get a formal meal and it doesn't feel just like an old fashioned "bar', . e.g., 31 st Union or Delfinos 4 -Good book store - with seatingicoffee shop. 5 -Dessert shop —chocolates? mini desserts (for night out, or as a gift) 6 -Dean's Produce - 526 revitalization of empty store fronts 9/25/2014 9:29 AM 527 1. More quality, sit down restaurants. Particularly I'd like to see at least one with good California cuisine - the 91252014 9:26 AM quality of food at Broadway Bar and Grille is not good. Would also like to see other food dining options like a larger chain with good quality- AG Ferrari Foods or Oren's Hummus (currently in Palo Alto and Mountain View). Also, charming sit down cafes that have good ambiance and character - I do not feel what is currently there offers this. Better quality food is sorely needed.. 2. There are some seedy stores - i.e. clothing stores that have "trampy" looking clothing - don't want to see more of those go in on the street. 3. 1 think the landscaping is incredibly drab and somewhat decrepit looking. It needs to be spruced up. It feels "dirty". _ 528 - Complete facelift - if it could be upgraded to something like Burlingame Ave., that would be great. - Get rid of a 9/25/2014 9:21 AM lot of the junky stores, office space, miscellaneous gift shops, etc. - Add more sidewalk space - again, something like Burlingame Ave would be very nice. 529 The stores are old, funky, not reliable hours. And the parking is terrible With the Burlingame Ave restoration, why 9/25/2014 9:07 AM would anyone go to Broadway? The city has a great opportunity to revitalize this ave and bring in more revenue and create jobs. What are we waiting for? 530 widened sidewalks, improved safety, improved landscaping 9/2512014 8:26 AM 531 Some of the store fronts look unattractive and the dumpsters behind the Slarbucks building and farmers market 925/2014 8:13 AM are eye sore. 532 Fewer empty storefronts. KID -FRIENDLY OPTIONS 9125/2014 8:05 AM 533 Add an organic ju!ce/coffee shop. Consistent look for the street (like budingame ave!) consistent rules for 9/25/2014 7:26 AM facades di no falling apart sad awnings like Preston's). 534 More attractive entrance from 101, better sit down restaurants and retail shops, clean up the sidewalk 9/25/2014 7:17 AM 22/48 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 535 restuarnts 9/25/2014 7:11 AM 536 The street looks tired dated- not in a cute vintage way (but I do like the arched sign)/does not appear well 9/25/2014 6:36 AM maintained Pass thou traffic to the freeway make it tough for pedestrians to crass (newish pedestrian crosswalks have helped). Vacancies need to be filled 537 upgrade establishments; attract higher end stores and restaurants 9/25/2014 5:21 AM 538 Fewer nail salons and banks. A wine bar would be amazing 9/25/201412:17 AM 539 1. better sidewalks, more walking space 2. better stores (take out all the junky, unuseful stores) 3. more 9/24/201411:50 PM restaruants 540 More quality family friendly restaurants 9/24/2014 1150 PM 541 1) It is currently depressing and run-down. Needs a major spruce up. 2) More high quality restuarants and shops. 9/2412014 11:27 PM There is a variety of stores and restaurants but the quality is not there. 3) Get rid of parking meters. Who ever has quarters any more? 542 I'd love to see cute clothing and home/gift boutiques that aren'tvery expensive Restaurants w better 9/24/2014 11:14 PM foodlatmosphere 543 Updated 9/24/201410:33 PM 544 A Parking structure where visitors &shoppers can be directed easily to,. possibly behind the royal donut cafe.

I would love to 9/24/2014 9:13 PM have a bite to eat and stroll on Broadway much like Burlingame Ave. 547 Improve parking options 9/24/2014 6:22 PM 548 a_ ...9/24;2014 6:01 PM 549 20 mile an hour zone Motorists ticketed for speed and crosswalk violations. Curb serious secondhand tobacco 9/24/2014 5:03 PM smoke exposure by prohibiting restaurant workers and people sitting on sidewalk benches from smoking there 550 Bakery, chiropractic, law firm, day spa (high end) 9/24/2014 4:13 PM 551 Love to see all the stores occupied as many have been sitting empty for years. Love to have a wine bar or hip 9/24/2014 12:12 PM place for parents to get together that serves light fare for lunch and dinner. 552 The shopping options are not that compelling - I mostly go there for food and errands (bank, a few grocery items 9/24/201412:08 PM if I deal need much, walgreens). If I want clothes or gifts, I go to Burlingame Ave. 553 Do not change it. Do not make it look like Rodeo Drive, bland and absurd. Do not reconfigure it so that it does not 9/24/2014 11:53 AM ft with the local community. Burlingame Ave belongs to Hillsborough residents. Let Broadway belong to Burlingame residents. 554 more restaurants, more sidewalk plantsiflowers, general facelift to make it nicer 9/2412014 11:36 AM 555 - More upscale shopping and dining 9/24/2014 11:06 AM 556 more farm to table restaurs, more mom & pop stores, better parking 9/24/2014 1100 AM 557 Freedom! I am opposed to limits on what kind of stores Broadway can or cannot add. I am opposed to any limits 9/24/2014 10:44 AM on eating establishment permits. Burlingame should remove the restrictions in order to let the market decide for itself how best to utilize Broadway. If the city government is going to place restrictions on what can and cannot go there, then the government is to blame for the unappealing nature of the street. I believe more we1!c2pitalized businesses will be attracted to the possibilities of Broadway if you removed all the restrictions currently in place. Put extremely large signs in to point people to parking, and put another sign in close to Broadway -EI Camino which matches the sign close to the railroad tracks, to bookend it. 558 Aesthetics: the general look/feel of the place are not as inviting as the Burlingame Avenue area. To be clear, I do 9/24/2014 10:10 AM not want another Burlingame Avenue type area, but something with a different and more appealing character. 559 Broadway Commercial needs some anchor stores or restaurants that will help enliven that area. There needs to 9/24/2014 8:51 AM be something to capture the public to that area. 23/48 560 561 562 563 564 565 566 567 568 569 570 571 572 573 574 575 576 577 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY native, drought tolerant plants. More restaurants, better parking meters more ART (murals and fun sculpture) much like San Mateo! Better restaurants, more variety of stores Renovate like burlingame avel Fill the vacancies. More anchor stores. Better sidewalks. It looks rather shabby to me, old, tired and run down. A smoothie shop would be a great addition. Art galleries, antiques shops, entertainment. Congestion caused by diagonal parking. more shops, wider sidewalks, more parking more parking spaces, shoe store, small park for kids easier access 9/24/2014 8:19 AM 9/24/2014 8:03 AM 9/2412014 6:34 AM 9/24/2014 6:25 AM 9/23/2014 8:39 PM 9/23/2014 7:39 PM 9/23/2014 4:03 PM 9/23/2014 3:40 PM facade on building located at southeast side of Laguna at Broadway other facade improvements that are worn out 9/23/2014 3:39 PM looking additional flashing lights for pedestrian crossings Mural on side of building next to gas station and entry to Broadway at EI Camino - perhaps trees with "Burlingame the City of Trees" Good use for the Burlingame Depot Would love to see higher quality shopping options, some rehabbed retail space and upgrade of the pedestrian 9/23/2014 3:33 PM experience in general. Now that Burlingame ave is redone - makes away seem kinds old. And would like to see even better restaurant options — family friendly and high quality food. Better restaurants and variety (Places to have breakfast or brunch). More of a walking street Out door seating 9/23/2014 3:05 PM Less nail salons (and I do use a few of the salons that are currently there) 9/23/2014 2:37 PM better lighting better shopping options longer hours (assuming eating and shopping both improve) — I would say 9123/20141:16 PM - the same thing for Burlingame Ave... stores should be open longer to take advantage of dinner crowds and increase visitors It would be great to have a deli and a bakery. Maybe a craft store. 9/23/2014 12:03 PM Cleaner gutters and catch basins . 9/23/2014 11:51 AM Less quantity and better quality restaurants. A moratorium on beauty, hair and nail salons. More big name 912 3/201 4 10:31 AM retailers and less mom & pop stores. More store - restruraunt, bars and furniture store 9/23/2014 9:32 AM A small park - like in the Burlingame Ave district - for younger kids to play. I miss the hardware store and I wish 9/23/2014 9:08 AM we still had the great Mexican restaurant where Joe's is now. But Magda Luna is a great recent addition. I can't think of anything else. 578 bring back the flashing light for pedestrian crossing. not the old lights on the pavement, but the flashing light from a pole about 8 or 10 feet off the ground like on california drive in front of Christies. 579 1. Higher caliber restaurants 2. Better maintained window -fronts and sidewalks. le, cleanliness, flower, displays, etc. 3. Quality Children's store or more kid friendly options. le, playground, etc 580 Keep the sidewalks cleaner, offer incentives to fill empty storefronts, discourage homeless 581 Too many second hand clothing shops. Would love better quality rest ---rants (I only go to Taste, Magna Luna, and Figaro... don't like any other restaurant); not much the planning dept can do about restaurant quality. Perhaps a preference for restaurants that offer organic meatlother choices? A juice place like Deja Vu on Burlingame Ave? Perhaps a high quality chocolate place like Cocoabella (in San Francisco)? Maybe a regular space for Off the God trucks to be on Broadway Avenue? A number of restaurants barely have any customers and I don't know how they stay in business; doesn't help Broadway tax base. Maybe something special for kids in the area; we have a 4 -year-old and there are lots of kids in the area. Sorry... more than 3 things 582 Better parking, but I know this is hard to address. 583 I'd love a good bakery, better restaurants, almost any local businesses that can thrive here. I'm concerned about all the empty storefronts. I really want caltrain to stop here on the weekdays. 584 Small grocery, mailboxes, 585 More vibrant seems run down 24/48 912212014 11:05 PM - 9/22/201410:07 PM - 9/22/2014 9:20 PM --- 9/22/2014 9:03 PM 9/22/2014 8:41 PM 9/22/2014 8:34 PM 9/22,'2014 7:42 PM 9/22/2014 7:38 PM BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 586 We are ardent supporters of Broadway. I would like to see more food focused, artisanal, "quality" offerings from 9/22/2014 6:59 PM places on Broadway. The fact that the places on Broadway protested Off the Grid because it affected their business is a huge joke to all the residents in the neighborhood. Bad businesses had no business on Thursdays anyway. Their spite drove OTG to Tuesdays (much less convenient for the residents) and they STILL have no business. We are looking forward to the upcoming Pilates studio and hope it drives people to Broadway. We frequent and give lots of support to those businesses on Broadway that produce good product. 587 Whatever you do, do NOT go with parallel parking like Burlingame Ave. Nobody knows how to do this anymore 9/22/2014 5:48 PM and could care less whether they get it right, annoying all the people behind them waiting to get through! 588 More parking. Diverting through traffic to Carmelite so one can drive down without having to wait if the railroad 9/22/2014 5:47 PM - crossing arms are down 589 More parklets. Better sidewalks Bike friendly is good because I ride through town too. 9/22/2014 5:43 PM 590 Better restaurants and retail. The District also needs a facelift like the one the Ave just underwent to drive more 9/22/2014 5:38 PM fool traffic. 591 More restaurants which are appropriate for every day. Restaurants that will have good food that are reasonably 9/22/2014 5:36 PM priced and have a comfortable environment. The nice restaurants are great but when looking to get something quick or take a family out to a more casual environment would be nice. Broadway definitely needs a deli that has good, real food for a reasonable. price with a comfortable and clean environment. 592 A large, general grocery store 9/22/2014 4:56 PM 593 More restaurants; better parking; face lift an aging buildings. 9/2212014 4:54 PM 594 1. slight update would be nice 2. new restuarants for young families 9/222014 4:47 PM 595 Updated storefront appearance Better parking availability Greater variety of stores (i.e., non -restaurants) 9/222014 4:41 PM 596 Need to deal with vacancies more quickly. They are depressing and a sign that the building owners are not 9/22/2014 4:24 PM committed to the community. Maintain storefronts better and keep the street cleaner. 597 Make it more attractive with better restaurants and shopping all the money spent on buringame ave and 9/22/2014 4:20 PM broadway closer to all hotels could do a great business If it was kept up better with variety of food and shopping 598 Trees, garden setting to eat, established clothing brands. Music. 9122/2014 4:16 PM 599 More parking More support from the city More restaurants 9/22/2014 4:11 PM 600 Why not provide incentives to businesses to move there and reduce/eliminate the vacancies. Give precedence to 9/22/2014 4:08 PM retail diversity. Maybe that would improve ped. traffic. 601 Presentation of stores, restaurants, weekday access to Caitrain 9/22/2014 3:51 PM 602 More restaurants More retail stores Better pedestrian crossings (maybe stop signs at every intersection) 9/22/2014 3:17 PM 603 b 9/22/2014 3:17 PM 604 More parking options. Improved flow of traffic. Shade trees or arbors along sidewalk. 9/2212014 3:12 PM 605 - A cosmetic upgrade at least to the store fronts - Fewer empty store fronts - Free parking to encourage people to 9/22/2014 2:55 PM shop the street 606 Open air restaurants?? 9/22/2014 2:25 PM 607 One more pub or sports bar Restaurant open past 10 Commercial space by tracks occupied 9/22/2014 2:18 PM 608 Clothing stores. 9/22/2014 1:45 PM 609 1. Would like to see the broadway/Califomia Dr and railroad tracks modified, train tracks elevated. 2. Better 9122,12014 1:44 PM access to the freeway. 3. The one ugly gas station needs to go. 4. Bump outs for parking, wider sidewalk. 610 - 1 wish there were more diverse food options and that parking was. easier. 922/20141:16 PM 611 Better parking for businesses. Better variety of businesses, Public benches for strolling walkers who get tired and 9/22/2014 12:59 PM need to rest to enjoy their outings. 612 Sidewalk area could be made prettier store fronts could be made more attractive 9/2212014 12:43 PM 613 Old outdated storefronts, more restaurants, 9/22/2014 12:26 PM 25/48 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 614 (1) too much smoking on sidewalks (2) improve sidewalk/street quality to have nicer outdoor dining experiences 9/22/2014 11:54 AM (3) higher end retail stores 615 Better retail stores 9/2212014 11:39 AM 616 a local park, clothing stores are really outdated, no real destination spots. 9/22/2014 11:27 AM 617 Change nothing. Do not waste taxpayer money on a street that is in good condition. If you're hell bent on 9/22/2014 1121 AM spending money, then fix the pot hole laced EI Camino Real in Burlingame. Broadway needs nothing except to be left alone. I visit Broadway more than Burlingame Ave because of its less expensive stores. Don't force them out. 618 1. 1 dont think I can comment 2. 1 don't think I can comment 3. 1 don't think I can comment 9/22/2014 11:18 AM 619 1. More variety of restaurants 2. One more bar or two 3. Playground nearby 9/22/2014 11:01 AM 620 bicycle lane and more bicycle parking, outdoor seating for restaurants, easier biking access from bike trails on 9/22/2014 10:55 AM Broadway (bike/pedestrian bridge the crosses 101 from the airport business parks). 621 1. A mix of stores for different demographics. We are a young family of 4, so we naturally go to the supermarket, 9/22/2014 10:53 AM and clothing stores for kids and adults that are reasonably priced. There seems to be more of that at Burlingame. 2. The sidewalks are attractive but there's limited space for strollers to move and bicycle parking. Somehow freeing up sidewalk space or expanding would help. 3. C 622 Not enough business diversity (we've got restaurants, clothing boutiques, and nail salons covered, thanks). 9/22/2014 10:50 AM Create incentives to attract more services and retail options and reduce chronic commercial vacancy (a book store/newsstand/comic book store? a creative space for kids like Scribble Me Happy, or Fire Me Up? A theater? A hardware store?) 623 We need more restaurants and nice bars. I would like to see the streets closed once in a while and allow the 9/22/2014 10:46 AM restaurants to serve food outside. I would like to see the Broadway Deli closed since they are never open to actually serve the neighborhood. I would also like restaurant owners/landlords to invest in their locations. Things like the hardware store being used for storage for another business on the street detract from the neighborhood. 624 1) More entertainment (bars) and restaurants, It starts to feel empty as night sets in, but not to the point that it 9/2212014 10:45 AM feels empty during the day either. A good mix. 2) Spruce up the look of Broadway. The sign looks a little dated. 625 Better restaurants, specialty shops (wine, food items), and outdoor seating. 9/22/2014 9:58 AM 626 I'm pretty happy with the way it is 9/22/2014 9:54 AM 627 Adding more retail shopslrestaurants or at least keeping the balance that is there. Better interchange to Highway 9/22/2014 9:45 AM 101. Current on Broadway street parking can block thru traffic - not sure how this can be improved without reducing the number of parking slots. 628 Restore weekday train service to increase customer flow through Broadway area. Encourage redevelopment to 9/22/2014 9:45 AM include 2-3 story mixed use Generate stranger pedestrian / bike link to bayside and Bayshore Blvd to skim customers from the bayfront and make bayfront part of the overall Broadway exoedence opportunity. 629 Broadway just is not attractive to visit. No charm. 9/22/2014 9:43 AM 630 needs to be updated. Restaurants need more outside seating with updates to the inside searing areas More 9/222014 9:41 AM enforcement of under age drinking at some of the restaurants/bars. Safe parking on the street (re -configuration such as parallel to avoid collisions as people back out of spots) 631 More parking, a Kinkos/UPS store, no more coffee houses, 9/22/2014 9:35 AM 632 Better restaurants- good French one. Better Italian. More farm to table. Perhaps a high-end boutique and high-end 922/2014 9,32 AM nail salon, although there are many. Same with hair- lots of cutters, but all out of date. Still like them. 633 -widen and beautify the sidewalks to make it more pedestrian friendly -make it a one way street from el carmine 9/22/2014 9:28 AM headed to California so that cars could no longer speed down broadway after coming off of 101 -put in crosswalk lights in the ground to alert drivers of pedestrians crossing -Limit the number of nail salons -attract more restaurants and pubs 634 1. Additional shopping -would be great to have some brand name anchor stores 2. Yoga / Fitness - I'd love to 9/22/2014 9:27 AM see a Yoga or fitness studio 3. Additional packing might be nice 635 - More business's that would get you to go there.. Like a good clothing of gift shop. Something that would make 9/222014 9:26 AM you want to walk the avenue, like Burlingame Ave.. 26/48 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 636 Lower vacancy rate possibly through some sort of subsidy? 9/22/2014 9:19 AM 637 More variety of restaurants at all price points 9/22/2014 9:19 AM 638 The District lacks enough variety in businesses other than restaurants to really seem like a neighborhood center. 9/22/2014 9:16 AM The grocery store added a few years ago has helped, but there is no hardware, sports, book store (etc, etc.), to make the area more self-sufficient. 639 Its 912212014 9:13 AM 640 -. n/a 9/22/20149:13 AM 641 1. Greater variety of retailers for regular needs: book store, hardware store, office supplies/stationary, bakery, 9/22/2014 9:12 AM seed store/local ag resource, entertainment, pet store 2. Better street trees - we shouldn't fear a good tree canopy - perhaps planted in extended islands (away from buildings) 3. Greater density: second floor offices, 2nd/3rd/4th floor residential 642 Whole Foods! More space for outdoor seating for restaurants, better traffic flow. 9/22/2014 9:07 AM 643 The parking can fill up during busy times, and we have often found ourselves walking blocks carrying small 9.'22/2014 9:06 AM children. I know there are already many parking lots and not a lot of empty areas, so I don't know if there is an easy solution. Also I often think that there are areas that are less well maintained on the street. It is nice to have older established community based businesses, but some don't keep up their properties or seem to clean at all. I also often find myself unwilling to stay in certain areas due to the number of people smoking while standing outside businesses. I have been eating in restaurants and had my meal ruined by smoke coming in from outside. 644 better parking 9/2220149.06 AM 645 Broadway needs sprucing up, cleaning, and a general face lift, without destroying the small town feel. 9/22/2014 8:42 AM 646 more restaurants 9/22/2014 8:38 AM 647 ATMS, out door seating. 9122/20148:21 AM 648 I'd like to see the sidewalks cleaned more The parking lots are filthy the traffic gets snarled when people wait far 9i22/2014 8:19 AM a car pulling out so they can park 649 1 love Behan's but there ought to be at least one more real bar on Broadway, maybe two. Many us live close 9/22/2014 8:04 AM enough to walk over for a drink. A broader selection of establishments would make the street a greater attraction. Not worrying about driving is a huge encouragement to get a cocktail or a beer. Also, more sidewalk space might encourage outside dining. 650 remove small planters; more benches for seating; more bike racks 9/2212014 8:01 AM 651 needs a facelift 9/22/2014 7:47 AM 652 the two gas stations next to the Broadway sign looks unwelcoming The freeway exit looks ugly, Can use some 9/22/2014 7.18 AM green trees and plants. More parking spaces 653 Better traffic flow. If a parking lot is full you have to drive around the block to get to the next lot. I'm sure that adds 922/2014 7:12 AM traffic to the residential streets that they don't need or want. Traffic flow across the railroad tracks takes too long. When making a tum from a side street onto Broadway, it's difficult to see traffic coming—parked cars limit viability. 654 parking can be difficult. Some trucksivans that park on Broadway stick out too far in the street and make it hard 9/2212014 6.34 AM for 2 cars to pass. There are getting to be to many 'gently used" clothing stores. It was nice when we had Elle _ Boutique - another clothing stare of that kind would be good. 655 Xxx 9122/20146:08 AM 656 1. Driving regulations .... people are constantly making u -turns in middle of street and it is dangerous, people 9/22/2014 5:37 AM double pads to grab coffee etc. some trucks are too big for parking and cause problems. 2. There are enough restaurants! More restaurants would only add to more congested parking in the evening. 3. A bakery, 657 N/a 9/22/2014 5:20 AM 658 better parking 9/22/201412:09 AM 659 - Fix the entry sign (REPLACE IT) - More interesting restaurants - More mix of stores 9/21/2014 11:48 PM 660 9/21/2014 11:34 PM 661 More non -restaurant shops that appeal to a wider -range of shoppers 9121/2014 11:08 PM 27/48 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 662 - Most of the store fronts/facades seem dated - everything feels a little old and run down. Many store fronts could 9/21/2014 10:43 PM use some "freshening up" (e.g., the Starbucks renovation was a nice improvement). - Would be great to see more upscale shops and more "hip" restaurants- places that would draw people to the street, like Burlingame Ave does. I know people who live in Burlingame and Hillsborough who have never been to Broadway. - While we appreciate the culinary diversity on Broadway, the quality is inconsistent (some places are good and many are not.) 663 Better utilization of commercial space Addition of new restaurants, shops 9/21/2014 10:35 PM 664 Better mix of businesses that serve the community. Investment in quality of exterior and interior of businesses. 9,21/201410:27 PM Investment in medians. 665 More stores with better quality products More attractive plantings with better maintenance Less of a mix of shops 9/21/2014 10:00 PM and services Get rid of weird shops that you hardly ever see people in. 666 Bring in a couple of hip restaurants, make it more of a destination. The Asian restaurants on Broadway, with the 9121/2014 9:58 PM exception of Sesame, are mostly pretty mediocre. Get some good ones in. It is actually quite a diverse selection of places to eat, just up the quality. 667 more fun retail stores, restaurants, bike lanes 9/21/2014940 PM 668 N/a _ 9/21/20149:34 PM 669 Add parking space. Need to make roads nicer, and add lights at night. Attract better restaurants and merchants. 9/2112014 9:27 PM Reduce gas stations. 670 1 wish broadway was more similar to Burlingame avenue. I would like more stores and restaurants. 921/2014 9:13 PM 671 Take down the Broadway sign at the entrance of the ave. make the owner of the gas station next to Goodwill to 9121/2014 9:12 PM maintain clean and get rid off the old cars he keeps there. Don't put the Christmas tree up. It is a bad looking and cheesy. 672 Less congestion less cars 9/21/2014 9:09 PM 673 Too many stores are needless I dont need all the clothes stores that budingame ave has, but more, higher 9/2112014 8:57 PM quality family friendly restaurants and healthy quick service restaurants are needed. And everything looks dilapidated. It needs a facelift. Lastly, the traffic can snarl on broadway between the freeway and california. Can these be widened or somehow improved? 674 Added to the above mix is needed a couple of good clothing stores, a gift shop, perhaps a shoe store. As the 9/21/2014 8:50 PM street is right now, it is not efficient to go to Broadway. One goes there if it's the only place to pick up a particular thing. Broadway seems to try to develops piecemeal.... stores go out of business because there are no supporting businesses that make a trip to the area worthwhile. A plan where several interesting shops are established at the same time would be the seed that would be the incentive to attract more individual shops. Lots of interesting shops would be an incentive to come and stroll/check out what's an Broadway! That's not the case now! 675 1 would like more stores and restaurants! I would also like a farmers market! 9/21/2014 8:22 PM 676 1. Restoration of the historical Broadway sign 2. Update the hardscape similar to Burlingame Avenue—this is the 912112014 7:25 PM gateway to Burlingame and the first major commercial street that many people see as they come to Burlingame! 3. Family friendly restaurants 677 Greater variety if shops and Resturants. 9121/2014 7:10 PM 678 Sidewalks are too narrow and businesses put chairsitables out on sidewalk, morelbrighter street lights, parking 9/21/2014 7:09 PM along Broadway usually causes delay in traffic and the driving lanes are too narrow 679 nothing major 9/21/20147:07 PM 680 Make sure all the storefronts are rented out! A clean (i.e., not seedy looking) bar would be awesome, preferably a 9121/2014 6:44 PM sports bar A few higher end restaurants A movie theater would be AMAZING! Sorry, that was 4- 681 There's a great, small-town cute atmosphere too the District; BUT it also feels slightly... abandoned. I'm not sure 9/21/2014 6:42 PM how to describe it. As though it used to be a hot, thriving place but has grown old and is now more sleepy and forgotten. Driving down Broadway is a nightmare, one I avoid whenever possible. The intersection of California & Broadway is particularly bad, though I'm not sure what I'd change to make it better specifically. Would love to see the Caltrain station reopened, but I recognize that's not likely to happen. _ 682 - 1 am not a very good consumer. I shop at the Farmers Market consistently. I cook at home about 90% of the time. 9121/2014 6:38 PM Maybe cleaner streets. 28/48 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 683 more restaurants better shops exercise facilities 9/2112014 6:36 PM 684 Re -open the CalTrain station.:) 9/21/20146:35 PM 685 better parking cleanliness 921/2014 6:09 PM 686 more stores less boarded up shop fronts 91212014 6:08 PM 687 More and better restaurants! 9/21/2014 5:54 PM 688 1. Investment such as on Burlingame avenue to improve the look and feel of the street. 2. Greater variety of high 9/21/2014 5:47 PM quality restaurants 3. More cafes and night life 689 Better parking Variety of shops NOT TRENDY 9/21/2014 5:39 PM 690 I'd like to see better restaurants, better shops, and more businesses that I would frequent. 9/21/2014 5:18 PM 691 More shops 9/21/20145:11 PM 692 Clean up more eliminate people asking for money at Walgreen keep business on Broadway 9/21/2014 5:00 PM 693 - Would be nice to have a few more retail stores like clothing 9/21/20144:47 PM 694 Update and improve the fagade of the district. Not to the degree of the Avenue. Just a simple cosmetic 9/2112014 4:46 PM improvement. 695 It's depressing to see so many vacant stores. It would be nice to get some good retail stores there, but none 9/21/2014 4:15 PM seem to last long. 696 Sidewalks kept cleaner, but in general it is a great street and the off-street businesses such as Goodwill and Pick 914:06 PM of the Litter are great, too! 697 Less traffic ,more parking , no national stores 9/21/2014 3:59 PM 698 More light. Update the broadway sign off califomia. Get people to dean up the sidewalks. 9121/2014 3:46 PM 699 Better restaurants. Some of the restaurants on Boradway are awful - no wonder the food trucks are so popular. 9/21/2014 3:43 PM Broadway needs a better pizza place, a decent Chinese food restaurant, a bakery, and frozen yogurt. The exterior of some of the buildings is so dated. Sidewalks look so bad compared to the new ones on Burlingame Ave. 700 The nail and hair salons need to stop coming in! Would love to see something like Yogurtland and the Garden 9/21/2014 3:42 PM come to Broadway for families and teens. 701 Better stores Updates to everything - buildings, common areas etc. Better parking and traffic Flow 921/2014 3:41 PM 702 1 would like to see a better mix of shops..too many hairdressers and nail salons. More antique stores and gift 9/21/2014 3:39 PM shops to pull some of the tourist In without losing the unique quality of Broadway Avenue. 703 benches to sit and people watch. 9/21/2014 3:34 PM 704 old, old, old outdated. merchants don't take care of the outside of their shops 9121/2014 3:32 PM 705 1 would lave to see the restaurants cleaned up. There is such potent!al,but filthy windows with dead bugs in 9/21/2014 3:29 PM them.how great would it be to have some awesome restaurants like bgame ave or San Mateo.... We could walk fiom the Easton addition! 706 -it looks run-down/outdated. It's as if the landowners don't care -promote some unique restaurants similar to San 9/21/2014 3:29 PM Carlos -Think of downtown Carmel, La Jolla, Los Altos 707 benches, green space — more hang outtgathering areas 9/21/2014 3:26 PM 708 [Empty Storefronts filthy ATM Bof, , Niche cleanup the Post Office on Cappuccino off Broadway 9,210014 3:23 PM 709 I'd like the merchants to clean up their storefronts. 9/21/2014 3:22 PM 710 More restaurant options More'higher end'/quality clothing stores more vibrancy 9/21/2014 3:18 PM 711 More food options, better/more parking, an updated feel 9/2112014 3:07 PM 712 Nothing i can think of 9/21/2014 2:58 PM 713 More up to date restaurants Potentially a Whole Foods Market (we need one that's closer than Foster City) 9/2112014 2:55 PM 29/48 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 714 Noise limits to prevent and reduce disturbances to neighboring residences. Greater variety of stores and 9/21/2014 2:53 PM restaurants. 715 Better traffic flow. Easier packing. 9/21/2014 2:51 PM 716 bring back a pharmacy, add variety store, 9/21/2014 2:45 PM 717 No opinion. 9/21120142:41 PM 718 Bring in some interesting retail shops and restaurants! 9/21/2014 2:39 PM 719 A regular event to help drive traffic to the area- e.g holding off the grid off of broadway on a side street or parking 9/2112014 2:37 PM lot would've been perfect. 720 More quality restaurants and a cool bar, higher end or name familiar clothing store and less vacancies (hopefully 9/21/2014 2:25 PM none someday). 721 Brightened up, seems rundown compared to Burlingame Ave 9/21/2014 2:16 PM 722 The street itself is hard to navigate. It seems Guttered, big cars sticking out making it hard to stay on your side of 9/21/20141:44 PM the road. Also with the train traffic backups, it's harder to get out of the parking places. I think they should go to parallel parking with bigger spaces making it easier to get in and out of. 723 more parking spaces more parking spaces more parking 9/21/20141:33 PM 724 Better retail and restaurants 9/21/2014 1:29 PM 725 1. Bakery 2.Hardware store 3. Toy and Hobby store 9/21/20141:10 PM 726 Parking garages, better variety of clothing stores. Fast food restaurant (ie Panda Express, In -and -Out, etc), 9/21/2014 11:55 AM expand the Walgreens 727 1. Parking can be difficult—and the "meter maids" are notoriously ruthless. 2. On occasion I've met friends at 9/21/201411:31 AM several of the restaurants, but I've never been impressed enough too want to return to any of them. 3. Some of the down -scale businesses seem to think they are selling merchandise at an outdoor bazaar. And that's not a good thing :) 728 For it to he a destination for retail and eating and drinking establishments. To tie in the off the grid events more, 9/21/2014 11:25 AM and to be more welcoming to larger merchants. 729 More upscale bars & restaurants, fewer convenience -type stores 9/21/2014 11:13 AM 730 1. good quality dining for evening would bring us there regularly. Lack of same sends us elsewhere in Burlingame 9/21/2014 11:12 AM regularly or other places on the peninsula 731 1 would love a more safe way to ride or walk from Burlingame Avenue to Broadway Avenue. Traffic is too heavy 9/21/2014 11:06 AM and fast on California Ave to make biking or walking a practical, safe option for young people and families with kids. 732 Bike racks 91211201410:36 AM 733 1. It physically loos run down. 2. More high end retail. 3. Outdoor seating. 9/21/2014 10:07 AM 734 _ Buildings and landscaping need to be spruced up, need better pedestrian experience Want more restaurants with 9/21/2014 9:59 AM great food - sit-down and take-out Want more stores with unique merchandise 735 The smell of a bakery. Hardware. 9/21/2014 9:44 AM 736 No answer 9/21/20149:33 AM 737 dirty, narro sidewalks, storefronts in dis-array, restaurants poor quality, parking is tough, and since you asked - 9/21/2014 9:29 AM get rid of that ugly iron horse that is chained up to the flagpole by Chevron.:-) 738 more daytime eating options, rather than just restaurants for dinner yoga studio (not pilams) 9/21/2014 9:06 AM 739 More restaurants More grocery/shops Some draw to want to go there 9/21/2014 8:44 AM 740 Better restaurantsll Fewer random retail storefronts that don't seem to serve that many people in community 9121/2014 8:38 AM Traffic flow 741 We would love to have a better pizza restaurant. Not an Italian restaurant, because we already have two good 9/21/2014 8:37 APA ones, but a GOOD pizza place. The one we have is mediocre. BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 742 More shops restaurants and services inc gym type offerings 9/21/2014 8:26 AM 743 It needs TLC a fresh coat of paint and better landscaping 9/21/2014 8:22 AM 744 More parking spaces More flowers to beautify street less nail and beauty salons 9/21/2014 8:20 AM 745 Signal lights at intersection of California better times NO TRAIN HORN 9/21/2014 8:19 AM 746 Need to have a Caltrains overpass, i.e. have cars go under the tracks. - 9/21/2014 8:12 AM 747 Storefronts seem old and dilapidated. In need of a remodel. It would be great to host an additional fair or festival 9121/2014 7:09 AM or maybe a dine about town or evening restaurant tour. Try to fill the empty storefronts. 748 Improve traffic lights for pedestrian walking from the bayshore to broadway. check the traffic light button on 9/20/2014 11:09 PM california on the left side when walking from the waterfront *for pedestrian' and please fix it. Burlingame Trolley stop on the way back on CalTrain (helps tourist and residents to get around easier and will bring more business to Burlingame and with it have Carfrain stop 7 days a week at Broadway. will also lead to reduction of traffic congestion at Burlingame Avenue stop. 749 Stores need to be refreshed . - looking tired better parking 9/20/2014 11:01 PM 750 Better parking 9/20/2014 10:55 PM 751 More restaurants Bike racks 9/20/2014 10:28 PM 752 a couple of "destination" retailers would help the small, local businesses (as presumably Walgreens does). 9/20/2014 9:40 PM 753 More attractive store and restaurant options, an updated look --overall broadway look and feel is very hodge- 9/20/2014 9:07 PM podge and dated, maybe a couple smaller scale chain stores which would draw more traffic to broadway (I.e., Vans, or a bookstore) 754: 1. Enforcement of "no U-turns" & prohibiting oversize trucks, pick up trucks or vehicles that extend out in the 9/20/2014 8:52 PM driving lane. 2. Better crosswalks for pedestrians w/flashing lights 3. Ban garbage truck pickup during prime commute time. Friday Sept.19th traffic was severely backed up at 8:15 am with a truck blocking eastbound traffic during heavy commute-- garbage pick up on that street should be scheduled very very early before the commute traffic is so heavy. 755 I'd like to see more foot traffic— more business for the restaurants and stores. We need another large, popular 9/20/2014 8:38 PM restaurant like the broadway grill 756 Broadwayjust feels a little run-down. Too many vacant store fronts, stores that seem old and out of date and a 9/20/2014 8:37 PM general tired look and feel. 757 Advertisement of what is available, and some way to better distinguish the names of the sidestreets for people 9/202014 8:32 PM who do not live in that neighborhood. It is very easy to get mixed up as to locations of various stores. 758 Nicer stores restaraunts 9/20/20148:21 PM 759 Better clothing stores Less restaurant More specialty type if business 9/20/2014 8:11 PM 760 more restaurants and dining, bar options 9/20/2014 8:09 PM 761 Fewer low -rated restaurants and vacant spaces. Need local restaurants that feature fresh food and are well lit and 9/20/2014 8:02 PM welcome families. Cleaner sidewalks and landscaping,hanging baskets Speed humps more incentives for creative folks to start businesses like San Mateo, eg, alternative creative birthday nrty and class venues for kids (like Scribble Me Happy), sewing lesson and craft studio for all ages, music lesson space; 762 Please fill the empty stores with serviceable services to a local community. 9/20/2014 7:55 PM 763 Would like to see the area spruced up, a trash can outside the post office. Broadway traffic is horrible, would like 9/20/2014 7:43 PM to see parking restricted to one side all day on Carmelite as an alternative. Would like apartments to manage their landscaping to keep the sidewalks open. 764 More parking 9/2020147:37 PM 765 more retail stores clothing stores no more restaurants 9/20/2014 7:35 PM 766 Better quality of stores The intersections of California, Broadway and Carolan are a nightmare. Never go up 9/20/2014 7:29 PM Broadway when I come off the freeway. The whole entrance to the City of Burlingame should be made more attractive. 767 everything is ok 9120/2014 6:46 PM 31/48 768 769 770 771 772 773 774 775 776 777 778 779 780 781 782 783 784 785 786 787 788 789 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY A more modem restaurant More parking lots on the side streets No commercial businesses like lawyers, banks, or high end retailers Stop putting up the tacky Christmas decorations More retail shops, a nice coffee shop, better restaurants with outdoor seating I would like for Broadway to be mare vibrant and have an allure that's more comparable to Burlingame Ave. I think focusing an outside areas, like terraces and benches (other than the concrete half circles that are there now) might help with this as well. Also maintenance might be an issue. Stores with better quality products would be much appreciated and maybe more stores with things people actually need, I'm thinking about a book store for instance or a stationery. Better restaurants, better parking More parking A fresh look A different look than Burlingame Ave. Keep angled parking, and build A new parking structure. it seems to me that the Broadway district is behind the curve. I would like to see it updated more like burlingame ave. Having better restaurants and shopping would draw a better crowd and make the area more attractive. I'd love to see unique boutiques that were squeezed out of Burlingame ave have a home on broadway. Jamba juice Burrito place I would love to see better restaurants and a meat market so we don't have to drive to Papes. I would love more places that offered music. I would like to see less nail places on Broadway and please, please, please make them take down the neon signs on bath the nail places and the Broadway Grill. Add more restaurants -similar to pizzeria delfina on burlingame ave. more upscale but still family friendly. Add more shopping to ensure the commercial district is more lively. Shopping will ensure there is more foot traffic and make it a fun place for me and my family 9/2012014 6:44 PM 9/20/20146:31 PM 9/20/2014 6:21 PM 9/20/2014 6:05 PM 9/20/2014 6.00 PM 9/2012014 5:52 PM 9/20/20145:51 PM 9/20/2014 5:50 PM 9/20/2014 5:39 PM 9/20/2014 5:14 PM 9/2012014 5:13 PM 9/20/2014 5:05 PM better shops and restaurants 9/20/2014 4:53 PM Parking, parking, parking. 9/20/20144:52 PM More utilitarian stores such as hardware and bakery and local pharmacy - not large chain stores. Reduce on 9/20/2014 4.32 PM street parking and focus on pedestrians - expand use of back parking lots Reopen Caltrain station for local 9/20/2014 3 40 PM service. Improve access from freeway and direct traffic away from Broadway to side streets. More variety in 9/20/2013 3:35 PM stores. 9/20/2014 3:30 PM Broadway intersection with California Ave and railroad tracks is always a mess. I always avoid that area if 9/20/2014 4:17 PM possible. It needs to fixed to bypass the railroad crossing Facelift, parking, better shops + restaurants 9/20/2014 3:54 PM Where does the BID funds get spent on. Who manages the BID process and who decides exspentures Is BCD 9120,12014 3:43 PM the same the BID for Broadway More vanety of stores, such as a good restaumunt 9/20/2014 3 40 PM add more restaurants and some interesting stores 9/20/2013 3:35 PM More regulation on health standards in restaurants. More variety of restaurants that people actually want to go to. 9/20/2014 3:30 PM Affordable, family friendly restaurants that are a part of the community. Stores that are useful and make a resident want to go to Broadway as an alternative to Burlingame Ave. All stores and restaurants there now are sleepy and not useful. The only businesses we frequent as a family within walking distance are Starbucks and Preston. More big name restaurants and shops like Burlingame ave 9/20/2014 3:23 PM MKI R BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 790 1) Restaurants and of low quality and variety. We would love to have good Indian food, Thai food, a good pizza restaurant (which Village pizza is not), some low end pasta (e.g. pasta pomodoro would be awesome), good pica, maybe a seafood place like Pacific Catch, etc - Really the only places we currently go to on Broadway are: Starbucks (most common), Walgreens (next most common) and Wells Fargo. Occasionally we go to Presides and very occasionally to Broadway Grill (though our friends don't like it much, which makes us go less frequently) or Taste in Medditeranean or Magdaluna (fine burritos but super weak salsa bar, terrible tortilla chips and kind of expensive - we usually end up ddving to La Cornets) 2) Stores are also kind of tired and not great variety. For example, our kids (5th and 7th grade) like to be dropped off at Burlingame Ave and even Trousdale shopping ctr, but not really ever walk to Broadway 3) In general more mid-level, family friendly destinations. Our kids are 5th and 7th grade, as mentioned, and there is not much for them around Broadway other than Starbucks. But there isn't much for younger kids either. A playground nearby, maybe a library, really anything that would be interesting for kids would be great. 4) Not sure if you can change this one, so I didn't want to waste it in my top 3, but obviously having the main route to 101 on/off ramp being right through Broadway negatively impacts Broadway ever being a great walking, shopping and eating area 791 N/a 792 Some dean -up, 793 Generally the area seems run-down. A better variety of higher -end restaurants would be appreciated (and frequented). 794 Wine bars, hip restaurants, juice bar, lululemon or athletic apparel, nice massage and spa, definitely great food and drink place so it draws more people 795 Parking , of course, with access third stores from back to front or some alleys to access Broadway without walking around the block. 796 added: hardware, stationer, book/periodical seller 797 One or two family restaurants with higher quality food (something equivalent to a pizzeria delfma), a few nicer boutiques, better overall maintenance of the street (for example, the Bank of America ATM area is filthy and gross!). Small gym or workout facility similar to Dethrone Basecamp or a yoga studio would also be nice 798 better restaurants, stores and ambience 799 Better parking, nicer walking experience, more inviting shops and restermants, better parking, less one way streets, second story offcefting space (acts as built in customers) better lighting, more open feet. (Think Santanna row in San Jose) 800 Would like to see more hangout spaces on the street— room, for example, like on burlingame ave that has chairs and tables in front of restaurants and nice sitting areas. More greenery as well. I like the food tmcks now at Caltrain parking area. That brings people and a fun atmosphere. Perhaps more activity could take place in that parking lot. For example, a tai chi group class could be held there, free music events with chairs set up, or a small stage for shakespear events, or a highschool play group, a bochie ball portable court, or a chess tournament held there, even a spot one day a week where street artists could set up. I'd like to see activity of some sort, perhaps a day for street artists, or something like that even right on Broadway. It would be nice to have somewhere artists could hang out and paint or sketch and even sell right on Broadway. A theatre that puts on plays would be great to add on Broadway. Or even a dinner theatre. Perhaps that empty building that was a restaurant right on the caltrain line could be made into a dinner theater. But it would have to be reasonably priced, not highend. The important thing is not to tum Broadway into Burlingame Avenue, but a smaller unique space that hits the interests and finances of a lower financial clientelle that what Buringame caters to, Broadway doesn't want to compete with Burlingame Avenue but be its own unique "people's" spot.. 801 Less junky shops of clothing and knick knacks. There are many different types of restaurants but the actual quality of most needs to improve. I think an anchor like a Trader Joss or Ferrari Foods would be great. 802 More clothing stores, more activities for children 803 More parking 804 More restaurants and they need to open later. 805 better selection of retail 806 Better restaurants, more hip 807 CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN 33/48 9/20/2014 3:19 PM 9/20/2014 3:16 PM 9/20/2014 2:50 PM 9/20/2014 2:49 PM 9/20/2014 2:48 PM 912012014 2:39 PM 9/20/2014 2:17 PM 9/20/2014 2:12 PM 9/20/2014 2:08 PM 9/20/2014154 PM 9/20/20141:50 PM 9/20/2014 1:46 PM 9/20/20141:40 PM 9/20/2014 1:38 PM 9/20/2014 1:07 PM 912020141:07 PM 9/20/2014 1:06 Ptd 9/20/2014 1:00 PM BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 808 More contemporary and less run-down stores. 809 Maybe more "greening" of pathways leading from parking lots south of Broadway to Broadway. A park or parklet somewhere nearby. Maybe a little sprucing up of some buildings (new paint and such) but not at the expense of the small town, non -cookie cutter feel of Broadway. 810 Still too many empty storefronts; opening of Caltrain station; bring in a good bakery, and a good butcher shop; increase bike racks for parking on side streets 811 812 813 814 815 816 817 818 819 820 821 822 823 824 825 826 Ifs kinda of ugly compared to Burlingame Ave Do NOT want to add wider sidewalks. The parking lots behind the businesses are just fine. I can't think of anything that is earth shattering that needs to be changed. Maybe free parking, i.e. no meters, like Millbrae. 1. Make it safer for pedestrians. 2. Cheaper parking meters. 3. Don't replace parking meters with those that don't accept coins. A better Mexican restaurant, sidewalks steam cleaned more often More destination shopping Currently there Is nothing over there I feel compelled to drive to. There would need to be good restaurants, shopping or services that I cannot get on Burlingame Ave. A good shoe store. Since this is the first street outsiders see entering Burlingame money to upgrade and enhance should have been spent there instead of Burlingame Avenue. But keep it quaint- not just another Burlingame Avenue. I find the Broadway commercial district to look a little sad and tired. Although there are many nice establishments, I don't like to see all the empty space/store fronts. I particularly miss Ellie boutique. There are stores that appear to be very cluttered with merchandise, and not of good quality. I love to support small businesses, so I'd like to see more on Broadway. Perhaps some container plants and flowers would help to beautify and add charm to the street as well. No comment Wine bar More restaurants Too many manicure shops Most restaurants with a few exceptions are mediocre There are still too many empty storefronts 1. no parking meter 2. no vacancies 3. A wider range of stores. Better and more restaurants Better shopping - mostly second hand and oddities Removal of all the useless shops that no one goes into and replace with better shopping. There is a deli that has never been opened, an antique store that's never open. More american food choices. A trendy restaurant or two like pizza Delfina. You could also do more art galleries or craft shops. Nice to get an Artisanal beer place and tap room. Burlingame should be planning to woo the techies and folks moving south from San Francisco. 827 Could use a couple more special draws. 828 The look of the area needs some beautifying, and a lot of the shops sell odd, or unusual, merchandise - there's nothing to go there for, except for the restaurants. The area feels very old fashioned, dated. 829 Parking improvements Replace 2nd hand clothing and furniture stores with restaurants or brand name merchandise stores Renovate tired old buildings and store fronts 830 Less beauty shops Larger stores with more variety of products Freeway exit makes traffic bad during commute hours 9/20/2014 12:49 PM 9120/201412:46 PM 9120/201412:41 PM 9/20/201412:31 PM 9/20/2014 11:41 AM 912012014 10:51 AM 9/20/2014 10:51 AM 9!20/2014 10:43 AM 9/20/2014 10:42 AM 9/20/201410:25 AM 9/20/2014 10:21 AM 9/20/2014 10:16 AM 9/2012014 10:01 AM 9120/2014 9:46 AM 9120/2014 9:45 AM 9/20/2014 9:44 AM 9/20/2014 9:41 AM 9/20/2014 9:41 AM 9120/2014 9:36 AM 9/20/2014 9:36 AM 9/20/2014 9:34 AM 9/20!2014 9:33 AM 9/20/2014 9:19 AM 831 1. There are a few commercial businesses that do not fit into the food service and day-to-day needs theme, like 9/20/2014 9:17 AM home improvement, travel agency, etc. As that space becomes available, I would replace it with restaurants. 2. Improved parking options. 3. 832 Italian Take Out 9/20/2014 9:16 AM 34/48 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 833 more festivals 9120/2014 9:16 AM 834 1. The parking on the streets is just horrible. It needs to change. It is a major street and there are always cars 9/20/2014 9:15 AM waiting for parking spots, which completely slops the flow of traffic. 2. Some of the buildings on the street appear run down and need to be updated. 835 More and better bars/restaurants (savvy to online ordering / reservations, Bar that's "cleaner" than Berens) More 9/20/2014 8:56 AM "dailyhveekly life essentials" stores (actual grocery store vs. farmers market, solid hardware store (old one sucked and put themselves out of business), UPS/FedEx) Less traffic congestion 836 Less second hand stores More outdoor seating at restaurants 9/20/2014 8:52 AM 837 Wells Fargo Bank needs more parking space. Wells Fargo Bank needs more parking space. Wells Fargo Bank 9/20/2014 8:46 AM needs more parking space. 838 Major renovation of store fronts & entire street. An increase in diverse entertainment & nightlife activities. Worth 9,2012014 8:35 AM mentioning over & over again, a Major facelift of the entire stip. 839 1.) it is pretty dumpy looking. I love the Broadway district but it has a sad and were look to it - many of the 9/20/2014 8:18 AM buildings look run down. 2.) bring in more restaurants, and potentially some more upscale restaurants. there are some wonderful places there (Magda Luna is amazing, the Medeterainian place next door is great, starbucks, and Village host), but there are also a lot of places that just don't seem to appeal to many people - we often wonder how they stay in business. 3.) Maybe have a "focus" for a portion of the businesses on the street- a "green and healthy' focus. So merchants that support green efforts (goodwill is actually a good example of that), and healthy eateries. Add some Vegan and Vegetarian restaurants (beyond One Se Raw). Broadway could be know as the "healthy" vibrant place to go. 840 affordable retail, trader foes, 9/20/2014 8:17 AM 841 I'd like to see the landscaping and sidewalk maintenance be done more consistently. I would like the ordinance 9120/2014 8:09 AM that limits 2nd floor use to be eliminated so that therapists and other health care professionals do not need special variances at considerable cost. I'd like to see more publicity and public awareness of the great variety of shops and services that are available on Broadway. 842 Several shops/restaurants look shabby and uninviting. Need a redo in front. Signalfintersection at Broadway and 9/20/2014 8:01 AM California needs a total redo. (A traffic hassle) Very few "quality" restaurants and shops. 843 ' less spa/massage parlors/nail salons' more parking - same amount of attention given to Broadway as given to 9/20/2014 7:40 AM Burlingame Avenue (i.e., same streetscape as Burlingame Ave, including pavers) ` move the Thursday night food trucks closer to Burlingame Ave 844 visually not enticing ... hodge podge of buildings need a unifying element 9/20/2014 7:38 AM 845 A good, fun, quality Mexican Restaurant (ala La Pinata a zillion years ago on Burlingame Ave) 9/20/2014 7:31 AM 846 Slow down traffic, install a stop sign and more food choices. 9/20/2014 7:24 AM 847 Outdoor dining. Boutiques. 9/20/2014 7:00 AM 848 Increase pedestrian only areas More diverse restaurant choices 9/20/2014 7:00 AM 849 larger grocery store submerge Caffrain tracks and divert Broadway traffic over to Camnelita to quiet traffic on 9/20/2014 6:45 AM Broadway complete Broadway interchange to 101 850 Make the street look more inviting. It seems outdated. 9/20/2014 6:42 AM 851 Nothing 9/20/2014 6:31 AM 852 Caltrain overpassill Better aesthetics (make it feel more inviting) 9/20/2014 5:04 AM 853 1 would like Broadway to be a different type of business district from the Avenue - something unique where 9/20/2014 4:44 AM people can go do somethings other than shopping for clothing items like possibly adding something like All Fired Up, an art gallery. 854 A good Mexican restaurant, a frozen yogurt parlor, outdoor sitting 9/20/2014 4:39 AM 855 New infrastructure like budingame ave with nicer streetscape and cleaner sidewalks 9/2012014 3:21 AM 856 1) make sure all lights are lit on Broadway sign. 2) add clothing, shoe boutique/stares. 3) ? 912012014 2:38 AM 857 1. Cleaner store fronts and sidewalks. 2. 9/20/2014148 AM 35/48 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 858 Modernization, better parking 859 dirty side walks, street parking, new walgreens 860 More variety of quality restaurants, quality or well -know clothing stores, Trader Joss 861 1) The space and sidewalks in general feel tight and crowded. How to change that? In front of Magda Luna and Taste of Mediterranean, two very good and popular restaurants, there is a metal bar that blocks easy access from the sidewalk to the restaurant entrances. Can that be removed? 2) Shops such as the Grafeo (spelling?) Leather and the Avon, slip of a store, present a cluttered environment with their wares hanging out on the sidewalk. (The Broadway grocery store displays their fruits and vegetables in a neat, colorful and attractive way which offers a friendly, welcoming neighborhood feel.3) add more flowers, tree stapes. Beautify the space, make it easier to see the shops. The space feels crowded and cluttered like Clement street in SF. The store fronts often passed by without notice because they are bland or unattractive like Rainbow Nails. 862 Public transit. Caltrain especially during the week! More social activities. 863 The aesthetics and making it look more current like what was done on Burlingame Ave. The entrance to Broadway from 101 looks pretty dated. Also the landscaping near the overpass looks so neglected and doesn't seem to reflect Burlingame's character and affluence. Keeping Broadway clean, including emptying the trash cans which are often overflowing. 864 Allow Broadway to become a district of useful needs: hair salons, barber shop,: A Dollar Store Coffee shop that serves breakfast and lunches: Meat Market with poultry, fish .... shoe cobbler... 865 The sidewalks are Filthy! Sometimes my daughter and I will walk to Preston's for ice cream, and we will sit and eat on the concrete benches at Broadway and Laguna. It is really disgusting to sit there and look at the dirt while we eat. Preston's is really popular with families and it would be nice if the sealing areas on Broadway were cleaned on a regular basis. I am a stay-at-home mother and take my daughter out for walks every day. It is difficult for pedestrians to cross Broadway because the cars don't stop - even when I try to cross the street with a stroller. I would like to have at least one intersection in the middle of the Broadway Commercial District with a 4 -way stop so pedestrians can safely cross. I would add a 4 -way stop on Carmelite too; the cars go really fast down that street which makes it difficult for pedestrians. I love the Broadway arch that extends across the street, but aside from that the intersection of Broadway and California is not attractive and I would like to see some aesthetic improvements to highlight this important gateway to our city. It will be difficult with the gas stations there, but I think it is worth exploring. 866 Better restaurants and bars More retail shops (higher quality) Outdoor seating 867 Needs to be spruced up with new, exciting places to eat and shop Seems run down; can it be spruced up like Burlingame Ave? Hold more events there to draw attention to the vendors 868 More outdoor seating Discourage through traffic for 101 access Safer bicycle access Better garbage removal/updated recycling bin 869 1 love the feeling of our old town. Please dont change it to much. 870 Less vacant commercial prop. Would like to see Broadway closed to traffic Sunday mornings and the Farmer' s market on middle of road there. I would go and have breakfast or lunch there while shopping. 871 Grocery store -- a Trader Joes would be amazing! 872 Movie theatre Hardware store Train station 873 Local merchants are a benefit to this area, but it needs revitalization. It has not vibe or energy. Need to fill the storefronts with local merchants. 874 Empty spots, stores close early. Needs infusion of life! 875 1) Fewer cheap pedicure/manicure places. 2) Nicer building facades/ awnings 3) Bigger and more trees & plantings. 876 Difficult to say. It lacks dynamism and economic vitality, but... How to transfer these words in actions? 877 More quality restaurants. 9/20/2014 1:20 AM 9/2012014 12:57 AM 9/20/201412:48 AM 9/20/2014 12.46 AM 9/20/2014 12:34 AM 9/20/2014 12:08 AM 9119/2014 11:46 PM 9/19/2014 11:45 PM 9/19/2014 11:32 PM 9119/201411:32 PM 9/1912014 11:29 PM 9/19/2014 11:22 PM 9/19/2014 11:12 PM 9/19/201410:52 PM 9/19/201410:47 PM 9/19/201410:41 PM 9/19/201410:19 PM 9/19/2014 10:08 PM 9/19/2014 10:08 PM 911912014 10:07 PM 878 More unique stores. Fewer of the cheaper, tacky stores. More great restaurants. I also think you should add a 9/19/2014 10:02 PM Costco on the other side of 101. The tax base would help Burl. SO much, it would be a huge convenience to all of Bud. or Hillsdale. 36/48 879 880 881 882 883 884 885 886 887 888 889 A* 891 892 893 894 895 896 897 898 899 900 901 902 903 904 905 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY More good restaurants (not just high end) More parking( in the future)7 It seems dead and mn down Better restaurants - more family friendly and inviting Hardware store Athletic clothing and shoe store Bakery Having slightly wider sidewalks would be nice More services, quick meals, 1. Have the city officials care about Broadway like they do Burlingame ave. Seems the city has neglecter Broadway 2. More lighting at night, wider sidewalks like Broadway the way it is for the most part. More restaurants/entertainment. Better sidewalks Not overly inviting. Doesn't have the feel of someplace to hang out. Seems closed off from the rest of Burlingame Pedestrian Plaza, Better Public Transportation, outdoor business spaces. The difficulty I find parking on Broadway is that no one will let you out unless they want your parking slot. Drivers on Broadway are just plan rude and the shop owners are all nice. a sad situation. The shop I would most like to have added to Broadway is a bakery. I would like more police presence on Broadway just long enough for drivers to realize scofflaws will not be tolerated in beautiful Burlingame. Adjacent park space A legitimate brunch -oriented restaurant Weekday Caltrain access Legitimate "destination" stores on entrance corners (3 of 4 are currently unsightly gas stations - people can get their gas elsewhere) Legitimate sports bar type restaurant (a la Fauliline in Sunnyvale or Rogue in Menlo) General facelift of sidewalk areas More San Francisco quality restaurants and shopping would like more street fairs on broadway Local pharmacy, not chain. Loss of Broadway pharmacy was a big negative. Hardware store Right now though the entire street seems tired and out of date. Bakery More outside seating at restaurants Beautification of the street in general A good taquena. That the eastbound traffic signal be fixed. Currently when you are turning left (north) onto California Ave., you are supposed to yield to oncoming traffic. But your light turns yellow, then red while oncoming traffic stays green. Your natural assumption is that oncoming traffic is also seeing the yellow/red and so should stop, and that you need to clear the intersection immediately as cross traffic is about to begin. But the oncoming traffic keeps coming because it's still green for them. It's very dangerous. I've nearly been in an accident and I've witnessed a couple other near misses. I would like the construction there to be completed so patrons can have easier access to parking and stores/restaurants. Butcher shop sideways parking --dangerous with the cars pulling c:�: into you all the time more shops for gifts or clothes youth clothing would be great (teen, not baby) The consistency of "niceness in appearance of the buildings and the street could be improved Its actually kind of nice the way it is. I wish they could get some tenants in and keep them. I feel there is a lot of turnover. It looks less appealing generally when there is a lot of empty store fronts. I also wish they could update the buildings to make them look a letter better, newer. Some places now look kind of run down, outdated. It would be nice if there was some consistency to the look. I would also like to see them bring in another bar, something more upscale since right now there is just the pub. Too many hair salons better restaurants update the facade — modernize it. It looks drab and downscale. Needs paint and new signage Indoor -outdoor venues, better enforcement of traffic, continue holiday decorations 37/48 9/19/2014 9:50 PM 9/19/2014 9:49 PM 9/1912014 9:46 PM 9119;2014 9:46 PM 9/19/2014 9:44 PM 9/19/2014 9:40 PM 9/19/2014 9.39 PM 9/19/2014 9:37 PM 9/19/2014 9:37 PM 9/19/2014 9:37 PM 9/19/2014 9:33 PM 9/19/2014 9:32 PM 9/19/2014 9:32 PM 9/19/2014 9:31 PM 9/19/2014 9 28 PM 9/19/2014 9:27 PM 9/19/2014 9:24 PM 9/19/2014 9:23 PM 9/19/2014 9:22 PM 9/19/2014 9:22 PM 9/19/2014 9:21 PM 9/19/2014 9:21 PM 9/19/2014 9:14 PM 9119/2014 9:12 PM 9/19/2014 9:02 PM 9/19/2014 9:02 PM 9/1912014 9:02 PM i � i BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 906 1) More good quality restaurants -NO CHAINS/NO FAST FOOD 2) Build more local community on Broadway. 9/19/2014 9:00 PM Encourage more walking and shopping by closing streets on some weekends or evenings. 3) Tao many nail/beauty salons. Put a moratorium on those and remove the one on restaurants!!!! 907 Vibrant stores like Burlingame Ave. -bakery, stationary store, children's clothing, Apple Store or other national 9/19/2014 8:59 PM stores to draw people in to the area. Updated storefronts -color! Drop the heavy consignmentldiscount store focus—shopping feel is not vibrant. 908 Better shops for general merchandise, better inexpensive restaurants, spruce it up and make it more Inviting like 9/19/2014 8:59 PM for outdoor seating. 909 No comment 9/19/2014 8:59 PM 910 - Better transit connectivity with Millbrae Caltrain Baby Bullet- driving through the main Broadway strip towards 9/19/2014 8.57 PM the highway is really at odds with ped. traffic and slanted parking. If you made better off street parking and "Burlingame Ave"d the street, might improve the path (although ped. traffic wouldn't change). - GET SOMEONE TO DO SOMETHING WITH BRIO!! It's just sad how terribly dead of a resource it is. When it was Pisces, they did a great job with soundproofing, presuming that's still the case. 911 More locally owned businesses Less housing More parking spots 9/19/2014 8:55 PM 912 1 don't know - maybe a clothing boutique. 9/19/2014 8:55 PM 913 Would like to see continued refurbishment of the storefronts. Wider sidewalks for more outdoor seating? 9/19/2014 8:53 PM 914 More variety of restaurants, larger lost grocery store. Improve traffic flow to and from highway 101 - maybe flow 9/19/2014 8:51 PM to Califon!a Ave and not directly to Broadway. Add more parking. 915 Less restaurants Less lackey shops with merchandise hanging outside 9/19/2014 8:45 PM 916 Remove gas station on EI Camino Add a good bakery where they bake onsite Toystore 9/19/2014 8:44 PM 917 Plantings to spruce up the Broadway entrance to Starbucks.

Disappointed that a great space is being taken up by a pilates place. Could always use 9/19/2014 8:34 PM another food venue. 922 Broadway has far too many long term vacancies. I know that somebody (the Planning Commision maybe?) has 9/19/2014 8:31 PM discouraged office space on Broadway and I understand the reasoning IF Broadway was healthy. It's not and hasn't been for years. 923 1) Businesses being held responsible for cleaning up their fronts, or have them pay for WEEKLY CIN 9/19/2014 8:28 PM REGULAR CLEANUPS. It's horribly unclean walking the sidewalks. eg: Broadway Prime, Preston's 2) Either the CITY should be in charge of store fronts landscape or store owners. Whoever it is, it should be done on a regular basis. 924 Needs updating and revitalization Needs more, nicer retail stores Outdoor eating areas with rest: -ants 9/19/2014 8:28 PM 925 More/Better dining options "Fresh" look (appears a but ren down now) Less traffic 9119,2014 8:21 PM 926 The empty stores and offices occupied. We def need a sushi restaurant on the ave, also all employees of 9/19/2014 8:15 PM businesses on Broadway need to park away from the ave at some remote lot. I live just off Paloma. There is a particular restaurant down the street that their employees take up way too many spots on Paloma. 927 Clean up street/landscaping. Clean up storefront architecture. Remodel/improve the awful architecture of the 9/19/2014 8:14 PM building where the Magda Luna restaurant is. 928 Decent restaurants Nicer curb appeal Better parking 9!19/2014 8:14 PM 929 There are many empty stores (that stay that way for months, even years). The overall feel/facade of Broadway 9/19/2014 8:13 PM needs an update. It feels like the forgotten sibling; in comparison to Burlingame Ave. It needs to be more contemporary (including the Broadway sign). i � i Spin studio, no bars. - 942 Just pretty it up a bit -Something for non -drinking oriented entertainment. 9/19/2014 7:41 PM 943 Leave it alone it is fine. 944 I have none at this time. 945 Many of the other restaurants seem outdated and not very appealing (sometimes bed of the menu, ambiance, or both). The general appeal of the blocks isn't very nice. It is not very cohesive aesthetically from one block to the next and there is definitely a lack of good retail stores! Oh and it could really use a great open (meaning inside/outside) Brunch place or at the very least a place to grab bagels and coffee! 946 Really need Caltrain to resume weekday stops in order to make it a viable district. It just doesn't seem to make sense that its a weekend -only destination. Given the choice, on the lunch hour during the week, it is much more time -saving to have a quick lunch on Broadway where the parking is cheaper and more plentiful during that time of the day. Also the restaurants need to stop fighting the food trucks; they are here because people want more variety without having to fight for a parking spot near Burlingame Ave. 947 The original Broadway was more appealing. The new "direction" makes me not want to shop on Broadway as much. 948 More modem stores, all of budingame is lacking parking, more spaces 949 More restaurants _ 950 1)Old business and vacant lots with little value. 2) terrible traffic getting on/off 101. 3)we need a park or playground for kids.

The problems are compounded when people block traffic to wait for a parking spaces and/or make left turns. Occasionally there are backups that even block the EI Camino intersection. It would be nice to see a bit more attention/funds contributed to maintaining the landscaping - while there are planters the plants are mostly dead or nearly dead! 953 Better quality stores or for it to be known as aplace to go for XYZ. If it's a dining destination, new, and more contemporary, restaurants, bars and cafes. Broadway needs revitalization, and for the store fronts to be linked aesthetically. Certain areas like the front of Wells Fargo and the strip of stores that houses Magdalunas are ugly (though Magdalunas is a fabulous place to eat!). Existing restaurants should be encouraged to'freshen up' both their decor and their menus.

We need new'hof restaurants to open on Broadway like Delfina and Blue Line did on Bgame Ave. 2. Family 9/1912014 6:55 PM Friendly restaurants. 3. More womens & childrens shopping options- boutiques, clothes, etc. Leave the chain stores on Bgame Ave. 955 More restaurants and a variety of them. 9/19,12014 6:55 PM 956 Update it so its more modern. Entice new shops & restaurants to open.

Castro St in Mountain View downtown is a good example. 9/19/2014 6:25 PM 966 Improved restaurants that are more like Burlingame Ave, i.e. Delphina piaa 9/19/2014 6:21 PM 967 More good restaurants Clothing stores Better produce 911 9/201 4 6:20 PM 968 - more bench seating & outdoor community space — ideally close off to traffic as a promenade and recreational 9/19/2014 6:19 PM area, ex. communal outdoor seating for restaurants, small tables that have chess/checkers painted on them, bocce ball, garden - encourage the older restaurants to update & make it more inviting, so even nor locals are interested to bring their business - weekly community gathering, ex. farmer's market, live music (local/neighborhood bands/school groups), invite artists to share work weekly for free 969 Fewer empty storefronts! 9/19/2014618 PM 970 Clean the sidewalks Community functions, Burlingame museum? Enough nail joints Fewer vacant storefronts, X911912014 6:11 PM are we at a tipping point? Decent hardware store Restaurants are about the right number but only a few are worth returning to. Folks like Prestons but it is dated and in my view and my last visit the ice cream looked melted and unappealing. Can we move one of the yogurt joints over from the Ave? A pub that did not smell, a place to stop for a drink. Brio had a nice barto hang out at. 971 More regular food options. Less junky looking stores. No more Asian restaurants! 9119120146:11 PM 972 - less junk shops better and more parking for the handicapped restrict commercial trucks during daytime/early 9119/2014 6:08 PM evening hours that extend onto the street beyond marked spaces. have them make deliveries at night. 973 Would definitely go more often if parking was easier - for example - I will often drive past the Ave to go to a 9/19/2014 6:07 PM restaurant or cafe just because parking is a pain. 974 123 _ 9/19/20146:07 PM 975 The sidewalks always seem really dirty The traffic is not pedestrian friendly Burlingame in general is missing a 9/19/2014 6:03 PM goad old bbq or rotisserie like chicken chicken... I would go to a restaurant like this a couple days a week. Some of the buildings are rundown. The block with I piccolo is the best looking. 976 1) A theater 2) More shopping 9/19/2014 6:02 PM 977 (1) Parking could be improved and enforced (trucks often do not ft in the spaces). (2) Sidewalks should be 9/19/2014 6:00 PM widened. (3) Restaurants should have more space to provide outside dining. 978 better restaurants, better parking, betting stores 9/19/2014 5:58 PM 979 9 9/19/2014 5:49 PM 980 Driving on Broadeay is difficult with many distractions of cars pulling into traffic, people crossing and a narrow 9/1912014 5:47 PM street. Too many nail salons and candy stores 981 more neighborhood shops to fill empty stores is not chain stores like Burlingame Ave. 9/19/2014 5:47 PM 01FER BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 982 Not sure. 9/19/2014 5:47 PM 983 Bakery, hardware store or dime store (they worked for years), automotive store. 9/19/2014 5:46 PM 984 N/a - 9/19/2014 5:44 PM 985 Better parking Change/manage direction of streets feeding into Broadway It's bookended by gas stations on both 9/19/2014 5:42 PM ends ... doesn't immediately give a welcoming feel 986 More greenery (trees) More outside sitting areas 9/19/2014 5:39 PM 987 Convenient public transit between Burligame Ave and Broadway Ave. 9/19/2014 5:39 PM 988 1) Curb appeal needs to improve. Some things seem easy—if the store is unused, encourage the front windows 9/19/2014 5:38 PM be covered over. Plant some trees. Perhaps more difficult to get done, the signs with store names need to be better looking, many are old and weather-beaten, And obviously, a complete cosmetic re -do like was done on Budingame Ave would be amazing 2) Access to 101 should not be directly through Burlingame Ave. It is too busy and congested a street to accommodate a vibrant duster or shops and restaurants 3) More restaurants 989 1 would like to see more "Mom and Pop" stores, like a stationery store. I would like to see the old Hardware store 9/19/2014 5:34 PM come back. I would like a nice women's clothing store or resale, second hand store. 990 It would be good to see the surrounding blocks to Broadway Ave. increasingly built out to commercial property. 9/19/2014 5:33 PM 991 1) Limit the number of nail salons! If one goes out of business, do not allow another one to replace it. There are 9/19/2014 5:32 PM simply too many given the limited number of commercial spaces. 2) Improve the landscaping around the trees and stares. Earthbeam has done a wonderful job in that regard. 3) Consider re-establishing the Farmers Market on Capuchino. Off the Grid has done a greatjob of getting residents out and about. 992 Updated storefronts, better lighting at night (inviting people to stop), more parallel parking (less angle parking) 9/19/2014 5:27 PM 993 General clean up 9/19/2014 5:27 PM 994 A large, typical grocery store that is open extended hours - not a specialty store, like we already have. The return - 9/19/2014 5:26 PM of a hardware store. 995 More upscale merchandise. 9/19/2014 5:25 PM 996 More activity businesses like Pilates, family run stores like toy store and bakeries/yogurflcupoake places, less 9/19/2014 5:22 PM average restaurants, nail/salons and random clothing stores 997 1. So many empty stores- it's a shame. 2. More cafe type restaurants and/or an upscale bar 9/19/2014 5:22 PM 998 - Attract more non -local visitors (this is difficult due to the lack of a critical mass of shops) 9/19/2014 5:21 PM 999 Add a good Bakery. A hardware store. Improve parking 9/19/20145:20 PM 1000 More variety and higher quality of restaurants. Better traffic circulation (too many cars on narrow street, would be 9/19/2014 5:20 PM better if parallel and side streets were more convenient to use). 1001 First and foremost, a way to "calm" the through traffic, mainly from 101 headed east along the street Work with 911 912 014 5:19 PM Caltrain to restore a weekday morning and evening service stop at the train station Better directional signage for parking lots 1002 Need street improvements similar to Burlingame Avenue. Better landscaping. Need more community events like 9/19/2014 5:19 PM the Farmers Market on Park twice a week. Need Broadway Train Station to open again. People go to Burlingame Avenue for the ambience and to shop for clothes, books, gift items, candy, and go to bars, restaurants, and cafes. It's lively - that's what Broadway needs. 1003 - More kids clothes and shoe stores 911 912 014 5:17 PM 1004 More interesting places 9/19/2014 5:17 PM 1005 -. More seating for elderly. Public art- eg, murals, sculpture Separate Broadway and the railroad tracks with an 9/19/2014 5:16 PM overpass or bridge. 1006 Parking Affordable gift shops Less Asian cuisine 9/19/2014 5:14 PM 1007 More parking 9/19/2014 5:11 PM 1008 more upscale shoppping street improvement more parking 9/19/2014 5:10 PM 41/48 1009 1010 1011 1012 1013 1014 1015 1016 1017 1018 1019 1020 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY Need a larger grocery store that can serve the community and patrons doing business in the area. Consider making the street pedestrian only; add parking structures; widen sidewalks like Burlingame Avenue Stop the commercial stores..... Who needs a Pilates studio on the corner? All the property owners need to stop raising rents and stop driving out the smaller stores!! The street is a major thorough fare into Burlingame. As soon as you get off the freeway all you see is car dealerships and the gad awful rusty 'Broadway' sign. The street looks shabby, old, ran down. It needs a face lift. It is such a major intersection of the town and it's just not attractive period. Less Traffic More parking space More main theme and decoration , especially the sign of "welcome to Broadway " is out dated More diverse stores easier parking fewer empty store fronts More parking More bars and restaurants. A hardware store would be nice. Another general store in addition to Walgreens would be nice. 1, Fewer Nail salons 2. Do not close the Capucino Post Office 3. More than one florist shop Better shops. Better quality restaurants. Broadway at California Dr. - an absolute nightmare, total pain to cross. Backs -up very easily, trains, etc, ...and YES, I know you have plans to build a new overpass. But not completed until 201699? 1 think I read this ... this should be done within 12 months in my mind In More bars_ __.. Nothing 9/1912014 5:08 PM 9/19/2014 5:07 PM 9/19/2014 5:05 PM 9/19/2014 5:02 PM 9/19/2014 5:02 PM 9/19/2014 5:00 PM 9/19/2014 5:00 PM 9/19/2014 4:59 PM 9/19/2014 4:57 PM 9/19/20144:54 PM 9/19/2014 4:54 PM 9/19/2014 4:52 PM 1021 Better stores/small brand name stores, better restaurants, better looking/more modem storefronts. 9/19/2014 4:52 PM 1022 Updated storefronts and landscaping Higher -end restaurants Better traffic flow 9/19/2014 4:52 PM 1023 the caltrain tracks should be raised above broadway so trains don't block traffic when they pass the big historic 9/19/2014 4:50 PM broadway sign (half circle) should be taken down. It looks old and un -inviting. the wallgreens is an eyesore, it's parking lot should be open to the public (non-walgreens customers) the mix of restaurants is good, but the food quality in some is poor. 1024 Area generally modernized More variety in types of stores More full service banking 9/19/2014 4:49 PM 1025 better quality restaurants Indy bookstore Indy/art movie house, little theater 9/1912014 4:48 PM 1026 -why so many vacant empty stores ? looks like town hit hard times, but that is not the rase. -Broadway Caltrain 9/19/2014 4:46 PM Station reopened during weekday commute hours -more variety of restaurants/bars -looks dated, something from the 1960s -additional parkingllot/structure ? 1027 - nicer stores - better restaurants - mom attractive storefronts 9/19/2014 4:45 PM 1028 Better stores Clean up vacant spaces Too much traffic with train when it stops and freeway backup at commute 9/19/2014 4:45 PM times 1029 I'd like to see a greater variety of stores. I'd like to see a more inviting streetscape. I wish the whole block looked 9/19/2014 4:44 PM more like Earthbeam with tables, benches and plants surrounding their store. The sidewalks, etc. are Broadway are DIRTY. It would also be nice ff Broadway had a little more nightlife. Things shut down pretty early. 1030 More restaurants, unique shops for people rather than dogs (ie, less dog groomers), 9119/20144:43 PM 1031 Need more variety in retail but not sure that it is feasible Make area more visually appealing ?landlords need to 9/19/20144:43 PM spend some money on exterior Reduce all of the vacant space 1032 Business fronts need to spilled up. The street and business took tired. Twinkle lights up and down the street at 9/19/2014 4:41 PM night?? 1033 Depends on the goal... Is this an extension of Burlingame Ave or a completely different space? 9/1912014 4:41 PM 1034 It is not attractive as Burlingame Ave is. 9/19/2014 4:41 PM 1035 - Parking fees lower - how about copying Palo alta with 2 him free 9/1912014 4:41 PM 42/48 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 1036 Upkeep, better maintained shops, cleaner feel. More restaurants, especially kid friendly restaurants would be 9/19/2014 4:40 PM great. Maybe one or two more higher end stores to upscale it a bit. 1037 1 would visit the Broadway Commercial District more often if it were more convenient to pads there. I do not go to 9/19/2014 4:40 PM the Broadway Commercial District as often as I would like to, because parking is too difficult. 1038 A bar with a relaxed atmosphere that has live jou Another up -scale restaurant 9/19/2014 4:39 PM 1039 A couple higher -end restaurants would be nice. 9/19/2014 4:39 PM 1040 Greater variety of restaurants/bars. Greater variety of stores. 9/19/2014 4:37 PM 1041 hardware store, normal clothing store, better diner 9/19/2014 4:37 PM 1042 more restaurants, more stores, improved streetscape 9/19/20144 37 PM 1043 A nicer street front like we have on the Avenue. 9/19/2014 437 PM 1044 Additional stores: Hardware/home repair store, sports bar (similar to American Bull). 9/19/2014 4:36 PM 1045 None. Please don't make Burlingame more pretentious than it already is. 9/19/2014 4:36 PM 1046 Pretty run down looking 9/19/2014 4:36 PM 1047 The street needs a bit of updating. Compared to Burlingame Ave. it looks like it was left behind 20 years. Store 9/19/2014 4:35 PM fronts and awnings are a bit shabby. There are stores that are empty and have been for a long time. This looks bad... landlords should try to work out incentives for new businesses to move in. The sidewalks need to be powerwashed or something. 1048 needs updating - 9/19/20144:35 PM 1049 better restaurants more clean and fresh feeling. Convenience shops and services. I often stop in the district on 9/19/2014 4:34 PM my way to work or way back. 1050 more hip stores more variety of stores should be updated 9/19/2014 4:33 PM 1051 More parking, street face lift and a good anchor store 9/19/2014 4:33 PM 1052 - There are some strange, cheap -looking locally -owned boutiques/shops. This would be OK if there were more 9/19/2014 4.32 PM mainstream, higher -end locally -owned shops, but we don't seem too have many of those on Broadway. A few of the boutiques are cringe -worthy. There was a store called Ellie (I think) that closed. It had a higher -and look than most of the remaining boutiques, so that was a shame. The "Broadway Avenue" sign that overhangs the Broadway/Califomia intersection needs to be replaced with something attractive, as it is an eyesore. I understand the sign has history, but that is far outweighed by how junky it looks. Much like curb appeal for a home, updating the Avenue's entrance could create a much more appealing experience. Improving that one element could improve the entire feel of the Avenue, distinguishing the walking/shopping section of Broadway Avenue from the car dealership/ gas station section. 1053 Many of the stores are outdated and don't offer products that appeal to our younger family. We do walk to 9/19/2014 4:32 PM Broadwalk for coffee at II Picolo or occasionally for lunch, but there are few other stores that keep us shopping there. I would love to see some independent, trendier stores. 1054 design is dated almost no outdoor seating on street for eating lack of investment. Level of invest is not in balance 9/19/2014 4:32 PM with Burlingame avenue 1055 Don't know 9/19/20144:31 PM 1056 update the store fronts. Broadway needs a "big draw", not sure what that would be, but the trashy places need to 9/19/2014 4:31 PM go. 1057 Buildings look run down. Owners need to fix up store fronts. 9/19/2014 4:31 PM 1058 Not sure at present. 9/19/2014 4:30 PM 1059 In general, I would like to see the Broadway Commercial District replicate the Burlingame Avenue District in 9/19/2014 4:29 PM every way but on a smaller scale. Parking structures at the existing parking lots on Chula Vista and Capuchin would be beneficial. 1060 One or two more nice (or at least sit -dawn type) restaurants, rather than mostly quick service restaurants. 9/19/20144:28 PAA 1061 i dont spend enough time there to comment 9/19/2014 4:28 PM Eum. BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 1062 Dont like the angle parking Hard to see the stores Too many 1 way streets, so hard to circle around 1063 A little more attention to our street maintenance and the beauty of Broadway. People often comment that Broadway is the stepchild to Burlingame Ave. That street seems to get the most attention. 1064 Retail 1065 Parking is always a problem and it changes our choice of where to go to eat Disturbed that I received a ticket for parking over a white line when every other vehicle was parked over the lines also including the cop car. Some spaces cut at weird angle. I think that is now resolved, at least on Burlingame Ave but it's annoying; just trying to make revenue. Come on Would like a chipolle 1066 No more smoke or alcohol shops. We liked the hardware when it was there We would also use a co center 1067 1068 1069 1070 1071 1072 1073 1074 1075 py stationary, or office supply store! While there is variety, it's pretty low quality. The only places of value to me and my family are the bank, village host, Starbucks, Broadway Prime and Earth beam. The storefronts are poorly maintained, most signs/awnings are old, window displays look dusty and unkept, and (aside from Rocca and Broadway Prime) the restaurants are terrible. If Broadway Merchants wants to maintain a more'mom and pop store' feel to Broadway, they need to look to Ban Carlos' Laurel Avenue and the quality establishments they attract and standards they maintain. The whole area needs a serious facelift and greater uniformity among storefronts. It would be beneficial to the street if traffic related to 101 were actively routed away from the street (if there is a way) to reduce auto traffic. Excess auto traffic is the number one problem in my opinion More senior discounts, downtown parking and pedestrian only days, affordable supermarkets that include local, organic, and ethnic gourmet foods. Less vacancies Heavy traffic during commute, weekend hours Some specialty store seem tired, past their prime More trees, a taqueda More variety in stores, some kind of an anchor restaurant that would be a major draw, can't think of a third thing! ...More parking Additional food options - a true taqueria, dessert speciality shop, deli More retails options Additional open hours including Sunday 9119/2014 4:28 PM 9/19/2014 4:28 PM 9/19/2014 4:27 PM 9/19/2014 4:26 PM 9/19/2014 4:25 PM 9/19/2014 4:25 PM 9/19/2014 4:25 PM 9/19/2014 4:23 PM 9/190014 4:23 PM 9/19/20144:21 PM 9/19/20144:21 PM 9/19/20144:21 PM 9/19/2014 4:20 PM The lower end of Broadway, toward California Ave, feels sadder than the upper and. Why is that? There's 9/19/2014 4:20 PM certainly a 1950s -1960s era building on the south side currently housing the best Mexican restaurant on the peninsula, Magda Luna, and a great Middle Eastern restaurant (both locally owned), but that building is an eyesore. It completely cuts off the flow and I couldn't be more happy that those two restaurants are making it work. Not too useful for your survey, I understand, but it does point to the lack of design oversight and aesthetics in the area. 1076 _ cleaner 1077 more parking spaces 1078 Better restaurants. The restaurants now are dated and not appealing. Better traffic flaw. More family oriented. 1079 New restaurants, widen sidewalks and switch to parallel parking (like Burlingame Avenue), sidewalk seating 1080 Additional restaurant options. Larger scale office space would be useful as well. 1081 Updated store fronts Nicer stores Wider sidewalks 1082 Remove cars and create a pedestrian mall Free parking Smarter traffic control at California entrance 1083 Wider selection of stores, more casual food options. 1084 fewer empty stores 1085 updated appearance 1086 The whole place needs to be upgraded - the pavements, the parking, the stores. It all feels very old and not well maintained. 1087 better traffic control, eliminate meters, under pass the trains 9/19/2014 4:20 PM 9/19/2014 4:20 PM 911 9/2 014 4:19 PM 911 912 014 4:19 PM 9/19120144:19 PM 9119/2014 4:18 PM 9/19/2014 4:17 PM 9/1912014 4:17 PM 9/19/2014 4:17 PM 9/19120144:16 PM 9/19/2014 4:16 PM 9119/2014 4:15 PM BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 1088 Foot traffic is now so great its an hazard. Pedestrians overcrowd the sidewalks and walk right out in front of cars 9/19/2014 4:15 PM which are in motion. I've seen vehicles legally begin to make turns and pedestrians (although in crosswalk) don't allow them to complete the tum and just walk out in front of them; the near -misses are scary. 1089 - better restaurant options better flow of cross streets and broadway. can be confusing what is one way which 9/19/2014 4:15 PM way vs both ways. this also causes bad flow wl pedestrians trying to go across broadway 1090 More restaurants. More clothing stores. 9/19/2014 4:14 PM 1091 General freshening and cleanup. Treescape. More parking 9/19/2014 4:14 PM 1092 Nicer/newer buildings and better / higher quality establishments. Cleaner / nicer establishments. 9/19/2014 4:13 PM 1093 1 like the balance already 9/19/2014 4:13 PM 1094 Restaurants. More/ better choices. A microbrewery. Basic clothing store such as the Gap. 9/19/2014 4:13 PM 1095 More interesting stores, restaurants with outside seating 9/19/2014 4:11 PM 1096 Life, vibrancy color 9/19/20144:11 PM 1097 Lack of good dining options. 9/19/2014 4:10 PM 1098 Gift shops 9/19/20144: 10 PM 1099 - more outdoor lounge/dining space - fewer vacant spaces - more pe lestrain and bike friendly (better sidewalks, 9/19/2014 4:09 PM bike racks, etc.) 1100 1. A common gathering area for residents to meet. 2. 1 think Burlingame Avenue should have been closed off (no 9/19,2014 4:09 PM car access) and used Howard as the main thorough fare (to compliment the Safeway area). While Broadway could do the same, it is harder because it is an artery to the freeway. 3. Keeping the streets clean. 1101 How about some sitting areas like in Paris. Tables with checkers/chess boards How about trying some recycled 9/19/2014 4:08 PM materials in benches and art, something to get someones attention. Something to make someone stop and look. Maybe some wall art. How about a book exchange? Maybe an over the top little free library? http://Iittlefreelibrary.org/ How about trim the trees, give them shape. And while I am thinking of it, the signage is not very goad, if your in a car the U-turn signs are random. Hay, maybe a drinking fountain, now that's something you don't see everyday. How about a certain days allow sidewalk signs for the shops. Clone a side street and allow a restaurant to have a "street dinner' kinda like Belden place in the city. Was that more then three? 1102 Updated (more hip) stores. Updated fagade/planters for trees (Broadway seems like a dinosaur to me) Wider 9/19/2014 4:08 PM walkways allowing for more (and nicer) outdoor bistro sitting without feeling like you are on a roadway. 1103 Better quality restaurants Nicer streetscape 9/19/20144:08 PM 1104 More shops and restaurants. Updating the look. 9/19/2014 4:07 PM 1105 Bakery, upgrade in the look of the store fronts 9/19/2014 4:07 PM 1106 Improve physical appearance. 911912014 4:07 PM 1107 Double or triple parking spaces Make Broadway street one-way only Widen the sidewalks 9/19120144:06 PM 1108 More trees, cleaner streets, more diverse eateries 9/19/2014 4:06 PM 1109 Better landscaping, cleaner sidewalks,more parking,parking meters as they are presently - not marked sps - s 9/19/2014 4:05 PM as on Burlingame ave 1110 Better retail, fewer empty storefronts, fewer poorly maintained storefronts, more modern/hip restaurants. 9/19/2014 4:05 PM 1111 It is out dated. The store fronts are not inviting. Not walkable. Such a huge miss since so many people live so 9119/2014 4:05 PM close by. With all the great neighborhood areas (San Carlos, Downtown Burlingame Ave) I don't understand why Broadway is so old and dated. 1112 More restaurants 9/19/20144:05 PM 1113 1.Parking for residents whom live on Broadway is neatly impossible, with out having to park many blocks away. 9/19120144:04 PM Permit parking for residents... 2. Regulations of no bicycles on sidewalks enforced, on Broadway. People still do this frequently. 3. Regulations on how large of a vehicle may park on Broadway. Often, large trucks park here, stick out into the street snarling traffic. 45/48 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 1114 Add another grocery store that people can walk to that has more selection than what's there now. Put in a 9/19/2014 4:04 PM bookstore. 1115 a bakery bookstore 9119/2014 4:04 PM 1116 No vacant storefronts"' A hardware store More restaurants 9/19/2014 4:04 PM 1117 Caltrain Access 9/19120144:04 PM 1118 Could use some trendy clothes stores Frozen yogurt store A quality Mexican restaurant with real Mexican food 9119/2014 4:03 PM and bar Giants dugout store 1119 (1) More parking, (2) better grocery/more specialty food stores (prepared foods etc.), (3) special even days/nights 9/19/2014 4:03 PM to attract more business. Suggestions: first Friday all stores stay open late, special holiday shopping days with activities, more festivals/events. 1120 Italian foods store - fresh pasta, sauces, etc.... Gelato store More parking 9/19/2014 4:03 PM 1121 bakery, more restaurants 9/1912014 4:03 PM 1122 A streetscape remodel like Burlingame Ave, a more modem, fresh gateway point than the old brown Burlingame 9/19/2014 4:02 PM sign. Wish two big gas stations weren't the first thing visitors see when they cross the tracks. I do love the white lights on the trees lit up in the evenings. 1123 Better quality of restaurants 9/19/20144:02 PM 1124 - More parking 9/19/2014 4:02 PM 1125 Do not add office space, do not add any more Starbuck or Walgreens type businesses keep them to local 9/19/2014 4:01 PM business owners so that we do not get too commercialized, they can go on over to Burlingame Avenue, keep Broadway small and local and affordable so we can promote local people to open businesses in this area. 1126 More diverse businesses, general offices, dental or medical. Too many competing eating and coffee 9/19/2014 4:01 PM establishments - we have enough or too many now for the area. No more spas or nail salons; too many already. 1127 Wider sidewalks, parking in other areas, less traffic, upgraded like Burlingame Ave 9/19!2014 4:01 PM 1128 1 like the mom and pop stores but it would be nice to have a few more chain type stores. The sidewalks are a little 9/19/2014 4:00 PM beat up but as stated before. 1 would want them widened if that meant parallel parking. 1129 more small businesses independently owned 9/19/2014 4:00 PM 1130 More parking, pharmacy, maybe a regular market 9!1912014 4:00 PM 1131 Not sure. We just moved to Bgame, but we are closer to Bgame Ave than Broadway, so we always go up there. 9/19/2014 3:59 PM Unless we want to eat at Shabu Shaba or wine taste at the bottle shop or get Mexican food 1132 Parking, more commercial variety (book store, microbrewery, indoor/outdoor cafe with room for kids to run 9/19/2014 3:59 PM around. 1133 Eliminate the packing meters. Actually, I might suggest removing traffic along Broadway completely or on 9/19!2014 3:59 PM sections and have people park on adjacent areas and drive around the area when trying to get to other destinations. This would promote it more as a social destination and walking location. 1134 Parking can sometimes be challenging but I'm not really sure what can be done about it. 9/19/2014 3:58 PM 1135 Better selection of restaurants. Less antique and used clothing stares 9/19/2014 3:57 PM 1136 upgradelbeautify the area more parking Burlingame should support Broadway businesses, not just Burlingame 9/19/20143:57 PM Ave 1137 Easier parking. Fix ratty looking store fronts. Alternative payment methods (credit card, smart phone) on meters. 9/19/2014 3:57 PM 1138 N/A 9/19/20143:57 PM 1139 Fewer empty storefronts. Fewer nail salons 9/19/2014 3:57 PM 1140 Fewer empty storefronts More outdoor space, either restaurants or parklets It could look a little more inviting and 9119/2014 3:57 PM updated BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 1141 it needs a bit of a face lift while maintaining it's charm. They need to fill the empty spaces- Would love to see 9119/2014 3:57 PM more casual dining options. It would also be great if the Broadway Cal Train station was available during the weekdays. 1142 No trucks or buses up or down Broadway. They are loud, messy and block traffic. There's simply not enough 9/19/2014 3:57 PM room. 1143 needs to be cleaner better parking better restaurants/stores 9/19/2014 3:56 PM 1144 The parking makes it a hassle to drive down since people drive slower than walkers when looking for a spot. 9/19/2014 3:55 PM Some of the really old places need to go. Update the facade on some buildings. 1145 A entirely new downtown! 9/192014 3:55 PM 1146 More Entertainment Current Stores Should have extended hours 9/19/2014 3:55 PM 1147 did 9/19/2014 3:55 PM 1148 Grocery store with basic offerings and fresh bread Healthy take out food (like Urban Bistro) 9/19/2014 3:54 PM 1149 more foot traffic, longer store hours, 9/19/2014 3:53 PM 1150 (none) 9/192014 3:52 PM 1151 More family friendly restaurants, more parking, more walkable/bike fiendly 9/19/2014 3:51 PM 1152 More stores. Miss Ellie boutique 911 9/2 014 3:51 PM 1153 Higher end retail 9/19/2014 3:50 PM 1154 - Nothing... it's great he way it is. X9/19/20143:49 PM 1155 A hardware store 9/19/2014 3:48 PM 1156 - Parking terrible, sidewalks too narrow, strange mix of businesses 9119/2014 3:47 PM 1157 n/a - 9/19/20143:47 PM 1158 Please finish the Banged roadwork! Its been a mess for far longer than the initially reported two years. Let's get 9/1912014 3:46 PM this mess over with. 1159 The empty shops filled with something useful. 9/19/2014 3:37 PM 1160 improved retail offerings. More bars and lounges. 9/1912014 3:33 PM 1161 1 would like to see murals painted on the sides of the large buildings. I would like to see an update/upgrade like 9/19/2014 3:28 PM Burlingame ave recently experienced. Please understand I don't wantt Broadway to look like Burlingame ave, as I love it's character. It would be nice to see upgraded sidewalks, etc. A Jamba Juice would be fantastic) 1162 More and better restaurants, wine bar, higher end retail - 9/192014 3:16 PM 1163 More variety in types of shops More retail More inviting 9/19/2014 2:42 PM 1164 1) Fewer vacant store fronts and less redundancy in shops (too many salons, etc.). 2) Have the restaurant 9/192014 2:30 PM moratorium re-evaluated to allow restaurants to fill some of the open store fronts. 3) Better maintenance of the sidewalks to keep them cleaner. 1165 More housing and commercial to make it a viable district 9/19/2014 2:29 PM 1166 No thoughts at this time 9/19/2014 2:28 PM 1167 Get rid of that building at 1199 Broadway... poorly designed... always empty... A seriously good restaurant would 9/19/2014 2:22 PM be nice (not necessarily fancy or expensive, but where food is actually prepared instead of being frozen and merely heated)... maybe a really good dim sum place? More parking... cleaner sidewalks ... a post office where I can buy stamps from a vending machine! 1168 A little run down 9/19/2014 2:11 PM 1169 More casual restaurants, Bakery, pizzeria, del's any kind of family oriented food establishments. 9/19/2014 2:05 PM G. i BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 1170 1. 1 like the shopping, but would appreciate more variety, especially upscale options (only slightly more so — 9/19/2014 2:04 PM something better than the many thrift stores, but not necessarily high-end national chains) or appealing to a wider range of age groups, such as teens. 2. Wider sidewalks might encourage people to "hang out" mare. Especially if there were more options for outdoor cafes. 3. Gourmet specialty food shopping such as farmer's market, butcher, bakery, cheese shop would all get me to the neighborhood more. 1171 During the warm months, Burlingame Ave should be shut down and restaurants should be invited to put tables in 9/19/2014 1:52 PM the street for outdoor dining. Tiburon does this every year, and it is very popular. 1172 more retail variety keep sidewalks cleaner fix flashing crosswalk 911 9/2 014 1:43 PM 1173 nothing 9/19/2014 1:39 PM 1174 Street needs a makeover, freshening. Seems like stepchild of BG Ave. 9/19/20141 35 PM 1175 More interesting or upscale retail. Slightly better parking (but this isn't a huge problem). More fast food or takeout 9/1 912 014 1:33 PM food options 1176 More clothing!furniture shops updated bar/restaurants More flowers pots/cleaned up/painted buildings 9/19120141:32 PM 1177 More restaurant shops opened later at night 9/19/2014 1:29 PM 1178 Similar upgrade to Burlingame Ave Street Scape. More trees, specifically Sycamores. Improved tenants. Current 9/19120141:27 PM tenants bring little or zero value. Restaurants are bad. Rocca is ok. Not well maintained. Need a train over pass at Rollins and Broadway. Traffic is bad. Its more of an artery to 101. 1179 Filthy store fronts and junk stores, should be eliminated. It would be nice to see the front of the bars cleaned up. 9/19/2014 1:25 PM 1180 Keep the restaurants and coffee shops - add more variety of cuisines, and also a trendy wine barl 9/19/2014 1.22 PM 1181 A bakery, something similar to Copenhagen A hardware store. It was sad to see the old one leave. 9/19120141:18 PM 1182 The vacancies are unfortunate but not unexpected given the rental rates and economy. 9119/20141:15 PM 1183 Expand it past one street- give it a feel more like Burlingame Ave. Should expand north south a few blocks, if 9/19/2014 1:10 PM possible. 1184 More clothing stores - there is enough restaurants 9/1912014 1.05 PM 1185 Clothing Retailer, other misc. retailers 9119/2014 1:05 PM G. i BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY Any other comments? # Responses Date 1 It is my go to street for nails and hair. I love Cafe Figaro... Shabu hot pot is good. too bad no trains stop 11/3/2014 1:42 PM there ... but the Mercy to Bart bus needs more publicity - 2 Love to see a hobby store, doubt if it would be profitable. Miss the Halloween store. 10/31/2014 4:21 PM 3 It is a small area - caters to residents and encourages repeat business 10/31/2014 4:17 PM 4 Can't think of any landmarks on Broadway 10/31/2014 4:10 PM 5 Highness ok, but not to exceed four stories in height 10/31/2014 4:05 PM 6 Property owners to maintain the exterior of buildings, including awnings 10131/2014 3:55 PM 7 Broadway has a great local community feel 10/31/2014 3:52 PM 8 Too many unoccupied spaces 10/31/2014 3:49 PM 9 Our family does not want to see Broadway go through what you did to Burlingame Avenue 10/31/2014 3:43 PM 10 No more lower end restaurants. Try to entice a more upscale feeling to the area. Lower rents to entice. Spruce up 10/3112014 3:24 PM Broadway. 11 An adjacent playground would be attractive for families 10/31/2014 3:16 PM 12 Streets around Broadway are not well taken car of. 10/31/2014 3:13 PM 13 Look at Burlingame Avenue; take a hint from them but add a unique twist to Broadway. 10/31/2014 3:09 PM 14 Maintain small businesses No chains 10/31/2014257 PM 15 Problem is the small, independent retail stores can't compete with Safeway, OSH, etc. A good bookstore 10/31/2014 2:54 PM (new/used) would be nice. Restaurants are too expensive. Too many nailshops. Don't change to parallel parking. 16 Would be better if the street was pedestrian only 10/31/2014 2:44 PM 17 Make what has happened to Burlingame Ave does NOT transform Broadway into aplace for tourists and affluent 10/3012014 4.14 PM shoppers. The parking is terrible, the sidewalks are ugly and the stores do not serve the regulars in the community. 18 Landscaping looks lovely. Keep it up! 10/26/2014 1:58 PM 19 I'm not sure if it's possible to bring in more chain stores in a limited way. It would be great to have a few more, but 10/26/2014 9:54 AM without turning the whole street into chains. I would hate to lose Earmbeam, the Farmers Market, Preston's. Dylan's Salon, etc. 20 More Burlingame community activities taking place on Broadway. Everything is focused on Burlingame Ave. 10/23/2014 8:47 AM 21 1 highly recommend you to check out what Palo Alto did at town and country. That would be a great model and 10/21/2014 1:41 PM Renaissance for Broadway. 22 Remember not to cater to people who frequent the Ave.- remember that a little over 50% of residents are renters 1021/20141:29 PM which tells you what people are looking for is cost effective but not cheap! I like the hometown feel of Broadway as opposed to the hustle and bustle of the ave with snooty Hillsborough residents parading about- PLEASE NO Botiques or wide sidewalks for monster strollers BUT please place lights that work to were drivers of pedestrians crossing. 23 Don't touch Behan's. 1021/2014 12:23 PM 24 Thank you for doing this 10/21/201411:57 AM 25 Widening the street or changing the parking. Pedestrians and drivers need to behave better. 10/20/2014 5:06 PM 26 Sony to have missed the 10/20/2014 11:30 AM 1/22 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 27 1 grew up in Burlingame and visit often. l lived close to Broadway and visit every time I am home. 10/19/2014 8:43 PM 28 If there is an effort to impede traffic on Broadway and increase access on and off the freeway from California 10/19/2014 1:30 PM Drive, then improving Broadway's business streets might be a viable plan. 29 Mabey add underground parking 10/19/2014 8:06 AM 30 I hope that we don't lose the authentic, small town feel of the street. 10/18/2014 11:17 PM 31 When we go to Rooms Restaurant for lunch we should not have to run outside in the middle of our meal to feed a 10/18/2014 8:42 PM 1 hour meter. We spent a fair amount of money for lunch and topped it off with a $40.00 ticket- that makes you - not want to go and do business on Broadway. - 32 Broadway Ave just seems sleepy compared to neighboring Burlingame Ave. or downtown Millbrae. There's not 10/18/2014 1:01 PM much to draw me there beyond great Shabu Shabu. 33 Burlingame Avenue is such a "go -to" place. People expect Broadway to be the same but don't know if that will 1 011 8/2014 12:57 PM ever be. 34 You left off beauty shops -I 90 for facials on California and nails on Broadway -every week or every other week 10/18/2014 12:40 PM 35 Please help to revive this street. The stores and restaurants are so old. It's a shame that such a central area is 1 0/1 81201 4 12:39 PM hardly used. 36 1 like the fact that it is more friendly than the AVE, of course the young people in town want everything up to Hi 10/18/2014 10:48 AM tech standards. 37 - ADA parking near B'game Ave is TERRIBLE Why are the ADA parking spots on the far side of the parking lot 10/18/2014 10:10 AM behind the GAP 38 1 have lived within walking distance of Broadway since 1977. overall, the street has such a nice, neighborhood, 10/18/2014 9.51 AM - local character. there are a few great local businesses, a lack of name brand retail, which is good. however, that eclectic mix of uses that existed in 1980, has deteriorated over the years: it has been increasingly difficult for businesses to keep their doors open. there is not enough feet traffic for retail to be successful, unless it is a destination oriented retail use. (a shop that you already know about and go them specifically for that) I don't believe the parking to be the major problem, I think it's more an issue of there needing to be exciting stores, or things that will bring people to the street. once there, there are not enough other uses to make you want to walk the street. there could be more street-ariented activity, like it piccolo's outdoor seating, rocca's outdoor tables, the mexican restaurant's tables. then there is that architecturally horrible strip retail building where the mexican restaurant is located- where the gas station used to be years ago. this street historically was service-oriented. it has lost that variety that It once had. unbelievably, I once counted 22 restaurants between at Camino and califomia drive. it doesn't seem like it- most of these I would never go to. but amazing that there are so many. I think the issue is not necessarily needing more food, it's needing BETTER restaurants. that's not possible to legislate, but it is important to encourage it good retail usually only works when there's good foot traffic. Broadway has always been car -oriented, because of the access to 101. there should be an encouragement to get more pedestrian uses- encourage foot traffic, make places for people to be. the "beautification" project from some years ago didn't really do anything to encourage that. I'm not against more restaurants- that seems to have been an issue, but there really needs to be an encouragement for a variety of retail uses. less nail salons, less financial, etc. I miss the local hardware store and the old broadway market. the old mom & pop is gone, but the city can encourage and help promote that same sense of localness that still exists with some of the businesses. there is a possibility to really promote the local nature of Broadway- the "natural" downtown. 39 Love that the tourist have foot access to Broadway. Feet the street crossings are too congested (with ca..-, and 10/18/2014 9:22 AM not safe during peek driving times due to freeway accesses. 40 Woulod like to keep it as close to community feel as possible with locals owning and running the businesses. 10/18/2014 9:21 AM 41 Do NOT turn it into another Mall of America like Burlingame ave. 10/18/2014 9:20 AM 42 No more nail salons 10118/2014 8:43 AM 43 _ We mainly go there for Starbucks. Occasionally, shoe repair. Live in Hillsborough. 10/18/2014 8:05 AM 44 Don't want to lose Big Joes, Aji Yoshi's, Rocca, Grace Gardens. 10/18/2014 7:57 AM 45 Keep angled parking. Do NOT do the parallel parking like on Burlingame Ave. That would be a traffic nightmare 10/18/2014 7:27 AM trying to get to the freeway. 46 What impact will the new Broadway/101 exit have on the plans for the commercial district?? Are core working with 1 011 7/2 014 10:33 PM Cal Train and the state planner on this?? 2/22 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 47 I love our neighborhood and would be sad to see it get even more run down. The excess of cheap restaurants 10!17/2014 10:05 PM bring people from poorer areas but they just fill up parking eat and leave. It would be nice to have people browsing local shops and hopefully spending money an more than just food, enjoying a night out. 46 Broadway merchant area seems dated 10/17/2014 9:50 PM 49 We need to lift the moratorium on restaurants and have more retail spaces. The business licenses need to be 10/17/2014 5:11 PM used as intended not for what ever people what to use the space for. How is this even legal. Doesn't the city have an obligation to maintain the business licenses. If this was Burlingame Ave, it would not be tolerated. PLAY A PART ON BROADWAY!!! 50 We don't need to be another Burlingame Avenue 10/17/2014 5:01 PM 51 Also, creation of a left turn pocket at the West end Broadway at the intersection with EI Camino Real as well as 10117/2014 12:59 PM dedicated left turn lanes on ECR to enter Broadway off of ECR. 52 Broadway is the main exit to Burlingame and should look more enticing to our visitors 10/171201410:28 AM 53 1 live around the corner from Broadway Avenue and I just love the fact that its character. Actually, it's mini -Europe 10/17/2014 10:11 AM '. to me. Most important, factor is that this street is SAFE. I LOVE IT[ 54 Get to work -we need to upgrade and move forward to build a well connected, thriving community 10/17/2014 7:22 AM 55 The Burlingame Ave improvements are beautiful. However, I'm not sure this should be replicated on Broadway. 10/17/2014 5:59 AM Broadway's strength is as a place for local businesses and a local character to thrive. Many local businesses seem to be getting priced out of Burlingame Ave. We need a place for them or we risk losing some of the town's character. 56 More parking and benches needed 10/17/2014 5:31 AM 57 A beautiful bronze statue (of ???) on California near the Chevron station is completely hidden. Could this not be 10/16/2014 11:30 PM moved into a central "enter old town' area? 58 Hope the new 101 interchange design won't cause traffic backup onto Broadway. 1 011 612014 10:36 PM 59 In general, the street feels dingy and dated 10/16/201410:25 PM 60 1) Spruce the place up, and get shop/building owners to clean-up and be more accountable for the premises 10/1612014 7:41 PM around (and especially behind) their businesses. (That includes Starbucks, whose garbage is prevalent throughout its rear parking area). 2) Provide safer pedestrian walkways in between public parking lots and Broadway. 3) Attract designer -brand clothing stores and other kinds of storefrontage, besides coffee shops, restaurants, and beauty salons. 61 Need to do something with the block nearest the railway. Seems really down market and grubby; dirty salons, 10/1612014 7:36 PM old, dirty, unpopular restaurants etc. fit Broadway has so much potential. Many of us feel that Burlingame is the place to go to shop—somewhat like 10/162014 7:13 PM mall; but Broadway is where we go to "live"; go to weeknight dinners, grab a pint at Behans, take the kids to buy ice cream, etc. It's the "folksy main street" feeling many are looking for—a place to go with family and friends that is more laid back. 63 Offer incentives for building owners to keep rents lower to attract businesses. Make food and wine permitting 10/16/2014 7:10 PM easier for new restaurants to come to any broadway commercial space (not just previous restaurants) 64 If we are able to improve the quality of merchants on Broadway, how will we ensure that they thrive and stay? 10/16/2014 6:55 PM Seems that parking would need to be easier to find, and that somehow people need to be drawn to Broadway. 65 Time to update Broadway! 10/16/2014 5:11 PM 66 1 think it will always be compared to Burlingame Avenue so trying to be like Burlingame Avenue may not be the 10/16/2014 5:10 PM best bet. They have a lot more space to work with there. 67 How about cleaning Broadway's filthy sidewalks on a monthly basis? 10118/2014 5:02 PM 68 1 wish Broadway had a stop sign because it is very difficult to turn onto Broadway and is also a hassle for those 10/16/2014 4:56 PM trying to cross the street on foot. 69 Ggg 10/1612014 4:49 PM 70 1 like living near Broadway 10/16/2014 4:04 PM 3/22 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 71 1 just went to dinner on burlingame avenue and I saw such a change that I will never go there unless it's 10116/2014 3:45 PM necessary ! I hope that never happens on broadway. Its so expensive here to rent and the reason I stay close to Broadway is hat home town feeling I have here !!! 72 it is strange how many businesses fail to thrive. Many locations have been vacant for a very long time. One 10116/20141:33 PM wonders about rent vs building upkeep (many old buildings have not been renovated in many decades) 73 Broadway could use a children's activity center or children's store to draw more families. 10/162014 11:52 AM 74 Traffic is way too heavy not to have some traffic control on Broadway. Speeding is out of control and cars ignore 10/16/2014 11:15 AM pedestrians often. 75 It's a pretty nice downtown but you don't really need commercial office space or clothing stores, you need more 10/16/2014 8:45 AM restaurants to pick from and grocery stores. 76 There is a huge demand for putting more into Braodway What is the city doing? What a waste of a great 1 011 512 01 4 9:41 AM location!! 77 Can we make the train crossing a quiet zone? The frequent piercing train whistles frighten our toddler and take 10/142014 8:46 PM away from the experience. It also seems like there are a lot of salons for this one street. 78 Broadway needs a family style restaurant other than pizza. 10/14120143:16 PM 79 It is much more attractive than Bud!ngame Avenue. It has a village feel. 10/14/2014 3:00 PM 80 Train station operable more often There are a lot f empty stores - makes the neighborhood look a little depressed 10/14/2014 2:56 PM 81 All of the big delivery trucks not making Broadway deliveries should be routed to California drive off Highway 101 10114/2014 2:50 PM Off the Grid food truck porta potties should be removed each Tuesday after truck departure; they are unsightly and smell. 82 There is often litter on sidewalks. Cleaning up the debris on walkways would add a nicer feeling to the street. We 10/14/2014 2:43 PM don't need another Burlingame Avenue. 83 Require vacant buildings (not in use or being renovated) to display local school art work to help increase foot 10/1412014 2:39 PM traffic. 84 While I appreciate the list of options for hair and nail places, it also feels like there are almost too many of them or 10/14/2014 7:56 AM anytime we see a new business open up, its almost always a new hair or nail place (or a "spa" that also perform one or both these same funo8ons). There was one such business that recently closed and part of me wonders if it had anything to do with a possible "glut" of such businesses in this area? Another issue I have is that I would love to see the Broadway area remain affordable—periodically, I've seen complaints because it's "not Burlingame Avenue" or doesn't cater toward a highei crowd (again, like Budingame Avenue), yet the reality that rarely seems to get brought up or mentioned is that there is a significant number of us living in Burlingame who are not well-off or are on the poor side or may live off a fixed income (as is often the case with the eldedy/senior citizens, but certainly not limited to them) and while most of us shop in the Broadway area because it's more convenient or in closer proximity to where we live (and because we just prefer it as there are many wonderful businesses along it we want to support!), it's sometimes also because even those living near Burlingame Avenue living in such financial circumstances simply can't afford to eat or shop there anymore (with the ironic exception of some chains along there). If that changes with the Broadway area, we may be forced to have to take our business elsewhere to another city given that as much as we may want to support our local businesses, if they become too expensive or start catering toward a wealthier crowd to where we get anted out, we may not have any other choice. As it is, there's something of an ongoing joke about Burlingame Avenue and that—about how not only can we forget about it (either largely due to the pricing or just some of the stores there and their targeted clientele), but how it actually seems to be catering more toward the Hillsborough crowd (and to heck with the rest of us not as well-off living in Burlingame). I don't want to see the same thing happen to the Broadway area! Some of us have. many fond memories of shopping and eating in the Broadway Commercial District going back to childhood and of the businesses that were and sometimes still are there and have been for many years or decades. While I very much want to see greater occupancy of currently vacant or long vacant spaces (and that includes the Caltrain Station) and a greater variety of businesses along Broadway, it shouldn't have to be at the expense of those of us less fortunate—in other words, I'd prefer not to see it become as gentrified as what we're seeing in cites like San Francisco, but continue to retain what makes the Broadway area so special and makes it actually feel like a neighborhood commercial district should (one that many newer developments are ironically trying to emulate). 85 Keep entrance to and from the freeway weed free and plant nice eye appealing plants -color 1 011 21201 4 2:04 PM 86 Broadway needs a revamp 10/12/2014 1:53 PM 4/22 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 87 The mom and pop store ambiance is priceless. You can go to the bank, have shoes resoled, browse Pot Pourri, 10/12/2014 1:30 PM get a hamburger, etc. all on a Saturday. A throw -back to the 1950s. Dalt bring Broadway into the 21st century. It is unique as it is. 88 Need to renovate streets and building and place overpass on Broadway at California 1012/20141:25 PM 89 Make more inviting like Burlingame Avenue so people want to stay and shop and eat. 10/12/2014 1:18 PM 90 Do not turn it into Burlingame Avenue with parallel parking 10/12/2014 1:15 PM 91 Make the community the first priority. - 10/12/2014 1:11 PM 92 n/a 10/12/2014 1:08 PM 93 The balance between Burlingame avenue and Broadway is good.Broadway could be cleaned up though. 10/11/2014 10:06 AM 94 - DEFINITELY Not be like Downtowns Millbrae and San Bruno: non-distictive restaurants, nail salons, and 10/10/2014 11:41 PM massage leaders seem to be everywhere; ambience is drab during the day and dreary at night (ie, ghetto). Less like Downtown San Mateo: Seemingly one big food -court. More like Burlingame Avenue, or Downtowns San Carlos and Los Altos: Non -shopping mall stores offering diverse services; ambience is lively and welcoming at any time of the day! 95 In general, it would be great to upscale, attract business and higher end clientele in order to bring in stable 1 011 012 01 4 10:40 PM revenue, while still maintaining a small town feel for families. (Less chains, more unique and diverse). Also keep great lighting and add benches, to encourage kids and families to spend more time beyond quickly picking up a prescription or dry cleaning. 96 The Broadway shopping area looks neglected and dated. I like the charm of an older town, but this in not the right 10/10/2014 1:16 PM kind. 97 It's hard to find the right balance between quaint and appealing. Unfortunately, a lot of the quaint businesses are 1 0/1 012014 12:23 PM - old, family-owned ones that are dated, messy, not maintained (Preston's notwithstanding). Would be great to have a commercial building that attracts tech startups who don't want to be in SOMA, but without the train service during the week I'm not sure how well that would work. There is definitely a need between SOMA and PA for such spaces. 98 This city is fortunate to have two sides of the coin with Broadway and Burlingame; one brings in revenue from the 10/10/2014 12:06 PM corporate chains and shoppers and one provides revenue from local business owners and a real sense of community and continuity. We lost a lot of business when the train station closed on weekdays and we need the support of the City to encourage people to use Broadway businesses. 99 - Broadway Ave could be SO MUCH better! Thank you for this survey and taking action! 10/10/2014 9:29 AM 100 - Broadway is never going to be a big draw unless the retail suits enlarge and the street has some kind of anchor 10/10/2014 9:23 AM tenant. it could be a great restaurant or a store. I would like to keep it privately owned business 101 PIs do not build a parking garage or a lot. Not needed. 10/10/2014 8:43 AM 102 The Broadway District is a gem. Let's preserve its small town charm and business diversity. 10/9/2014 9:05 PM 103 Please don't make it look like Burlingame Ave , what a disappointment that is 1019;2014 8:10 PM 104 Do not make Broadway into another Burlingame Ave. Two of the same will not be beneficial to the city. Make it 1019/2014 7:54 PM more of a home town feeling without the major store chains. Broadway is already got the name, just need to find its niche an build upon it. 105 Keep rent costs low in support of independently businesses! 10/9/2014 7:50 PM 106 It us fine the way it is 1019/2014 6:40 PM 107 No 10/9/20146:17 PM 108 1 love the Broadway area and appreciate that we're taking a look to reinforce it! I grew up on Grove Avenue and 10/9/2014 4:55 PM worked on Broadway for years recently... lots of potential! I tired moving into Downtown to start an Art and Music Studio for open mic nights, community events and forums. Hoping a space will become available for this! 109 LOVE THE STREET IT DOES NOT COMPETE WITH BURLINGAME AVE. - IT DOES NOT NEED TO. 1019/2014 4:47 PM 110 It would be great if this were not the step child to Burlingame Ave. It needs it's own character and charm. Please 1019/2014 4:29 PM spend some time and money on this street! 5/22 6/22 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 111 How about cleaning the sidewalks? Pressure washing, maybe? 10/9/2014 4:25 PM 112 Please clean sidewalks and plant uniform plants in pots and at corner spaces. remove artificial plants. 10/9/2014 4:22 PM 113 The inconvenience of parking and traffic prevents us from using Broadway. We shop at Bgame Plaza and in 10/9/2014 1:49 PM Millbrae. We have been Bgame residents for 36+ years. 114 1. Should really make this a commutty "hub" for families with easy walking and biking access to get there. 10/9/2014 135 PM Actually, there needs to be a better bike trail, dedicated bike path, all the way from West of ECR to Bayside. Doesn't need to be straight dawn Broadway, maybe use Lincoln/Grove or another side street, with easy side -path to Broadway. 2. Love the energy at Off the Grid Tuesday, with people hanging out. Need that energy, aspect (hanging out) on Broadway on the weekends and other times. Create reasons for people go there, and be comfortable while there. 3. You really need to expand your "restaurant" category. i.e. prestons, it piccolo, starbucks, village host, behans, rocs, etc. are not all the same food/snack/drink type places. Working families on weekdays are not likely to go to traditional restaurants every week, especially M -Th. But we are likely to get Takeout, or something fast, i.e. Panda Express or Pizza My Heart. Part of the reason OTG is successful Tuesday nights. And even if I am doing takeoutipickup, it encourages me to go to a location where I might cross paths with others and interact. Plus, 12-18 kids are more likely to frequent those places. Just image ff Preston's had more than 2 tiny benches. Your question about "eating out in a restaurant" is way too narrow. I consider picking up donuts at Royal Donut, sandwich from Bonne Sante, or pizza from Village Host also "eating out" even if I'm taking it home, but I answered your question from a narrower/stricter "eating out there". Need more casual Magdalena, Taste of Mediterranean, and also 'bigger' than they currently are. and fewer Broadway Grill or Rocca. Those are dead holes on the street except for Fri/Sat dinner. 115 n/a 10/9,2014 9:32 AM 116 Angry that Broadway tried to stop the food trucks 1019/2014 9:28 AM 117 Looking forward to the Pilates gym this fall. Please can we keep the Pet Parade to once a year? 10/9/2014 9:25 AM 118 There are many businesses that have been around a long time and we should continue to support them. I would 1018/2014 10:56 PM like to see the area flourish like Budingame Ave, but with a more local vibe that preserves the small neighborhood charm that it has. 119 Consider a pedestrian boulevard with parking lots nearby turned into parking garages to accommodate lost 10/8/2014 2:55 PM parking spaces (though for traffic flow reasons this would make more sense for Burlingame Avenue.) 120 Need more parking lines painted on the side streets 10/8/2014 2:25 PM 121 1 don't mind more restaurants. 10/8/2014 11.16 AM 122 1 think it could be gorgeous and quaint. Please invest - it's ideal for Easton residents. 10/7/2014 5:51 PM 123 Broadway is really Old Town Burlingame and I appreciate the local businesses, but I would like to see less 10!712014 5,48 PM vacancies, less cellular companies and more mom and pop shops like Preston's Ice Cream. I love Broadway and want to see its star shine brighter. 124 n/a 10/7/20145: 42 PM 125 It is a great street that is totally overshadowed by business on Burlingame Avenue. 10/7/2014 5:40 PM 126 Has lots of potential but needs infrastructure investment and commitment. 10/7/2014 5'37 PM 127 Looks beautiful 10/7/2014 5:33 PM 128 We live within walking distance of Broadway and love to go there, but wish it had a more vibrant feel with more 10/712014 5:30 PM attention paid to making it nicer. 129 n/a 10!712014 5:25 PM 130 Close the back door to Starbucks. Careless drivers balancing their coffee and rushing to work through the 1017/2014 12:52 PM alley/right-of-way to Laguna are an extreme hazard, especially in the a.m. to pedestrians. 131 1 live 2 blocks from Broadway and love the convenience, but Broadway lacks high-end, cosmopolitan stores. 10/7/2014 12:48 PM Traffic cannot be helped because its a hub, but can be monitored better, i.e. ??? 132 Limit the number of eating establishments. 10/712014 12:42 PM 133 Progress awaits free-market solutions. 10171201412:39 PM 6/22 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 134 A facelift is needed on Broadway; like Burlingame Avenue received. This will be better for the Burlingame 10/7/2014 12:34 PM community as a whole. 135 1 had a business on this street many years before retiring. I have seen many changes, and most for the best. 10/7/2014 11:01 AM 136 Broadway is old and tired, not young and vibrant like nearby families. Limit redundant merchants so the ones that 10/7/2014 10:28 AM are here thrive. Many storefronts have been vacant for years and should be realistic about their leases. Some buildings need paint and repairs. 137 I've lived off Broadway for 28 years and seen it grow quite a bit in that time. Good neighborhoods, convenient to 10/7/2014 10:10 AM shops,101 and the airport, As it's grown the area has become more congested with traffic, parking issues, noise and garbage thrown in your front yard. Recent parking changes on my block has forced residents to buy a permit - to park in front of their own homes (if you can find a spot). I realize this is the price you pay to live close to shopping but it sometimes seems like the City is more interested in pleasing the business owners than the residents. 138 Broadway is the labor side of town and the ave is the glitter side of town 139 Broadway is great for the local community please do not make it commercial office space - keep the small businesses and a fun place to hang out and bump into neighbors. thank you 140 1 live 2 blocks off Broadway and walk there frequently. 141 most restaurants are low quality bar is low class and brings trouble 142 Sometimes parking is OK but in the evening for dining it is difficult and forces me to eat elsewhere. The cost of meters has risen a lot for fewer minutes of parking time. Parking is convenient WHEN parking is available. Since I hear parking doesn't bring in big money why are we charging so much. It was so nice at the holidays to be gifted with free parking for the season. 143 perhaps the city could hire a person to water plants, pick up trash, do odd errands for store owners, etc,; Perhaps 2-3 x a week. 144 Glad to See Pilate Prowork coming. 145 Broadway cannot expect to compete with Burlingame Ave or other downtown areas in its current tattered state. We don't need an apple store but we do need a reason for more people to visit Broadway. 146 Do something about motorists turning left from north bound EI Camino to west bound Broadway. Better signage or separate green lights for each direction at the intersection. 147 Get rid of those handle bars in front ort Magdaluna & Taste In 148 Broadway is in dire need of a facelift 149 Parking lots need paving & cleaning. Trash needs to be picked up and sidewalks cleaned really cleaned. 150 More young people friendly - bars, entertainment, clothing stores, etc 151 - We need to improve the quality 152 The sidewalks are very dirty. 153 1 wish it had the vibe and sophistication of Burlingame ave 154 It would be very nice to see this pact of the downtown improved in d meaningful way. 155 1 live walking distance to Burlingame Ave so ti's hard to want to go to Broadway for anything 156 - 1 WOULD LIKE TO SEE MORE TABLES AND CHAIRS FOR RESTAURANTS. MORE EVENTS ON BROADWAY LIKE STREET FAIRE, WINE WALK, HALLOWEEN PARADE AND WHATEVER BRINGS PEOPLE TO BROADWAY. I would also like to see what the chamber of commerce does for Broadway. they should show the city the breakdown of money they have spent on broadway marketing the downtown. The chamber takes public money and only spends on chamber members. The Burlingame trolley which is subsidized by many groups should have one directory for the driver to give away to passengers. The budingame ave has one and if broadway make one also, which directory will the passengers look at. Have a several page directory with both downtowns. The chamber only cares about Burlingame Ave. The broadway alley ways are filthy. I believe the sidewalk should be pressure washed twice a month. Broadway is very dark at nights. the broadway acorn light post should have beautiful planters. trim trees in commercial area once a year so the store front and business signs are not blocked. place better parking directional signs. The street corners should have more colorful Flowers. 7/22 10/712014 10:04 AM 10/6/201411:01 PM 10/6/2014 10:46 AM 10/6/2014 8:13 AM 10/5/2014 3 42 PM 1015/2014 12:54 PM 10/5/2014 11:37 AM 10/5/2014 10:29 AM 10/5/2014 9:01 AM 10/4/2014 7:12 PM 10/4/2014 12:27 PM 10/3/2014 8:43 PM 10/2/201411:11 PM 10/2/2014 10:48 PM 10/2/2014 9:13 PM 10/2/2014 8:53 PM 1012/2014 7:23 PM 10/2/2014 4:53 PM 10/1/2014 9:49 AM 157 158 159 160 161 162 163 164 165 166 167 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY The potential for Broadway is huge. Would love to see the city create the opportunity for competition to come in on the restaurant front and create a warn friendly safe environment for all the families in the area to come and enjoy (as well as spend their money) Honestly, some parts of Broadway feel very run down and kind of sad looking, with old faded signs, etc. Looking forward to a good dialogue and more investment in the district. BRING KINKO'S TO BROADWAY Not related to Broadway, but the City needs to get serious about increasing availability of parking in/around Budingame Ave. Broadway district looks rundown, which is not representative of Burlingame. Integrate areas around California Ave into the plan, to make it more walkable on the approach to Broadway. In support 8 in fairness to every restaurant on Broadway, I would like the the food trucks removed from the Broadway. Broadway needs a multilevel parking structure. I've grown up in Burlingame and always loved Broadway. Na Businesses on Broadway are more about protecting what they have then trying to improve and offer more. It's more about roadblocks then fostering a local grassroots environment. Burlingame Ave seems more commercial and large companies. Broadway should be attracting stores like Five Monkeys and other local shops more/better marketing might help 168 - Glad to hear you're interested in improving this area. 169 1 find the environment generally dirty and depressing. The sidewalks are filthy, paint is peeling many places, the awning is shredded at the former hardware. The landscape is not well maintained. There are many dead plants and or empty planters. Shops like Starbucks and the fruit market always are well maintained. The street looks festive with the lights on the trees and when special events call for the district flags and holiday banners. Broadway Grill is another business with a friendly and well maintained atmosphere. 170 Huge untapped opportunity to make it better! 171 1 love Broadway and the feel of the street - I'm not sure what the right mix of shops are but I am very passionate about Broadway being a useful street for us to frequent - I like the street scape and the trees are growing - it is going to be so shaded and beautiful - 172 1 see Broadway as depending on more mom-and-pop types of businesses, as opposed to Burlingame Avenue, where trendy clothes stores and eateries are franchises. These Broadway businesses are not being replaced when the original owners retire or get priced out. Stores like the candy stores are on the old-fashioned side, and may disappear when the current owners decide to retire. It's harder for Broadway to be dynamic when !Vs living more in the past. 173 Broadway is a main artery for Burlingame and right now its an eye sore We LOVE the idea of Broadway and walk to it weekly- however we just go to either Starbucks (which now looks great!) or in the summer, Prestons for Ice Cream.. And for Chase and the post office. We would really love to be able to dine in a good restaurant and need some good shopping! 174 : If you are going to keep the food trucks, they should be made to pay their fai, share, including paying for traffic control officers and cleaning up. 175 Broadway has been treated like a stepchild historically, financially and by City planners. 176 1 wish it were like Burlingame Avenue. Then I would walk there from my home. We just drive to Burlingame avenue to eat and shop. Broadway has the potential to thrive if we let it. Old restaurants and stores that are not doing well have to go. There needs to be more marquee stores. Give people a reason to come. And create parking for the increased traffic. 177 Please do not spend a lot of money on that project.keep it simple but nice.please do not copy Burlingame ave,way overdone 178 It's already hard to tum to Broadway from Carolan ave because of railroad crossing. Electrification and adding more Caltrain traffic will make this tum even worse. Many storefronts look outdated. 8/22 10/1/2014 6:45 AM 9130/2014 8:49 PM 9/30/2014 4:17 PM 9/30/2014 2:07 PM 9/30/2014 1:43 PM 9/30/2014 10:17 AM 9/30/2014 10:12 AM 9/29/2014 2:57 PM 9/29/2014 1:58 PM 9/29/2014 9:48 AM 9/29/20149:38 AM 9/29/2014 9:10 AM 9/29/2014 9:01 AM 9/29/2014 8 49 AM 9/29/2014 7 21 AM 9/28/2014 11:00 PM 9/28/2014 7:03 PM 9,128/2014 11:44 AM 9/28/2014 9:26 AM 9/27/2014 10:56 PM 9/27/2014 10:34 PM 9/27,2014 9:35 PM BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 179 Great initiative. Broadway is an important asset. Currently, it feels a bit tired. It could become a truly vibrant 9/27/2014 12:17 AM business entertainment district for those seeking an alternative to the more precious Burlingame Avenue. In particular, it's restaurant, coffee shops and bar offerings could help turn it into a very lively attraction, with intersting stores and non- traditional venues surrounding it It would need a more distinct identity other than the "mom and pop shop alternative to Burlingame Avenue". We have three young children, live between Burlingame Av and Broadway, and over the years we hope and look forward to patronizing a vibrant business community around Broadway. 180 With the advent of the food trucks, I now NEVER go to Broadway on Tuesday afternoons/evenings because there 9/26/2014 9:07 PM is NO available parking - it stinks, especially since our city receives very little benefits, monetary and otherwise, for the great inconvenience it causes residents and local eateries. I have to wonder if there was some sort of "under-the-table" shenanigans ($$$$$) involved!! :-((((( 181 1 live closer to Burlingame Ave. I like the restaurants on Broadway better, but choose convenience. I mostly go for 9/26/2014 8:11 PM the thrift and consignment shops. Other than AI's Cafe! 182 Tell the new work out studio to do something to make the windows look better. Painted as they are they make the - 9/26/2014 6:09 PM building look like a wherehouse. 183 no 9/26/2014 5:37 PM - 184 No - -- -- - 9/26/20144: 55 PM 185 Broadway has been overshadowed by Budingame Avenue and it is time that some energy, resources, and 9126/2014 4:46 PM money be spent on developing and marketing Broadway. Broadway miss!!! 186 Make sure no 7-11 stores, no more liquor stores 9/26/2014 3:13 PM 187 Broadway is a success waiting to happen. It just needs a bit more commitment from quality vendors and a bit of a 9/26/2014 2:36 PM modernization effort. 188 Broadway seems really down-market with failing business and junky stores. I'm sure it could be the successful, 9/26/2014 1:33 PM thriving area the community would love. 189 Would love to see some upgrades to the sidewalk, similar to Burlingame Ave. 9/261201412:30 PM 190 Remember, there was Broadway beautification several years ago, bump outs, new planters. i don't expect the big 9/26/2014 12:09 PM stores to be on Broadway, but it's nice to have local services. why do so businesses fail on Broadway? are the rents too high? or is the market working? are the landlords gouging businesses forcing failure? or just bad planning by the business, or bad luck? 191 The speeding traffic is a huge problem. Folks won't even let parkers back out. Someone was struck a few Sat. 9/26/2014 11:14 AM ago in the morning crossing Broadway. Too many cars going way too fast. 192 Enforce the "NO U-TURNS" ordinance. Find appropriate tenants for the vacant areas. 9/26/2014 11:01 AM 193 Why the moatorium on restaurants. Seems a little one sided compared to Burlingame ave. also the same. Applies 9/26/2014 10:57 AM to the street upgrades and now the wise city council offers more upgrades to the same part of town 194 The new gym is going to create congestion with bad double parkers, etc. Will be important to make sure this new 9/26/2014 10:54 AM business advises their clients appropriately and parking enforcement is out in full force. That said. I am excited to see something mainstream come onto Broadway. Creates more reason to walk down the street. 195 So glad to see this survey! 3/26/2014 10:38 AM 196 love the grocery stores, restaurants and bank being there. And the coffee cafes. We go to II Piccolo every day- 9126/2014 9:10 AM it's our destination when we walk the dog. Love having b -fast there. 197 The sidewalks are filthy, especially at those comer seating areas. Why doesnt The City clean those regularly? I 9/2612014 8:59 AM see a fellow spraying Burlingame Avenue's sidewalks in the morning... why is Broadway always treated differently. 198 1 love having Broadway as a small, community -oriented commercial district. However, 1 do think it's quite 9/26/2014 8:04 AM - important for Burlingame that downtown to maintain the critical mass of traffic to be a vibrant commercial district. I - wonder whether there's enough demand for a second large downtown. I'd rather have 1 large and 1 minor commercial area, vs. 2 medium-sized ones that both fall below critical mass. 199 Why is it that on the Avenue you can't spit without hitting a yogurt place, but there are none on Broadway? 9/25/2014 10:49 Phi 200 Off the Grid has been a welcome addition to the neighborhood. 9/25/2014 10:24 PM 9/22 10/22 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 201 Are there ways to draw traffic to the area? Off the grid, fanners market or other regular neighborhood events? 9/25/2014 10:22 PM 202 Better bike racks please!!!! Thank you for addressing Broadway! 9/25/2014 10:03 PM 203 some of the questions are incomplete. 43 - my family and 1 eat out on broadway a few times a month. that's not a 9/25/2014 9:42 PM choice on 43 204 take a look at the changing demographics of the easton addition and surrounding neighborhoods. this is a huge 9/25/2014 9:29 PM opportunity to provide what this population wants: family friendly, cost efficient restaurants and shops. 205 Broadway just seems worn dawn and in need of renovation. 9/25/2014 9:25 PM 206 more parking 9/25/2014 8:33 PM 207 It'd be great to see the Broadway area be more vibrant, but I have to admit I don't have any specific suggestions 9/25;2014 8:29 PM on how to do this, other than more restaurant and store options of interest to the local neighborhood residents (vs. going to Burlingame Avenue). 208 Wife and I used to live near Old Town Alexandria. It was also less "corporate" and it seemed to work. Nice place 9/25/2014 8:08 PM to walk. Maybe somehow distinguish Broadway from Burlingame Ave? 209 Time to show Broadway based businesses that they are vital to our community and to utilize the versatility that 9/25/20148:07 PM Broadway has to offer to bring our community together in new and meaningful ways 210 Please give this street a facelift. It's stuck in 1971, and with all the money in Burlingame it's ridiculous and makes 9/2512014 7:51 PM those that are making the decisions in the city look lazy or incompetent 211 Broadway needs some love. The residents love it and everyone I know wants to frequent it more but they are 9/25/2014 7:49 PM saying the same thing as I am. Get some good destination places there, help clean it up and freshen it up and host some fun events w food, cocktails and entertainment. You will see the city residents rally, I'm sure of that 212 If it was built up similar to burlingame avenue I would go there far more often 9/25/2014 7:11 PM 213 Tenants and owners need to work together instead of causing trouble 9/25/2014 7:07 PM 214 Burlingame Ave has the high end stuff. WE want the cool stuff. I know that it is hard to start that vibe from scratch 9/25/2014 6:55 PM but someone who is creative can do it. Shut down the road once in a while invite people to come down and put the food trucks on Broadway. Have people mingle, talk. Put a craft beer garden behind a restaurant. There are many friday nights that we want to walk to Broadway and eat and spend. Most of the eating places are just so dated and behind the times. Look at Bon Sante, they put in the effort to make a honest product and people flock to it. 215 Just don't make it look like Burlingame Avenue and hire someone with some talent instead of just connections. 9/2512014 6:45 PM 216 Change the traffic pattern so it's not a thoroughfare to 101 9/25/2014 6:33 PM 217 Seems ridiculous that there is no free parking for the street. San Carlos knows what they're doing. I'll go out of my 9/252014 6:32 PM way to go there not because parking is free but because I know I won't get a steep ticket if my meter express 30 seconds before I get back to my car. 218 Our family has lived in Burlingame since 1961. 1 did raise my family in Redwood City, when I ret'd about 9 years 9/25/2014 6:01 PM ago (after my folks passed) I could not believe the change in Burlingamel What happened to the "small town" feeling? 219 It's my neighborhood shopping district and I'd love to see a more updated feel to it. 9/25/2014 5:11 PM 220 SAN CARLOS' Laurel Street corridor should be the model for Broadway very few national chains, but much 9/2512014 3:38 PM higher end boutiques, restaurants and shops. The age and quality of the local shops on Broadway keep it from being a destination shopping/dining area even for local residents. 221 While we live very close to Broadway, we find we spend most of our time when shopping / eating an Burlingame 9/25/2014 3:08 PM Avenue. There are just more compelling places on Budingame Avenue. I think of Broadway as mostly a bunch of Mom and Pop stores, with not much to generate interest / traffic. It is sort of like the chicken and the egg in that most retailers would rather be on Burlingame Avenue because that is where the action is. Maybe if there was a Poet's store in addition to the Starbucks, that could be a centerpiece for traffic, which could end up attracting more compelling retail. Losing the restaurants at the Broadway Train Station was a big loss — that is kind of cool spot there. 10/22 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 222 Burlingame needs co -working spaces. So many people work from home on start-ups or independent work, and 9/25/2014 2:50 PM would benefit from temporary office spaces. Burlingame planning needs to work with citizens to resolve whether we are an edge city, an urban area, or a rural area. It makes a different. My sense is most older residents think this is a rural area — lots of big cars, park wherever you want, drive to the box stores. That is not sustainable in my opinion. 223 Please do not have special events — they serve only a special interest and penalize the majority. 9/2512014 2:42 PM 224 - Please update this street. 1 drive by it every single day to go to Bgame Ave and San Mateo because they have a 9/2512014 2:33 PM - much nicer feeling and better shops. 225 - 1 love having local options and try to patronize local establishments. I miss having Dolan's hardware store (similar 9/25/2014 1:27 PM in scale to Ace hardware on Lorton avenue). 226 1 love broadway, but the street needs a face lift. Many awnings are tom and the side walks are a bit narrow. 9/2512014 12:40 PM 227 We love Broadway but it just feels tired, dated and dirty. It's also lined with traffic at key times which makes it 9/25/2014 12:13 PM dangerous to pedestrian, children, dogs etc. No one stops for crosswalks. 228 1 think there is so much potential for Broadway and it is within walking distance for many of us with children 9/25/2014 11:33 AM which is great. Please help revive this great streetf! r) 229 Broadway is no Burlingame Ave. I'm tired of vacant storefronts. Also, we don't need more massage/naillhair 9/25/2014 11:09 AM shops on Broadway! It's an odd assortment of shops that I often walk by but never go into. 230 Lower the speed limit. 9125/201410:19 AM 231 Thanks for your consideration. 9!2512014 9:46 AM 232 1 think Broadway has some good stores and services but too much of the same kind of stores. While its nice to 9/2512014 9:34 AM have small ethnic restaurants, nail salons, second hand clothes, we have a lot of the same kinds of stores and not enough of other stores/eateries that would round it out. It would be nice to add things that would allow people to shop/roam and make it more of a basic shopping place (good produce - like Deans, books, dessert, interesting drinks like TPumps) as well as restaurants (e.g., La Boulange, 31st Union, Delfinos, etc.) that allow it to be more of a gathering place for families and groups (people meeting up for meetings, going out for friends birthdays, having nice lunch with a friend), etc. 233 For those that live in the North side of Burlingame, would be nice to be able to walk to the Broadway downtown 9125/2014 9:26 AM and have higher quality like we do on Burlingame Ave. 234 1 would be very supportive of some changes to this street. This has been a long time coining... 9/25/2014 9:21 AM 235 Help drive up home values, increase revenue, increase the jobs in Burlingame and revitalize this district. 9/25/2014 9:07 AM 236 Instead of the police waiting for cars to run red lights on California and Broadway, it would be nice to see foot 9/25/2014 8:26 AM patrols on Broadway and Burlingame Avenue. 237 1 like having Starbucks and Wells Fargo on Broadway. It would be nice if we had a yougurt shop or a jamba juice. 9/25/2014 8:13 AM 238 Please invest in broadway-seems so unfair that it gets no love, when burlingame ave is so much bigger and so 9/25/2014 7:26 AM much better funded. 239 One would not think Broadway ave and Burlingame ave reside in the same town. It doesn't look as nice nor does 9125/2014 7:17 AM it have the same caliber of tenants. It's much more enjoyable on Burlingame ave, and has been for years, even before the renovations. We need to attract retailers to broadway. 240 There is untapped potential for Broadway to become more thriving 9/25/2014 7:11 AM 241 Broadway feels like the forgotten downtown. It has it's own local feel that I would love to see preserved while 9/25/2014 6:36 AM receiving some ilc. 242 only reason I go is for Starbucks and occasionally Walgreens 9125/2014 5:21 AM 243 If you build it, opt will come. More nice restaurants, fitness, etc 9/25/2014 12:17 AM 244 please make broadway a pretty, functional place for us to enjoy. we live within walking distance and we would 9/24/2014 11:50 PM lave more restarants . 245 Look at California Ave in Palo Alto. It was always the step sister to the much fancier University Ave. The street 9/24/2014 11:27 PM has really spruced up over the last few years and is much more of a destination. Much better restaurants. Would be a good parallel case study. 11/22 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 246 The shops are odd and unappealing 9/24/2014 11:14 PM 247 Smadway/Cal Trans intersection ,something needs to be done. 9/24/2014 9:38 PM 248 1 live within walking distance to Broadway Ave. While my family and I eat out at least 4 times/wk we rarely eat on 9/24/2014 9:31 PM Broadway because the choices are extremely limited and of lower quality. 249 I'm glad to hear there is concem about Broadway and excited to see the street reach its potential! 9/24/2014 9:13 PM 250 Broadway seems like a street that is used to access hwy101 9/24/2014 6:22 PM 251 Please take a serious look at slowing traffic there. Other cramped business districts like this with heavy 9/24/2014 5:03 PM pedestrian use reduce traffic to 20 miles an hour. We experience close calls on weekly basis 252 No more restaurants. 9/24/2014 4:13 PM 253 1 think it is important to have local shops, but I think the street would attract more business 4 i were refreshed 9/24/2014 12:08 PM visually, and if there were 1-2 larger "anchor" stores that people might go to. 254 Burlingame Ave. belongs to Hillsborough residents. Let Broadway belong to Burlingame residents. 9/241201411:53 AM 255 1 would suggest more decorative lighting the whole length of Broadway. Also, why not put decorative sidewalks in 9/24/2014 10:44 AM like you've done for Burlingame Ave. 256 Please do not make the Broadway Commercial District an outdoor mall. 9/24/2014 10:10 AM 257 Broadway has potential, use it! I live a block off Broadway and still drive my car to budingame ave at least once 9/24/2014 6:34 AM per week, even for quick food! 258 Please never create the mess that was allowed on Burlingame Ave. What e disaster for everyone. 9/24/2014 6:25 AM 259 nope 9/23120144:03 PM 260 Parking and plantings are good the way the were done only a short time ago. A more aesthetic sidewalk paving 9/23/2014 3:39 PM would enhance the pedestrian environment. Broadway is unique the way that it is, and should not be redone to the extent Burlingame Avenue was redone (which is beautiful but not for Broadway.) 261 : So glad this is being considered! It seems like broadway district is a gem in the rough that the community could 9/23/2014 3:33 PM do much more with! 262 - Nothing on the street currently entices me there. If I stay local I go to Burlingame ave for the variety of stores. 9/23/2014 3:05 PM 263 My understanding of the main issue w the area is that the rent is too high for many businesses to survive. 9/23/2014 1.16 PM 264 Thank you for doing this survey and having the meeting. I am a new resident, and really enjoy living near 9/23/201412:03 PM Broadway. 265 Burlingame has spent a lot of money beautifying Burlingame Ave and making it more appealing to big name 9/23/2014 10:31 AM retailers. It's about time Burlingame paid more attention to Broadway. 266 keep it nice and clean, more parking facilitation around the area would be greatly helpful. 9/23/2014 9:32 AM 267 have restaurants keep outside seating from spreading across the sidewalk encroaching pedestrian traffic. 9/22/2014 11:05 PM 268 The type of people that frequent broadway are substantially different than those on Burlingame ave. Though in 9/22/2014 10:07 PM the same city, it's a very different culture. Broadway is more of a neighborhood where people walk through as part of their day -today activities. Whereas Burlingame Ave is sought out as more of a destination. 269 It would be nice to see a few nicer clothing stores 9/22/2014 9:20 PM 270 Maybe some sort of giving -back event for kids in the Broadway area to do community service? Maybe a book 9/22/2014 9:03 PM drive and kids give their favorite books they've outgrown to other children who need books? Something that is community building. 271 Please dont let the chains come in. 9122/2014 8:41 PM 272 - love my manicures at rainbow 9/22/2014 7:38 PM 273 Broadway is the ugly stepsister. Please do something about it because the real estate in Burlingame is far too 9/22/2014 6:59 PM valuable and has much too much potential to let it stagnate the way it has. 274 We need to get some kind of confiruation nearing off the freeway that doesn't cause so much time wasted at the 9/22,12014 5:47 PM railroad crossing and the many signals. If Millbrae can get it done, why can't Burlingame? 12/22 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 275 Make any changes supportive of pedestrians and cyclists more than of cars. 9/22/2014 5:43 PM 276 1 would also like to see the City invest in infrastructure improvements to make I easier to bike and walk between 9/22/2014 5:38 PM the Ave and Broadway. 277 Broadway need to keeps the sidewalks clean. The look of Broadway does not attract new customers or 9/22!2014 5:36 PM merchants. The street does not need to be redone it just needs to be kept clean and the shops that are empty filled. if the owner of the property does not want to rent them out the city need to have conversation with the owner and create a solution. 278 Do NOT make it parallel parking - I can usually find a space at least on 2nd try - parallel parking just LIMITS 9/22/2014 4:56 PM - parking for no good reason. Also, sequence of red/green lights at end of Broadway should be correlated to those traveling West from the overpass — try this at 5 p.m. - the red light on CA Drive stops all traffic and it is dangerous! Only 2 cars can wait at CA Drive and the rest have to stop mid -road ... any more than 2 cars at CA Drive means the 3rd car has its "butt" too close to the RR tracks - and the train is wider than the tracts! This situation is begging for a disastrous accident! 279 Broadway is a great walkable resource for our community. I love that it's not just high end boutiques. I love the 9/22/2014 4:24 PM diversity of small restaurants and shops. Let's make it even better! 280 The freeway approach to Broadway is unsightly and not in keeping with the rest of Burlingame. 9/2212014 4:16 PM 281 Given the value of homes nearby, I'm not sure why there are so many vacancies on Broadway. Need more retail 9/22/2014 3:17 PM and less offices on the strip. 282 The anchor store for me is the Goodwill but their parking and street access is terrible. Every time I think about 9/22/2014 3:12 PM going to Broadway I remember the confusing one-way streets, difficult street parking, and heavy traffic during peak hours, and decide against going. - 283 _ No -- _ - -. -. .. - - - 9/22/2014 1:45 PM... 284 Sidewalk maintenance getting to Broadway from side streets could be a bit better. The lifts from root damage are 9/22/2014 12:59 PM pretty prominent in some areas and make it hard for stroller, etc. 285 Do not tear up Broadway like you did Burlingame Ave. If people want to experience "new," let them go to 9/22/2014 11:21 AM Burlingame Ave. There is nothing wrong with Broadway the way it is today. Please stop wasting taxpayer money 286 1 like the way that Burlingame Avenue is fancier shopping venue while Broadway is more down-to-earth daily 9/22/2014 11:01 AM shopping place. 287 It would be interesting to understand what the overall vision is for Burlingame vs Broadway. It feels like 9/22/2014 10:53 AM Burlingame is the larger, box -store shopping area and also targeting both locals & visitors with ample parking and nice restaurants. 288 We live on the block. Create things to do with our kids in the neighborhood besides eat ice cream and go to 9/22/2014 10:50 AM pica. 289 Please have City Council remove the moratorium - not sure why one even exists. Aplace like design/build 9/22/2014 10:46 AM shelter doesn't seem to add to the vitality of the street- perhaps uses like that could go in another district or on the 2nd floor. 290 1 think of broadway as an "Intermediate" neighborhood. I do most of my day to day shopping in Millbrae or on 9/22/2014 9:54 AM very northern part of Burlingame. Prices are more reasonable and access is better. I have some favorite places on Broadway in Burlingame that I visit regularly (which are either not available in Millbrae, or are a step above Millbrae). Burlingame Ave is reserved for higher -end events - it is a little mare pricey and harder to get to - I need a good reason to go there. 291 1 was very sad to see the magnolia trees cut down years ago and replaced. I hope the trees will be allowed to 9/22/2014 9:45 AM mature and not be cut down again. 292 Don't fall for the "we need more parking" argument. Broadway needs customer and customers can be delivered 9/22/2014 9:45 AM in lots of ways, including via a strong residential and workplace fabric. 293 Parking should be parallel as I have seen many almost collisions as people back out of spots. Very dangerous 9/22/2014 9:41 AM area and parking re -figuration should strongly be considered to improve safety. 294 Please keep it mom & pop! 9/22/2014 9:32 AM 13/22 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 295 Broadway feels dingy and old. It should never try to be Burlingame Ave but it could use a major facelift and I bet budingame residents will start visiting both Burlingame ave and Broadway on sunny weekends to spend money and create more tax revenue. Widen the sidewalk, make it look beautiful to stroll on, add "parklets" like they have in San Francisco, add crosswalk lights, make it one way from el camino towards califomia so that people from the freeway aren't racing down broadway and endangering kids crossing the street. Attract some hip restaurants and pubs. A lot of young tech workers live in the area or commute past it and they'd definitely spend their money here at unique food establishments. 296 Broadway district seems "run down" / much older vs. Burlingame Ave. We generally just go to Burlingame Ave. as there is a better selection of restaurants and stores. Find a way to uniquely differentiate Broadway to continue to attract visitors 297 1 love the proximity of these locally based businesses, I do feel the street needs to be cleaner though. 298 A verity of strong business would be helpful, not for astedics, but for the people who use Broadway. Make it their "place to go" first. 299 Really, how many nail salons does a town need? A quick search of google says that there are at least 22 nail salons in Burlingame. At least half are on Broadway. 300 How can we attract more new businesses like the Pilates studio? 301 - 1 never go to Broadway to eat in a restaurant or shop for clothes or gifts, mostly just run errands 302 Maybe to put some plants like the ones on the Gap parking lot. Don't need much water and look nice with the little stones. 303 304 305 306 307 308 309 Aul it's really congested with traffic. awful driving and not safe for pedestrian. don't do anything to worsen that. In fact, thing should be done to alleviate that. I think that if broadway were nicer, easton home values would rise. We bought in burlingame hills because we concluded there was no need to pay more for a smaller house in easton because there wasnt anything we really needed to be able to walk to on broadway. Broadway feels a little neglected. I like it's small town feel, but it has a strange mix of tenants and no real family friendly restaurants. Truthfully, the only stores that I visit on Broadway on a regular basis are Starbucks and Walgreens (and occasionally Kim's Perfect Nails). headway has a lot of potential but needs attentionl We love the local feel of b -way ave. B -game ave is very commercial, which is great too, but its good that the two main drags in the city have very different feels. I like Earthbeam, All that Glitters, II Piccolo and Weimax because the owners are always around. And there are more stores with the owners who I don't know. No. 1. Reduce the random non-functioning businesses 2. Make it a more quainter more attractive venue to attract more foot traffic from Burlingame and the neighboring communities. Make it more of a destination. Make it more of a dinning destination for Burlingame with quaint cafes, breakfast places, restaurants, bars, book stores, upscale food stores. Example like the Rockridge area or the gourmet ghetto in Berkeley. I miss the mom and pop shops that thrive. Small restaurants that are good, not just surviving. Entertainment is key. 311 Its pretty sad compared to Burlingame Ave. 312 If the train were to stop on Broadway, businesses might improve. 313 Excited about the Pilates. 314 Some shops lag in keeping up appearance, giving a "worn out" look to the shopping area. 315 clean it up and more people will come. Even vacants store fronts need to be cleaned up by their owners in order to attract merchants 316 I'm happy to see someone is asking these questions. Hopefully we can clean up broadway, get some stores in the many vacant storefronts. 317 Thanks for soliciting community comments. Glad that Broadway is getting much needed facelift'. 14122 9/22/2014 9:28 AM 9/22/2014 9:27 AM 9/22/2014 9:06 AM 9/22/2014 8:42 AM 9/22/2014 8:04 AM 9/2212014 6:34 AM 9/21/2014 10:00 PM 912112014 9:12 PM 9/21/2014 9:09 PM 9/21/2014 8:57 PM i=7CAfY.D1Gl1 *2NIT,'.. 9121 /2014 6 44 PM 9/21/2014 6:38 PM 9/21/2014 6:35 PM 9/21/2014 5:47 PM 9/21/2014 5:39 PM 9/21/2014 3:46 PM 921/2014 3:43 PM 9/21/2014 3:42 PM 9121/2014 3:39 PM 9/21/2014 3:32 PM 9/21/2014 3:29 PM 9/21/2014 3:29 PM BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 318 We have enough nail salons Need a decrease in traffic of commercial vehicles Make it as inviting as Burlingame ave 319 1 don't know if the commerical district is just Broadway or adjacent streets 320 It would be great to have Broadway Ave be a'destination' for people and the community. 321 1 like how slot of stores cater to dogs as well. It looks like a friend, lay back neighborhood to go to that you can take your pet with you. 322 - There is great potential to bring Broadway up to date. It seems like a quaint relic that has lost it's luster. Also, with the longstanding vacancies, there is opportunity to make broadway a more bustling business district. 323 Build it and they will come$ 324 It is apparent that the building owners have set the rents too high so that is why they are losing tenants and not 325 326 327 328 329 330 331 332 333 334 335 336 337 338 339 340 341 kM gaining good tenants. Way too many vacancies. Broadway needs to be revitalized aroundsome of the quality places that are currently there. Because we live really close to Burlingame avenue, we always go there... only because we love WALKING to it and not getting into our car. I hope Broadway doesn't turn into another Burlingame Avenue though. I love that it has small independent businesses and if I lived closer to it I would use it more. DON'T TAKE AWAY PARKING SPACES. Keep the parallel parking, don't make the same mistake that was made on Burlingame Ave The area presents itself as older and in need of refurbishment, not active and thriving. Keep Broadway from looking like Burlingame Avenue. Not a carbon copy. Question number 5 should have a N/A option because we don't have a car and we've never parked on Broadway. We do have a car on occasion and use Broadway to get to the freeway which is kind of hairy due to all the cars parked on the street. It would be better if the cars where able to parallel park, cause cars have to back Into traffic right now. Redwood City has been able to lift up parts of their sagging downtown area. Let's hope Burlingame can do the same! If Bway had the feel of budingame avenue it would attract many more patrons. perhaps an initiative by the building commission to incentivize building owners to upgrade their buildings both cosmetically and for food quality. Perhaps an incentive to bring in new restaurants, bigger sidewalks like the ave. Need to update the look of the street a little while maintaining character Easier way to bike - bike lane please and or more pleasant pedestrian experience We love Broadway and are so glad to live nearby. Meets all our needs in every way. My husband and I both are responding to this email survey, although only #11 indicates male Or female. we are satisfied how Broadway is diversified Love the street as is. Too bad that some shops can't make it. I hope the Ace hardware store on Park Rd. makes it but it would be nice to have one on Broadway, too. require that all properties have trees and green areas to improve the "green lung" (better auquality. Do not allow anymore to build houses where the ground floor is a car port -will lead to collapse in an earthquake and does not fit to Burlingame character. Plenty of office buildings are at the Bayshore/waterfront. Introduce rent control. Lived just west of broadway for 20 years and raised family here. Walk down for coffee often and enjoy an occasional meal at room or village host but sadly go the ave as a destination for better food and shopping choices Broadway is an opportunity to make something great in Burlingame. I would love to see it succeed more 9/21/2014 3:23 PM 9/21/2014 3:22 PM 9/21/2014 3:18 PM 9/21/2014 2:58 PM 9/21/2014 2:55 PM 9/21/2014 2:39 PM 9/21/2014 2:25 PM 9/21/2014 1:44 PM 9/21/2014 1:33 PM 9/21/2014 1:29 PM - 9/21/2014 1:10 PM - 9/21/2014 11:55 AM 9/21/201411:31 AM 9/21/2014 11:13 AM 9121/2014 9:29 AM 9121/2014 8:44 AM 9121/2014 8:38 AM 9/21/2014 8:37 AM 9/21/2014 8:20 AM 9/21/2014 8:12 APA 9/20/201411:09 PM 9/20/2014 9:07 PM 9,20;2014 8:38 PM Traffic makes walking unpleasant. Vacant stores suggest decline rather than growth. San Carlos Laurel Street 9/20/2014 8:02 PM area would be an excellent model for types of restaurants and stores. It feels clean an lively after hours and traffic is contained and slow. Hopefully the Broadway overpass will allow easy pedestrian and bike access to the Bay and end the backups at 9/20/2014 7:43 PM that intersection. 15/22 343 344 345 346 347 348 349 350 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY This is the gateway to Budingame; somehow it lacks "pi=t'! 9/20/2014 7:35 PM none 9/20/2014 6:46 PM You have turned Burlingame Ave into a poody designed version of a Palo Alto suburb. Please leave Broadway 9/20/2014 6:31 PM ALONE San Carlos is an example of a thriving small community. The parking is free. Broadway Burlingame seems old, 9/20/2014 6:00 PM dated, dowdy. I never think about going there. Use RHAA James Ingles, he will Know what to suggest. 9,2012014 5:51 PM I would be thrilled to see Broadway get the same upgrade that Burlingame Ave did. It would be great for residents 9/20/2014 3:54 PM and bring in lots of new business Broadway has improved over the years, but could use some improvement, 9/20/2014 3:40 PM Broadway could be very quaint, something like downtown Carmel. It needs to be cleaned up and store front 9/20/2014 3:35 PM owners should take pride of the front of the stores. I went to Ireland and they have something called tidy cities. It was very clean and lots of flowers. 351 Would love to see Broadway reenergized as a local hub of the neighborhoods in Burlingame. Local stores and restaurants as opposed to the chains on Burlingame Ave. 352 We would love to see Broadway invigorated. We live in Easton Addition and almost always have to drive to Burlingame Ave or even San Mateo to go out to lunch or dinner. We would love to have a good variety and quality of stores and restaurants on Broadway, which we can walk to. 353 If the city council asked people in Burlingame if they want more time and attention given to Broadway it would be a unanimous YES! Broadway is such a charming area and the current business owners need to up their game and change things up a bit to entice more pot and business. We also need to draw better restaurants, wine bars and fun places for people to hang out and make it more vibrant 354 so much better than it used to be. I think it has been improving. 355 Broadway can keep its yesteryear charm but add more upscale shops and restaurants like Menlo Park. It should eliminate some of the lower quality retail stores and limit the number of nail Salons actually on Broadway St itself. 356 This area feels old and stodgy 357 Please don't turn Broadway into another Burlingame Ave.! It should maintain its own character. Re: #5— sometimes difficult to park on Broadway but parking almost always available in one of the lots. 358 No need for parking garage; lower rents for floor space encourage higher occupancy 359 none 360 Please do something to enhance broadway. It is such a last opportunity. It could thrive if the right businesses came in. Very excited about the pilates studio opening. Will attract more people but they need places to go. 361 Police need to crack down on the U-tums. 362 Tum the caltrain parking lot into downtown parking. 363 1 go to the bank, chase, the consignment store, the gas station, Walgreens, subway and other restaurants, and the cigar shop - I would love more reasons to go to the broadway commercial center. 364 Make sidewalks wider and safer for children on scooters, bicydes, strollers 365 I'm sure the Burlingame Avenue renovation is probably out of reach, but the aesthetic of Broadway Is pretty dumpy. Chase bank's neon is aesthetically offensive and totally inappropriate for the context— they need to kill those lights. 366 Thanks for the opportunity to respond to your needs. 367 It appears Burlingame Ave. received all the attention & funding. It's time to give Broadway that same level of enthusiasm & support. It's a eyesore for Burlingame & especially for the surrounding community. 368 I've recently noticed some incidents with people in the area that really make me wonder if I need to be concerned for my (and my kids) safety on Broadway. I think there may be some section 8 housing near California (?), but there definitely seems to be a crowd that I've noticed lately that doesn't feel like your typical budingame family residents. 16/22 9/20/2014 3:30 PM 9/20/2014 3.19 PM 9/20/2014 2:48 PM 9/20/2014 1:50 PM 9/20/2014 1:46 PM 9/20/2014 1:06 PM 9/20/2014 12:46 PM 9120201412:41 PM 9/20/201410:16 AM 9/2012014 9:41 AM 9(20/2014 9:41 AM 920/2014 9:36 AM 9/20/2014 9:34 AM 9/20/2014 9:33 AM 9/20/2014 8:56 AM 9/20/2014 8:46 AM 9/20/2014 8:35 AM 9/20/2014 8:18 AM 17/22 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 369 1 am a psychotherapist in 1425 Broadway. My clients often shop on Broadway before-after they see me. I think 9/20/2014 8:09 AM healthcare providers like me are an asset to the commercial district. 370 Do not make Broadway parallel parking like Burlingame Avenue. Do not get "big chains' on Broadway" to follow 9/20/2014 8:01 AM Burlingame Avenue's example. Broadway is not attractive. (exception: Earthbeam) It needs beautification. 371 1 had heard a rumor that Broadway Prime owners are thinking of putting a pawn shop in one of their Broadway 9/20/2014 7:40 AM shops. 1 am hoping that this is only a rumor, a pawn shop would cheapen the neighborhood. 372 Broadway needs Ana educational business, art teaching studio, karate studio. 9/20/2014 7:24 AM 373 The sidewalks tend to be not dirty - taking away some of the appeal 9/20/2014 4:44 AM 374 Perhaps this project could be coordinated with the hwy 101/broadway interchange rebuild project which would 9/20/2014 3:21 AM provide burlingame with 2 outstanding shopping/eating streets 375 We lave Broadway/ Burlingame! 9/20/2014 2:38 AM 376 I would suggest that the planning commission for Broadway's commercial businesses stay dear of adding shops 9120/2014 12:46 AM like the weird one selling pipes and bongs (South side of street closer to EI Camino than California). Let's make Broadway a refined and beautiful neighborhood business district. There is a great variety of restaurants which we like very much. 377 It is a charming, beautiful area BUT needs work to bring people to walk, buy, enjoy 9/19/2014 11:46 PM 378 1 live two blocks away from Broadway and I am so happy to live here with my family. Broadway is great but I think 9/19/2014 11:45 PM it can be even better! 379 Please do something to revitalize this area. In such a wealthy neighborhood, the street just seems run down and 9/19/2014 11:32 PM forgotten. 380 We really enjoy having Broadway in walking distance to our house. We love the character, feel and charm of 9/19/2014 11.29 PM it... and that it is different from Burlingame Avenue. 381 It improved when Broadway Grill came in and even more with the produce market. I like that it is different from 9/19/2014 11:12 PM Burlingame Ave but would like to see less vacancies 382 Glad you are addressing Broadway. I've always felt it was the ugly "stepsister' to Burlingame Ave, but it is for us 9/19/2014 10:08 PM residents and should flourish. 383 Quality restaurants will increase traffic for all businesses. 9/1912014 10:07 PM 384 The big issue and I live down the street and my neighborhood all says that the city has forgotten Broadway and 9/19/2014 9:40 PM all focus is on the Ave, that is terrible and sad 385 People like Broadway be it isn't Burlingame Ave. But clearly it needs a few real anchors that will attract people 9/19/2014 9:32 PM who don't live in the immediate vicinity. If I didn't live walking distance away (which I am glad I don't) I would almost never patronize Broadway. 386 1 live closer to broadway than butlingame ave and think sprucing up broadway would be worth the effort. 9/19/2014 9:32 PM Burlingame avenue has gotten too crowded and big chain commercial. 387 1 would like broadway to stay the same and not loose it to big box stores like what happened to Burlingame ave 9/19/2014 9:31 PM 388 Keep it local to the extent possible. The change to Burlingame Ave. is excellent but does not need to be 9/19/2014 9:28 PM replicated on Broadway. 389 My family tends to go out much more frequently on Burlingame ave instead because it is so much more 9/19/2014 9:24 PM "walkable". Also figuring out how to keep some of the traffic onto the side streets. 390 Love the live music at it piccolo on the weekends! The Broadway sign is unattractive. Love Pot Pourri! 9/19/2014 9:23 PM 391 Keep out the nationwide chain restaurants. 911912014 9:22 PM 392 You have a beautiful community with lots of wonderful people. It is one of my favorite spots in the entire Bay 9/19/2014 9:22 PM Area. 393 More parking would be nice. 9/19/2014 9:12 PM 394 1 think someone should ask Broadway Grill to take all of the Christmas lights down. They look so trashy and 1 9/19/2014 9:02 PM think it just trashes up the street. 17/22 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 395 Updating the places on Broadway would help highlight some of the shops. Having consistency on the signs in 9/19/2014 9:02 PM particular. Right now I don't even know some of the place that are there. 9/19/2014 6:42 PM 396 Love that Broadway is there but with Burlingame Ave. facelift and modem stores, it looks even more outdated 9/19/2014 8:59 PM 9/19/2014 6:25 PM than before. No energy at all except when food trucks are parked in the train station lot! 397 - Fix that ridiculous intersection from Calif Drive to 1011 And what is the point of a train that doesn't stop?? 9/19/2014 8:59 PM 398 No comment 9/19/2014 8:59 PM 399 Please keep or promote locally owned businesses. Keep Boradway clean, friendly, with fresh flowers and trees. 9/19/2014 8:55 PM 'do not add or build additional housing or mixed use housing keep existing parking spaces as is, do not take them away 400 1 really like Broadway. 9/19/2014 8:55 PM 401 If office spaced is zoned, I suggest it be restricted to the 2nd level or above so the ground floor space remains 9/19/2014 8:53 PM interesting for the many pedestrians. Very important for walkability. 402 Resurface Broadway between Califomia Drive and ECR. The street looks old, needs to look new and fresh to 9/19/2014 839 PM make a subtle change to the ambiance of the area, 403 BROADWAY IS JUST PLAIN DIRTY If - 9/19/2014 8:28 PM 404 Get Caltrain back everyday!!! 9/19/2014 8:15 PM 405 1 love the independent nature of Broadway vs Burlingame Ave. but it would be nice to have the sidewalks and 9/192014 8:14 PM storefronts cleaned up. It looks shabby but there are some wonderful restaurants/shops that would benefit from some city involvement. 406 Store Fronts need to be more appealing/colorful Empty stores not a good sign for other vendors 9/19/2014 8:05 PM 407 1. Loitering cannot be tolerated. 2. Littering cannot be tolerated. 3, Make the District family friendly 24/7. 4. Put a 9/19/2014 8:04 PM shine on the District. 5. Enough dialogue on Broadway. DO SOMETHING!!!! 408 look forward to renovation 9/19/20148:00 PM 409 The one way streets are hard to maneuver 9/19/2014 7:54 PM 410 Thanks. 9/19/2014 7:47 PM 411 The local, funky feel of Broadway has always been attractive at least from the 50s to today. 9/19/2014 7:41 PM 412 - Leave it alone it is fine. 9/19/2014 7.39 PM 413 1 would love if Broadway could A nice few blocks to meander, shop, and eat on the weekends 9/19/2014 7:32 PM 414 Please add a playground to attract families. 9119/20147:11 PM 415 Traffic on and around Broadway is a nightmare many times during the day! Trying to tum out of the side streets 9/19/2014 6:57 PM onto Broadway can be dangerous because its very difficult to see oncoming traffic. Pedestrians and traffic crossing Broadway onto the side streets contribute to congestion at peak periods. Put flashing lights on the crosswalk by Walgreens for increased safety and awareness. With the new interchange Broadway could become little more than a high-speed thoroughfare. 416 I'm excited about Pilates Pro Works coming to Broadway. I think that wit help the overall look of the street and will 9/19/2014 6:55 PM get more of the local Moms to Broadway. Just need other things to cater to them/me so we stick around and shop and do errands. 417 418 419 420 421 Broadway seems to be the little stepsister of Burl.Ave. Some businesses are pretty tacky, aesthitically speaking. 9/19/2014 6:43 PM Paint a lovely mural on blank wall at NE comer of EI Camino, adjacent to the gas station. I would love for a restaurant or coffee house to go into the old Brio Restaurant site. 9/19/2014 6:42 PM — 9/19/2014 6:29 PM This downtown has potential to be significant and complement to Burlingame Ave. Vie need to give it a boost and 9/19/2014 6:25 PM utilize that real estate better. Would love to see it liven up! I think there is some great potential to improve the existing businesses and attract 9/19/2014 6:19 PM other businesses that can uplift it even more. 18/22 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 422 The "fairy lights" on the trees along the street are a nice touch. 423 The area is dated and needs a major overhaul. Too funny stores that fail. The mall south of chevron is terrible and that ugly horse needs to gm NO MORE ASIAN RESTAURANTS! 424 keep it simple, keep it historical Burlingame! Don't screw it up like you did Burlingame Avenue! 425 I'm proud of our downtown area. 426 The cross walk light should be fixed at Paloma 427 428 429 430 431 432 433 434 435 436 437 438 439 440 441 442 443 444 445 Burlingame Ave. seems to be more the shopping district, while Broadway seems to be the service-oriented district (i.e. nail salons, shoe repair). It would be good for both districts to have a mix of shopping and services. You should add services to the reasons for visiting Broadway. Love the Burlingame Produce Market! Maintain lower meter rates Usually go to Burlingame Ave. area to shop and eat. I love the feel of Broadway and it always seems vibrant during the day even though there are so many empty stores. My wife and I moved to Burlingame (by Peninsula Ave. ) about 10 months ago - we like the Burlingame Avenue district a lot but the Broadway district is a real gem - it has a great small town feel to it, and some really great restaurants and shops. Parking can be tricky sometimes, but accessibility is not a huge issue. We typically drive on week days due to time conshainst, but prefer to access it via bikehmin on weekends I own 2 apartment buildings near Broadway. The tenants love walking to Broadway, but I think find it lacking in many ways. I live on Burlingame Ave and walk everywhere. Broadway doesn't have anything that compels me to drive over. There is a spate of illegal U-tums mid -block on Broadway that Burlingame choses to ignore. Restaurants that attracts the younger generation often forgets that this is a family community . When they drink they are scattered every where and there behavior is hard not to hear and notice . Broadway is the gateway to Burlingame. Needs updates and City's encouragement to attract non -corporate stores. Enough already on Burlingame Ave and it's completely changed the face of that section of town. The purchasing of the beautiful old Post Office building for the purpose of more commercial stores is ludicrous!!! What are our councilmen thinking? Shame on you. I will certainly be more careful next election!! I really hope that Broadway gets a renovation and some life breathed into it. Its so conveniently located. Its a shame there are not more places that I frequent on it. The selection and variety is lacking considering how many blocks the street takes up. I love that it is there and wish it didn't get ignored when it comes to it's upkeep. Burlingame Ave got a face lift? at least one intersection with flashing pedestrian crossing signal lights I hardly go there, parking is so difficult, streets are so narrow. The Commercial District is great Parking can be a pain, at peak hours. No Broadway is ugly. It is the gateway to our beautiful city and it is a terrible first impression. It needs a facelift. Its tacky. 446 Way too many nail and hair salons 447 Burlingame is lacking in the arts. Broadway could be a quaint local art writer - gallery, artist studio space, acting troupe space and little theater, dance/music venue jaz7/chamber music 448 I've always felt that the Bgame Ave district was nicer, but since the construction project the difference btwn broadway and Bgame ave is even starker. Broadway frankly looks rundown. It seems like broadway has more restaurant options than Bgame Ave. Maybe focus on making it an attractive and eclectic restaurant district and it might actually become a destination. 19/22 9/19/2014 6:18 PM 9/19/2014 6:11 PM 9/19/2014 6:08 PM 9/19/2014 6:07 PM 9/19/2014 6 03 PM 9/19/2014 6:02 PM 9/19/2014 5:58 PM 9/19/2014 5:46 PM 9/19/2014 5:44 PM 9/19/2014 5:22 PM 9/19/2014 5:19 PM 9/19/2014 5:19 PM 9/19/2014 5:17 PM 9/19/2014 5:16 PM 9/19/2014 5:14 PM 9/19/2014 5:10 PM 9/19/2014 5:05 PM 9/19/2014 5.02 PM 9/19/2014 5:00 PM 9/19/2014 5:00 PM 9/19/2014 4:57 PM 9/19/20144:54 PM 9/19/2014 4:52 PM 9/19/2014 4:52 PM 9/19/2014 4:49 PM 9/1912014 4:48 PM 9!1912014 4:45 PM BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 449 Almost no reason to go there - except Starbucks and I live in Easton addition and would rather drive to avenue - 9/19/2014 4:45 PM more restaraunts - stores that actually have items to sell- vacancies make it look like a dump 450 While I think the Burlingame Ave project came out nicely, parking is a nightmare there. Please don't let that 9/19/2014 4:44 PM happen on Broadway. 451 Parking parking parking While the angle parking is easier for most people to perform, parallel Parking would 9/19/2014 4:41 PM make the street slightly wider. 452 I've lived in Burlingame long enough to accept the street as it is. 9/19/2014 4:41 PM 453 - Please dont close broadway like you did to Burlingame Ave. Burlingame Ave has taken forever and then you end 9/19/2014 4:41 PM up with less parking. The poor businesses who have to keep their doors open despite the heavy work happening outside their door. Sorry to see Crossa!nt Cafe and The Melt close due to the roadworks. Sidewalk looks so dirty and we have to pay to have someone power wash it. 454 Love the new look! _ 9/19/2014 4:39 PM 455 1 love Broadway; I have only lived in Burlingame for 3+ years and we call it the Old School block when we 9/19/2014 4:35 PM describe it to anyone. It has what you need but it looks like grandma decorated it. Please give it a bit of a facelift. 456 The shops have a dirty, run down feel. It feels downscale compared to the Avenue. 9/19/2014 4:34 PM 457 Consider providing city matching funds for landowners updating their facades (updates which meet certain 9/19/2014 4:32 PM criteria to retain the character of the street). 458 this could be a great street just needs some forward thinking and TLC 9/19/2014 4:32 PM 459 Your survey did not include services (like hair and nails) which I also use on Broadway. 9/19/2014 4:31 PM 460 Keep reasonable parking facilities. 9/19/2014 4:30 PM 461 Please don't bring in high-end shops and make it super commercial big business focus like Burlingame Ave. Its 9/1912014 4:28 PM nice to have a variety of different areas, so the more down-to-earth, local downtown feel of Broadway is a nice contrast to Budingame Ave, where many people come from outside of Burlingame and shop. 462 No more smoke or alcohol shops. We liked the hardware when it was there. We would also use a copy center or 9/19/2014 4:25 PM office supply store! 463 Since the beginning of the construction on Burlingame Avenue I've frequented Broadway about 3X as much. 9/19/2014 4:21 PM Now, I don't know why I'd go back. 464 Regarding the question below about contacting me about Broadway- that's fine but do NOT add me to any city 9/19/2014 4.21 PM council member's election email fstl!! 465 Broadway is a major thoroughfare but it's run-down and several restaurants are struggling. I'd love to see it 9/19/2014 4:19 PM updated like Burlingame Avenue. 466 It would be great to see Broadway get the kind of attention that Burlingame Ave did. A face lift is needed. 9/19/2014 4:18 PM 467 This district is fumbling and without the cache of the Ave. It requires an innovative re -design (not just paving and 9/19/2014 4:17 PM landscaping) 468 Usually there to pick up smaller things/items or go to hank/postoffice. 9/19/2014 4:14 PM 469 Thanks for this opportunity. 9/19/2014 4:14 PM 470 Would love for broadway to have similar newer / cleaner I nicer feel as Burlingame ave but maybe with its current 9/19/2014 4:13 PM level of diversity in restaurants and. establishments. 471 Not that I can think of. 9/19/2014 4:09 PM 472 Be more creative with the street: how about some art, it's Broadway, make it festive. Clean up the past office, at 9/19/2014 4:08 PM least trim the bushes. 473 1 know Broadway is narrow so it may be impossible to follow-thru on my suggestions. 9/19/2014 4:08 PM 474 - The whole area needs to undergo a renaissance. 9/19/2014 4:06 PM 475 Broadway needs a facelift. It's boring and drab. 9/19/2014 4:05 PM 476 Encourage better signage. More cafes. More walkabillty, . 911912014 4:05 PM 20/22 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 477 Its very quaint and would be nice to keep it that way. Maybe block off a few blocks of it and make it walking only! 9119/2014 4:04 PM With lots of outdoor seating and dining options. Too many cars are flying down it with impatient drivers. 478 Broadway is equally deserving of investment as was Burlingame Ave 9119/2014 4:04 PM 479 Needs to be updated. New sidewalks, benches, plants, street lighting, flashing lights in the crosswalks 9/19/2014 4:03 PM 480 1 have visited Broadway more often in the past; Burlingame Ave has so much more to offer that I only go to - 9/19/2014 4:02 PM Broadway if I need to. 481 Great place to eat if you can find parking before your reservation expires 9/19/2014 4:02 PM 482 1 am filling this out on my mothers behalf. It doesn't need to look like the avenue, keep it small and simple and an 9/19/2014 4:01 PM old town feel, do not modernize it. My mom has lived here since 1965. 483 There needs to be a serious re -design of street traffic on Broadway 9/19/2014 4:01 PM 484 Go big or go home - too many small outlets; need to combine properties and make bigger to attract wider range 9/19/2014 3:59 PM of offerings/brands. 485 The city need to keep the sidewalks cleaner. There is always stuck gum, dirt, and unidentified things on the side 9/19/2014 3:57 PM walks. Burlingame Ave, doesn't have this problem but the sidewalks are sometimes disgusting on Broadway. 486 Burlingame is in real trouble. Complete lack of leadership. All the attention is always on Burlingame Ave - which 9/19/2014 3:57 PM now accurately reflects the "superior" attitude of some of the City Council. All fluff- no substance. Thankfully, I moved from Burlingame to a neighboring "town" (same zip). I do like to do frequent Broadway businesses and restaurants. 487 The dway downtown is very shabby Need upscale restaurants and shops! It's disgraceful for a town such as 9/19/2014 3:55 PM cur's! 488 1 really enjoy living in the Burlingame Community. 9/19/2014 3:55 PM 489 Why go to broadway when you have budingame downtown area which is much better and more dynamic? 9119/2014 3:55 PM 490 It seems very tired especially compared to new Burlingame Ave 9/19/2014 3:51 PM 491 What the hell is going on with the roadwork on Carolan? What are they doing and when will it be finished? And 9/19/2014 3:46 PM can someone PLEASE work on the timing of the traffic lights! The worst on the planet, 492 Update some of broadway. Its a bit too old. I grew up in Burlingame, and Broadway should evolve a bit more 9/19/2014 3:37 PM with the times. 493 Has anyone ever counted the number of nail and hair salons? Good heavens! If they stay in business I guess we 9/19/2014 3:28 PM needthem, 494 The whole street is depressing and nearly blighted, inconsistent with budingame's image. 9/19/2014 3:16 PM 495 1 always prefer to be in b avenue because there are gifty shops/clothing and even if not shopping it's nice to walk 9/19/2014 2:42 PM around and window shop. Seem to have more inviting cafes and restaurants. I know broadway has a lot if restaurants but something about the space is not very inviting. Also, there is a little park right off of b eve, to which we like to bring our kids. Maybe having a park near or on broadway would be nice 496 1 love living near Broadway. I wish there were a few things there (a book store, a take-out place, a stationery 9/19/2014 2:30 PM store, etc.). I get a feeling that the City feels that it is the "tuor sister" to Burlingame Avenue. I think that is a same. There is no reasons that more can't been done to allow for two vibrant areas in town. 497 Why doesn't Caltrain have a stop at Broadway? There are numerous residents close by and all those hotel 9/19/2014 2:22 PM rooms... 498 No more nail or hair salons. Sidewalks are filthy. Slow down traffic. _ 9/19/2014 2:05 PM 499 no 9/19/2014 1:39 PM 500 1 love the way the Earthbeam Store looks. The building is well kept and I love the plants that are potted. Looks 9/19/2014 1:32 PM very nice. More 501 Please don't replace sidewalk surfaces with the cracking, dirty, slippery and expensive material that you used on 9/19/20141:25 PM Bgame Ave. 502 I'd like to see local convenient places. I like the feel and quieter side of Broadway. However, I am not opposed to 9/19/2014 1:18 PM the idea of completely revitalizing it if that is what it is being planned. 21 /22 BROADWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SURVEY 503 Glad you guys are looking at this! Broadway always felt like the forgotten downtown. 9/1912014 1:10 PM 22/22
