Parks and Recreation Department
Program and Facilities Master Plan
2007
April 19th DRAFT
I. Introduction
The citizens of the City of Burlingame enjoy and insist upon a high quality of life. Aportion ofthat life is
the desire for high quality parks and recreation programs and facilities. The goals of this plan are to (1) ensure
that the needs and desires of the community are being met and (2) recommend alternatives and suggestions so
the Parks and Recreation Department can better serve the community.
During the past few years, the City has added or renovated several recreational facilities (Village Park's
Cottage, the Golf Center, Soccer Center, Aquatic Center, Bayside ballfield #2, Washington Park's ballfield). Each
of these new facilities has increased the recreational opportunity for the public and has brought new recreation
participants.
In addition, the Department has seen a growth in participants due to a number of recent program additions,
particularly for Teens, Senior Citizens, and Aquatics. To meet these growing needs, and to replace the aging
Recreation Center, the City is in the beginning stages of creating a new Recreation Center.
II. Goals of Master Plan
1) To determine ifBudingame's parks and recreation facilities are effective in meeting the needs of the community,
2) To determine if programs provided by the Parks & Recreation Dept. are effective in meeting the needs ofthe
community; and
3) To determine if future facilities are needed and, if so, to identify which needs those facilities should accommodate.
City of Burlingame Profile
The City of Burlingame is built on 5.5 square miles approximately 16 miles south of San Francisco
nestled between the cities of Millbrae on the north, Hillsborough on the west, San Mateo on the south and the
San Francisco Bay on the east.
Burlingame, the City ofTrees, is named atterAnson Burlingame, a 19th-centuryAmerican politician and
diplomat. In the 1890's the Burlingame Country Club and Burlingame Avenue Train Station were constructed.
In 1906, the population was around several hundred when the Great Earthquake hit San Francisco and
Burlingame became a refuge for people looking to escape San Francisco. By 1916, the population had
expanded to 4,209. From a tiny hamlet, Burlingame rapidly developed into an ideal suburban area, becoming
an official city on June 6,1908. As of 2000 Census data, less than 100 years later, Burlingame's population is
at 28,158.
The City's residents consist of upper/middle income range with an even split between home owners and
renters. The two areas of commerce, Burlingame Avenue and Broadway, are popular to the Peninsula community,
are close to public transportation and are easily accessible from the two main highways (101 and 280).
The hospitality industry (over 10 maj or hotels are located in the hotel district east of US 101) plays a major
role in the City's economy, with nearly 30% of the annual budget being supported by Transit Occupancy Tax.
Since the attacks of September 1111, a major increase in hotel vacancies may pose a problem for the City in the
next few years.
Below is some data from the 2000 census.

IV. Structure of Burlingame's City Government
City Council The City of Burlingame operates under a Council/Manager form of government. The Council, as the
legislative body, represents the entire community and is empowered by the State to formulate city-wide policy. The five
Council Members serve at large for four-year terms. The Council selects a Mayor from among the members each November for
a one-year term.
While items are usually placed on the meeting agenda at the request of the Council or staff members, citizens who would like
the Council to review a particular item should send a formal written request to the Mayor and City Council, 501 Primrose Road,
Burlingame, CA 94010. The item will be reviewed to determine whether it should be handled administratively, referred to a
board or commission, or added to an upcoming City Council agenda. Agenda, staff reports, and other background material
may be reviewed at the City Clerk's office commencing on the Thursday afternoon before a Council meeting. Agenda and
minutes are also available on the city's website www.burlingame.org,/council/agenda minutes htm.
City Manager The City Manager, appointed by the Council, serves as the chief executive officer and is responsible for the
day-to-day administration of City affairs. The City Attorney, also appointed by the Council, advises and represents the City
and Council in all legal matters.
Commissions
An important component of the City's policy -making structure is its various City Boards and Commissions, which recommend
and advise the Council on vital policy issues. Civic -minded volunteers are appointed by the City Council for a term of two,
three, or four years. Appointments are made each year to fill expiring terms. Applications can be obtained from the City
Manager's office. All meetings are open to the public. The Parks & Recreation Department serves as the staff liaison

VI Identified Target Populations DRAFt
In an effort to ensure that the community"s recreational needs are met, the Department programs to serve eight
target groups. They are: -�
* Preschoolers (18 months to 5 year olds)
* Youth (elementary school children)
* Middle School Students (6thto 8th graders)
* High School Students (9th to 12th graders)
* Adults (ages 18 & over)
* Senior Citizens (ages 65 & over)
* Families (programs for multiple age groups)
* Burlingame Community Organizations (assist the established local groups)
VII Identified Community Needs
The California Parks & Recreation Society has identified that "by providing the space to learn & play, space to be
safe & secure and space to create & imagine, local parks and recreation agencies meet a nine -part mission to:
* Foster human development * Increase cultural unity
* Strengthen community image and sense of place * Support economic development
* Strengthen safety and security * Promote health and wellness
* Protect environmental resources * Facilitate community problem solving
* Provide recreational experiences
The California Parks & Recreation Society has identified several key program goals in its V.I.P. plan Recreation
programs are conducted by public agencies to provide (1) Socialization, (2) Education, (3) Health/Fitness, (4)
Relaxation, (5) Enjoyment, (6) Community Pride, (7) Childcare, (8) Tourism/Attract New Businesses, (9) Protect
& Enjoy Nature. Many of these program goals are inherent, to some extent, in every recreation program offered.
For example, by simply participating in any public recreation program from preschool to senior citizens activities,
by definition, one increases their recreational experiences.
For the purposes of recreation programming, the Recreation Division annually examines its own program against
four of those items to make sure that the needs of each target population in Burlingame is being met: These four
items are: (1) life-long learning opportunities,
(2) increased socialization,
(3) opportunities to increase higher fitness and health level and
(4) relaxation.

services to the Burlingmame Community. Some of these partners include:
Burlingame High School - facility use (gyms, pool, fields, track)
