Serramonte Plaza Daly City, CA 94015 Dear Assemblyman Papan: TEL:(415) 342-8931 Enclosed please find a letter from the Burlingame Beautifica- tion Commission supporting increased funding of the California Conservation Corps. I would like to add my support also. I have been involved with the work of the C.C.C. since its inception, both in Burlingame and earlier when I was with the City of San Mateo. I have found the entire program to be well run a.nd of significant value to local communities, as well as the State as a whole. Perhaps of greater importance, the C.C.C. is by far the most effective job training program I have been associated with. Not only does it provide employment and useful job skills, but it also teaches basic work attitudes to the young people involved. Those who complete the C.C.C. training are cer- tainly in a posi,ti'on to become productive members of society: This is not always the case with other "make work" jobs bills. I urge you to consider the value of this program, and take whatever action you can to assure its continuation. Sincerely, Richard Director RPQ/kh P. Quadri of Parks cc: City Manager Senator John A. Foran '1 '1 z4v &fjl of A3urlinpmr SAN MATEO COUNTY CITY HALL-501 PRIMROSE ROAD BURLINGAME, CALIFORNIA 94010 August 10, 1983 Assemblyman Louis J. Papan. 343 E. Serramonte Place Daly City, CA 94015 Dear Assemblyman Papan: TEL:(415) 342-8931 It has come to the attention of the Burlingame Beautification Commission that funding for the California Conservation Corps has been sharply reduced. We recently had the opportunity to see first-hand the excellent work the C.C.C. can accomplish. As part of the Federal Jobs Bill, we were able to secure the services of the C.C.C. to re- construct trails, build •a bridge, and cut fire breaks through our Mills Canyon Wildlife Area. While this particular pro- ject was federally funded, we strongly feel that the work of the C.C.C. is valuable to the citizens of California as well as the young people who are being trained. We urge you to give this matter your serious consideration, and hope you will support efforts to restore the C.C.C. to a level where it can continue to serve our State in an efficient and effective manner. Sincerely, Arthur Carbon, Chairman Burlingame Beautification cc: City Manager Senator John F. Foran AC/RQ/kh Commission CITY OF BURLINGAME TO Honorable Mayor and City Council DATE: 8/23/83 FROM City Manager SUBJECT: NEWSPAPER RACKS --STATUS REPORT At the August 10, 1983 Study Meeting, Nita Perry of the Beautification Commission discussed with the Council her concerns about newspaper racks in Burlingame. Council directed the City Attorney to check into the matter. Jerry and I have checked with some other cities and find some potentially good ideas. Attached is a preliminary memo from Jerry and a copy of some draft work that Millbrae has done. Since more staff work and information and information is needed, I plan to assign the Park Director to follow up on this matter. He will also work with the Beautifi- cation Commission. When we have developed a draft program, including estimated City costs, we will again present the matter to Council for consideration.
