RE: TEEN PROGRAMMING
We would like to update you on teen programs and Youth Advisory Committee
(YAC) activities that have taken place in 2000 and what is planned for 2001.
First the accomplishments of the YAC. The first YAC was started in September
of 1999 and they continued to work until their term expired in June of 2000. After
a slow start due to the past teen coordinator's departure in December of 1999 the
group has been active in planning programs and taking part in community
�-- activities.
YAC achievements for 2000
Middle School Dance (BIS, OLA, St. Catherine's) -March '99 300 participants
Bake Goods & Coffee Booth @ Art in the Park
BBQ Booth @ Music in the Park (5 Sundays in July)
Candy Booth @ Rotary's Safe Halloween Night
Pictures with Santa @ Parks & Rec Holiday Faire
Assisting @ Holiday Tree Lighting
(YAC members passed out literature about YAC at most events.)
Tim came aboard in early 2000 to coordinate the teen program, as well as
elementary school sports and vacation camps. After having a very successful
middle school dance Tim has worked with the YAC to program activities that they
thought would be appealing to teens.

Burlingame Youth Advisory Committee
hosted the first city wide middle school
dance, involving students from St.
Catherine's, Our Ladies of Angels and
Burlingame Intermediate School. The
evening was a success, drawing over 300
students from around the city.
T,
Art in the Park: The Youth Advisory
Committee set up a booth to sell coffee and
baked goods. This event was a huge
success.
Music in the Park: The Music in the Park
event was held on Sundays in July at
Washington Park. This was one of the first
YAC activities of the 2000-2001 season. The
event served as both a fund-rasier and as a
publicity event for the committee.
Safe Streets Halloween Event: The
Burlingame Youth Advisory Committee
aided in this event by handing out pieces
of candy to trick -or -treaters. The event was
put on by local merchants in conjunctioM
with the Burlingame Rotary to promote a
safe and healthy Halloween.

Mr. Donald Cory
833 Alpine Avenue
Burlingame, CA 94010
Dear Don:
Last week you appeared before the Parks & Recreation Commission to discuss three items. I am
a little confused because all of these items have been discussed with you before and both our staff
and Public Works staff has followed up on several occasions upon your concerns about conditions
along Carolan in your neighborhood. Nevertheless, I can report the following:
1. Conditions along Carolan. Parks Division staff did trim the oleander bushes along Carolan
that were damaged in the traffic accident some months ago. They appear to be bouncing
back. Again next Spring we will look at all the plantings on the City strip alongside
Carolan. It is very difficult to get anything to grow quickly in that area because of the lack
of water service.
The load of trash that was dumped by the cable installer when they worked along Carolan
was removed after you pointed it out some time ago. That followup was done by the
Public Works Department.
The several loads of materials
stored out
there presently are
the property
of the Joint
Powers Board
(CalTrain)
and
are
located
on their
property,
to be used
in
their work.
You were correct, the porta pottie was tipped over. Public Works staff advises me that it
is for the Joint Powers Board workers' use and that kids seem to tip it over regularly. It is
upright as of this minute.
2. Park swings. As we discussed before, we are prohibited from having small children's
swings and large swings on the same swing set. The Alpine play area is so small that we
could only have one or the other. The Alpine Park Committee (two of your neighbors
with small children; a Park & Recreation Commissioner; Recreation staff that work with
children; and Parks staff that are in the parks every day) made the decision to have only
the small swings, along with the climbing and playing equipment. Neither I nor my staff
made the decision regarding the equipment at Alpine Park. We have received many
compliments from the mothers of small children regarding the "new" Alpine Park.
3. Oak tree in Washington Park. I am sorry, but I do not share your opinion of the Oak tree
you described in Washington Park. I believe it to be a beautiful tree in a beautiful park.
As Tim Richmond previously discussed with you, Washington Park is not a wild and
`— natural park. It is a heavily used park and we have an obligation to raise the lower limbs
in order to insure safe access under the tree, to leave clear lines of visibility for park users
(including hundreds of attendees at the summer music concert series), and to try and make
it impossible for children or adults to climb in the tree. Thank you for the gift of the tree.
It was a great addition to the park.
Thank you for your concerns about Burlingame. Please call on me or on Parks Superintendent
Tim Richmond if you have any further questions.
Sincerely,
Jo". Williams
