In response to an inquiry from Councilman {q1gini' lity-Plannerreferrid to the Negative'Declaration, ND-159P, which indicated total

Cbuncilman Manginl asked Mr. Raiser if it was his contention that he
is meeting code parking for restaurants and office buildings with
the I89 parking ipaces-and 20 per cent landscaping. Mr. Raiser re-
plied: That is correct.
Councilman l,lartin asked about full-size and compact spaces. Council
was informed that all of the schemes have thirty comPact spaces with
the exception of one whlch has thirty-one.
Councltwoman Barton inquired about the Negatlve Declaration which
indicates the plan ts minus thirty standatd size parking sPaces.
City Planner rLplied that the subject of the variance was thirty

use, the requtred total would be 156 sPaces.

Councilwoman Barton inquired of City Planner if there really is adeficiency of parking, and he replied that he had referred to a
survey taken in 1974. As an example, the Fisherman is way below
other restaurants in meeting parking requirements and, therefote,
supplies vaLet off-site parking. But this is a single-purposespecialty restaurant. The existing regulations are being used, butit is dlfficuLt to see how to handle the mixed use at lunch time.
Councilman Amstrup questioned whether the parking is adequate foroffice and restaurant if luncheon is served. Mt. Raiser confirmed
he would be willing to supply vatet parking if requlred. That
would add approximately nineteen spaces if valet parking took up
the entire bLock.
Councilman Martin pointed out that the original scheme for parklng
inctuded L89 spaces. Valet parking picks up 19 spaces. Total,
2O8. Compared to 205, the orlginal scheme is best with conditions
proposed by Council . He also suggested on the motion that rather
than spell out the twenty per cent landscaping, it be tled into
the original site plan so it is all-incLusive. The final site plan
r,rill be basicaLly ln agreement with the original plan.
Councilman Manginirs motion, as amended, was to approve the Variance

oiiginal proposal as submitted, tncluding (l) T\"renty per cent Land-
scaping. (2) A shell of the restaurant to be submitted for Council
rev-iew. (3) Any use of the top floor to requtre approval of
Council . (4) 189 parking spaces including 30 compact size to be

Counci.lman Amstrup requested that it be perfectly clear thatthere is to be a restaurant in this buildlng.

BURLINGAME CITY COUNCIL
SPECIAL STUDY MEETING
JUNE 21 , 1978
PRESENT: COUNCILMEMBERS AMSTRUP , BARTON, CROSBY, MANGINI , MARTIN
STAFF: Schwalm, Argyres, Bergsing, Fricke, Hoffman,
Kirkup, Palmer, Swan.
The Study Meeting was called to order by Mayor Crosby at 8 : 50 p.m. ,
following adjournment of an adjourned regular meeting from the
regular meeting of June 19, 1978 . He declared the purpose of this
meeting to be for budget consideration and requested Vice-Mayor
Amstrup , Budget Chairman, to preside .
Vice-Mayor Amstrup referred to the Preliminary City Council Jarvis
Reductions list and read the items thereon. He also referred to a
letter just received from P . G. & E. Company, which points out that
there will be a rate decrease amounting to $27 , 000 .
Mr. Argyres stated there is still no information from the State
about getting any money back to the cities . In accordance with
the Jarvis-Gann initiative, the City of Burlingame may need to cut
as much as $1 , 700 , 000 off the budget for 1978-1979. Another
possibility is $1 , 000 , 000 reduction, which assumes that the City is
receiving a pro-rata share of the one per cent remaining property tax .
In answer to an inquiry , Vice-Mayor Amstrup replied that Item 7 does
not include the Burlingame Chamber of Commerce .
Councilman Martin referred to the Priority Lists of Budget Cuts from
each City Department . He suggested it might not be possible to cut
19 . 62 per cent from every budget . Looking at each Department,
Council may find items that will help make reductions without hurting
City services too much, and with the understanding that some of them
may be put back when all the figures are compiled . The reductions
also are not permanent until the State ' s decision is received, and
everything possible is being done to save personnel .
Vice-Mayor Amstrup suggested the discussion start with consideration
of the first item on each Department list . Councilman Martin referred
to the Police hepar en adget and-the first two items which refer to
Police Crossing Guards . However, the two items are not compatible .
He suggested each Department Priority List be discussed and cut by
5 per cent tonight . This suggestion was agreed upon and Vice-Mayor
`- Amstrup proceeded with discussion of the Preliminary Budget as recom-
mended by the City Manager. The deductions further recommended by
City Council were then itemized .
-2-
City Council: Travel-Conference Deduct $2,475.
City Manager: Office Expense 700.
Maintenance of Equipment 235.
Dues & Subscriptions 554.
Travel-Conferences 200.
Training-Safety 250.
Deduct $1,939.
Councilman Martin remarked that concerning travel and conference
item reductions, considering all of the changes being proposed, he
felt it important to keep informed. He requested there be a fund
to approve conferences such as one being held in Sacramento. If
there is to be air fare and overnight expenses, the request should
be approved by City Council. Vice-Mayor Amstrup stated this could
be left in the contingency fund.
City Clerk: Capital Outlay
New electric typewriter Deduct $645.
Dr. Betty McNamara was recognized from the audience and she requested
the budget pages being discussed be projected on the screen so the
audience would be able to examine the items line by line. She
suggested the audience would like to participate more in the kinds of
`- reductions being made by Council.
Vice-Mayor Amstrup stated this is basically a study meeting where the
Council is discussing items the Department Heads have said they could
do without. Councilman Martin confirmed this and explained this is
not a budget hearing, but rather for the benefit of Council. Those
in attendance can listen and later, at an official meeting, can
participate. Councilwoman Barton asked if there was some way the
audience could at least see what was being discussed? Mr. Charles
Hager from the audience offered to make transparencies from a master
copy of the budget if Council so desired. It was agreed to continue
the meeting under the present circumstances as there was no means of
preparing transparencies for this evening's meeting.
Vice-Mayor Amstrup continued with the following discussion:
Finance: Extra Help $1,000.
Office Expense 1,300.
Maintenance of Equipment 1,900.
Travel, conference & Meetings 400.
Training & Safety 200.
Deduct $4,800.
Reference was made to the check signing machine needed to replace the
fifteen-year-old model being used, which requires repair and is
difficult to operate. The new one was approved and it is considered
it will pay for itself in less than two years.
-3-
City Treasurer: Extra Help $848 .
Maintenance & Operations 100 .
Professional Service 500 .
Training & Safety 250 .
Deduct $1 , 698 .
An auditor was employed last year to review the Hotel/Motel Tax
revenue and it proved very worthwhile . Mr. Argyres stated this
was the first audit of this account, and it is hoped there will
be no problems this year . If there should be a necessity, an
appeal will be made to Council for additional funds .
City Attorney : Extra Help $552 .
Special Departmental Expense 300 .
Travel , Conference, & Meetings 300 .
Training & Safety 200 .
Capital Outlay 220 .
Deduct $1 , 572 .
Vice-Mayor Amstrup called attention to Other Department Account
29 . 3 Contingency Appropriation of $425 , 000 and stated this is an
essential item. Mr. Argyres stated we have already cut $320 , 000
of this amount which was for salary increases next year . The
contingency figure is really $105 , 000 .
Vice-Mayor Amstrup asked if Council wished to follow Councilman
Martin ' s suggestion to consider the Department budgets and reduce
each by 5 per cent? It was agreed to stay at the top of each
Priority List .
At Mayor Crosby ' s suggestion, Councilman Martin explained that
Council had conferred with Department Heads and requested they
supply lists starting with the lowest priority item as number one .
He referred to his discussion with Police Chief Palmer and they
had received input from the Police Association. There are thirty-
eight items on the Police Department list involving a 32 per cent
reduction, which is completely impractical . Not every item will
be accepted by Council , that is why 5 per cent should be considered
rather than take 40 per cent from one Department . The City has
always operated efficiently , that is why reductions are difficult.
Vice-Mayor Amstrup briefly reviewed items which had already been
eliminated from the Department of Public Works . These were already
included in the $681 , 000 and amount to well over the 5 per cent of
their priority items :
1 . Disconnect electric services to signs that have been off since
the energy crisis .
-4-
2 . Reduce rodent control program--County Vector Control .
3 . Place garden pick-up on regular garbage bill .
4 . Eliminate Assistant Electrician position. The City Electrician
is retiring . The present Assistant will be promoted and his
position will not be filled .
5 . Reduce street sweeping. Rather than sweep six times , they will
sweep three times . The second street sweeper will be put in
moth balls for ten months of the year.
6 . Reduce street lighting expenses by eliminating every other light
on California Drive from Peninsula Avenue to Lorton and Burlingame
Avenues .
Library: Mayor Crosby reported that a petition had been presented
to Council this evening bearing 102 names concerned with
the closing of the Easton Branch Library . There are also
letters in this regard and Council has not yet made a
decision.
Mrs . Bergsing explained the following reductions :
Tags for security system $4 , 950 .
Roof repair 2 , 514 .
New Library Assistant 8 , 730 .
Miscellaneous Expense 25 .
Extra Help 1 , 294 .
Water Expense 500 .
Conferences - personnel 350 .
Travel 200 .
Dues & Subscriptions 400 .
Training 300 .
Maintenance of Equipment-audio visual 63 .
Maintenance of Equipment-office, etc. 86 .
Small tools and equipment 75 .
Communications 658 .
Reserves--Extra Help 1 , 580 .
Reduction in personnel :
(1 3/4 f . t.e . , not any one person. )
Sat . closing, Main Library 6 - 9 2 , 812 .
Fri . closing, Branch 6 - 9 1 , 163 .
Sat. closing, Branch 10 - 1 1 , 163 .
Deduct $26, 863 .
Mayor Crosby stated the hours of closing are times when there is not
much patronage . The Library Budget reflects full-time equivalent
(f . t .e . ) of thirty-two people . Roughly one-half are part-time and
represent thirty to forty people . The full-time staff is fifteen.
-5-
This is a reduction in hours--no terminations .
Mrs . Bergsing explained that the Hillsborough Library System Contract
was not renewed . The Library Board raised non-resident user ' s fee
to $75 . 00 a year in conjunction with San Mateo ' s fee, which they
approved last week. There will be no courtesy cards for people who
work in Burlingame but live in Hillsborough, and no student cards,
and no Burlingame property owners who live in Hillsborough .
Councilman Martin suggested ID cards be carefully checked . In
answer to an inquiry from Vice-Mayor Amstrup, Mrs . Bergsing stated
Hillsborough could not use the Burlingame System without paying for
it . The rate a year ago was $50 . It is possible that the increase
will produce $20 , 000 revenue . She explained Hillsborough ' s decision
to cancel their contract with the City of Burlingame was the result
of Proposition 13 . However, the Grand Jury felt it was illegal for
them not to offer library service to their residents .
Councilwoman Barton stated several persons had approached her who
would be willing to pay for a library card. Mrs . Bergsing responded
they are seeking a judgment on whether or not it is legal . You cannot
charge for certain things on the basis of double taxation. At this
moment, the State Librarian has sent a memo about this and a copy is
available .
Councilman Martin explained he is very reluctant to cut book funds .
Referring to Best Sellers , which are popular when first published
but do not move thereafter, he suggested a lending library system on
that type of material . Two volumes would be reserved for regular
service and the other six volumes would be paid for in a rental
library situation . This way patrons can obtain the book if they want
it, but the Library is not forced to spend money on that type of book.
Mrs . Bergsing replied that she has approached the Friends of the
Library for " seed money" to buy the first group. Other libraries
are doing this and she agrees with this approach .
Councilman Martin stated that if the Friends of the Library do not
provide seed money, the City should do so . Mrs . Bergsing said they
would not put anything into that collection that was not available
from the regular library shelf, so that you do not force people into
the rental collection.
Vice-Mayor Amstrup stated that including the reductions so far, the
cut from the budget amounts to $708 , 165 .
Councilman Martin read correspondence from Police Chief Palmer
concerning his Budget Priorities totaling $433 , 342 plus $1 , 500 for
�' utilities .
-6-
Police : Eliminate one-third of the Crossing Guards $9, 152 .
Councilman Martin answered an inquiry from
Dr. McNamara that every crossing guard location
has been rated in accordance with accepted State
warrants . Chief Palmer remarked that if only
one-third of the Crossing Guards are eliminated ,
an additional $18 , 000 will be required for the
remaining Crossing Guards , which might involve
full-time personnel .
Reduce communication update 10 , 000 .
Special Services Account (This is actually a
revolving revenue account . Salary of officers
who serve at various functions is reimbursed
by the employing agency . )
Eliminate replacement motorcycle 3 , 100 .
Eliminate motorscooter replacement 4, 500 .
Eliminate one metermaid incl . fringe benefits 16 , 830 .
(Not replacing a metermaid who is resigning . )
Eliminate metermaid overtime 700 .
Eliminate tape recorder 300 .
Eliminate 4 desk replacements 1 , 600 .
Eliminate file cabinet 165 .
Eliminate 3 office chairs 300 .
Eliminate fire extinguisher 250 .
�- Reduce travel 1 , 450
Eliminate Intern--duties assumed by Meter
Serviceman. 2 , 704 .
Eliminate one clerk incl . fringe benefits 13 , 584 .
Eliminate Traffic Sergeant hazard pay 1 , 390 .
Eliminate three police vehicles 16 , 600 .
Addition of $1 , 500 to utility accounts (1 , 500 . )
Deduct $81 , 125 .
Councilman Mangini had proposed combining the Police and Fire Depart-
ment Dispatchers . This results in a saving in both Departments . The
Communications Department would be located in the Police Department
and both Chief Fricke and Chief Palmer do not have any particular
objection to this consolidation . This does not involve Public Works
and Park Department calls during the week days . They will continue
to handle their calls through their systems . The week-end and night
calls will continue to be handled by the Police and Fire Dispatcher
Center, as it is done now. It is really a combination of Police and
Fire Dispatcher systems in one location with one piece of equipment .
Councilman Martin stated that up to this point the level of service
reduction to the public is relatively small .
-7-
Councilman Mangini spoke of the importance of the Safety Department,
especially the Fire Department, and that any reduction in the budget
of this Department would make the general welfare less desirable.
There must be manpower and equipment ready to extinguish any fire .
Without this protection, the City also might have a lower insurance
rating and hich insurance rates mean higher costs to the individual
taxpayer.
The Dispatchers would all go to the Police Department and the
dispatching can then be done by eight persons . The Police Department
has six and the Fire Department has four. The Fire Department would
need a secretary and if one of the Dispatchers would consider a
reduction in pay, that person might fill the position. That is a
net saving of one, if it is possible to do the work with only one
secretary . Both Chiefs agree this is a right move . There would
also be the added expense of moving , but included is the reduction
of equipment needed .
Fire Department : Transfer of Dispatcher-Clerks ,
(one clerical position $8 , 000 . ) $9, 000 .
Capital Outlay and 50% hose
replacement 5 , 142 .
Reduce maintenance & operations
budget by 15% 11 , 434 .
Compensatory time off for present
holiday pay, reduces on-duty strength
by one man per shift-meet and confer
item. (This presents a possible
legal question. ) 48 , 500 .
Deduct $74 , 076 .
Total reductions from the budget amount to $863, 366 .
The Recreation Department Budget is down 5 .4 per cent as submitted
by the City Manager . This is the result of the retirement of a
Custodian , with the elimination of the position,. Mr . Wagner stated
also that this 1978-1979 Budget is just about fifty per cent self-
sustaining .
Recreation : Increase recreation income by increases
in fees $20 , 000 .
Eliminate summer building set-up 150 .
Convert teen dances and trips to
self-supporting 300 .
Eliminate summer girl ' s softball program 300 .
Eliminate clothing and uniform allowance 120 .
Convert summer day camp and resident camp
to self-supporting 440 .

Convert summer trips for boys and girls
�- to self-sustaining $500 .
Confert summer movie programs to self-
supporting 250 .
Eliminate dues and subscriptions 255 .
Reduce travel and conferences 690 .
Eliminate new tennis court lights 5 , 724 .
Deduct $28 , 729.
Light fixtures and lamps to replace those at Washington Park Tennis
Courts , which have been found very expensive to operate . The new
system will be much less expensive to operate , and , according to
the lighting engineer from Westinghouse , will pay for itself in
three years . The Department has $100 , 000 State Grant funds from
which they will try to allocate a sufficient amount to cover this
project . Night lighted tennis charges $1 . 00 an hour for lights .
It does pay for itself.
Vice-Mayor Amstrup inquired if there are funds to take care of
young people who are needy so they may partake in programs without
embarrassment? Mr. Wagner stated they do provide a free swim pass
and other group activities so they will have a well-rounded summer.
In September there will be a paragraph in the brochure stating that
if there are children who do not have funds to participate, assistance
might be provided . Councilwoman Barton suggested consideration could
be given to families with two or three children.
Councilman Amstrup inquired about the program at Cuernavaca Park,
which was discussed at the Mills Estate Improvement meeting .
Mr. Wagner said they have coordinated with Hoover School for a
playground program at Hoover School for this summer . At no cost to
the City, one of his supervisors will train and supervise the
Recreation Leader and two volunteers at Hoover School . They already
have fifty some children signed up . The parents of the children are
paying $10 . 00 for each . The School P . T.A. , is giving $174 . 00 .
Mr . Wagner stated there are basketball leagues and Burlingame High
School has negotiated to give him the gym, as long as custodial
services are provided , three nights a week, Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday . It is strictly league play , no open play . There are no
gyms open in the City . With funds Council allocated , it will
probably be possible to open Intermediate School two hours an after-
noon, Monday through Thursday, starting next week for seven weeks .
Dr. McNamara inquired why the girls ' softball was eliminated . She
mentioned Title IX law which requires that there be equal opportun-
ities for both girls and boys . Councilwoman Barton had asked the
-9-
same question and was told there are not that many girls that
participate in softball . Bobbysox is extremely popular, but this
recreation program is not well attended . Mr. Wagner stated the
boys baseball program is completely self-sustaining , and the soft-
ball for girls would have to cost each girl about $10 . 00 for thirty
participants . There are only twenty to forty participants .
Councilman Mangini remarked that the program is open to both girls
and boys , which is in accordance with the requirements of Title IX.
Mr . Wagner continued that if there was an additional $300 to spend,
it would be much better to open another gymnasium where large groups
could go rather than spend $300 on twenty-five to thirty participants ,
which also will not make a league .
Councilwoman Barton stated that when the budget was reviewed , they
considered how many youngsters participate in the programs , not male
or female , and the demand was not there . They will always keep both
girls and boys in mind for the programs offered .
Councilwoman Barton asked about pursuing the swimming program?
Mr. Wagner stated he could not pursue it without direction from
Council because funds were not allocated . Councilman Mangini stated
the High School pool has been taken over by the Red Cross for the
summer . Mr. Wagner suggested that if it is going to be open for
Mr. Campagna, the Recreation Department could perhaps receive it at
a minimum cost because they would have it heated in the morning and
could turn off the heater at 1 : 00 o ' clock when they leave and it
would be warm enough in the afternoon for the recreation program.
He will obtain the cost . Chief Palmer suggested that perhaps the
Police Association might sponsor a gym for the summer, so Mr . Wagner
will contact Mr . Zeigler at the High School for arrangements .
Mr . Wagner inquired if Council would want him to solicit advertise-
ments to be included in the new brochure? The Department prints
three a year. There are twenty-four to thirty-two pages . The total
cost is about $7 , 500 . Approximately $4, 000 comes from fees and
charges . Councilwoman Barton suggested he obtain information for
Council ' s further consideration.
Park Director Hoffman opened his remarks by calling attention to
the fact that he had based his budget figures on last year' s budget
amounts rather than the City Manager ' s suggested amounts and will
have to give it additional thinking . His request for an aerial lift
truck was discussed . There are similar trucks in the Fire Department
and the Electrical Department . It was agreed to eliminate the new
L truck this year and arrange with the other departments for the use
of their truck when needed .
Park Department : Eliminate aerial lift truck replacement $40 , 000 .
-10-
councilman Martin wished to affirm that Council has agreed in every
way to try not to eliminate personnel . He stated it is vital to
assure employees that no one will lose their jobs . It does not
apply to CETA employees . Mr. Argyres confirmed that if a City
employee is laid off , all CETA employees in the same classification
would have to be discharged .
Civil Defense : Eliminate portable generator $750 .
Total deductions = $937 , 872 .
