501 PRIMROSE ROAD
BURLINGAME, CA 94010
Online via Zoom7:00 PMThursday, May 12, 2022
On September 16, 2021, Governor Newsom signed into law AB 361, which allows a local agency to
meet remotely when:
1) The local agency holds a meeting during a declared state of emergency;
2) State or local health officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social
distancing; or
3) Legislative bodies declare the need to meet remotely due to present imminent risks to the health or
safety of attendees.
On April 18, 2022 the City Council adopted Resolution Number 036-2022 stating that the City Council
and Commissions will continue to meet remotely for at least thirty days for the following reasons:
1) There is still a declared state of emergency;
2) County Health Orders require that all unvaccinated individuals in public spaces maintain social
distancing and wear masks; and
3. The City can't maintain social distancing requirements for the public, staff, and Commissioners, in
their meeting spaces.
Pursuant to Resolution Number 036-2022, the City Council Chambers will not be open to the public for
the May 12, 2022 Traffic Safety and Parking Commission Meeting.

Additionally, the meeting will be streamed live on Youtube and uploaded to the City's website after the
meeting.
Members of the public may provide written comments by email to publiccomment@burlingame.org.
