Burlingame, at the Council's Chambers at 501 Primrose Road,
Burlingame.
6. Oral or written protests may be made at said hearing. To
count in the majority protest against the assessment, a protest
must be in writing. A written protest may be withdrawn in writing
at any time before the conclusion of the public hearing. Each
written protest shall identify the business and its address,
include a description of the business and the number of employees.
If the person signing the protest is not shown on the official
records of the City of Burlingame as the owner of the business,
then the protest shall contain or be accompanied by written
evidence that the person is the owner of the business. Any written
protest as to the regularity or sufficiency of the proceeding shall
be in writing and clearly state the irregularity or defect to which
objection is made.

record written protests by the owners of businesses within the
District which will pay fifty percent (50%) or more of the total
assessments of the entire District, no assessment for 1996-1997
shall occur. If the majority written protest is only as to an
improvement or activity proposed, then that type of improvement or
activity shall not be included in the District for the 1996-1997
fiscal year.
