Public Facilities
Burlingame has a number of public facilities in addition to its civic
buildings. The wastewater treatment plant, located on Airport Boulevard,
provides primary, secondary and some tertiary treatment for the city,
its sphere of influence (Burlingame Hills) and about half of Hillsborough.
A water distribution system is also provided for this geographical area
by the city. Finally, the city provides trash collection and limited
trash disposal on a site adjacent to the wastewater treatment facility
on Airport Boulevard. These disposal facilities serve only city residents
and municipal needs.
4. Add section on existing population and population projections
a. General Plan document, page 9, following line 15: add section
Population
In 1970, 27,320 people lived in the City of Burlingame. About 23%
of these people were under the age of 18 and 14% were over 64. By
1980 the city's population had declined by 4% to 26,173. But the
most dramatic change was in age composition. By 1980 about 16% of
the city's residents were under 18 and about 20% were over 64. Fewer
children were also reflected in changes in average household size.
In 1970 there were 2.41 persons per household on the average. This
had declined by 14% to 2.08 in 1980. The impact of the declining
household size is particularly dramatic in a community like Burlingame
where there are no large vacant tracts of land suitable for residential
development. The inevitable result, when housing stock is more or less
fixed and the number of persons in a household is declining, is that
the total population declines as well.
-2 -
Population projections for Burlingame are based on build -out of vacant
and underused residential land to the densities given in the General
Plan. Projections of household size reflect a continuation but gradual
leveling off in the decline of average household size. However,
the critical factor in the population range given is the rate of
new residential construction. The lower end of the range assumes a
holding capacity will be reached between 2000 and 2010. The high end
of the population range assumes holding capacity will be reached closer
to 1995.
