Dedicated to Empowering and Informing the Burlingame Community

After wondering whether Burlingame has become the location for too many altercations and assaults recently, the Daily Journal has written an article today on that subject.

Three establishments seem to have had problems – Fanny & Alexander, Blush and Hola. Palo Alto has found an interesting solution by providing a taxi stop close to the nightclub so patrons can find a ride, a restroom and a place to sit. They also have more open discussions with their police department.

What a strange world when some of these fights start with a comment about how "someone is dressed or leaning against somebody's car". Starbucks used to have fight problems, do they still?

Hope these businesses can somehow find a solution with the help of our great Police Department who are always there to help.
