From the Daily Journal today:

The Burlingame Planning Commission met yesterday and discussed the proposed zoning of the Trousdale West area. Within the recommendation was a minimum number of adults who could live in an assisted-living facility. It was recommended that no more than 60 adults be allowed per acre.

However, Sunrise Senior Living is proposing a 79-unit facility on 1818
Trousdale Drive to house 95 people. Daniel Zemanek, the senior vice president of development for Sunrise Senior Living, proposed the zoning numbers be taken out and reconsidered. The board has approved the zoning minus the paragraph limiting the number of adults allowed to live per acre in an assisted living facility. The plan for the new facility was introduced last night. While Sunrise has facilities in San Mateo and Belmont, this will be the first in Burlingame. Zemanek guessed it is about two years out before the facility could open.

The commission also amended the zoning for the Broadway commercial area allowing small real estate businesses with strict restrictions on the size of the office and the workers within.
