The voting period for the Burlingame storm drain measure closed yesterday and it appears the measure has passed by a substantial margin. If you live in the Hills, you are hoping they start repairing the pipes that are collapsing and taking out pavement. If you live in the Flats, you are hoping they start with the connectors to the bay.
Next up: the trees on Burlingame Ave near Washington Park.
interesting that this got slightly smaller percentage of “yes” votes than measure h. this wouldn’t have passed if the city had gone back for another assessed property value vote!
since it did pass…make sure the city’s measurements on your property are correct. mine have been inaccurate twice upon contacting the city. the city is using ESTIMATES on property’s impermeable area, NOT ACTUAL measurements. also using google earth photos to measure impermeable areas. accuracy is important as this will affect you for the next 30+ years!
Does anyone know if the storm drain signs are recyclable? It doesn’t say on the sign.
Agreement has been made with Allied Waste services, please put your signs on or near your trash can or recycle bins on your designated pick up day. No need to fold or cut up the signs, Allied will take as is.
I guess someone forgot to tell the guys on the Allied Waste truck. My sign and my neighbors sign got left behind today
Hey Joe Baylock…terms like “live in the hills” and “live in the flats” are a bit backward. Unless you’re ok with “hill” people being called “hillbilies”
