LEVINE ACT  
The Levine Act (California Government Code Section 84308) prohibits, in certain cases,  
campaign contributions to members of the City Council by those who have proceedings (e.g.,  
applications for land use and other entitlements, contracts, etc.) pending before the City Council  
and by those who may have an interest in proceedings (including those acting as agents for  
applicants or potential contractors). Moreover, the Levine Act may require disclosure of  
contributions by such individuals. The law is complex, and this brief description is not legal  
advice. If you or an agent have made any campaign contributions to a City Councilmember in the  
12 months before a proceeding in which you have an interest or you are contemplating making a  
contribution within the 12 months after such a proceeding, you are urged to review the Levine Act  
and consider consulting an attorney. A 2023 version of the Levine Act and a Fair Political  
Practices Commission summary of it is published on the City's website here:  
https://www.burlingame.org/1206/Levine-Act-Information  
1. CALL TO ORDER - 5:30 p.m. - Maple Room/Zoom  
2. ROLL CALL  
3. REQUEST FOR AB 2449 REMOTE PARTICIPATION  
Announcements/consideration and approval of requests by City Councilmembers to participate  
remotely pursuant to AB 2449 (Government Code Section 54943(f)).  
4. PUBLIC COMMENTS, NON-AGENDA  
Members of the public may speak on any item not on the agenda. Members of the public wishing  
to suggest an item for a future Council agenda may do so during this public comment period.  
The Ralph M. Brown Act (the State local agency open meeting law) prohibits the City Council  
from acting on any matter that is not on the agenda.  
5. GOAL SETTING SESSION  
Successful governments plan for the future. Not just the immediate future but also for the next  
generation and the generations after them. Many cities of similar size have vision statements  
that shed light on the values of the city and vice versa.  
This Goal Setting Session seeks to generate the values and outline a vision for Burlingame for  
generations to come.  
Homework: Before the meeting consider the five values (or more) that you think best define  
Burlingame; consider what assets we have and what we are missing in Burlingame, and consider  
what you would like the City to be in twenty-five years.
