Grade Separation Archway Design Comes Before Council

The decorative archway will adorn the overpass that is being built downtown for the new Caltrain station.

Although the project is far from being finished, the final picture of what San Bruno's grade separation project will look like will come clearer into view at today's City Council meeting.

The council will be receiving a report and deciding on the final design for the decorative archway for the project, which will overlook San Bruno Avenue as drivers pass under the new Caltrain station that is currently being built downtown.

According to an artist's rendering released when the project first started construction, the archway will span the length of the street above the tracks. Decorative San Bruno signs are also supposed to flank the overpass.

Also on today's meeting agenda:

  • The San Bruno Park School District will be giving a presentation about its parcel tax, which will be on the November ballot.
  • The council will be checking off on labor agreements recently reached by the city and two of its unions—mid-management and management. Three other city employee unions are still in labor negotiations.
  • The city treasurer will be giving a report about the city's investment portfolio, which includes the $70 million PG&E settlement money.

Mr, Kiely, When they cut school days, isn't the savings in that the employees who directly work withRead More and for the children are deprived of that many days of pay??? Do the principals also lose 5 days pay? Does Hutt lose 5 days pay? Do the board members lose 5 days worth of their stipend. In other words, is the bad tasting medicine swallowed by everyone in the school district in a sincere effort to cure the ills of this school district Or is it just the teachers and the classified workers who are called upon to attempt a restoral of good health, the direct result of poor management and less than admirable leadership that has brought about ths crisis??

Mr, Kiely, Somewhere I heard that they were considering stopping contracting out PE at a largeRead More savings. Was that discussed last week? I was not abe to stay the entire evening. I question why they would have contracted for PE at the elementary level. Isn't that what recess and the balance of lunch time was for? Physical activity??? Thank you in advance for your always knowledgeable answer to my questions.

District cutting school days? The District is showing an agreement with the union which will saveRead More $200K. It doesn't show where the money is coming from, but the amount makes it look like they are cutting 5 days from the calendar. Dr. Hutt said at the last meeting that the length of the school year was still under negotiation.
