Government Watch

• On a bipartisan 24-9 vote, the California Senate approved legislation to combat a deadly disease that affects children and the elderly. Senate Bill 533, authored by state Sen. Leland Yee, D-San Francisco/San Mateo, would add Invasive Pneumococcal Disease immunization to the list of required vaccinations for childcare facilities entry requirements. Globally, as many as a million children die of pneumococcal infections each year.

City government

• The Burlingame Planning Commission will revisit plans to remodel 1351 Howard Ave., previously Brothers Deli, for Comerica Bank. The commission previously referred plans to a design review consultant. Plans for converting the deli into a Comerica Bank were approved a year ago. The deli moved to Millbrae.

At the same meeting, the commission will discuss a conditional use permit to turn an office space into an indoor badminton facility at 1611 Adrian Road. Currently QFCO, Inc. uses the property for its food warehouse business. Plans suggest downsizing the food company and creating a secondary space in the building. The space would be used for the Bay Badminton Center, Inc. offering 16 indoor courts, a lounge, a children’s play zone, stretching zone and rest rooms.

The commission meets 7 p.m. Monday, June 11 at City Hall, 501 Primrose Road, Burlingame.

Education

• Capuchino High School in San Bruno has a new leader, Katya Villalobos. Villalobos was named principal by the San Mateo Union High School District Board of Trustees Thursday to fill the position left vacant by exiting principal Edward Marquez.

Villalobos holds degrees from the University of California at Los Angeles, Notre Dame de Namur University and National University.

• The San Mateo Union High School District called three special closed session meetings last week to discuss appointing a new superintendent to replace Sam Johnson, who retires at the end of the month.
