San Mateo County has informed UAPD that due to a $31 million dollar budget gap for the next fiscal year, they are not planning to renew their lease at Burlingame Long Term Care Center when it expires in June 2013. However, they do plan to open 32 additional nursing beds on the SMMC campus. UAPD is setting up a meet and confer with the County to discuss the impact of these changes on UAPD members. While workers in other classifications may face layoffs, the effects on doctors are expected to be minimal. UAPD will issue an update when more information is available.
