Where We Are
Main Entrance is Now on Trousdale Drive
The main entrance to Peninsula Medical Center is now on Trousdale Drive; the El Camino entrance is closed.
A Giant Step Closer
A landmark agreement was reached for the creation of the new hospital. The Peninsula Health Care District unanimously approved a new 50-year land lease that will allow Mills-Peninsula to develop a $600 million, state-of-the-art hospital to replace Peninsula Medical Center in Burlingame.
Approval Process and Timeline
The Burlingame Planning Commission and City Council cleared the way for the new hospital in 2004 with a unanimous vote by the Council to approve the Environmental Impact Report (EIR), building design, rezoning issues and a conditional use permit for the project.
The Peninsula Health Care District also unanimously approved a letter of intent that spells out terms of a new 50-year lease agreement to allow Mills-Peninsula to continue to use the publicly-owned land where Peninsula Medical Center now stands.
In August 2006, the community gave its blessing when 93 percent of Peninsula Health Care District voters approved the 50-year lease agreement.
The District includes: San Bruno, Millbrae, Burlingame, Hillsborough, portions of South San Francisco and Foster City, and most of San Mateo.
Ground was broken Nov. 1, 2006. Completion of the project is scheduled for early 2010.
