"Aircraft should cross ... The San Mateo Bridge at or above 1900."

So which is it, recommended or required? And from whence does the recommendation/requirement derive?
Good question. As a native English speaker and being fluent in 2 languages, the text has me confused.

As a former pilot, because I flew smaller aircraft I was always turned left base to final inside the bridge whenever VMC prevailed.

Nevertheless, has it not been established that they crossed the bridge at 2250?
