The Berkeley Daily Planet receieved this letter addressed to Berkeley Mayor Shirley Dean and the City Council: 

I urge you to amend Policy T–35 in the draft General Plan to both maintain the existing public parking supply and allow for an immediate parking and public transit study to accurately assess the needs of downtown community organizations, cultural facilities, businesses and all Berkeley residents for short–term parking in the downtown area.  

Please find attached a letter regarding this issue that I will be submitting to the City Clerk at tonight's public hearing. 

Thank you for your attention and support. 

Jack Gardner
