Planning Commission Tackles Creeks Again

Once again, Berkeley’s Planning Commission will look at the Creeks Ordinance this week. 

That controversial bit of legislation, ordered by the City Council to handle legal questions surrounding the city’s miles of above-ground and buried waterways, goes back before the commission again Wednesday night. 

Commissioners considered the ordinance during its last session two weeks ago but were unable to reach consensus on a final version. 

The meeting begins at 7 p.m. in the North Berkeley Senior Center, 1901 Hearst Ave. at Martin Luther King Jr. Way.
