One mishap would result in some serious injury. Cyclists speed by at 20-plus mph, coming within a foot of hikers. Walking and hiking on the trails is like taking your life in your own hands. Mountain bikers have just about taken over the trails around Lime Ridge and associated parking at Montecito off Ygnacio Valley Road. Regarding Clayton Dewberry’s letter (“ Walnut Creek doesn’t make cyclists welcome,” Page A6, July 29), nothing could be further from the truth. Besides all that, the environment is getting smaller and smaller.

I am sure there are a lot of people like me. I am stressed out not having time to share with my family and not having time for myself to rest for the next day. Coming back home, it takes me around an hour and a half, which means I am away almost 12 hours from home and family just to work 7 1/2 hours. to 4 p.m., but due to traffic issues I need to leave before 6 a.m. Residents already have enough traffic it’s hard to get to work and home. I still hope that UC, Berkeley residents, and the city can get it together to make it a much better park than it has been up to now.īuilding housing at the Concord Naval Weapons Station site will bring much more traffic to the freeways for us. Let’s keep this park as the much-needed open space it is. In spite of the homelessness and messiness, it is a tribute to the creative, positive actions people took all those years ago. Why, over so many years, can the university still not embrace the amazing piece of work this park is? 4:Īs a “People’s Park Survivor” shot in both legs that infamous day, May 15, 1969, I don’t understand why UC needs to use this particular site, other than the chancellor’s ego. “ Clashes halt housing project,” Page A1, Aug.

I'd like to extend my thanks to them and the entire campus community. Details on that gift and the finals schedule are available under the News and Events section of theĬurrent information on hours of operation for all libraries in our system is always available hereĮxpanding the hours of our libraries requires not only generous support but also the dedicated work of library managers and other staff who, working under difficult conditions, have remained dedicated to doing all that they can to serve the faculty, students and staff of this community. You may recall that, last week, a generous donor provided funds to allow students 24-hour access to those facilities during finals. This includes more than 1,000 seatsĪvailable in Moffitt library and the Gardner Stacks. In the interim, please be aware that many of our existing library facilities are not being used at capacity and provide abundant study space through the week and weekend. This return to the standard schedule will occur no later than mid-November. We are operating under the spring 2009 schedule. We will begin by expanding the hours of at least one branch library this weekend and will continue with a phased approach of expanding library hours until With funding secured, library managers will now begin hiring and training student workers to staff the libraries during the expanded hours. I am grateful to theĭonors, the Chancellor and Provost, for their efforts. Recent events and concerns raised by students, faculty and staff served as important reminders to all of us that libraries are a critical resource for students and a vital part of this university. This decision was made in consultation with Chancellor Robert Birgeneau and Executive Vice Chancellor and Provost George Breslauer, who secured funding for the expanded service hours through gifts from parents of UC Berkeley students. I am very pleased to announce that library hours across the UC Berkeley campus will be returning to the spring 2009 schedule, the standard schedule that existed before budget cuts forced us to reduce weekend hours at most libraries within the campus's library system.
