DESCRIPTION:+++++++++++++++++++++\nIf you cannot attend this meeting, email Berkeley 
 city council: council@cityofberkeley.info\nTell them to not offer city 
 police assistance if the UC decides to raid and clear People's Park for 
 development.  \n\nThe email for the police review commission is: 
 PRC@CityofBerkeley.info\n+++++++++++++++++++++\n\nOn March 14th, the city 
 of Berkeley is renewing the mutual aid compendium for 2017.  The Berkeley 
 police receive and request mutual aid with other police departments and 
 government agencies involved in policing.  The item pertaining to mutual 
 aid is listed on the March 14th agenda packet as item #26, titled 
 "Agreements, with Other Law Enforcement Agencies, Police Departments or 
 Private Security Organizations"\n\nThe UC Regents, the governing board of 
 the University of California system, are meeting on March 15th and 16th to 
 vote on approving a dorm to be built in People's Park.  According to 
 Executive Vice Chancellor Carol Christ, the UC is ready to start the 
 initial steps of development shortly after approval is given.  People's 
 Park could be fenced off from the public this summer, or even as soon as 
 this Spring Break.\n\nTo help save People's Park, we must demand that the 
 city of Berkeley not assist in the clearing of People's Park.  The city 
 police should not offer mutual aid in the raid of People's Park and 
 subsequent UC police actions against protesters trying to save People's 
 Park.\n\nThe UC's mess should be the UC's responsibility.  If the UC wants 
 to instigate protests over People's Park, it should not fall to the city to 
 provide personnel and resources towards the UC's unwise and selfish 
 decision.\n\nThe mutual aid agreement between the city and the UC does not 
 have to be entirely broken.  The city only needs to make an amendment that 
 they will not offer assistance in regards to raids on People's Park and 
 related protests in People's Park.  The city did not provide mutual aid in 
 regards to the Memorial Oak Grove Tree Sit protest, so there is precedence 
 for the city refusing to offer assistance against protests against the 
 UC.\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2017/03/05/18797053.php
