The News Scan is a summary of local and national news stories about the City of
Berkeley.
We have recently changed the News Scan format. When you click on a news headline
below, a new window will open, and you will be able to read the story on the website
where it appeared. The News Scan window will remain open so you can quickly and
easily get back to the list of print and broadcast stories.
Links to these articles represent neither an endorsement of, nor responsibility
for, the content of these articles. And while we strive to provide the correct links
on the day of publication, we do not control the non-City websites and cannot guarantee
that the links to the news agencies will work indefinitely.
If you have any questions or comments regarding this service, please contact Mary
Kay Clunies-Ross, the Public Information Officer, via email
mclunies-ross@cityofberkeley.info or telephone at (510)981-7008.
