Parking Advisory: Evening Football Games
Saturday, October 6 | 7:00 pm kick-off
Friday, November 2 | 6:00 pm kick-off
Please be advised that Cal has evening football games scheduled for 7pm this Saturday, October 6th, and 6pm Friday, November 2nd. Parking will be tight in the Downtown on both of these nights. Most of the arts district has scheduled events that night. We also expect our regular business at restaurants, movie theatres, etc.
Please advise your customers to carpool or take alternative transportation. Also, if you decided to drive, please note that the City will have higher event pricing ($20) at the Center and Oxford Street garages until kickoff time, to encourage space being available later for regular Downtown patrons.
Also, please note a list of downtown parking resources on our website at: Downtown Parking Resources.

On October 14th, thousands of people will walk, bike, skate, dance, and play on a car-free Shattuck Ave. from Haste to Rose at the first-ever Sunday Streets Berkeley. Volunteer and help make this wonderful event happen! All Sunday Streets volunteers will get a limited edition 2012 Sunday Streets t-shirt, a front-row seat for enjoying the event, and that warm fuzzy feeling of knowing you helped make it all possible.

Recycling is Now the Law for Alameda County Businesses and Multi-family Residential Properties
On July 1, 2012, a new ordinance took effect in Alameda County requiring businesses generating four or more cubic yards of solid waste per week and all multi-family properties with five or more units to provide adequate on-site recycling for the amount of recyclable material they produce. Contact your garbage hauler to find out if your property is affected. The following resources and support are available to help those affected comply:
- City contracted haulers can provide assistance to businesses that are starting or increasing their recycling service.
- Technical "how-to" assistance for businesses and institutions in Alameda County is also available through the StopWaste.Org Business Technical Assistance Team.
Learn more at www.RecyclingRulesAC.org.
