Berkeley council passes balanced budget {and votes for impeachment}

After cutting more than $20 million from the budget and trimming the city's workforce by 10 percent over the last four years, the Berkeley City Council unanimously approved a balanced budget Tuesday night without further reductions in city services or personnel.

. . . Finally, the council voted unanimously to place an advisory measure on the November ballot calling for the impeachment of President Bush and Vice President Cheney. Arguing for the measure was Daniel Ellsberg, the man who leaked the Pentagon Papers, who answered the inevitable only-in-Berkeley arguments by asking, "If not here, where?"

The council also proclaimed Tuesday "Cindy Sheehan Day in the city of Berkeley," in honor of the anti-war activist who moved here last spring. Said Councilwoman Betty Olds, who sponsored the proclamation, "Berkeley is a better place to live now that Cindy Sheehan lives here."
