[BerkeleyDailyPlanet] Everyone's Excited this week

[Updates from the Berkeley Daily Planet]

This week almost all of our commenters seem to be exercised about
Sacramento's attempt to force Berkeley to add 9,000 new housing units to
our already dense city.  And as a first, we actually got an actual signed
letter from an actual YIMBY, which was in the last issue since it came in
midweek.  It promptly elicited some stirring anti-YIMBY replies.  Lots of
fun reading here!  The YIMBYgram is listed first below.  Also, see
Councilmember Harrison's missive which has a useful ZOOM link you can use
tomorrow at 5.
