Officials at UC Berkeley on Friday confirmed that a new injunction is preventing any construction work or other activity at People's Park, further delaying plans for a new housing project.
. Additionally, two officers were injured.
The release also noted that the injunction is going to increase the delay and costs of the housing project, but officials said they were"pleased the court has agreed to an expedited process." The court is also allowing the university to close and secure the construction site ahead of the expedited ruling. Officials are currently"assessing options to get that done in a safe, effective way.
"We are gratified that the Court of Appeal recognized that UC should not go forward until the court has the opportunity to review our case more fully," People's Park Historic District Advocacy Group President Harvey Smithsaid in a statement."UC took advantage of the legal system in order to destroy as much of the park as it could. We are hopeful that the court will overturn the lower court decision and lead to the restoration of the park.
Since Berkeley prohibits officers from using tear gas, it limits bringing in additional officers to help with crowd control.
