Councilmembers may be ready to back away from resolutions that berkeley has become famous for. Political causes that go far beyond city limits. Our allen martin has that story. Reporter remember in 86 the Nuclear Free Zone vote . Thats one example. Chris worthington was elected to the Berkeley City Council in 1996. Since then, he has put countless items on the city agenda. Now the mayor has made it so that every councilmember has to count his cause. They only get their top 5. Reporter the impression might be in berkeley every corner has a cause. And possibly no one embraces that more than councilman chris worthington. I think berkeley is a hotbed of ideas. Reporter he is well known for using a score of interns and Community Meetings to bring ideas to the council. Loose year about 10 last year about 100 made it on the agenda. Critics say many items are beyond the scope of the Berkeley City Councils authority. Things such as supporting dairy workers in washington and opposing the keystone oil pipeline. But on tuesday, the mayor and vice mayor submitted a proposal saying, enough city staff is overloaded and councilmembers need to prioritize. They can bring anything that they want. But just like in any household, you set priorities with what you do with your budget and your staff time or your time, thats what this is about. Some people think the mayor is trying to embarrass me by showing how many hundreds of things that i have referred. But to me, i see that as im doing my job. Reporter but on tuesday, when worthington stepped out of the council chambers, the rest of the Council Voted 80 to require councilmembers to pick their top five agenda items. But heres the twist. Worthington says if he had been given the chance, he would have voted for the idea. I would have voted yes because the item does not stop any councilmember from putting new referrals on the agenda. It says amongst the ones that you have already done, you get to prioritize five that will get speedy attention. Reporter we wanted to talk to berkeley mayor tom bates today. He was on a plane going to d. C. Worthington says he is proud of the fact that some of the ideas he has championed over the years has gotten national attention. There are local issues as well . Hyperlocal. He says the best ideas come from his interns sometimes. Specifically, one came up with an idea for permitted Street Parking one side of the street is permit j the other side k and thats the dividing line. Used to be you could only park on your side of the street or would you get a ticket it. The interns idea,ish eye a permit that makes it issue a permit that makes it legal for residents to park on any side and no ticket. Thank you.

As da lin shows us t have any weve learned the bart officer who was accidentally shot by a colleague was wearing a bulletproof vest. As da lin shows us, wearing that vest doesnt have any guarantees. Reporter yeah, no guarantees, not even a bulletproof vest. And he was wearing one. But the autopsy report shows that one single shot to the chest killed Sergeant Tom Smith. The Sheriffs Department is saying that he was struck in an area that was not protected, not covered by the vest. I have a similar vest right here. And there are a few areas not covered when it comes to the upper body area. You have the side here right beneath the armpit. You also have the collar area. Depending on the entry of that bullet if its from high to low it can hit from the neck down to the chest. Firearms experts say the autopsy information indicates Sergeant Tom Smith was either shot from the front or the side. Usually, a frontal entry would indicate misidentification. In other words, you come around a corner i misidentify you and shoot you in the front. Reporter heres a bulletproof vest for demonstration. Former bart Police Officer don cameron says a side entry typically means an accident tal discharge and friendly fire shooting. The Sheriffs Department wouldnt give the location of the entry point, only that the bullet ended in the chest. A brings stick vest does not a ballistic vest does not afford 100 coverage on the body. There are spaces in there that can allow a bullet to go through. Reporter a sacramento attorney is representing bart officer michael maes who shot sergeant smith. The veteran officer as seen in this bart promotional video, the attorney would not say why or how the shooting happened, only that officer maes is saddened by the tragedy.

The question now is going to have to be, how do you change what happened so it doesnt happen again . Reporter the Alameda CountySheriffs Department said its going to take them weeks to conclude this investigation. So it will be a while before we find out what and how this shooting happened.

Those campgrounds will start taking reservations on march 15. All right. Paul deanno now is in the Berkeley Hills talking about fire danger and the high temperatures for next week. Hi, paul.
