To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Berkeley, which is a residential suburban city of 50,000 in a metropolitan area of a million people about San Francisco, is also the seat of the University of California. It corresponds somewhat in setting to Montclair, New Jersey, and the other suburban towns forty minutes from New York, though more densely built up. When, in the fall of 1915, the Berkeley Civic Art Com- mission came to study zoning as the first step to city plan- ning, we decided that the Los Angeles ordinance did not adequat...ely protect that largest portion of the city — the resi- dential districts — so we studied the Minneapolis and the New York ordinances particularly. But in Berkeley, ninety per cent, of the city is made up of detached single family residences. If we chose an ordinance districting the whole city at once, as in Los Angeles or New York, we foresaw that we should have to make it very general, like those ordinances, as the public in a short time could only be educated that far, and would be likely to misunderstand stiffer regulations or protections.
