Subject:Please Support Angels Stadium Development Plan!
I am writing this letter in support of the Angel Stadium Development Plan coming before the City Council
tonight.
This deal is not only a good one for the Angels, but it’s an even bigger win for Anaheim. The city will no longer
be on the hook to pay for stadium renovations or for the construction of a brand new stadium. This
development with amplify what Anaheim has to offer its residents, baseball fans, and tourists, and fulfill the
vision for the Platinum Triangle.
This will be the new place to shop, eat, drink, and of course watch the Angels play, along with many other
entertainment and sporting activities. The benefits for our community include over 12 acres of parks and open
space, along with 5,175 new housing units which will be built, including integrated affordable housing which
Anaheim desperately needs.
The development also means revenue generated for the city in the form of property taxes, sales taxes, hotel
bed taxes, all of which will add up to $7 billion in total regional economic output every year, and $1.2 billion into
Anaheim’s general fund. Add to that over 30,000 jobs during construction, many of which will be good paying,
highly skilled building trades jobs, as well as 45,000 other permanent jobs post-construction, and the economic
development case for this proposed plan is undeniable.
And of course, this plan means the Angels will be staying in Anaheim until 2050, at least.
.
I urge you to support this deal to support our community and it’s residents
Thank you,
Fred
