Subject:Angels Stadium Development Project Disposition Agreement. Item #7
The City of Anaheim City Council
September 29 th 2020
Item: #7
Public Comments Section
Good evening Mayor and members of the City Council,
My name is Roy Afusia writing as the Business Representative on behalf of Sprinkler Fitters UA Local 709
urging support for the approval of a Zoning Code Amendment and Disposition and Development Agreement
(DDA) for the development of the Stadium District Sub-Area A Project (Angel Stadium Property).
This project will provide for Thousands of high skilled, middle class construction career opportunities for hard
working men and women in Anaheim and the region. It will also provide veteran hire priorities allowing them
to be rewarded for their service by earning a living wage and benefits.
With a Community Workforce Agreement these goals will be achieved with the Los Angeles/Orange County
Building and Construction Trades Council.
The project will also provide for increased Housing, including 15% of affordable units. Furthermore, it also will
provide the City with badly needed Park and Open Space for the local residents.
This project will also provide commercial space for retailers, restaurants, and hotels, which shall provide
revenue that will feed into the region’s economy including revenue for the City’s General Fund.
Once again, we urge the City Council to approve this Historic Project.
Thank you for your hard work and service.
Sincerely,
Roy C. Afusia
Business Representative
