Honorable Mayor Aitken and City Councilmembers:
I’m writing to express my support for DisneylandForward and to
encourage Anaheim’sCity Council to certify the Draft Subsequent
1
Environmental Impact Report (DSEIR) and approve the
DisneylandForward Project.
DisneylandForward will pave the way for Disney to meaningfully invest
for decades, and to create thousands of jobs for local residents and
infuse the City’sgeneral fund with millions in additional tax revenue
every year. With DisneylandForward, Disney isproposing to build only
on land already owned or controlled by Disney. Disney isnot asking
for taxpayer subsidies orasking to add any additional theme park
square footage or hotel rooms beyond what the City already has
approved. Based on my review, Disney isjust asking to spread the
previously approved square footage and hotel rooms around Disney
properties ina way that makes sense for today’smarket demand.
The Draft SEIR reviews the key components under the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), including traffic, noise, aesthetics
lighting), air quality and cumulative impacts among others. After an
exhaustive study by third-party independent experts, itisclear that
after many years of planning, review and analysis, itistime to certify
the EIR and approve the DisneylandForward Project.
Sincerely,
Mike & Amber Boster
