ANAHEIM CITY HALL, ANAHEIM REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY, APRIL 7, 1998 Lisa Stipkovich, Executive Director of Community Development. She explained there is a train stop in the area, there is a tremendous amount of car pooling as well as a Metrolink stop. Parking should be sufficient. Chairman Daly. It appears that the demand for space in the Anaheim Canyon Business Center is strong. They need to put the land that formerly housed Rockwell, now Boeing, to good use. At one time, close to 25,000 people were employed on this one site which is now down to about 4,000. It is important to look for other users especially with good paying jobs which many of these jobs will be. End of Consent Calendar. MOTIONS CARRIED. (Agency Member Tait abstained on Item 2.)
