HIS PAST JUNE, THE HONDA CENTER

BUILDING REACHED A YOUTHFUL 15YEARS-OLD, AND IN THAT SHORT TIME FRAME,BY ENTERTAINMENT VENUE STANDARDS, HAS

MADE QUITE A NAME FOR ITSELF AS ONE OF

THE GREATEST SPORTS AND ENTERTAINMENT

VENUES IN THE COUNTRY. The arena, which at mid-year ranked third in the world

for ticket sales, has hosted major national and internationalsporting events including the 2007 Stanley Cup Finals, the2005 World Badminton Championships and the 2003 WorldGymnastics Championships.

Opening with a Barry Manilow concert in 1993, the arenahas since seen world-famous entertainers including Madonna,Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake and Janet Jackson.

Perhaps Honda Center’s greatest claim to fame is the Nation-al Hockey League’s Anaheim Ducks franchise. Emerging asthe Mighty Ducks in 1993, the team has seen major trans-formations in the way of a team name and ownership change,venue name change and amplified success; as evidenced bythe team’s first-ever Stanley Cup victory in 2007.

The arena also hosts events such as the annual John WoodenClassic, Ringling Bros. & Barnum & Bailey Circus, Champ-ions on Ice and the Harlem Globetrotters.

NAHEIM RESIDENTS DID AN OUTSTANDING

JOB CONSERVING WATER LAST SUMMER. However, the water-supply situation in Southern California

continues to worsen. So, it’s time for you to gear up to con-serve once again.

With Gov. Schwarzenegger’s drought proclamation in June,followed shortly by a Water Supply Alert from the Metro-politan Water District of Southern California, it is importantthat all Anaheim residents and business owners understandthat saving water MUST become a way of life.

Installing low-flow toilets and drip irrigation systems, pluscommon-sense water usage like simply cutting back youroutdoor watering by just one day a week, can make a hugedifference.

By doing your part, you can ensure that Anaheim contin-ues as a leader among Southern California cities in terms ofreducing water use and the high energy costs associated withits transmission and delivery.

Water is a precious resource that we can no longer take forgranted. Conserving it must become a way of life. AnaheimPublic Utilities offers a range of conservation programs andtips to help residents save water at www.anaheim.net. �

he City of Anaheim has worked diligently in re-

cent years to enhance the Anaheim experience

for residents, businesses and visitors.

This has been evident in the more than 18 capital improve-ment programs that either started construction or celebratedgrand openings in the past 18 months. These vital projectsincluded the West Anaheim Community Center and PoliceSub-Station, the Twila Reid Fire Station, the East AnaheimGymnasium and Community Center, the Downtown Ana-heim Utilities Substation, which will have a distribution cap-acity that will help the City keep pace with its growth fordecades to come, and the re-design of the Haskett Library,to mention a few. Additionally, the City has made great stridesto enhance its neighborhoods through well-planned new dev-elopments, as well as re-investment in existing areas.

With constant changes occurring throughout Anaheim, it isessential for the City to ensure the quality of its developments.Incorporating high quality amenities in new developmentprojects will result in growth that contributes to the longterm viability of the City, while strengthening existing neigh-borhoods and business districts.

Recognizing that the City needed to be a proactive partnerin the creation of quality residential neighborhoods duringthe recent economic downturn, the Anaheim City Councilapproved an economic stimulus package for new residentialconstruction. The goal of this package is to provide econom-ic incentives to promote the development of new homes inAnaheim. The program provides streamlined procedures forprocessing discretionary entitlements and building permits,allows a longer period of time to start building when neededand defers certain permit fees. The program also offers numer-ous incentives for utilizing Green Development practices.

In the new Platinum Triangle community, a blend of excit-ing residential projects with a variety of housing types, exciting

business opportunities and world-class entertainment are pro-grammed. The City is incorporating attributes that makegreat mixed-use urban neighborhoods, such as safe, attractiveand engaging streets, balanced land uses, walkable neighbor-hoods, a variety of transportation options, recreation oppor-tunities and public spaces. The design guidelines containedin the Platinum Triangle Master Land Use Plan also providelatitude in the choice of architectural styles for individual proj-ects in an effort to encourage creativity and innovation. Theseguidelines were developed in cooperation with area propertyowners and community stakeholders to ensure that best prac-tices are put in place. This approach has helped to stimulatelocal market development and positioned the Platinum Tri-angle as one of the premier up and coming residential, com-mercial and entertainment destinations. Currently, almost2,000 units within seven projects are under construction, andit is anticipated that more than 200 units will be available formove-in by year’s end. To complement this growth, the Citycontinues to work with the Orange County TransportationAuthority on the the Anaheim Regional Transportation Inter-modal Center (ARTIC) as it gains momentum in the devel-opment of public-private partnerships.

In the historic, yet vibrant Colony and Downtown areas,new development with respect for the past has taken hold.The City has worked in close partnership with the communi-ty to create the necessary framework to build on its history.These efforts have resulted in the construction of a new down-town core with residential and commercial uses that are res-pectful of the traditional urban form, as well as the historicarchitectural influences of the past. New residential neigh-borhoods, such as Colony Park, are introducing new housingproducts seamlessly into the downtown area and are servingto be a further catalyst to revitalize surrounding areas.

The area of West Anaheim is also seeing significant changesand revitalization. The new Target store, at the corner of Lin-coln Avenue and Euclid Street, held a grand opening this past

A N A H E I M’S V I B R A N T G R O W T H

T

Fall 2008 � Anaheim13

July. This store will complement the Anaheim Plaza shoppingcenter, making Euclid Street an even more dynamic shoppingdestination.

The City also looks forward to the redevelopment of the21-acre Delphi Battery site, located at Magnolia Avenue andthe I-5 Freeway, as an opportunity for new industrial build-ings in Anaheim. In close proximity, plans for the Westgateshopping center at Beach Boulevard and Lincoln Avenue con-tinue to progress. This center promises to bring a new varietyof retail and eating establishments to West Anaheim.

Further investment in the future of Anaheim can be seenin the Canyon Business Center where a recently completed“Canyon” marketing program has positioned this area of theCity to attract high-caliber jobs and development. Kaiser Per-manente has started construction on the first phase of a newmaster-planned hospital campus that upon completion willinclude 360 beds and 518,000 square feet of medical offices.The nearby Metrolink train station will soon see improve-ments that include a pedestrian undercrossing that will con-nect with the new hospital. The Crossings, a transit-orienteddevelopment including 312 condominiums and live/workunits, recently took advantage of the City’s fee deferral incen-tive program and is now under construction next to the sta-tion. The adjacent PacifiCenter is also looking to capitalizeon its proximity to the station and intensify its current mixof office and commercial uses with additional office, commer-cial and residential uses. Panattoni Development recentlyacquired the former Boeing property and is working on plansfor new development as well as the redesign and upgrade ofexisting office buildings. Their plans also include the intro-duction of new retail stores.

In addition, the City is also looking forward to the futuredevelopment of The Irvine Company’s Mountain Park pro-ject, which will introduce another beautiful master-plannedneighborhood to the Anaheim Hills community. The SpecificPlan for Mountain Park will ensure the quality of a wide range

of housing types, as well as a school, parks, trails and a firestation, to the eastern edge of our City.

The transformation of the Anaheim Resort into a world-class tourist destination has recently taken great leaps forwardwith the grand opening of the Anaheim GardenWalk, anopen-air retail, dining and entertainment center. The announc-ed plan by Disney to invest more than $1 billion in improve-ments and expansion to its theme parks certainly helps tovalidate the desirability and potential of the Resort. These eye-popping developments are only part of the excitement in theAnaheim Resort, where Disney’s Grand Californian Hoteland Spa will expand by more than 200 hotel rooms, a time-share project by Trendwest will bring 247 units to the Resort,a 252 room boutique style hotel will add a new dimensionto the already exciting resort area and an additional 500 newhotel rooms are in the planning stages. These projects, alongwith another potential expansion to the Anaheim ConventionCenter, are raising the bar on the quality and variety of enter-tainment and accommodations available in the AnaheimResort for residents and visitors alike.

For all locations in the City, Anaheim is working to ensurethat new development is properly planned and that it willmaintain its initial quality over the long term. Architecturalpeer reviews are performed for all large-scale residentialand commercial projects to assess quality of design. Recrea-tion and open space amenities for residents are incorporatedinto developments, and larger residential projects are re-quired to have on-site property management. Once approved,City staff carefully monitors progress during constructionso that development is in compliance with all conditionsof approval.

With these current measures in place, the City is positionedto grow and evolve over time in a quality manner. Such qual-ity standards will assure that the City will be as proud ofnew neighborhoods and businesses in its exciting future asit is today. �

on-site resources including job training assistance from theCity of Anaheim’s Workforce Development, recruitment andjob fairs from the North Orange County Community CollegeDistrict, as well as finance education workshops from theNeighborhood Housing Services of Orange County and WellsFargo. This complex was specifically designed to be energy-and water-efficient. These measures help the complex andresidents by resulting in savings on future power-supply costs,relatively lower consumer rates and environmental benefitsfor decades to come. The Vineyard was the first housing proj-ect approved after the City Council adopted the AffordableHousing Strategic Plan in August 2005.

Jamboree Housing Corporation and H.O.M.E.S., Inc.commemorated its groundbreaking of Diamond ApartmentHomes in April. This multi-family development will offer 25housing units for previously homeless individuals with pri-ority for those who live or work in Anaheim. There is a 2,500-square-foot resident services center that features a case man-agement office, a teaching kitchen, a multipurpose room anda computer lab. The development will also offer mental healthsupport and specifically provides housing so families can staytogether. Jamboree’s Housing with HEART (Helping Educate,Activate and Respond Together) will offer free, non-clinical,

onsite resident services and programs that are specificallydesigned to meet the needs of residents and their families.Diamond is designed to be a GreenPoint Rated Community,which reflects Jamboree’s commitment to sustainable develop-ment. The project is set to be completed between late Dec-ember 2008 and early January 2009.

In mid-August, the City welcomed another Jamboree Hous-ing Corporation project, Monarch Pointe Apartment Homes,to its expanding community. Taking up residence on a vacantparcel, a result of the Interstate 5 expansion, Monarch Pointebrings 63 additional affordable units to Anaheim. The apart-ment complex was designed with numerous desirable ameni-ties in mind, including an expansive greenbelt, energy-efficientappliances and impressive on-site computer workstations.Like Diamond Apartment Homes, Monarch Pointe will offersimilar on-site educational services for residents of all ages.

The Hermosa Village, Vineyard, Diamond and MonarchPointe apartment projects will all serve to provide new afford-able housing opportunities for residents and future residentsof our City.

As part of their community involvement, Time Warner Cablehas provided complimentary public service announcementsto help residents become aware of upcoming communityprograms. Additionally, they have offered free airtime andmonetary contributions to promote the development of com-munity events. A great example of this donation is Time WarnerCable’s complete broadcast of the 2007 Anaheim SpooktacularHalloween Parade. They also sponsor the Anaheim Mayor’sState of the City Address, Taste of Anaheim, Anaheim YMCAGood Friday breakfast, Anaheim Mayor’s Prayer Breakfast,and the Boys and Girls Club of Anaheim.

And still, perhaps the greatest contribution comes fromTime Warner Cable employees, who together collected morethan 600 books for donation to the Boys and Girls Club ofAnaheim through an employee book drive. Time WarnerCable looks forward to continuing to play an active role in thecommunity and hopes to support such cultural centers as theMuzeo and the Musical Theatre West in the future.

Time Warner Cable:Connecting the Community

When in need of great cable service, many Anaheim res-idents turn to Time Warner Cable. Likewise, when

organizations are looking for a strong community partner,Time Warner Cable is at the top of their list.

This desire for partnership is evident in the cable company’sphilosophy: “We aren’t just building one of the largest cablenetworks in the country, we are building relationships withcustomers, educators, service providers and civic leaders.Through education and literacy programs, exclusive localprogramming, employee volunteerism and tactical response,we help meet the needs of our communities.”

One vehicle Time Warner Cable employs to promote edu-cation is through sponsorship of the Anaheim Mayor’s Tech-Scholar program, a program that provides free laptops andinternet service to high-achieving college-bound studentsin Anaheim.
