This weekend Irvine residents received a letter* from Irvine Planning Commissioners Anthony Kuo and Greg Smith urging support for the Great Park plan that comes before the City Council on Tuesday, November 26 at their 4pm meeting at City Hall.
Specifically, the letter tells residents to call Mayor Pro Tem Lalloway who has voted to delay the project to get the deal done. Lalloway, a Republican voted with the only two Democratic members of the Council in favor of further delays that jeopardize the $176 million in funds offered by Five Points Communities to build and operate the park, but also at least 4,000 jobs that will leave Irvine if the deal does not get signed this year.
Here is the letter: Kuo-Smith letter to Irvine Republicans
*Build the Great Park Now is a non-partisan group. Our organization is not affiliated with this letter, but we appreciate that others in the community are as engaged and supportive of building a world-class youth and adults sports venue and park.
