IRVINE, CA—Orange County and the City of Irvine appear to be ready to square off over a proposal to develop 100 county-owned acres just south of the Great Park.
The county hopes to improve the property through the addition of multifamily, hotel and retail developments, but the city says that plan represents a land grab that will cause traffic congestion and interfere with future development. This according to a report by the Orange County Register.
County officials are defending the development initiative, and say they would like to start a public discussion by releasing draft plans for it.
