Community Development Agency <br />santa-ana.org/cd <br />Item # 16 <br />City of Santa Ana <br />20 Civic Center Plaza, Santa Ana, CA 92701 <br /> Staff Report <br />September 7, 2021 <br />TOPIC: Willowick Golf Course Update <br />AGENDA TITLE: <br />Willowick Golf Course Update <br />RECOMMENDED ACTION <br />Receive and file the Willowick Golf Course update. <br />DISCUSSION <br />Background <br />Willowick Golf Course is a 101.5-acre property located at 3017 W 5th Street, owned by <br />the City of Garden Grove and located in the jurisdictional boundaries of Santa Ana. The <br />property is located in the Santa Anita neighborhood, adjacent to the Santa Ana River on <br />the east and the Pacific Electric Right-of-Way on the north. It is in close proximity to the <br />Romero Cruz Academy, Spurgeon Park, Cesar Chavez Campesino Park, and abuts <br />Garden Grove's Buena Clinton neighborhood and the Willowick Royal Mobile Home Park. <br />On December 4, 2017, the Cities of Santa Ana and Garden Grove held a Joint Study <br />Session to discuss the potential reuse of the Willowick Golf Course (“Property”). Both City <br />Councils directed staff to undertake further due diligence in the areas of visioning and <br />economic analysis of the Property. Subsequently, the Cities retained independent <br />consultants to help create a vision of future development and to work with the community <br />to determine both the community needs and conduct a general market assessment. <br />The Cities hosted four workshops to help develop a Vision Plan for the redevelopment of <br />the Property. This process explored conceptual land use options formed by community <br />and stakeholder collaboration and input facilitated by SWA, the consultant for the <br />visioning of the Property. Initial feedback gathered from community workshops envisioned <br />several desired community benefits that included, but was not limited to, the following: <br />affordable housing, open space, community gathering space, cultural arts facilities, <br />neighborhood retail, and connectivity to transit. <br />On January 29, 2019, the Cities of Santa Ana and Garden Grove held their second Joint <br />Study Session to receive an update from the visioning and economic consultants and <br />approved the City of Garden Grove’s development and release of a Request for <br />Proposals (RFP) to solicit a master developer for the reuse of the Property.
