3. UPDATE ON OCTA BUS MAINTENANCE FACILITY <br /> <br />Director Ream detailed the City's past efforts in developing and marketing the Associated <br />Concrete Products site located at 4301 West MacArthur Boulevard. Subsequently, <br />Mayor Pulido addressed the Board on the acquisition of the vacant 31-acre site located in <br />the Empowerment Zone by the Orange County Transportation Authority "OCTA." <br />Economic Development Manager Nunn indicated that the site had the potential of <br />producing as many as 1,500 new jobs in the Empowerment Zone. <br /> <br />Steve Wylie, OCTA Assistant Chief Executive Officer, made a presentation on behalf of <br />OCTA explaining the reasons why the site was chosen and provided an overview of the <br />services provided. Mr. Wylie reported that currently over 1/3 of bus riders are from <br />Santa Ana and the use is growing. Several sites were evaluated prior to this purchase, but <br />OCTA chose this site because of its reasonable proximity to need. Mr. Wylie also <br />reported that approximately 500 new jobs will be created with development of the new <br />facility. <br /> <br />Directors Bracho, Cibrian, Cong, Dietz, and Martinez left the meeting. <br /> <br />Questions and discussion among the Directors, Mayor Pulido and Mr. Wylie on <br />acquisition and development of the property followed the presentations. <br /> <br />Motion by Avila, seconded by Yanez to include an item on the agenda of the next <br />Board meeting regarding OCTA's attempted purchase of the Associated Concrete <br />site, with a proposed action calling for a Congressional investigation of the <br />matter, or other action as may be appropriate, by the vote of 11-0-8-3 (Leaman, <br />Armijo and Burrier-Lund abstained). <br /> <br />COMMENTS <br /> <br />1.
