The “DisneylandForward” proposal for the expansion of the Disneyland Resort has cleared its first major hurdle. With a significant majority, the Anaheim Planning Commission voted to forward this visionary project to the city council.

Approval by the Planning Commission

At its core, “DisneylandForward” aims to revise the existing land use agreements between the Disneyland Resort and the City of Anaheim. The proposal allows for the construction of new attractions and hotels in areas that were previously used as parking lots. An integral part of the plan is the creation of a new parking structure along I-5, ensuring that the resort maintains its full parking capacity even after redeveloping the existing parking areas. The implementation of this project would enhance the resort's attractiveness and significantly improve the visitor experience.

The City Council's approval is still pending

Before the “DisneylandForward” project can commence, approval from the Anaheim City Council is required. The vote on this critical initiative is expected within the next month. The planning commission's positive decision lays the groundwork for the next phase of the approval process, raising high expectations for the upcoming city council decision.

A Visionary Step Forward for Disneyland Resort

With the Anaheim Planning Commission's approval of “DisneylandForward,” a new chapter in the history of the Disneyland Resort is on the horizon. The upcoming decision of the city council is eagerly awaited, as it could pave the way for the realization of this project. This endeavor not only represents the continuous development and expansion of the resort, but also the deep connection and shared aspiration of Disney and the City of Anaheim for innovation and excellence.
