Glendale voters will decide in a few months whether the development of the highly anticipated VAI Resort will take a crucial step forward. A coalition of local business owners, elected officials and community leaders have formed the “Yes for Glendale” campaign in support of the project, urging citizens to vote in support of Proposition 401 and 402, which will appear on the vote-by-mail-only election ballot in May.

“We’re straightforward people. We don’t have an agenda. We’re building something great,” said Grant Fisher, president and CEO of VAI Resort. He is chairing the Yes for Glendale campaign.

The two propositions on the ballot regard zoning. Proposition 401 regards changing the land use designation of a 10-acre area from “THIS” to Corporate Commerce Center. Proposition 402 is related to the revised zoning plan for VAI Resort, beginning the VAI corporate office use into the overall project. Both changes were unanimously approved by the Glendale City Council earlier this year, and a yes vote affirms those decisions by the council.
