Mayor Celebrates ‘Anaheim Comeback’ as Officials Call for Further Reopenings
The tourist city of Anaheim is inching back to life thanks to loosened pandemic restrictions that will allow its theme parks to reopen next month, its mayor says.
“This is the brightest day yet in this pandemic,” Mayor Harry Sidhu said during a March 11 press conference.
“We now have a path forward for the Disneyland Resort, and Angel’s Baseball. Today, I proudly declare the Anaheim comeback.”
Sidhu’s enthusiasm was dampened by the continued closure of the Anaheim Convention Center at the Westin Anaheim Resort, and the toll the pandemic has taken on the city.
