The City of Anaheim will purchase the Covered Wagon Wheel Motel on South Beach Boulevard for $6.6 million—a low price compared with other purchases—as a part of the “Rebuild Beach” program started earlier this year.
“We’ve been working on this a long time,” Mayor Pro Tem Trevor O’Neil told the city council on Sept. 13. “This acquisition is really the next big step towards our goal of rebuilding Beach, helping to reduce crime, clean up the area … I’m very excited for this.”
