ANAHEIM, Calif.—The mayors of Anaheim, Buena Park, and Garden Grove held a press conference on Sept. 16 urging California Gov. Gavin Newsom to allow the safe reopening of theme parks within Orange County.
Anaheim Mayor Harry Sidhu, Buena Park Mayor Fred Smith, and Garden Grove Mayor Steve Jones said the closure of the theme parks has caused economic destruction to their cities and the county as a whole. The parks have been closed since March 17 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
