Glendale : Disney to Build Test Track
- Share via
Walt Disney Imagineering on Tuesday was granted a special city permit to build an elevated test track in a hidden parking lot at its Glendale headquarters.
Byron Foote, a city planner and hearing officer, said he issued a zoning variance after Disney officials assured him that the track, to be used to develop an amusement ride, will not disturb neighbors near the firm’s complex of buildings in the Grand Central industrial area.
The track, to be 188 feet long and 47 feet wide, will reach up to 25 feet high. It will not be operated between 10 p.m. and 7 a.m. The company will have until August, 1995, to remove the structure.
