Anaheim Planning Commission

* STORAGE DISPUTE: The commission will consider a proposal to build a 74,593-square-foot self-storage yard on three acres of a former landfill known as “Sinkin’ Lincoln.”

The project, on West Lincoln Avenue at Beach Boulevard, has sparked opposition from the West Anaheim Neighborhood Development Council, which contends the 20-acre site should be better utilized.

The city’s planning staff is recommending denial since the proposed project would reduce the likelihood that the entire lot, which has contamination problems, would be developed.

* When: Today, 1:30 p.m.

* Where: City Hall, 200 S. Anaheim Blvd.

* Information: (714) 765-5139

Cypress City Council

* LINCOLN PROJECT: It has been decades in the making and is described as one of the city’s “jewel” projects to attract business and residents. Now it needs a name. The City Council will consider a list of 10 proposed names for the $6.5-million project to revitalize Lincoln Avenue. The list initially held 37 ideas from residents and city staff members.

* When: Today, 7 p.m.

* Where: Council chambers, 5275 Orange Ave.

Garden Grove City Council

* HARBOR HOTELS: Agreements with developers of three major hotels--an 18-story Embassy Suites, a six-story Hilton Garden Inn and a seven-story Hampton Inn and Suites--are expected to be approved by the City Council and Redevelopment Agency.

If approved, the three hotels will join three others approved for construction on Harbor Boulevard.

Developers have sought out Garden Grove’s stretch of Harbor Boulevard in an effort to cater to an expected surge in tourism from the planned Disney expansion.

Orange City Council

* HISTORIC TAX CUT: Property owners who preserve historic buildings could earn a property tax cut if the City Council adopts the state’s Mills Act.

The 1972 act allows cities to lower the property tax bills in an effort to encourage historic preservation. The savings can be used to restore the building or to maintain it. Only properties on historic registries are eligible. But with the mile-square Old Towne now on the National Register of Historic Places, hundreds of homes and businesses could qualify.

* When: Tuesday, 4:30 p.m. regular meeting; 7 p.m. public hearing on Mills Act.

* Where: Civic Center, 300 E. Chapman Ave.

* Information: (714) 744-5500
