The City Council on Tuesday reversed a December decision that banned Anaheim staff from participating in Orange County’s proposed light-rail project. On Dec. 8, the council voted to ask transportation officials to put off action on the light-rail project pending further study. The council’s vote also prohibited city staff from spending any more time or money related to the project. Gary Johnson, director of public works, and John Lower, traffic and transportation manager, testified that the directive would prohibit Anaheim from partaking in studies that could affect the city in the future. The council reversed its decision 4 to 1, with Councilman Tom Tait dissenting.
