The city council and the city managers offices haven't been doing any thinking about 'new manufacturing faciltities', 'medical centers', 'universities' or other uses of the available land around. What the council is doing is spending time and money on partnering with real estate developers. The two projects they spend the most time and money on are the Banning Ranch and the Orange County Fairground property. Thats the game folks. The focus of the city council mirrors the interests of those with the most influence on the city council, and that would be developers - folks that don't, and won't be living in Costa Mesa.
The problem is that the interest of the real estate developers may not coincide with the interest of the voters.
