Anaheim is a city in Orange County, California, located 28 miles
southeast of Los Angeles. As of 2006, the city population was 342,410,[1]
making it the tenth-largest city in California[1] and 56th-largest in the
United States. Anaheim is the second most populous city in Orange
County (behind Santa Ana) but largest in terms of land area, and it is known
for its theme parks, sports teams, and convention center.
Founded by fifty German families in 1857 and incorporated on February 10,
1870, Anaheim developed into an industrial center, producing
electronics, aircraft parts, and canned fruit. It is the site of the
Disneyland Resort, a world-famous grouping of theme parks and hotels which
opened in 1955, Angel Stadium, Honda Center, and Anaheim Convention
Center, the largest convention center on the American West Coast and the
Anaheim Visitor Center is adjacent to the Convention Center. Its name is
a blend of "Ana", after the nearby Santa Ana River, and "heim", a common
Upper German place name compound originally meaning "home".
Anaheim's city limits stretch from Los Alamitos in the West to the San
Bernardino County and Riverside County lines in the East, and encompass a
diverse collection of neighborhoods and communities. Anaheim Hills is
a master-planned community that resembles South Orange County more than the
county's northern cities. West Anaheim is notable for its more mature
neighborhoods dating from the 1950s, which comprise part of the continuous
suburban sprawl extending from Los Angeles. The Anaheim Resort, a
commercial district, includes Disneyland and the neighboring hotel and
retail complexes. The Platinum Triangle, a neo-urban redevelopment district
surrounding Angel Stadium, will soon be populated with mixed-use streets and
high-rises. Finally, the Canyon is an industrial district north of the
Riverside Freeway and east of the Orange Freeway.
Anaheim was founded in 1857 by grape farmers and wine makers from
Franconia in Bavaria. The colony was situated on 1,165 acres.
Anaheim in 1879Settlers voted to call the community Annaheim, meaning
"Anna's Home" in German. The name later was changed slightly, to Anaheim.
To the Spanish speaking neighbors, the settlement was known as Campo Alemán
(Spanish for German Camp). The grape industry was destroyed in the 1880s by
an insect pest. Other crops - walnuts, lemons, and of course
Anaheim in 1922oranges soon filled the void.
In the 1920s, the Ku Klux Klan, at the height of its influence and
popularity, decided to make Anaheim a model Klan city. In 1924, the
Klan secretly managed to get four of its members elected to the five-member
Board of Trustees. Nine of the ten members of the police force were also
Klansmen. The four Klan trustees served for nearly a year, until they were
publicly exposed, and voted out in a recall election in which 95% of the
population participated.[2]
The Disneyland theme park was constructed in Anaheim from July 16,
1954 to July 17, 1955 and has since become Anaheim's largest tourist
attraction. The location was formerly 160 acres of orange and walnut trees,
some of which remain inside Disneyland. In 2001, Disney's California
Adventure Park was opened to the public, being the most expansive project in
the theme park's history.
In the late 20th century, Anaheim grew rapidly in population. Today,
Anaheim has a diverse racial and ethnic composition.

[edit] Law and government
[edit] City government
Under its city charter, Anaheim operates under a council-manager
government. Legislative authority is vested in a city council of five
nonpartisan members, who hire a professional city manager to oversee
day-to-day operations. The mayor serves as the presiding officer of the city
council in a first among equals role. All council seats are elected at
large. Voters elect the mayor and four other members of the city council to
serve four-year staggered terms. Elections for two council seats are held in
years divisible by four while elections for the mayor and the two other
council seats are held during the intervening even-numbered years. Under the
city's term limits, an individual may serve a maximum of two terms as a city
council member and two terms as the mayor.

[edit] Court battle against the Angels
Main article: City of Anaheim v. Angels Baseball LP
Angel Stadium of Anaheim in 2003.On January 3, 2005 Angels Baseball,
LP, the ownership group for the Anaheim Angels, announced that it
would change the name of the club to the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim.Arturo
Moreno believed Team spokesmen pointed out that from its inception, the
Angels had been granted territorial rights by Major League Baseball to the
counties of Los Angeles, Ventura, Riverside, and San Bernardino in addition
to Orange County. New owner the new name would help him market the team to
the entire Southern California region rather than just Orange County. The
"of Anaheim" was included in the official name to comply with a
provision of the team's lease at Angel Stadium which requires that "Anaheim
be included" in the team's name.
Mayor Curt Pringle and other city officials countered that the name change
violated the spirit of the lease clause, even if it were in technical
compliance. They argued that a name change was a major bargaining chip in
negotiations between the city and Disney Baseball Enterprises, Inc., then
the ownership group for the Angels. They further argued that the city would
never have agreed to the new lease without the name change, because the new
lease required that the city partially fund the stadium's renovation but
provided very little revenue for the city. Anaheim sued Angels
Baseball, LP in Orange County Superior Court, and a jury trial was completed
in early January 2006, resulting in a victory for the Los Angeles Angels of
Anaheim franchise.
The case is still ongoing and is currently with the California Court of
Appeal.
