A Glendale special election could bring uncertainty for the ambitious VAI Resort

Glendale voters will soon get a say on one aspect of the ambitious VAI Resort.

The big picture: Labor advocacy group Worker Power collected enough signatures to force the City Council to put two measures on the ballot for the May special election in Glendale.

Those two measures pertain to the City Council's November decisions to incorporate 10 acres owned by VAI into the resort project, and to change the zoning so it can be used for corporate office space.

If voters reject Propositions 401 and 402, it would reverse the council's decisions.

Why it matters: If the council's decisions are overturned, it would create "tremendous uncertainty for the developers as to what their timeline looks like" and would likely require VAI to seek another zoning agreement from the city, Garrick Taylor, a spokesperson for the Yes for Glendale campaign, told Axios.
