[Supv. Antonovich] – The final entitlements for Disney’s new production studios at its Placerita Canyon movie ranch in the Santa Clarita Valley were approved today, announced Supervisor Michael D. Antonovich.
The 44-acre studio project is expected to generate more than 3,150 jobs during construction, 2,850 full- and part-time jobs after completion and $533 million in annual economic activity throughout Los Angeles County.
Situated on a portion of Disney’s 890-acre Golden Oak Ranch property, the project will include indoor filming studio facilities, sound stages and supporting facilities.
The project’s design will complement the area’s rural and agricultural setting, maintain Placerita Canyon vistas and protect more than 800 acres of natural backdrop areas.
