the character of the industrial development by the Santa Fe in the �
area of the Central Manufacturing District, principally the area
formerly known as Vail Field, adjacent to the Cheli Air Force Depot,
and believes that a similar development of the Cheli Air Force Depot '
property would be of great benefit to the people residing in the
Southeast Area of Los Angeles County, including the community of the ;
City oP Lynwood, because this would provide many additional jobs for
the people in th3s area, �

lation making it possible to return the Cheli Air Force Depot property
