would develop the southeast corner which was approved before incorporation
by the County. He introduced Nelson Weaver from Coldwell Banker.

small companies, but not to larger companies. He pointed out that there
were other competing areas for office and professional centers such as
Mountain Avenue in Upland, the airport area, and the intersection at Foot-
hill and Haven. These areas are more apt to capture the interest of larger
companies.
