Disney-ABC Television Group today told L.A. County that it will seek approval for a 56-acre production facility - including a dozen soundstages - on Disney's Golden Oak Ranch in the Santa Clarita Valley. Disney says it will create 2,854 full- and part-time jobs. More in The Signal.

Media note: I see former Daily News City Hall reporter Brandon Lowrey is now city editor of The Signal, the longtime daily paper in Santa Clarita.
