Are the names of Southern CA cities named on the signpost in Beauty And The Beast?

[DodgerGirl]

I was watching Beauty And The Beast and in the scene when Maurice gets lost on the way to the fair he sees a signpost that seems to say Anaheim Valencia and Burbank but it's hard to read and i'm wondering if that's an Easter egg that's discovered in Beauty And The Beast? Did Disney want to honor their favorite cities?

Yes, they are, it's confirmed on the commentary track on the DVD by the director.
And I think it's not to honor the cities, it's just a joke among animators do things like this.
