I'm not really sure why that small group of people in Santa Clara are pissed off and saying that the city is getting left holding the bag on this deal.

With the 49ers paying $30mil over 40 years for the lease, that adds up to exactly 1.2 billion dollars. I forget the exact numbers, but with the NFL and 49ers paying a couple hundred million dollars for the building of the stadium... in 40 years Santa Clara is coming out way on top.

Kind of a goofy looking stadium with the tower on the one side. Different for sure.

Santa Clara OKs final 49ers stadium deals | PressDemocrat.com

The deals include a non-relocation agreement with the football team that requires the 49ers to play its home games in Santa Clara for at least 40 years following the expected opening in 2014.

Santa Clara OKs final 49ers stadium deals, including loan increase of up to $100 million - San Jose Mercury News

The Stadium Authority inked a legal "nonrelocation agreement" with the Niners, which requires the team to play its home games in Santa Clara for at least 40 years following the expected opening in 2014. The 49ers can break free of the deal only under extreme circumstances, like if one of every five seats or parking spaces become unusable.

I really sick that the stadium had to be put down in Santa Clara, might as well change their damn name...:lm:...I just wished they could've made the Candlestick course of action work...and this move is not even comparable to the move from Kezar, at least they were in the same city...and county...

I understand why, but it still makes me sad to see this happen...:Cry:...

49ers' kick off move to Santa Clara with far-from-traditional groundbreaking - San Jose Mercury News

Without a downtown, Santa Clara is marketing the stadium area as its main "entertainment zone," hoping the field not only transforms the area during the season's eight game days but year-round, when it will host special events.

City officials hope the stadium will spark more activity in the area like new restaurants and shops. Great America, which was looking to sell before the stadium became a done deal, signed a long-term lease extension and is building a new roller-coaster. Across the street Joe Montana is the frontman for a planned luxury hotel, restaurant and bar. Separately, officials are reviving talks with a developer interested in building bars, restaurants and dancing spots near the stadium. The Hilton Hotel is considering an expansion. Pro shops and memorabilia stores are expected to pop up to join a new 49ers hall of fame and museum.

Within a block already are the 300,000-square-foot Convention Center, an 18-hole golf course, 2,800 hotel rooms, a massive soccer park, the 49ers training facility, some restaurants and creek-side trails popular with the local tech workers.
