GREAT AMERICA OWNER'S DEMANDS

Before the 49ers could build a stadium in the parking lot of the Great America amusement park, park owner Cedar Fair says the team would have to meet demands outlined in a letter Friday: Control of scheduling stadium events during Great America's season: The park opens in late March and closes in October but is considering extending its season.

Compensation for lost revenue during 49ers games: The park would close during the four games that conflict with its season.

Manage parking and keep revenue for all stadium events: The stadium and much of its parking would be on city-owned land leased by Cedar Fair.

No name change for Great America Parkway: The major road that runs to the park from Highway 101 must keep its name.

Niners Launch Official Application for New Santa Clara Stadium:

.... Those towers would be slightly lower than one nearby landmark - the 224-foot high Drop Zone ride in the Great America theme park. Following opposition from Cedar Fair Entertainment Co, Great America's owner, to a stadium in the theme park's main parking lot, the 49ers are applying to build in Great America's overflow lot, slightly to the east across San Tomas Creek.

But because Cedar Fair has not yet agreed to the back-up site, the 49ers and the Ohio-based amusement park operator are continuing to negotiate. No deal appears imminent.....

Could Prudential and the coaster delay have something to do with the 49'ers?
