The city owns it, but Cedar Fair still has the lease.

If they can't get funding in Silicon Valley they couldn't get it in SF. There is alot more money down there for sponsorships etc... than anywhere else in the bay area.
Before the vote Cedar Fair sued the Santa Clara EIR. However, the judge threw the suit out a few weeks before the vote. So they are pretty much forced to go along with the plan.
