The San Francisco 49ers announced that the team has reached an agreement with the City of Santa Clara on a term sheet for a new $937 million state-of-the-art stadium that will create thousands of new jobs and generate hundreds of millions of dollars in new economic impact for the City and the region. Financing the stadium will also trigger $141 million in new funding to the Santa Clara Unified School District. The stadium will be publicly owned by a Stadium Authority, and the City of Santa Clara will retain ownership of the land used for the stadium project. The agreement must be approved by the Santa Clara City Council and a vote of the citizens of Santa Clara before the project can move forward.

Kind of saw it coming but was trying to hold out hope that they'd remain in SF. Not a done done deal yet, but done enough to have to face reality. very sad.
