Enmity for 49ers clouds

mayor’s financial vision

Re: “ Financial pact OK’d for Super Bowl LX ” (Page B1, Sept. 25).

I have to ask why the mayor of Santa Clara would vote against a deal that guaranteed the city would be financially reimbursed with $6.4 million for hosting the Super Bowl? Why would she and the vice mayor vote against it other than for spite?

The city is estimated to generate $100 million to $160 million in economic activity due to hosting the Super Bowl. The entire Bay Area stands to benefit financially. So, why did Mayor Gilmore and Vice Mayor Cox vote against it, other than clear dislike for the 49ers and their organization? The city receives 50% of the costs upfront by Christmas.
