Shall the City-owned sports stadium at Candlestick Point be named "Candlestick Park?"

Summary:
THE WAY IT IS NOW: The City owns a sports stadium at Candlestick Point that is used primarily for professional football games. The San Francisco 49ers lease this stadium from the City. The 49ers have an agreement with the City that gives the 49ers the right to sell the name of the stadium during the term of the lease. The City shares the money received from the sale.

THE PROPOSAL: Proposition H is an ordinance that would name the stadium at Candlestick Point as "Candlestick Park." This ordinance would not apply to any privately owned stadium that might be constructed at the same location in the future.

Meaning of Voting Yes/No

If you vote "yes," you want to name the stadium at Candlestick Point as "Candlestick Park."
