Jeff, Mike and Pat review this week's news in the amusement industry.

This week in the Conneaut Lake saga: Land sale might proceed if conditions are met, but local business owners don't want to see the sale.
Disney and local business owners want to take the Anaheim low-income housing issue to the voters. We explain why.
The old Chippewa Lake property may be redeveloped as a public park.
A new Marvel themed park is coming to Dubai. What a great property for a huge potential market.
The Alton Towers clowns complain about noise again. Who cares? They're allegedly guilty of the same thing with a factory in another town.
