Buena Park calls on Newsom to reopen Knott’s Berry Farm

Buena Park joins a growing chorus of voices calling on Newsom to reopen Knott’s Berry Farm and other California theme parks.

The six-month closure of Knott’s Berry Farm has been “devastating” for the Buena Park theme park and a “disaster” for the city that depends on the 100-year-old institution to drive spending at area hotels, restaurants and businesses, according to Buena Park mayor Fred Smith.
