Mayor Gina Ortiz Jones is making a bold move to put San Antonio’s $489 million Spurs arena contribution to a citywide vote — a surprise reversal that could reshape how residents weigh in on major infrastructure spending. With the August 17th ballot deadline looming, she’s holding three community listening sessions to gather public input and needs five council votes to make it happen. The plan involves issuing bonds repaid through property taxes and development rents. Meanwhile, Spurs CEO R.C. Buford argues a vote isn’t necessary, urging unity to keep the project moving forward — putting pressure on residents and officials to decide fast.
