The Spurs are finally paying back San Antonio $2.6 million — half of a $5 million promise made in 2015 after the city and county invested to lure an MLS team, which ultimately landed in Austin. The county waived its $2.5 million share, leaving the city to receive the full amount — though most will fund Toyota Field renovations instead of helping close the city’s $158 million budget gap. Mayor Gina Ortiz Jones, who pushed for repayment for seven months, admits it’s good news for residents but laments the funds aren’t going into the general fund where they could’ve made a bigger impact.
