Spurs Arena Funding Moves Forward | San Antonio News

San Antonio’s City Council narrowly rejected putting the Spurs arena’s $489 million funding measure on the November ballot, with a 6-5 vote — meaning voters won’t directly decide on the city’s share. Mayor Ron Nirenberg supported the public vote, but council members fell short. The project can now proceed under last year’s approved financing plan, which includes $500 million from the Spurs, $489 million from the city, and $311 million from Bexar County — the latter already approved by voters in November 2023. This move clears the way for construction without another ballot measure, despite calls for greater public input.
