Other items for public input include improvements to Freeman Coliseum and San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo Facilities
SAN ANTONIO — Anyone living in Bexar County can give public input in Commissioner’s Court Tuesday on the future of Freeman Coliseum, the Frost Bank Center, and a potential new Spurs arena.
This is first county wide discussion since the Spurs announced they’d invest $1 billion for a new stadium.
The Bexar County Commissioners want to know if you want your tax dollars to go to these developments or if they need to look at other funding options.
If there is public support, the Commissioner’s Court would call for a venue tax election in November.
Venue taxes are made through hotels and tourism sales, and it would go towards improvements on the Freeman Coliseum, Frost Bank Center, and San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo facilities.
The rest would help make a new multipurpose arena for the Spurs.
The maximum Bexar County can give to these projects is $450 million dollars.
In March, County Commissioner Grant Moody says they need to make a decision if this will go on the ballot 90 days before the November 4 election.
To give input you can go to the Bexar County Courthouse Tuesday at 11 a.m.
