San Antonio Mayor Gina Ortiz Jones renewed her call to put the city's $489 million contribution to the new Spurs arena up for a citywide vote.

Jones said the request should come as no surprise, noting she first signaled her intention to bring the matter back to council on Aug. 21, 2025, the day the original vote was taken.

She pointed to several changes in the project since then, including the removal of a land bridge over Interstate 37 and the elimination of a planned 1,000-room hotel, as reasons to revisit the decision.
