San Antonio is looking at a much smaller bond program or possibly raising taxes to pack more in rather than keeping projects on the back burner.

And no matter which way they go, the bond vote could also effectively put the Spurs arena project back onto the ballot, albeit in a roundabout way.

The city's five-year bond programs are typically crammed with major infrastructure projects like overhauling failed streets, drainage projects, park improvements, new greenway trails, and fire and police stations.
