Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in San Antonio public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
FY 2027 Budget and 2027-2032 Bond Program Infrastructure Priorities
The council was set to receive a briefing and vote on a resolution for the next bond program — about $617 million in total investment including streets, drainage, parks, facilities and housing. Earlier discussion flagged that anything above roughly $442 million could require a property tax increase, and a proposed stormwater fee increase of roughly $0.25-0.26 per month would fund drainage projects.
Downtown mobility and parking study
The Walker Consultants study found downtown parking supply is generally adequate — about 30,000 publicly available spaces — so no new parking garage is recommended at the Alamodome Lot A. Instead, recommendations focus on wayfinding, parking discovery technology, and shifting trips to transit and ride share.
Silver Line Station Area Plan & Multimodal Corridor Studies
Planners are mapping out how transit stations and major corridors like Marbach, Harry Wurzbach, and West Avenue can be made safer and more accessible for everyone.
Citywide Street Maintenance and Mastic Sealer Procurement
San Antonio is planning a $796,825 street maintenance project to apply slurry seals, striping, and pavement markings across local roadways. This work aims to extend the lifespan of neighborhood streets and improve traffic safety.
