Houston arena dispute sparks boycott threat over minority contracts
Black and Hispanic leaders warn of an economic boycott against Houston Rockets owner Leslie Alexander if minority businesses do not share in arena concession profits. A lawsuit seeks to enforce a prior agreement to share arena profits, with a five day restraining order blocking new concession contracts without court approval. A court-ordered mediation is planned, examining a deal struck before the November 2000 election. Harris County Houston Sports Authority and Hunt Construction Group oversee the process, while minority firms have already won substantial contract portions.
