Banks Seek Higher Interest on City Loans for Expenses
San Antonio faces higher borrowing costs as the Alamo National Banks bid 6 percent on loans and 5 percent on deposits, with last year’s rates at 12 percent borrowing and 3.01 percent on deposits. Mayor Bell proposes deferring action pending better terms while bids restrict sinking funds to maturity. The report also notes skip stop streetcar rules, park facility bids, and budget allocations for street work and city offices.
