Centro pushes sprucier HemisFair Plaza plan
Centro 21 backs a four phase revamp of HemisFair Plaza to boost visitor draw and link to downtown. Councilman Henry Cisneros says $400000 in federal funds will start upgrades near the plaza gate serving the National University of Mexico and UTSA evening courses. The group seeks a managed program, landscaped walkways, a parking garage, and a galleria to replace the Gotind Food Cluster with tourist shops. A possible link from the plaza to La Villita or Central Park North Star malls may ease traffic.

Shadowed Debate as Cockrell Attacks Montrey in San Antonio
Mayor Lila Cockrell faces an absent John Montrey in a campaign debate staged on the steps of city hall. She assails his plans for a costly sports complex and his use of a rival’s mailer while touting her own experience and the city’s budgets.
Monfrey Accuses Cockrell of Stage-show Debate at City Hall
San Antonio challenger John Monfrey labelled Mayor Lilie Cockrells stepside debate appearance a publicity stunt. He claimed to have spent about 80 000 to 90 000 on his campaign and argued she misstates sports complex figures while noting electioneering near city hall during absentee voting. He outlined a sports complex plan with university firm studies and private funding options, and said the city may seek private financing depending on the study results. He stated the Spurs arena commitment remains at risk but a 14 000 seat arena would be pursued. He emphasized his personal money behind the proposal and the need for action over debate.
