Mandamus sought to force bond approval in San Antonio
Mayor says mandamus action will target Attorney General Allred to approve 1.101 million dollars in bonds for the Bag Antonio project. After a second refusal, the move aims to precede a 812 bill validating the bonds, with a probe into selling the bonds to another firm. City employees face large cuts as departments, health and parks shrink while budgets are reviewed.
