More than double the number of Universal City residents voted to approve a $30 million bond—the city’s largest bond in its history—than those who voted against it, according to early-voting totals for the Nov. 8 election.
The Bexar County Elections Department reported 2,783 residents, or 69.13%, voted for the bond compared to 1,243 residents, or 30.87%, who voted against it. Universal City City Manager Kim Turner previously told Community Impact that the bond would help the city address road repairs, reconstruction and infrastructure.
City staff identified 93 streets rated fair, poor or very poor that would be eligible for bond funding to make repairs. However, which streets would be repaired has yet to be determined.
In 2010, voters passed a street-focused bond for $19.5 million, which led to the rehabilitation of 28 streets over 12 years, according to city staff.
