Staff briefs council on proposed 10‑year convention management extension and related district agreement

During the conventions and sports presentation, staff recommended that the council consider a 10‑year extension of the convention management contract and a renewal for the convention‑center improvement district. Patricia Mosque Cantor said the recommendation is part of a broader strategy to remain competitive with other Texas cities and to align long‑term facility investments with contracted management.

The presentation also noted a five‑year extension related to the stadium operating agreement with the San Antonio Missions and flagged an upcoming staff briefing and master‑plan update on stadium improvements next month. Councilmembers asked for additional detail and a range of alternatives, and staff said they would supply the requested options in a follow‑up session.
