San Antonio’s facing a major budget overhaul with over 140 proposed fee hikes—from Alamodome parking to library book replacements—aimed at closing a $99 million deficit over two years. City Manager Erik Walsh explains these adjustments aren’t about profit, but aligning fees with rising costs like labor and equipment. Expect steeper EMS bills ($1,700), small trash collection surcharges, and new fees for short-term rentals, park pavilions, sports fields, and even Alamodome tickets. A 3% credit card fee may also apply. These changes, part of the FY2027 budget, await council approval on Sept. 17—with public meetings in August to gather input.
