The Brooks Development Authority (BDA), the entity in charge of revitalizing the Brooks Air Force Base area, spent a total of $18,540 over the span of three UTSA football games from the comfort of a suite — but it is for educational purposes, right? Since Brooks Air Force Base was shut down in 2011, the BDA has been tasked with revitalizing 1,308 acres of land on the Southside of San Antonio. With such a monumental mission, the news of this seemingly frivolous spending was unsettling to many.
