They did so, as many governments do, by issuing bonds, which function like a loan. Now they\u2019re gearing up to refinance those bonds.<\/p>\n<p>When leaders greenlit the project in 2018, they expected to spend roughly $870 million to pay back the bonds plus interest, according to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/voiceofsandiego.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/CV-Bayfront-DDA-4.24.18.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">city and port documents<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/voiceofsandiego.org\/2026\/09\/02\/chula-vistas-gaylord-hotel-may-cost-more-than-expected\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/timesofsandiego.com\/politics\/2026\/09\/02\/congress-peters-carbon-removal-climate-change\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Peters wants the feds to build a large-scale carbon removal system.
