THE DELAY...
A significant source of funding for the New Zoo project was to be provided by a bond that was to be issued by the City of San Francisco. Voters approved the bond measure in the 1996 election by a wide margin. Unfortunately, the Zoo bond measure shared the ballot with the contraversial 49er's Stadium Bond. The Stadium Bond measure was confronted by a variety of legal challenges. Thsi had the effect of putting the Zoo Bond on hold until the legal challenges were resolved. More information on the Bond election dispute can be found here:
