Our concern is the likelihood of significant contribution to the non point source pollution flow into Spring Lake from rain water runoff over land and through the aquifer. SMGA strongly believes that the location for this annexation is one of the worst locations for development if we are truly committed to keeping our water running clear and clean in the San Marcos River. Here is the item as it is noted on the agenda for Tuesday night's city council meeting:
18. Public Hearing to receive comments for and against Ordinance 2009-30, annexing to the City an area consisting of 22.5 acres, more or less, T.J. Chambers Survey A-2, located 1 mile northwest of Post Road at Lime Kiln Road; approving a service plan for this area; including procedural provisions; and declaring an emergency.SMGA supports quality development in San Marcos, but pipes and paving in this most sensitive, flood-prone location is not quality development. If you have thoughts about the annexation you would like to share with your council members (don’t be shy) be sure to reference the item above on the agenda. You can email the mayor and council your thoughts using City_Clerk_Info@ci.san-marcos.tx.us or Mayor_Council_Info@ci.san-marcos.tx.us, but be sure to include the words “Mayor and Council, Windemere” in the subject and begin the text with “Dear Mayor and Council.”
