The San Marcos City Council is set to consider further postponement of the Vision SMTX Comprehensive Plan in order to give more time for public input, could consider a reallocation of American Rescue Plan Act funds and additional funds to the contract for ARPA fund consulting firm and could consider several large purchases and contract increases. The regularly scheduled meeting is set for 6 p.m.
The council is set to discuss the possibility of the postponement of the consideration for the Vision SMTX Comprehensive Plan in order to allow the City Council Comprehensive Plan Committee to conduct public outreach and develop final recommendations for the plan. The Vision SMTX Comprehensive Plan is meant to guide long-term decision making for key components such as housing, the environment, transportation and land use.
During the previous meeting in which this was discussed on Oct. 17, the council heard many comments from the public that felt outreach was not optimal and requested postponement of the decision. The council decided during that meeting to postpone the decision until January 16, 2024 and is now requesting additional time.
