Faithful appeal to reconsider school marshals
Faithful appeal to reconsider school marshals
As faith leaders formed in peacemaking, we are deeply grieved by the recent decision of the San Marcos CISD school board to institute a school marshal program which would place concealed firearms in the hands of school employees. We support the goal of keeping our children and community safe, but putting concealed guns into the hands of school personnel is not the answer. We appeal to the board to reconsider this decision, or at least to take a few more sessions to consider a wider range of options. 04/23/2023 05:00 AM

City should research all aspects of proposed SMART development
City should research all aspects of proposed SMART development
Alert! A new developer has proposed to expand the original heavy-industry- zoned SMART Terminal from about 800 acres to over 2000 acres. To get a sense of this project’s size, imagine the equivalent of 80 Outlet Malls. This project is massive and if approved will not only threaten our sacred San Marcos River, it will completely transform the small towns that it borders: Martindale, Maxwell and Reedville. Please join me and other concerned citizens in opposing expansion and Heavy Industrial Zoning of this project at this time. 04/16/2023 05:00 AM
