The City of San Marcos is moving ahead with one of its priority parks and open space projects just in time for the new year.
On Tuesday, San Marcos City Council will consider approval of an Interlocal Agreement with Hays County, authorizing the city to use $2 million in parks bond funds toward the purchase of real property and preliminary work associated with the Purgatory Creek Improvements Project.
Resolution 2023-01R states the Phase 1 Area (Purgatory Creek from the San Marcos River to Johnson Avenue), funding will be used to acquire easements and right-of-ways identified for improvements including flood mitigation and multi-use trails. For the Phase 2 Area (Purgatory Creek from Johnson Avenue to Hunter Road), the acquired easements will be used for multi-use trails only.
