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.

For a decade I have lived east of I-35 in San Marcos. Recently, for health reasons, I have taken to riding a bicycle. At its best, bicycling can be a fun and convenient way to get around. However, trying to get anywhere from my neighborhood via bicycle has proved frustrating and dangerous.
Roughly 15 years after derricks at the Spindletop oil field first rained black gold in southeast Texas at the turn of the 20th century, a different spigot began flowing: a fire hose of taxpayer dollars into the coffers of oil companies.

Late Thursday (April 6) afternoon, there was extensive damage to the utility poles and lines in the 700 block of Belvin St. The damage appeared to have been caused by a very large truck driving down the street. There was one utility pole leaning at about a 45 degree angle out toward the street. The top portion of another pole had snapped and, while it did not break off, it was dangling downward at an alarming angle. As a result of the damage to the poles there were a lot of low hanging lines over the street and sidewalks. The scene really needed to be seen to be believed, but it was pretty catastrophic.
Having two of my semigrown daughters in college simultaneously has truly been an adventurous journey for our family – the kind where you enjoy amazing new experiences, but your expensive designer luggage gets stolen and you have to request an extra air-sickness bag.
