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.

The body weight average of water in males is between 56% and 59% and in females it is between 47% and 50%. We drink water, we bathe in water, and use water in cooking many meals. People in general, and runners especially, have a need for water. There are not many times when a person doesn’t want or need water.
