<br />WHICH REGULATES AND RESTRICTS THE LOCATION AND USE
<br />OF BUILDINGS, STRUCTURES AND LAND, DATED SEPTEMBER

<br />Mayor Craddock introduced for presentation alternatives to the Interim
<br />Site Development Ordinance that would provide protection of the San
<br />Marcos environment. City Manager A. C. Gonzalez reviewed with Council
<br />a comparison analysis of the Interim Site Development Ordinance (Al-
<br />ternate I) and a Landscaping Ordinance, with suggested amendments to
<br />the existing Interim Zoning Ordinance and Interim Subdivision Ordin-
<br />ance (Alternate II). The purpose of an alternative being offered was
<br />to provide protection for the environment without expending addition-
<br />al funds. Under Alternate I the cost could be passed through a fee
<br />schedule, based on the cost of the consulting firm on an individual
<br />basis. The taxpayer would not need to bear the cost. An estimated
<br />cost on the enforcement of Alternate I would be $57,845.00 per year,
<br />a copy of such estimate attached to these minutes. Mr. Gonzalez also
<br />reviewed with Council a comparison chart between Alternates I and II
<br />which provided the impact concerning coverage, density, erosion, slope,
<br />vegetation protection, water volume, water quality, advantages and dis-
<br />advantages of each Alternate, a copy of the chart being attached to
<br />these minutes. Under Alternate II the Environmental Advisory Board
