_..Aft <br />qW <br />Our City Council recognizes the future increased projections of <br />traffic from western part of Hays County and, without alternative <br />roadway(s), the impact of that increased traffic on congestion <br />within our City. For this reason, there needs to be a meaningful <br />commitment to a connection from Ranch Road 12 to Interstate <br />Highway 35. We recognize the unique environmental characteristics <br />of the land over the Edwards Aquifer, its recharge zones and the San <br />Marcos River. <br />It is the desire of this Council to balance the needs for future mobility <br />with the protection of these sensitive environmental features and <br />areas. We support a plan that the cost of any roadway(s), if any, that <br />address traffic originating outside our city be paid for with funds <br />from sources other than the City of San Marcos. It is our intent to <br />be part of any discussion with any authority working to plan any <br />roadway in any part of our City's jurisdiction. The goal is to protect <br />the San Marcos River, our unique environmental land, enhance air <br />quality in the City and region while addressing mobility challenges <br />we face in the future. <br />
