Introduction <br /> Prior chapters of this Plan have captured the vision for San Marcos' <br /> parks, recreation,and open space by evaluating the requirements <br /> and preferences of the public and assessing existing conditions <br /> and levels of service. Chapter 3,System Analysis, Needs, and <br /> Recommendations, details what needs to be completed to accomplish <br /> the desired public vision for the future. <br /> Moving forward,this chapter prioritizes the action recommendations <br /> into an Implementation Action Plan that details the near-, mid-,and <br /> long-term path moving forward.While it determines the City's highest <br /> near-term priorities, it also provides direction towards attaining <br /> longer-term priorities which will require further prioritization and re- <br /> prioritization before implementation. <br /> This chapter further provides a framework for Plan management. <br /> It has recommendations for upcoming Plan updates to ensure the <br /> anticipated vision for the parks and recreation system remains <br /> aligned with that of the San Marcos community. <br /> Coordinated Implementation <br /> Actual implementation of this plan will include a coordinated effort <br /> by many partners, including City public leaders and residents as well <br /> as outside agencies.This coordinated implementation will be vital to <br /> the successful implementation of the Plan recommendations.This <br /> also comes with the recognition that the City has a responsibility <br /> to partner with all local,state, and federal entities that can be <br /> of assistance in expanding and refining the San Marcos parks, <br /> recreation,and open space system today and in the future.At a <br /> minimum,this includes: <br /> • San Marcos Greenbelt Alliance(SMGA) <br /> • San Marcos River Foundation(SMRF) <br /> • Texas Master Naturalists <br /> • Texas Master Gardeners <br /> • Lions Club <br /> • Youth Associations <br /> • Jr. NBA/WNBA Basketball League <br /> • Fall Slam Youth Volleyball <br /> • Snake League Soccer <br /> • Jr NFL Flag Football <br /> • USA Fall Youth Developmental League <br /> • San Marcos Area Youth Soccer Association-SMAYSO <br /> • San Marcos Area Youth Softball Association-SMYBSA <br /> • Hays County <br /> • Texas Department of Transportation(TxDOT) <br /> • Texas Parks and Wildlife Department(TPWD) <br /> • Texas State University <br /> • The Meadows Center <br /> • Natural Resources Conservation Services-NRCS <br /> 142 City of San Marcos, Texas San Marcos Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Master Plan <br />
