Recommendations 3 <br /> GOAL A-1. CONTINUE TO EVALUATE AND IMPROVE ATHLETIC <br /> FACILITIES IN THE CITY. <br /> Action A-1.1. Evaluate opportunities to establish a public private <br /> partnership (PPP)to increase the provision of athletic fields in the <br /> City. <br /> Through an expanded partnership with San Marcos CISD, the City can <br /> develop a joint-use agreement which allows PARD and other area youth <br /> associations to use school grounds in the evenings for practices and <br /> games.The potential increase in insurance costs would be less than the <br /> cost of acquiring new land and building additional facilities. <br /> Action A-1.2. Explore the possibility of relocating the baseball <br /> fields out of the riverfront parks system. <br /> One thing the City should consider in regard to the expansion of its <br /> baseball program, is to increase the number of fields from four to <br /> eight, and then eventually,to 12(see Table 3.8, Future Athletic Field <br /> Needs, on page 87).At present, there is not enough space at Ramon <br /> Lucio Park to accommodate this expansion, nor is it an ideal location, <br /> as it is best used to serve those visiting the San Marcos River. Based on <br /> the current distribution of athletic fields in San Marcos,the City should <br /> consider new fields west, east, or south of downtown. <br /> ,a• •• t :• • <br /> • <br /> II <br /> 4auu+� _igati1W4diiiv�i <br /> Consider relocating the baseball fields in the riverfront parks system to another location in San .. <br /> Marcos. <br /> w-. <br /> 88 City of San Marcos, Texas I San Marcos Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Master Plan <br />
