SAN MARCOS TRANSIT PLAN I FINALREPORT <br />City of San Marcos <br />This section summarizes outreach efforts and feedbackreceived from the secondround of <br />community engagement. <br />Community Meetings <br />On January 28, 2020 the projectteam facilitated three community meetings to solicit feedbackon <br />the transit coordination and service adjustment proposals. The project team hostedthree-hour <br />pop-up sessions at the Texas State University Quad and San Marcos Station duringthe morning <br />and afternoon, and a formal community meeting at the San Marcos Activity Center in the evening <br />on January28, 2020. Meetings were publicized using a print flyer that was posted at bus stops <br />and San Marcos Station. In addition, the City of San Marcos and Texas State University publicized <br />the meeting via e -blasts, social media posts, and on their respective websites. Business cards with <br />a linkto the online survey were also handed out. <br />Direct outreach materials included fourposterboards: a study overview, a comparison of the city <br />and university systems, aboard representing the components of a consolidated system, and a <br />summary of proposed network changes. <br />The second round of outreach generated varied feedback among the different outreach locations. <br />Survey results from the University included limited feedback overall. With information <br />disseminated through business cards, an online surveywas where students were directed to <br />provide feedback. At the San Marcos Station and San Marcos Activity Center, there was far more <br />support than concerns the Downtown Transit Center. There was interest in a fare free system and <br />the need forbetterbus stops was also brought up. <br />Nelson\Nygaard Consulting Associates, Inc. ( B-27 <br />
