O. Box 725 <br />San Marcos, Texas 78666 <br /> <br />Dear Mark: <br /> <br />I 'hope you wi II excuse the delay in getting back to you regarding the <br />subdivision ordinance. Ron Hi 11 reported to me the visit which he <br />had with you on February 7. Since then I have given the matter some <br />thought. <br /> <br />It has been our experience that the initial writing or rewriting of a <br />subdivision ordinance wi" create no small amount of public interest <br />and concern. Also, a lot of problems can be eliminated by encouraging <br />participation by a selected group of citizens, during preparation of <br />the ord i nance. <br /> <br />Therefore we propose the following method for rewriting the City of <br />San Marcos Subdivision Ordinance. <br /> <br />I. Collect, review, summarize and comment on ordinances In use I -:) <br />by several cities in south central Texas. Campi Ie this data in the /1;,G,v <br />form of a preli,minary study including a ,suggested ordinance for San ?(JrD' /' <br />Marcos, uti I izing the TML ordinance as a guide. Svv~ <br /> <br />2. Attend meetings of the selected citizens group to discuss our/ ./ <br />recommendations and obtain input from members of the group. Based on <br />these discussions, prepare a draft ordinance to be presented at a publ ic <br />hearing. <br /> <br />3. Following a public hearing, prepare a final ordinance to be <br />acted upon by the City Counci I. <br /> <br />Due to the nature of the work, we propose to do this assignment on a per <br />diem basis. Vie estimate the cost of preparing the prel iminary report <br />and suggested ordinance at about $2800 to $3500. The cost of attending <br />meetings, hearing and preparing the final ordinance could vary from <br />$1000 to $2500 depending on the number of meetings necessary. <br /> <br />If this proposal is acceptable, please advise us and we are ready to <br />start work. Vie should be able to have the preliminary report and draft <br />ordinance within 45 days after receiving authorization to begin. <br />
