T <br />On March 16, 2010, the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board (Parks Board) made a <br />recommendation to support several revisions to the existing Parkland Dedication Ordinance. <br />The revisions will moderately increase the amount of parkland dedicated, as well as increase <br />the fees -in -lieu. The Park Board also recommended introducing a Development Fee to provide <br />a way to help fund capital improvements on dedicated land. No formal action was taken at the <br />meeting with regards to the recommendations. A list of recommendations can be found in <br />Appendix C. <br />Conclusion <br />San Marcos is in a position to capitalize on its growth, and provide residents and visitors a <br />comprehensive experience through a coordinated parks system. This document provides a <br />comprehensive view of the parks system as it exists and lays the foundation for future <br />development. San Marcos will achieve success with a mix of regional facilities for tournaments, <br />neighborhood parks for day -to -day use, and green space for interacting with the environment. <br />These facilities will provide local citizens the resources they need to maintain a healthy lifestyle, <br />while attracting people from around the region and state. <br />5 <br />
