<br />39. <br /> <br />2000 <br />TML RESOLUTION COVER SHEET <br /> <br />Sponsoring Entity: The City of San Marcos <br /> <br />Brief Background: Substantial suburban growth is occurring in many rural areas of <br />Texas, outside of areas of municipal subdivision and zoning controls. Much of this <br />growth is taking place in areas that are limited in overall water supply, or sensitive with <br />respect to groundwater resources or other environmental issues. Texas counties need <br />additional subdivision control authority to effectively manage this growth. Texas cities <br />should support additional county subdivision control authority in the interest of ensuring <br />high quality, sustainable growth in areas that may one day become a part of their <br />jurisdiction. <br /> <br />What the Resolution is Intended to Accomplish: Higher quality, properly planned <br />growth in areas outside of the jurisdiction of Texas cities. <br /> <br />Statewide Importance: The problems associated with poorly planned suburban growth <br />in rural areas of Texas are occurring throughout the state. <br /> <br />Submitted by: <br /> <br />Name: David Chiu <br /> <br />Title: Mayor <br /> <br />City: San Marcos <br /> <br />Telephone: 512/393-8085 <br />
