Big meeting! Big, frustrating meeting. The theme of the night is “San Marcos Has to Pay Bills” and the second theme is “lalala I can’t hear yyyyyooouuu”. Lots of budget drama!
Hours 0:00 – 5:51: EMS billing, a boatload of budget and rate hike discussions, some minor SMPD funding, and CARTS
Bonus! 3 pm workshops: the 10 year CIP list and the next draft of the River Parks and Quail Creek Park plans
whew. It was a weird night.
