During a recent government meeting, community members voiced strong concerns regarding proposed roadway development regulations and the potential impact of a new road connecting FM 110 to FM 1984. Noah Brock, a local resident, highlighted the necessity of a Transportation Impact Analysis (TIA) for the project, emphasizing that the public has repeatedly requested access to this document over the past year without success. He questioned the need for annexing a portion of the road, suggesting it may primarily benefit the developer rather than the community.

Annie Donovan, another resident, urged the council to vote against ordinance 2024-27, which would permit the construction of the new road. She argued that building the road could exacerbate traffic issues rather than alleviate them, referencing studies that indicate new roads often lead to increased traffic and accidents. Donovan pointed out San Marcos's troubling statistics regarding traffic fatalities, noting that the city has one of the highest rates of driving fatalities in Texas.

The meeting underscored a growing tension between community members and local government regarding development projects, with residents expressing a unified stance against the proposed Access Logistics Park. They cited previous engagements with city planning and zoning meetings, reiterating their belief that such developments do not align with the community's needs. As discussions continue, the council faces mounting pressure to consider the implications of their decisions on local traffic safety and community well-being.
