The program is designed to empower and assist residents and community organizations in realizing the goals from the Vision San Marcos Comprehensive Plan in their neighborhood. 

Over the next few months, the Planning and Development Services Department will be collecting input and meeting with neighborhood groups, community organizations and City Boards and Commissions.
