Staff Reports
The City of San Marcos will present the draft housing study at its third Workforce Housing Task Force meeting on Thursday, March 14.
The meeting will be held from 12 PM to 2 PM at the San Marcos Rec Hall.
The Task Force is comprised of 19 community leaders assigned with assisting the San Marcos City Council in developing a strategic action plan to address the housing challenges faced by working families in San Marcos. Final recommendations from the task force are expected in fall 2019.
