Concerning a
policy/project that has been enacted to address a problem/issue
Why is this
important/how does this affect individuals/families? The conservation
project to restore the San Marcos river is very important and will positively
affect individuals/families living in the San Marcos area.
My Views: I think
its phenomenal that city officials have initiated a conservation project to
help restore the San Marcos river. The river is the soul of San Marcos and it
is our responsibility to protect it and enhance its natural form. I think it
is very smart to create new entrance points to the river in an effort to direct
people away from the wild rice. As it is now, many of the entrances place
people directly on top of the engendered wild life. Efforts to further protect
particular areas of the river in which the endangered wildlife is most
predominant with pool floats are also very smart. Additionally, informing the
general public of the protected species that reside in the river and ways to
avoid disturbing it will be helpful. In addition to protecting the various wildlife
that inhabits the river, the project will be beneficial for river patrons as
well. As stated in the article, “the access points will allow for the general
public to enter and exit the river with greater ease”. Although the
entrances/exits are pretty easily accessible as of now, increasing the ease
will be advantageous to older and disabled citizens that want to enjoy the
river. All and all, I strongly support the San Marcos river conservation
project and I am looking forward to seeing the progress.
