The Hays County Parks and Open Space Advisory Commission (POSAC) will host a virtual meeting on Wednesday at 6 p.m. to present and discuss a project-filled agenda.
POSAC was established by the Hays County Commissioners Court in February of 2020.
Initially, the purpose of the commission was to establish a process to study the possibility for a potential park, open space, and conservation bond program and to solicit recommendations to the Hays County Commissioners Court on the viability of including a potential bond package on the November 2020 ballot.
This would ultimately lead to Proposition A. According to the POSAC web page, Proposition A “called for the issuance of $75,000,000 in general bonds, along with other potential funding mechanisms, to establish parks, open spaces, conservation lands, and other recreational opportunities.”

Hays County’s Parks and Open Space Advisory Commission (POSAC) is seeking additional ideas and project recommendations to be funded by the recently passed Parks Bond.
Hays County Proposition A, Parks & Open Space Bond was passed with around 70% of voters in approval in the November 2020 Election to fund $75 million dollars of projects.
POSAC provided recommendations for 16 projects that might be funded by the bond, and they are now seeking additional project ideas related to urban parks, conservation and open space, connectivity and water quality protection and flood mitigation. Projects can meet the goals of one or more of these categories.
