For the first time since 1995, the City of San Marcos is conducting a survey to better classify local historic buildings and homes. Bobcat Update's Tyler Jackson has the story.
San Marcos currently has seven historic districts. City staff and volunteers are collecting photos and conducting other research to discover more about the history of San Marcos. Architectural styles, building materials and location are among factors being considered in the survey.

An environmental and archaeological consulting firm, Hicks and Company based in Austin, was hired to contribute to the research.

Griffin Spell, chair of San Marcos' historic preservation committee, is part of the city staff overseeing the project.

Spell says data collection is underway and more research will be conducted in February. A final report on the historic structures in San Marcos should be finished next year. For Bobcat Update, I'm Tyler Jackson.
