“Yes, ma'am. I have a few. When you say resident write-off, define resident for me, please, as gonna be defined here.”

“Okay, let me ask it differently. Are we saying it has to be a City of San Marcos corporate city limits resident? Yes, ma'am, and less. Not just a San Marcos address, because many, many people don't know if they live inside the corporate city limits or not. They know they have a San Marcos address.”

“And that's part of it. And then what about this agreement that we've got with shirts? We've got this agreement with them. So does that make them residents? And how much are they paying us?”

“So just because we have a contract, we're not gonna consider them residents? That is absolutely up to you, ma'am. Okay, and then my next question is, I'm just calling it travelers, because I don't think somebody who needs EMS services is scheduling that, they didn't plan to be in a car accident when they were traveling through San Marcos or whatever else might happen. So what are we talking about with travelers? Because if we're talking about a resident write-off, I'm trying to figure out who that is.”

“OK. So those are some of my questions. Apologies for not putting that on the message board so you had more of a notice. When do we define those?”

“Okay, another question is if something happens to me and I get a bill, what am I going to see on that bill?”
City Council · Sep 1, 2026

“So I won't see a bill until it's been run through whatever. All of your insurance, yes, ma'am. Because y'all are going to ask that. Hopefully I or someone can answer that question as to what insurance I have, et cetera.”

“So I'll see the gross bill. Yes, ma'am. I'll see whatever some agency has paid.”

“So that resident write-off is not going to be on the bill that I received? that's negotiable and a policy decision that we'll need to make. Okay, because I know some people, my dad, for example, is gonna pay what the bill says. And that would have been more than what would be required. But he wouldn't have asked. He would have said, you know, I use the service. This is what they tell me it's worth. And would have busted his butt to pay it. So that's what I'm concerned about is people who can have options that will pay part of that bill for them. How and when do they know that?”

“Okay. I'll see what others have to ask, but it sounds like there's still some stuff that we need to get figured out.”

“But it's not going to tell them, unless you know the address. Exactly. That's my concern, is any of those IDs would not. Did you have anything else?”

“But for the paid parking and for access to the parks, that wasn't costing us other than, I mean, we had to have people there anyway. In this particular case with EMS, that could well be costing us because what we're paying into the system is coming from our taxpayers' dollars. Correct. And those other folks are not paying into that system. So that's where I'm in a bit of a quandary as to how we're going to approach that.”
