San Marcos given PROPS for activism by Austin Chronicle

The Austin Chronicle gave San Marcos some awesome PROPS for democracy in action in this weeks edition of the publication. "Apparently Hays County is more progressive than Austin: Citing community complaints, Hays Co. commissioners Tuesday canceled a road design contract with KBR, the military contractor and former Haliburton subsidiary maligned for dangerously shoddy, overpriced work in Iraq. To the chagrin of local activists, KBR is still performing engineering work for the city of Austin."
