Replacing the current crushed granite, uneven, walking paths with pervious Porous Pave material will help improve stormwater runoff quality and reduce the maintenance needed from Facilities and Meadows staff with pathway upkeep. Currently, decomposed granite from the paths gets washed directly into the lake through stormwater runoff and has leach-able total dissolved solids – which has put the San Marcos River on the 303d list. The pathways will also be more ADA friendly as decomposed granite ruts over time, creating uneven surfaces. The goal is to reduce the sediment load into the lake, which looks like milk chocolate after significant rain events.
