Bastrop organizes a (code update) rodeo

There are traditional rodeos with bucking broncos and calf roping (not that we approve of that) and then there’s a whole different kind of rodeo that involves animated discussions about land use and development standards. Yee-haw! Bastrop is holding a Building Bastrop Code Update Rodeo, a final opportunity for its citizens to weigh in before the city crafts its draft development codes for review by the Planning & Zoning Commission. According to the announcement, “These discussions will ultimately lead to the adoption of new land-use regulations that are locally made, geographically sensitive and fiscally sustainable.” All are welcome. Thursday, May 9, 3-8 p.m. at the Bastrop Opera House, 711 Spring St., Bastrop.
