We are definitely in need of them both with how much the town is growing. - RC Location: Bastrop , tx United States Editor's Comment: We certainly agree, especially considering the rapid population growth in and around Bastrop along with the large number of people traveling by Bastrop each day. Unfortunately, when deciding where to open new businesses, a town with a population under 10,000 is most likely quickly ignored.   3/1/2019 Subject: Arby’s Comment: Today March 01, 2019 I went to the Arby’s location in Bastrop and spoke with the Manager. They will be having their Grand Opening a week from Monday on the 11th at 10:00 AM. I just wanted to share the news. 😛 - ST Location: Bastrop , Tx Editor's Comment: Thanks for your information.   10/12/2018 Subject: Extension of Hunters Point Street Comment: Glad to see Hunters Point Blvd is being extended to open up the back of Hunters Crossing. With the increase of traffic on 304 and all the new apartments being built there this will help cut down some on the traffic. Gives Hunters Crossing residents better access to Hwy 71 going East. - Jk Location: Bastrop , Texas United States Editor's Comment: Thanks for the good news!   6/11/2018 Subject: UPDATE Comment: Just wondering if there is someone that could actually keep this website updated? - bj Editor's Comment: Thanks for your question. At this time, there have not been many announcements; however, there has been a lot of activity. If anyone hears of activities, I hope they will let me know so I can follow up to verify the facts and be sure the announcement can be made. Thanks again.   12/20/2017 Subject: Preserve at Hunters Crossing Comment: Tax credit apartments, 140 units is moving through their planning and development process. It will be at Hunters Crossing Boulevard and Home Depot Way. It will provide much needed workforce housing. Officials say that more than 5000 work in the city and live elsewhere. - NRG Editor's Comment: This would be helpful for many city employees such as those working in the Library, planning department, police, utility plus teachers, store workers and others that may be eligible.   8/8/2017 Subject: Website for posterity Comment: How can the Bastrop Genealogical Society assist in ensuring this website will continue to be available in the future?

Neil Gurwitz   3/20/2017 Subject: To the Elgin person Comment: I dont blame that person for being upset about whats going on with this site. Id rather hear rumors. Ive seen little business already go up in around Bastrop (not Elgin) and only found out because there own signs or from other people on Facebook. - PL Location: Bastrop , Tx Editor's Comment: Here are some updates. Kay Jewelers is going in at Burleson's. New Haven Assisted Living is building a memory care facility on Hwy 71 on the opposite side from the hospital. Spring Street Dental is going on Chestnut where Owens Music was. Several major buildings are also announced on our home page under news and upcoming events.   2/18/2017 Subject: Updates Comment: To the person who is upset because this site is not updated to their liking: you can always contact the Planning and Development Department at City Hall for information on what is happening in Bastrop. I, for one, appreciate that information I find here is reliable and not based on what someone told someone they heard about from someone else. - mc Location: Elgin , TX United States Editor's Comment: Thanks for your comment.

People other then me would like to know what is Being Built in Bastrop. Is there another site that will take people to find out what is being built in our city? - AA Editor's Comment: Thanks for your comments. For the updating in the last two months, I’ll give you the answers I’ve received. First, this is the slowest time of the year for new announcements. There is a lot of activity going on but new notices don’t come out until late January or February. Some new businesses and restaurants should be announced soon. Second, I could report rumors of new openings coming, but most prove incorrect. Therefore, our policy is to wait until they are official. To my knowledge there is not another site that consistently has this news. I too like to know what is coming to Bastrop! We have been fortunate to have the quality stores for our size town.

I saw at one time of a Denny's coming to Bastrop and now its being torn up to widen the Hwy. There should be another place to go to eat besides fast foods and mexican restuarants. People now travel to Austin for a different meal this takes monies away from Bastrop and people would have their choices and tourist would have different places they can stop and eat. - SRS Location: Bastrop , TX United States Editor's Comment: The larger restaurant chains usually consider size of city and market area before deciding to open there. Bastrop is starting to fit their requirements and they could start considering us.   5/12/2016 Subject: Grocery stores Comment: We are already in serious need of another grocery store. And with the 530+ homes being built behind Walmart, our infrastructure and stores can't handle that many people. Any news? - SW Location: Bastrop , TX Editor's Comment: Not at this time.   3/24/2016 Subject: Stores coming soon Comment: I am wondering if we are going to get an Olive Garden, Red Lobster, kohl's, KK( Krispy Kreme), oh! Oh! A Chipotle that'll be nice, ihop...! - WRR Location: Bastrop , TX United States Editor's Comment: .There has been no announcements at this time,   2/18/2016 Subject: Locks Pharmacy Comment: This Morning a young Woman came out of Locks Pharmacy to post the American Flag. While doing so I noticed Her holding Her hand over Her Heart. I asked what She said and She stated that every Morning after the Flag is posted they recite the Pledge to the American Flag. Being a Vet I salute Locks and those who work there. They are True Patriots of America the Great State of Texas and the City of Bastrop. - STB Location: Bastrop , Tx United States   1/2/2016 Subject: Movie Picture Quality and Sound Quality Comment: Hi we Visited your Theatre Tonight to see the New Star Wars Movie the Movie it Self was ok. But I was not impressed with the Picture or Sound Quality at all. I am not even sure the Picture would get a 480 Pixel Rating. Also Seats are to Close Together. I really Expected Better for a Star Wars Movie Picture Clarity and Sound That is Thanks. - DCJ Location: Bastrop , Tx United States Editor's Comment: I have spoken to several people who saw the movie there. None seemed to have noticed the problems you mentioned. Something must have happened at the showing you were at. You might want to mention it to the management 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ...
