The 2024 Main Street Program budget will receive a $25,000 reduction from its original $532,000 budget.
As the Main Street manager position has been vacant since December with no needed salary, there is little impact expected with the budget reduction.
By the numbers
The $25,000 typically funded by the Bastrop Economic Development Corporation will be removed from the 2024 budget due to the reallocation of the corporation’s funds to the newly installed street maintenance tax. The tax reallocates 75% of the BEDC budget to roadwork.
