City Manager Sylvia Carrillo-Trevino said Bastrop had “come light years in a very short period of time” while creating the new code, which she said was a community eort over the past year. Though she and council members agreed that B3 did some things well, like improving walkability and preserving historic downtown, it proved dicult to use with a one-size- ts-all approach. Bastrop ocials emphasized that the BDC is meant to make it easier for residents and developers to le for and easier to read on the zoning map. Brittany Epling, Bastrop’s senior planner, said the zoning map update does not reclassify individual properties but instead shifts them into newly named districts with updated standards. She said the change is intended to move properties into comparable districts under a framework that is clearer and easier to navigate for residents, businesses and sta.
