Building Bastrop County Digital Command Center Launches
Bastrop County is emerging as the next global epicenter of AI infrastructure, advanced media production, and next-generation chip design. To ensure our residents, business leaders, and corporate partners stay informed, we have officially launched BuildingBastropCounty.com.
Unprecedented Transparency
This platform serves as a central clearinghouse for the most critical metrics affecting our residents. The site features an interactive Tax Relief Estimator, showcasing how the expanded commercial tax base derived from projects like the EdgeConneX Data Center Campus will offset residential property taxes, while routing over $100 million directly into Bastrop ISD.
“This isn’t just about growth; it’s about making sure that growth pays for our schools, lowers our taxes, and gives our kids a reason to stay in Bastrop County,” said Commissioner David Glass during the site unveil.
