Major Public Safety Activities

Police hat and badge.


Throughout the year the Police Department, in cooperation with numerous community and civic organizations, provided security and police escorts for parades and celebrations. We also coordinated traffic and assisted with other public safety events. Officers provided approximately 510 personnel hours for these events.

The largest event to date is still the Bastrop Homecoming. This event starts on a Thursday evening and goes until Sunday morning, and requires security for the dances, rodeos, carnival and for the parade. Off duty officers were compensated individually by the Homecoming Committee for the majority of this security.
