Bastrop, Tx–A unified slate of candidates seized control of the Tahitian Village water and road district board May 8 in Bastrop, winning election to three of five seats.
The winning candidates include former Bastrop city councilman John Creamer, Bastrop Planning and Zoning Commission member Christy Kossser and veteran political activist Vic Gonzalez.
The Bastrop County Water Control and Improvement District No. 2, which covers the 7,000-lot Tahitian Village subdivision from the southeast sector of Bastrop into adjoining parts of Bastrop County to the Colorado River, oversees water, sewer and road improvement services in the area.
The insurgent campaign raised questions about recent administrative oversight of the district’s affairs as well as road and street improvement plans and execution.
Holdover board members include Bastrop surveyor Dale Olson and businessman Stan Wellso.
