As you may have noticed, I have made this site temporarily "dormant" - due to pressure on my full time job. I hope to start publishing more news later this summer.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
In the meantime the Facebook group is still active - but not for businesses to promote.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Thank you and stay safe and well.</p>

It appears the May election for Mayor and two seats on City Council will not take place. Kara King stood unopposed for Mayor and Bill Goodwin and John Cobb stood unopposed for the two seats on Council. They are all effectively elected and the election will be cancelled.</p>

At the end of their January 28th meeting Travis County had cancelled the Bond to fund the new bridge at the entry to the Homestead in Bee Cave. Bee Cave has now annexed the strip of land involved and will be taking over the costs of building the new bridge - designed to keep the single access road open during floods.</p>
