During a regular meeting on December 23, the Bastrop County Commissioners Court approved an agreement with Darling Ingredients to house stray livestock in their stock pens. Darling Ingredients, which owns DARPRO Solutions at 264 FM 2336 near Camp Swift, was willing to donate the use of its facilities at no charge for the county to use for the protection and care of estray, or stray livestock. According to the agreement, Darling agrees to provide the use of their livestock pens, totalling about half an acre, for the containment of stray livestock animals seized or impounded by the Bastrop County Sheriff’s Office (BCSO).
