The court's year. On November 10, 2025 the officer presented VA's Geographic Distribution of Expenditures for 2023-24, which puts VA spending in Bastrop County at $109,293,744 for the year, and the Commissioners Court approved the office's applications to the Texas Veterans Commission for three grants: General Assistance, Critical Home Repairs and Home Modifications, and Pet Lodging and Veterinary Care Services.
