Bastrop city council to consider Sunday liquor sales

Bastrop, a town that's about a half-hour north-northeast of Monroe, is considering extending Sunday liquor sales to 2am (from midnight) at the request of a bar owner. There's apparently some resistance:

[Boo Robinson, District A] stated that she did not like being asked to change laws “that we’ve had for a long time” for one person. Additionally, she said she didn’t like alcohol sales on Sunday because families have used that as time together “for millions of years.”
