The Killeen City Council will be considering appointing a new member to the council at a special meeting Tuesday.
The council unanimously approved the nomination of former Killeen City Councilman Terry Clark to the vacant District 3 council seat last week.
The District 3 seat has been vacant since Councilman Jim Kilpatrick died in January of COVID-19.
Also during the meeting, the council will be discussing impact fee calculations, receive a planning and zoning update and get updated on COVID-19 and the recent winter weather from City Manager Kent Cagle.
After the discussion items on the agenda, the council will go over the items for the March 9 meeting as well.
Following a closed meeting Monday, the council unanimously approved the nomination of former Killeen City Councilman Terry Clark to the District 3 council seat.
Clarkâs name was put in nomination by Councilman Ken Wilkerson. Also under consideration were former Councilman Jared Foster and Nina Cobb, a candidate in the May 1 council race.
Mayor Jose Segarra said that the decision to nominate Clark, in addition to his being âthe most impressiveâ nominee, also stems largely from the councilâs original intent not to nominate someone on the May ballot for the council seat. This represented the deciding factor.
Clark served on the Killeen City Council from 2011 to 2015.
