City of Killeen Proposition B: Repealing the Resign-to-Run Provision

Killeen city, Texas
My vote power: High

What does this measure do?

Killeen would stop requiring a council member to resign when filing to run for a different seat on the City Council. A member could stay in office while seeking that seat; the measure does not create a new tax.

Proposed by: Killeen City Council (Ordinance 26-030 calling the special election)

The city's elected council ordered the vote. Texas law says voters must approve any change to a city charter, the city's rulebook.
