Queens City Council finalizes plans for new fleet and park maintenance buildings

Killeen City Council has made significant strides in improving city facilities, as discussed during their recent meeting on July 15, 2025. The council approved plans for the construction of new maintenance buildings, which will enhance operational efficiency and working conditions for city employees.

The Park Maintenance Building will remain at its current location, while the new Fleet Maintenance Building will be established at the entrance of the former transfer station on Highway 195. This strategic move aims to optimize city resources and improve service delivery. Additionally, the council plans to expand the existing evidence storage facility at the police station, ensuring better management of critical materials.

Council members expressed enthusiasm about these developments, particularly Councilwoman Cobb, who highlighted the importance of providing comfortable working environments for city staff. She emphasized the need for modern facilities, stating that the improvements will allow employees to work more effectively and with greater comfort.

The council also discussed the fate of the old Park Maintenance Building, which may be demolished or repurposed, showcasing a commitment to maximizing city assets.

These enhancements reflect Killeen's ongoing efforts to invest in infrastructure that supports both city operations and employee welfare. As these projects move forward, residents can expect improved city services and a more efficient local government.
