Commissioners recess to closed session on Priest Drive property in Killeen; no public action taken
Summary
The court entered a closed session under Texas Government Code 551.072 to deliberate the purchase, exchange, lease, or value of real property related to Priest Drive property in Killeen, then returned with no action taken on the matter.
The Bell County Commissioners Court recessed into closed session under Texas Government Code §551.072 to deliberate the purchase, exchange, lease, or value of real property relating to Priest Drive property in Killeen, Texas. The court invited parties to leave the room and stated it did not anticipate a long closed session.
After returning to open session, the court recorded that no action was taken on the closed-session item. The meeting then recessed for a staff workshop.
Why it matters: closed sessions under §551.072 allow a governmental body to deliberate real-property negotiations in private when public discussion would harm the government's position in negotiations. The court followed that statutory process and reported no formal action when it returned to open session.
