There could be a new Killeen member on the board of directors for the Tax Appraisal District of Bell County in the coming weeks.
Dick Young, the former Killeen city councilman and a former member of the board for the Water Control and Improvement District No. 1, was nominated by the Killeen City Council Tuesday to take the city of Killeen spot on the tax board.
Young said Friday he had been looking to find a way to serve the community since stepping down from the water board last year. Young, who became a housing developer last year, had to step down from the water board because state law prohibits developers from serving on water boards.
