Killeen City Council Candidate Jessica Gonzalez hosted a community forum in downtown Killeen on Sunday for a reason. âThatâs the whole purpose of being here today,â Gonzalez said shortly before the event began at 4 p.m. at Letâs Eat Texas on Avenue D. âTo figure out how and why weâre still in the same position and to really figure out how to get the process rolling.â The long standing issue of the best way to revitalize downtown Killeen, the area of the city where Gonzalez grew up, is a major priority for her campaign. She is a candidate for the District 1 seat in the upcoming May election, currently held by Shirley Fleming, who has termed out and will not be running for reelection.
