The Texas governor announced on Tuesday that the statewide mask mandate will be coming down next week, but masks could still be required in some places at the local level. On Tuesday, Killeen city spokeswoman Hilary Shine said that the mask mandate made by Mayor Jose Segarra last year had been superseded by the governorâs order in July. âThe Governorâs order removes the statewide mask requirement and capacity restrictions but allows for each business to determine what practices they wish to employ,â Shine said by email on Tuesday. Segarra said that at this point it will be mainly on a voluntary basis, for businesses and individuals.
