Thank you to the approximately 60 people that came out to listen to the candidates today. Thank you to the VFW 8577 for allowing this forum to happen. Sometimes it is hard to find out information on local candidates. "Speak Up!!! Copperas Cove", Killeen Daily Herald, Copperas Cove Leader Press, and Cove Banner were all present representing the press. Ben Beck and Gary Kent were not at the forum and Mike Wilburn was not able to make it either. He let the VFW know in advance.

FYI, I learned that cameras that do video stop recording at 28 minutes, so I spliced 4 videos together. I am pretty sure I got about 98% of the forum.


Question 1 was about the preservation of Copperas Cove society and using the Allen House to help in doing so.

Question 2 was about transparency during the resent search for our city manager in relation to the recent search for a city manager in Killeen (both cities used the same firm and used different processes).

Question 3 was how they would help the Economic Development Corporation on development on the west side of town.

Question 4 was for the CCISD candidates dealt with trustee packets and preparing for board meetings.

Question 5 was about transparency of transportation plans for the north side of Copperas Cove because of traffic congestion.
