KYLE — The search to fill the seventh seat on the Kyle Planning & Zoning Commission is over.
Kyle City Council approved the appointment of Brandon James to fill the seat during its regular meeting on Tuesday, Feb. 24.
“We made an advertisement on the city’s website, through our social media and had a fantastic response rate,” said Howard Koontz, director of planning and community development. “We had a number of great qualified individuals who wanted to take the slot of the seventh position.”
James moved to Texas from Wichita, Kansas, and has resided in the Plum Creek area of Kyle for about two years. He works as a field manager for MOVE Texas. While he previously served on a Planning and Zoning Commission in Wichita for several years, he is excited to now volunteer his time in Kyle.
“I love this community,” James said. “It’s been an amazing place to live. I have lived in quite a few places in the United States and this is by far, one of the best places I’m looking forward to serving my community effectively and to the best of my ability.”
