Hallsville — The Hallsville City Council has yet to settle severance packages for Hallsville officers who were let go after the council voted to reinstate the officers who were terminated in late December.

Council members met Monday night in a special meeting to discuss personnel matters.

Hallsville Mayor Jerri Medrano said the only action taken Monday was for the city’s attorney and the former officers’ attorney to continue discussing severance packages.
