In 1985, at the age of 31, Kelly Jones was elected to the Arlington City Council, becoming the youngest member so elected since the legendary Tom Vandergriff. He served his planned two terms, serving the last two years as chairman of the Budget and Audit Committee.
Twenty years later, after moving to the west Fort Worth community of Westworth Village, Kelly was elected to the Westworth Village City Council in 2009, where he served five years as mayor pro-tem and as chairman of the Finance Committee. He returned to the Westworth Village City Council in 2018, and again serves as mayor pro-tem and chairman of the Finance Committee.
