Development
BY GABBY BAILEY, PATRICIA ORTIZ & CODY THORN
Keller City Council denies proposed development Keller City Council unanimously did not pass a zoning-change request for an eight-lot subdivision during its July 15 meeting. What happened City Council considered whether the Heritage Grove development near Clara Lane and Indian Knoll Trail should be permitted to develop eight homes on lots 30,000 square feet and larger. The area is currently zoned for lots 36,000 square feet and larger. City o cials criticized the project due to its lack of green space, the impact the development could have for current residents and its attempt for rezoning to smaller lot sizes. “This is one of our few rural-feeling streets left, so any kind of downzoning when that’s unneces- sary is going to leave a bad taste in my mouth,” council member Greg Will said.

The backstory Applicant William Solomon of Suma Monde Kapital Partners said the zoning change would provide space to implement infrastructure to help with drainage and an “aesthetic” community. Despite the city’s Planning and Zoning Com- mission’s approval of the zoning change in a 4-3 vote, residents expressed opposition to the project because of the proposed lot sizes and existing storm drainage issues.
