Keller Planning Commission to Examine Bank Extension and Home Conversion

The City of Keller is set to hold important public hearings on December 9, 2024, focusing on urban development issues that could significantly impact the community. The Planning & Zoning Commission will convene at 19:00 to review a request for an extension from Frost Bank regarding a Specific Use Permit and a proposal for the temporary conversion of a residential property into an accessory dwelling.

The first item on the agenda pertains to a two-year extension request from Frost Bank. The financial institution seeks this extension to fulfill the requirements necessary for obtaining a building permit at their site located at 1231 Keller Parkway. The original permit was approved on December 3, 2024, and the extension aims to provide additional time to navigate the needed approvals for the project, which encompasses just over one acre of land.

In addition, the commission will discuss a proposal by Douglas Stamps, who is looking to temporarily utilize his 2,101-square-foot home as a secondary dwelling. This request comes as he plans to construct a new primary residence on his expansive 2.83-acre lot. This discussion highlights the evolving use of residential properties in response to ongoing development needs in the area.

These hearings will take place at the Keller Town Hall’s Council Chambers, located at 1100 Bear Creek Parkway. Residents and stakeholders interested in these developments are encouraged to attend and participate in the discussions. The complete agenda for the meeting will be published online by December 4, providing further details for those wishing to engage with the process.

The outcomes of these hearings will have implications for the future urban landscape of Keller, making it essential for community members to stay informed and involved.
