For the second time in three months, Southlake City Council approved expansion plans for White’s Chapel Methodist Church.

At the Feb. 3 meeting, Brent Kline of architecture firm Kline Hardin, on behalf of the church, requested a zoning change and concept/site plan approval for the property at 185 S. White Chapel Blvd.

The plans call for the construction of a youth activity center and expansion to Education Building B, according to the presentation.

The details: Phase 1 of the project includes a two-story addition to the Youth Activity Center, with 17,337 square feet added on the north side of the existing Children’s Education Building.

The second phase of the construction would be a new foundry space designed for contemporary worship services, seating approximately 578 occupants.

Also on the agenda: During the consent agenda, the March 17 City Council meeting was canceled due to spring break for Carroll ISD students and families.

Toys R Us has reopened in a new location at Grapevine Mills.

The store sells plush animals, Legos, board games, Hot Wheels, Funko pops, Barbies and more.

A closer look: According to previous reporting, Toys R Us held a grand opening on Sept. 20 at Suite 432. Toys R Us returned to the mall after closing its doors in March 2018 when the company closed all 735 United States stores, according to previous Community Impact reporting.

The details: The toy store is now next door to its previous location, inside the former Dickies Clearance Store. That business closed on Nov. 24, according to previous reporting.

The Dallas Fort Worth International Airport board approved an increase for a contract to add the replacement of the flyover bridge into Terminal E.

During the Feb. 5 meeting, Phase 2 of the International Parkway Bridges was approved for an additional $136.1 million for the flyover replacement. It is part of the ongoing $12 billion DFW Forward capital plan, which is expanding and modernizing the airport that celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2024.

What's happening: Replacement of the existing left-hand exit flyover bridges into terminals A and B occurred in 2025, and work is currently ongoing for Terminal C flyover bridge replacement. Those three terminals along with Terminal E are the four original buildings and roadways that opened in 1974.

The Terminal E flyover bridge is at the end of life, and the location conflicts with the planned Terminal F ticketing and parking garage.

What else? A contract with Passur Aerospace of Orlando, Florida, was increased by $221,377 to $2.51 million and extended to March 4, 2027.
