A proposed craft brewery and pizzeria are no longer coming to the city of Keller, and now the owner of the property at 207 S. Elm St. is looking at options to fill those spaces in the building.

Some context: Brian Palfrey requested a specific use permit to allow spa uses in the building at the Nov. 3 council meeting. The new plan presented a retail option facing Elm Street and individual salon suites on the first and second floors.

Keller City Council ultimately decided to table voting on the request after discussion in its work session. Mayor Ross McMullin asked Palfrey to talk with city staff about the vision of the building, as well as the parking limitations and entry and exit issues.

The item was tabled until the Nov. 17 council meeting.

The city of Fort Worth held the first of two public hearings Nov. 10 in regards to a possible moratorium on accepting, processing and approving data center applications.

What's happening? Council voted to initiate a moratorium process at the Aug. 11 meeting, but the earliest it could be approved is Feb. 23, 2027, according to the presentation.

The public hearing lasted more than one hour with each speaker in favor of implementing a moratorium on data centers. Before the public hearing, city council received a 156-page report from the Fort Worth Data Center & Infrastructure Commission.

Resident Letitia Wilburn questioned holding the public hearing just an hour after the report from the commission.

“The public hasn’t really had enough time to go through it,” she said.

Looking ahead: The second public hearing is slated for Jan. 12, a week later than planned earlier this summer. The moratorium on development and permitting could start if passed following a second reading Feb. 23.
