Fort Worth to consider zoning changes for 23 Keller ISD properties

Fort Worth City Council will discuss the proposal to change 23 properties owned by Keller ISD

On Tuesday, Feb. 25, the Fort Worth City Council will discuss zoning changes for 23 properties owned by Keller ISD.

City officials said the rezoning would turn properties in Districts 4, 7 and 10, currently designated as residential and agricultural spaces, into a new "Community Facilities" district for educational uses. A full list of the properties is here.

The city said the rezoning considerations would ensure the properties aligned with each neighborhood's estimated growth and changing accessibility needs.

This comes about a month after the Keller ISD board of trustees proposed splitting the district, eliciting a large community response, including student walkouts and legal action from affected HOAs.
