Book lovers in Keller may soon have a new haven if a Specific Use Permit (SUP) request gets the green light during the upcoming Planning & Zoning Commission meeting. A House With Books is looking to open its doors in an approximately 1,600 square-foot lease space within the cozy confines of Keller Town Center, at the crossroads of Bear Creek Parkway and Town Center Lane.
The proposal detailed by the city's recent announcement suggests that this purveyor of used books is vying to become part of the local community fabric. Set within a 5.55-acre area, the retail bookstore intends to operate amidst the hustle and bustle of 201 Town Center Lane, Suite 3123, an address that could soon be synonymous with literary culture in Keller. Notably, the real estate in question is "legally described as Lot 7, Block B of the Keller Town Center Addition, zoned Town Center (TC)," according to the announcement from the City of Keller.
The public hearing is scheduled for 7 p.m. sharp on Tuesday, October 8, at the Council Chambers of Keller Town Hall. Interested citizens and bibliophiles alike can mark their calendars to voice their opinions, ask questions, or simply soak in the proceedings of local governance in action.
For those eager to view the full agenda or perhaps catch a sneak peek at the store's future layout, the entire docket for the meeting will be published shortly before the event, slated for release by Thursday, October 3. The community can download the related documents, maps, and more directly from the city’s website. Any additional questions or clarifications can be directed to the Community Development Department at 817-743-4130, ensuring that all community members can be well-informed participants in the development of their town's cultural offerings.
