Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Keller public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Winding Creek Subdivision Tree Preservation Appeal
The developer of Winding Creek received approval to remove trees and grade three residential lots to lift building pads out of the floodplain following federal map revisions.
City Policy on Religious Invocations
Keller is in hot water after uninviting a pastor from a city event just because he supports LGBTQ Pride. It’s triggered a massive debate over whether the city should be playing gatekeeper for religious speakers or staying neutral.
State of the City
Keller's Mayor Armin Mizani just dropped the annual State of the City address, showing off what the town's been up to and where it's headed next. If you live here, it's a quick way to catch up on local wins and upcoming projects without reading a novel.
City Personnel Policy
Keller is experimenting with a four-day work week for some city employees to see if it improves operations. You might notice changes in how quickly you get help at City Hall, so keep an eye on service hours before you head out.
Abortion Ban Ordinance
Keller is weighing a controversial new ordinance to ban abortion and brand itself a 'sanctuary city for the unborn.' Local leaders are currently debating whether this polarizing policy should be adopted.
Smoking Ban
Keller is looking at a new ban on public smoking, which means where you can light up in town is about to change. If passed, it'll totally reshape the local vibe in public spots.
