The record, newest first

  1. The restraining order expired without extension; the court set an Oct. 23 hearing on an injunction, and Keller has sought one of its own. (FOX 4 KDFW, Sept. 25, 2026)

  2. The Keller City Council voted to pursue legal action against the project. (Community Impact, Aug. 5, 2026)

  3. A Tarrant County district judge granted a temporary restraining order sought by a Keller homeowners association and two residents, and the Town Council put off its vote on the development agreement. (KERA News / Fort Worth Report, Aug. 18, 2026; Community Impact, Aug. 5, 2026)

  4. The Westlake Planning and Zoning Commission approved the site plan with sound walls and tree buffers along the Keller side. (Community Impact, Aug. 5, 2026; Baxtel, Aug. 7, 2026)

Conflicts and open questions

  • Acreage is reported as about 88 (KERA, Baxtel) or 90 (Community Impact); 1.1 million sq ft per FOX 4, about 1.2 million per Baxtel (four 300,000 sq ft buildings).
  • Outcome of the Oct. 23, 2026 hearing not found.
  • The lead's 'Tierpoint Dallas' building is unrelated and was not researched.
  • County: site is in Westlake on Keller's northern edge; Westlake spans Tarrant and Denton, Tarrant assumed (court is Tarrant County).
