The City Council approved the second reading of a rezoning ordinance for a property to be known as 'The Wren,' allowing a plan development overlay that would permit an additional story on a multifamily building and create an approximate total of 80 units targeted for active‑adult living.

City staff explained the site sits north of Southeast Ashworth Road and east of Grand Prairie Parkway, covers about 5.78 acres, and that the underlying zoning already allowed multifamily development; the overlay would let the developer add one more story. Staff recommended approval, noting consistency with the Kettleson master plan. Council members voted in favor on the recorded second reading.

No substantive amendments were proposed during the meeting; staff offered to answer questions and the council proceeded to vote.
