Roy Pope Zoning and Neighborhood Impact

Summary

Residents of West Byers and surrounding neighborhoods pushed back against turning the old Roy Pope grocery store into a full-service restaurant, citing major parking shortages and late-night noise concerns. Supporters argued the local eatery preserves a historic Fort Worth landmark and brings a vibrant, walkable family dining option to the area.
