Celina officials have approved plans for several developments in recent months that bring more land and homes into the city. In May, Celina City Council approved plans for three new single-family neighborhoods that could bring nearly 500 more homes and 196 acres of land to the city. More homes are up for consideration in Prosper as well. At a June 17 meeting, the Prosper Planning and Zoning Commission discussed a proposed 373.5- acre project that could bring a few hundred more homes to the town. The plans for the proposed development, called Prosper Oaks, call for 275 single-family homes and 525 age-restricted units for those 55 and older. The project was tabled and is still being considered by Prosper officials.

Cawthorn said. “[Celina] is destined to grow at that same rate that Plano did back in the day and that Frisco did and that we’ve seen Prosper experience. Celina is next.” The reason builders keep developing in the Prosper-Celina area is its proximity to long-stand- ing employment centers along the Dallas North Tollway, Cawthorn said. The continued expansion of the toll road northward into Grayson County will bring even more growth to the area, he said.
Single-family home permit filings have increased year-over-year in Celina between 2022- 24. In that same time, these filings have decreased in Prosper. Tom Cawthorn, president of the Dallas division of home builder Taylor Morrison, said Prosper is approaching build-out. He suspects this may be slowing down single-family home growth in the town and sending it to neighboring Celina. “The next logical step northward is Celina,”
