street network improvements in East McKinney, Capital Improvements Manager Nick Ataie said. The study shows tra c is expected to increase by about two and a half times its existing volume of 9,850 vehicles. A thoroughfare plan has been proposed that increases the access points to the area east of SH 5 from ve to nine. The thoroughfare plan also proposes four north-south corridors and an added east-west corridor between Lamar Street and Seneca Street. It also has revised connectivity to Airport Drive near the McKinney National Airport. Now that the thoroughfare plan has been proposed, the study will be nalized while public outreach and development continues.
UPCOMING PROJECT Eldorado Parkway improvements An upcoming construction project will widen Eldorado Parkway generally between Custer Road and Orion Drive from four lanes to six lanes, including widening an existing bridge structure over Rowlett Creek. The project also includes construction of additional turn lanes at the intersection of Custer Road. Other improvements along the corridor are anticipated to occur simul- taneously and are associated with the upcoming construction of the H-E-B at the northeast corner of Eldorado Parkway and Custer Road. This work includes additional turn lanes into the H-E-B site along Eldorado Parkway and a new tra c signal east of Custer The city of McKinney has conducted a study examining the streets and tra c east of SH 5. The East McKinney Streets & Tra c Study aims to identify a long-term street network in East McKinney to support additional tra c generated by the redevelopment of the area, such as the new Tupps Brewery site and the upcoming McKinney Municipal Complex. Following a year of study and public outreach, a proposed plan was pre- sented by city sta to City Council on May 17 that identi ed several potential new and modi ed streets. The study will be presented to City Council later this summer for adoption and will be used as a master-plan related to future

around McKinney. Though initial concepts from architecture firm Lake Flato + Parkhill included the Ice House as an event space, further assessment and inves- tigation revealed extensive structural issues, according to city reports. The evaluation team found struc- tural concerns including evidence of water leaking down the building interior and exterior, Shelton said during the presentation. The team found exposed rebar in some parts of the ceiling, and the roof had become disconnected from the building’s walls. Sunlight can be seen shining between the roof and walls, and the facility also sported cracks several bricks deep. “How this thing’s being held up is a little bit of a question,” Parkhill Community Director Scott Nelson said. There were also issues with pollu- tion on the site, Shelton said. If the city requested the developers

Construction crews demolished the McKinney Coal & Ice Co. Building in early August, in spite of some objec- tions from residents. McKinney City Council members discussed alternative options to keep- ing the decades-old McKinney Coal & Ice Co. Building, commonly known as the Ice House, as part of the Municipal Community Complex project during a work session July 19. Assistant City Manager Barry Shelton presented a report detailing an evaluation team’s structural assess- ments on the Ice House conducted during 2021. McKinney voters passed a $50 mil- lion bond proposition in 2019 in order to fund a new municipal complex, according to the city of McKinney’s website. The current facility is not big enough to house the city staff with additional space for administrative and parks employees currently rented

redesign the municipal complex to include the Ice House, it would set the project’s timeline back by five to eight months, he said. Council members agreed that it was not feasible to incorporate the Ice House into the new city hall design. “It’s a sad decision to say no, but it’s
not a hard decision for me,” Council Member Patrick Cloutier said. Developers are more than halfway complete in the construction docu- ments phase for the new municipal complex, Shelton said. A ground- breaking for the project is anticipated in October.

CITY HIGHLIGHTS MCKINNEY A project to install a large-scale mural on the east side of SH 5 in McKinney is nearing completion. International artist Guido van Helten intends to complete the mural’s installation by the end of August. Completion will signal the end of a citywide project that started in July 2021, which included citizen surveys and partial funding from grants and donations, according to the city website. MCKINNEY The city agreed Aug. 16 to end a contract with McRight-Smith Construction, due to the firm’s filing for bankruptcy in the spring. McRight-Smith Construction was brought on by the city in late 2020 to complete work on the McKinney National Airport’s executive terminal. Efforts to finish the project have encountered turbulence in the past, with the city contracting Western LLC in 2018 to work on the terminal before McRight-Smith. Western LLC defaulted on the agreement and filed for bankruptcy in early 2020. McRight-Smith showed six weeks of work left on the last schedule produced before giving notice to the city. The city plans to have a replacement contractor, hired by the Surety company, in the near future, a spokesperson for the city said.

McKinney officials propose lower tax rate for FY 2022-23 MCKINNEY City Council approved a maximum total prop- erty tax rate at the lowest amount in the city’s recent history. McKinney City Council voted Aug. 2 to set the maximum property tax rate for fiscal year 2022-23 at $0.459547 per $100 valuation. That is a 7.66% decrease from the tax rate set in last year’s budget. The Aug. 2 vote establishes the maximum rate the city is allowed to adopt for its next fiscal year budget. The City Council can still vote to adopt a lower tax rate than the proposed $0.459547 per $100 valuation. McKinney’s Chief Financial Officer Mark Holloway noted that the city manag- er’s recommended tax rate will be lower than the maximum rate. “Every year we set a ceiling that has been significantly higher than what we actually set,” Mayor George Fuller said at the meeting. Council Member Rick Franklin asked if this was the largest

tax rate reduction the city has had, to which Holloway responded in the affirmative. The city manager’s recommended budget was discussed at the Aug. 12 budget work session, and a public hearing on the budget was held Aug. 16. In September council will hold its second public hearing on the budget and plans to adopt the final version of the budget as well as hold a public hearing on the tax rate and adopt the new tax rate.
Project to bring about 216 senior housing units MCKINNEY City Council unan- imously approved a project that would develop about 216 senior multifamily units on about 12.9 acres northeast of the Craig Ranch Corporate Center. Bob Roeder, who represented the applicant Aug. 16, said this would be an active senior living community. “There is a need in our commu- nity for this,” he said to council. “It is fortunate for this particular site that we have a lot of medical

services in the immediate area.” Roeder said he expected the project to have an economic impact of more than $6 million annually. The 12.9 acres would be split into two tracts, with the senior multifamily uses on about 8.2 acres, and the remaining acreage would develop as a local commercial district, city staff said. The types of commercial development allowed in this tract include assisted living nursing homes, day cares, fitness clubs and more, staff said.

The advisor also helps students locate and apply for scholarships; write essays for college admission; apply for nancial aid and ll out federal student aid forms; and more. “We can’t award everybody with a scholarship, but we still want them to have a path to college,” Sine said. Not only do college advisors help students nd scholarships, but the foundation also awards its scholarships to MISD graduating seniors. Teacher grants are another way the MEF sup- ports the district by providing funding for innovative programs and ideas that might not be a t for the district’s budget. “We’re always looking for new ideas or innovative ideas—something a sta member saw at a technology confer- ence, for example,” Sine said. “We want them to try it in McKinney ISD and see if it works, so we provide them with the opportunity to do so.”
The McKinney Education Founda- tion was founded in 1991 to streamline the scholarship search process for McKinney ISD students, MEF Executive Director Ashley Sine said. Thirty years later, the organization has handed out almost $10 million in scholarships to MISD students, and its services have expanded with teacher grants and college advisors at MISD high school campuses, she said. “[The] MEF comes in to just enhance everything and allow innovative solu- tions to see if they work,” Sine said. Sine has been with the MEF since 2007 as one of the its college advisors at McKinney Boyd High School, later moving to executive director. The col- lege advisor program consists of three advisors who provide students with guidance and resources to support higher education at each MISD high
