McKinney City Council Approves Encore Expansion, Airport Progress, and Upcoming Events
McKinney Buzz: What's Happening in Our City Today
McKinney is buzzing with activity as we head into an important day for our city. The McKinney City Council meets today at 3 p.m. for a work session followed by a regular meeting at 6 p.m. at City Hall on East Virginia Street[1]. If you can't make it in person, catch the livestream online.
One major item on today's agenda is the zoning request for Encore Wire's expansion. The Planning and Zoning Commission has already unanimously recommended approval of rezoning nearly 200 acres next to McKinney National Airport for a new industrial building[1]. This expansion by Prysmian, which acquired Encore Wire last year, is expected to break ground later in 2025 with completion scheduled for 2026.
The McKinney National Airport itself continues to develop, with the City Council recently approving a construction agreement that moves commercial passenger service closer to reality[2]. Construction on the new terminal is expected to begin next month, with commercial flights anticipated to take off in late 2026. This project is projected to add another $400 million annually to our local economy.
For those looking for evening plans, head to Lone Star Winery on East Virginia Street tonight at 7 p.m. for a Premium Wine and Cadillac Pizza Pairing Experience[5]. For $44, you can enjoy five curated wines paired with five Cadillac pizza slices in what promises to be a delicious evening of food, drink, and fun.
Looking ahead to tomorrow, McKinney Performing Arts Center will host a Historic Preservation Month Celebration at 6:30 p.m.[5].
The city is also moving forward with exciting developments like the Cannon Beach project, a $200 million multi-use development set to break ground this year at the northeast corner of the city[3].
Our growing city continues to balance new development with community needs as we head into the summer months. Whether you're interested in city planning, enjoying local cuisine, or supporting the arts, there's something for everyone in McKinney today.
