McKinney council approves annexation and rezoning near Trinity Falls Parkway
Summary
At a Sept. 23 special work session the McKinney City Council closed a public hearing and approved annexation and rezoning of a parcel south of Saphira Way to allow single-family and multi-family uses, following staff recommendation.
The McKinney City Council on Sept. 23 closed a public hearing and voted to approve an annexation and accompanying rezoning request for a parcel described by staff as 140 feet south of Saphira Way and about 1,300 feet west of Trinity Falls Parkway.
Staff told the council the request would annex the property and rezone it from Planned Development (PD) to allow single-family and multi-family uses and would modify development standards. "As it stands staff is supportive. It matches with our comprehensive plan and will be a continuation of the MMD and the Honey Creek District in this area," a staff member told the council.
The council action came after the public hearing was opened and no members of the public addressed the body. Mayor Pro Tem Felters moved to close the public hearing and approve the item "as per staff recommendation;" Councilman Lynch seconded the motion. The mayor called for the vote and "that motion carries," according to the meeting record.
The staff presentation noted the property notification for the current submittal was limited to single-family residential uses. No applicant representative spoke at the hearing, and the council did not read a roll-call vote in the meeting minutes; the motion was recorded as approved.
The approved action covers the annexation request referenced in the agenda as 25-00035Z/25-001A and an accompanying ordinance. Council materials identified the rezoning and amendments to development standards but did not provide additional conditions on the record at the work session.
The council convened to other business after the vote. The ordinance and related exhibits are expected to appear in the formal agenda packet for final adoption and codification, as is standard practice for council zoning actions.
