WhereAbout 420 ft east of Enloe Road and about 4,940 ft south of East University Drive (U.S. 380), east McKinney next to the airport (AP district). Approximately 398.55 acres of undeveloped land now in McKinney's ETJ (no city zoning). Street address is not published.
Comment deadlinePassed: the Planning & Zoning Commission hearing was Tue Oct 13.

What's proposed

Give the land its first city zoning, "I1" – Light Industrial. The property is covered by a 2016 pre-annexation agreement that lets the city annex and zone it after ten years. The comprehensive plan designates it Aviation and Employment Mix, both of which support light industrial. No specific development is proposed.

Staff recommendation

"Approval" of I1 zoning. Staff says it conforms to the ONE McKinney 2040 plan and "should not negatively impact" the property or neighbors.

Who it helps or hurts

Adjacent single-family / residential ownersNeutral

The report lists no homes next to the site; neighbors are a landfill, the airport and undeveloped land.

Nearby commercial / land investorsHelped

Nearly 400 acres become zoned for light industrial (warehouse, manufacturing, aviation-related) near the airport.

Within about 1,000 feet

A Type IV landfill and undeveloped land (PD and AG) to the north; the airport (AP) and undeveloped land to the west; undeveloped AG and ETJ land to the south and east.

Watch for

  • This is staff-initiated zoning tied to annexation under the 2016 agreement. The annexation step itself is not described in this report.
  • I1 allows a broad set of industrial uses by right; there is no site plan or use restriction attached.
  • 0 letters of support, 0 of opposition, and no online comments so far.

Next step

The Commission's recommendation goes to City Council on Nov 3, 2026.
