Top issues during term (20)
FY 2026-2027 EDC budget
Flat tax rate proposed, but expect possible new or higher fees as cost recovery gets tightened.
Bond 2027 potential projects
Anything above $50 million in the bond package would require a property tax rate increase.
Economic development incentives for BH Invesco, LLC
Incentive terms were discussed in closed session and aren't public, so the dollar impact isn't known yet.
Neighborhood streets package
A $14 million proposition could be sized up or down; the worst-rated streets get fixed first.
Parks Master Plan progress
The MDD board set aside $250,000 for the master plan — a big jump from the $25,000 spent in 2010.
Blackburn/Ingram Road four-lane vs. two-lane
$20 million for a rebuild-only option versus about $38 million for a full widening — a big chunk of a $55.5 million budget.
Fire Station 1, Fire Station 2, and public safety building upgrades
Preliminary estimates range from about $6.1 million to $11.8 million depending on scope and escalation.
Pleasant Valley Road extension
Roughly $19 million, not including a future traffic signal at Harmony Hill.
Sachse Farmers Market and 5th Street District activation
The plan guides budget decisions through 2032; Fifth Street has already cost over $10 million.
Industrial Drive reconstruction design
Option 2 would cost roughly $200,000 more than the standard design.
Certificates of obligation for Merritt Road and Service Center
$7 million added to the project cost, covered by previously approved debt.
Rising employee health insurance costs
Roughly $603,000 more from the city for medical coverage alone next year.
Flock camera records and transparency
The grant is worth about $1,900 with an unknown city share under the Flock contract.
West Creek Lane and Woodbridge Parkway reconstruction
Full rebuild is estimated at $12.2 million; a targeted panel-replacement approach could cost $3-5 million.
Health and Sanitation Code amendments including swimming pool rules
Violations could bring fines up to $2,000; the ordinance itself has no stated fiscal impact.
2026 Collin County Tax Roll acceptance
Formal acceptance of the tax roll underpinning the city's property tax revenue.
Williford Road construction timeline
$6,109,413.00 in construction spending for the Williford Road project.
Michael J. Felix Community Center programs
Cost recovery and master fee schedule changes
Changes what residents pay for refuse service; specific new amounts weren't discussed on the recording.
14.52-Acre Rezoning to Residential-39 (R-39)
Property values and future tax revenues may shift based on the new R-39 residential designation.
