Review McKinney Development Board's Closed Session Compliance
Why now: MEDC entered closed session on 5/19/2026 to discuss real property and multiple named projects, and related financial items reached Council's agenda by 7/21/2026.
What to do: Obtain the certified agenda from the MEDC's May 19 closed session on real property and 'several named economic development projects' and confirm each project meets the Texas Open Meetings Act §551.087 economic-development exception before any resulting incentive agreement is finalized.
Act before: After MEDC ratifies any resulting incentive agreement in open session
Review McKinney Tax Increment Zone Amendment For Eligibility
Why now: Council adopted two ordinances amending the TIRZ One project and finance plans on 7/21/2026 after MEDC referred them on 5/19/2026.
What to do: Pull the two ordinances amending the Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone Number One project and finance plans that Council adopted July 21 to see whether new project categories or a higher budget cap make your development eligible for reimbursement — this item moved from MEDC referral to Council adoption in the same two-month cycle.
Act before: After TIRZ ordinance effective date
Request McKinney Development Board's Unnamed Closed Session Projects
Why now: MEDC's 5/19/2026 minutes reference an unnamed set of projects discussed behind closed doors that preceded multiple financial items on Council's 7/21/2026 agenda.
What to do: File a public information request for the names of the economic development projects MEDC discussed in its May 19 closed session — the public minutes describe them only as 'several named' projects, and items from that same meeting surfaced on Council's July 21 agenda two months later.
Act before: After records request response (typically 10 business days)
Target McKinney Development Board Before Zone Vote
Why now: Every major financial item on the 7/21/2026 Council agenda originated as an MEDC referral from the 5/19/2026 meeting.
What to do: Approach MEDC board members now, while they're still weighing the projects discussed in the May 19 closed session — the roadway fee waiver, housing tax credit resolution, and TIRZ ordinances all cleared MEDC as referrals before Council rubber-stamped them on July 21, so the MEDC stage is where influence lands.
Act before: After MEDC's next public meeting
