City leaders in McKinney have taken the first step toward developing a new entertainment amenity in the Collin County seat.
McKinney City Council on April 7 authorized the city manager to negotiate an agreement with Lubbock-based architecture and engineering firm Parkhill, Smith & Cooper Inc. to spearhead development of a 300-acre city-owned site at Bloomdale Road and Taylor Burke Drive into a sports and entertainment complex.
The resolution to negotiate a letter of intent passed unanimously alongside an agreement to pay Parkhill $144,850 for providing planning and engineering services for a feasibility study on a proposed multigenerational recreation center, according to city documents.
If negotiations are successful, a final agreement could be brought to the council for approval.

Parkhill’s feasibility study will include visioning, local recreation market analysis, community engagement, architectural programming, conceptual design and development of a project budget and implementation timeline.
