RECOMMENDED CITY COUNCIL ACTION:
• Staff recommends approval of this item.
ITEM SUMMARY:
• Staff is proposing minor amendments to the Comprehensive Plan, including minor amendments to the Master Thoroughfare Plan and corresponding updates to the future land use plan and land use diagrams.
• The primary focus of these amendments is to adjust roadway alignments based on construction, alignment studies, and changes that have occurred over the last year.
• In the coming year, the City of McKinney will continue to review and monitor the progress of the Comprehensive Plan, including progress on the US 380 environmental study that will impact the various transportation and land use components of the comprehensive plan.
PROPOSED AMENDMENTS:
• The Master Thoroughfare Plan illustrates the roadway alignments of built thoroughfares and conceptual alignments of future or planned thoroughfares. At the time that a thoroughfare is built or engineered, it becomes necessary to update the Master Thoroughfare Plan to reflect the engineered or built alignment of the thoroughfare.
• The following are proposed updates to the Master Thoroughfare Plan resulting from recently engineered projects/plans and/or roadway construction.
o Minor alignment adjustments to Unnamed 6, Wilmeth Rd, Taylor Burk Dr, Unnamed 5, to match future plans.
o Reclassification of a segment of Medical Center Drive south of SH 121 to an M4D Minor Arterial Divided (4 lanes) and the newly constructed portion of Elm St. to a M3U Minor Arterial (3 lanes).
o Minor alignment adjustments to Wilmeth Rd., Taylor Burk Dr., Elm St. east of Hardin and south of the MISD stadium to match built conditions.
• The alignment adjustments listed above are also being adjusted on the Future Land Use Plan and Land Use Diagrams.

• Staff has received no comments or phone calls in support of or opposition to this request.
BOARD OR COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
