McKinney Concentrates on Roads

Real Estate News TV

Hey there, McKinney. You guys need some more roads, and I think we’re going to get them that Shana Acquisto and she’s super excited about new roads, aren’t you? I am so excited. And I always love a great infrastructure project. So let’s go ahead and talk about it. We have an article to share. And we’ll get to it. So tell me, Shana. So, you know, McKinney is growing and I think that they’re really putting in a lot of effort and thought into making it better than maybe other cities like they’re trying to doing all of this to attract businesses and show them that, hey, it’s easy to get from A to B and they’re really investing in that. So I think they might have been a little behind the curve. I think they were they were behind the curve for a change for many reasons. They have a lot of land in their property or within the city. And that makes it that makes it a little difficult. And on a sidebar note, I want you guys, if you see right here, if you stop for a second on the car, there’s a link to the city council meeting that happened in June. I encourage you guys, wherever you live, whatever city that you live in, is to check the agendas every month when they have a city council meeting and see what’s on. There could be things that directly affect where you live, maybe some things being developed behind your neighborhood, or you see some type of change or topic of interest. And that way you keep up, you know, you keep up with what’s happening in your community, but you can always find it there. That’s where it starts. Everything has to go through the approval of the city council. So I think it’s really good to at the very least just glance through the agendas each time. Yeah. So McKinney has partnered with some of their different local places and they plan on contributing up to 150, 150 to $300 million for new roads. And it doesn’t say the exact time frame for that, but they’re trying and they’re making a commitment to roads. And I think that’s important. Right. Because as you put those through streets in. Yeah, then you’re going to do better off. And the upkeep I mean, the upkeep of these roads, too, I was driving, I don’t know when it was, but I was driving out in I think it was Irving like out in that area and it was like, man, the roads are so bad, potholes. And I don’t know, I think it makes a difference. Oh, no, it definitely does. So Omaha did show me the time frame. It looks like it’s a what is it, a 15 year time frame to put this money to work. And it looks like 150 to $300 million. So we’re looking at $10 Million a year ish. That’s going to go towards new roads. And that’s great. You know, anytime you can get those totally all for it. So interesting to see where and it’ll definitely help growth for sure. Definitely. And attract businesses. It does. There you go. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/realestatenewstv/message
