ATTENTION: THE CITY OF MCKINNEY ("CITY") AND THE MCKINNEY COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION ("MCDC") DIRECT THIS NOTICE TO ALL PERSONS WHO RESIDE IN THE TERRITORY OF THE CITY; WHO OWN PROPERTY LOCATED WITHIN THE BOUNDARIES OF THE CITY; WHO ARE TAXPAYERS OF THE CITY; WHO HAVE OR CLAIM A RIGHT, TITLE, OR INTEREST IN ANY PROPERTY OR MONEY TO BE AFFECTED BY A PUBLIC SECURITIES AUTHORIZATION OR THE ISSUANCE OF THE PUBLIC SECURITIES ("INTERESTED PARTIES") AND THE TEXAS ATTORNEY GENERAL; ADVISING THEM OF THEIR RIGHT TO APPEAR FOR TRIAL AND SHOW CAUSE WHY THE PETITIONERS' ORIGINAL PETITION FOR EXPEDITED DECLARATORY JUDGMENT SHOULD NOT BE GRANTED.
Please take notice that on April 23, 2026, the City and MCDC filed an Original Petition for Expedited Declaratory Judgment (the "Petition") pursuant to Chapter 1205 of the Texas Government Code.
In 2025, MCDC issued, sold, and delivered the "McKinney Community Development Corporation Sales Tax Revenue Bonds, Taxable Series 2025," dated April 1, 2025 (the "2025 Revenue Bonds"), in the amount of $30,170,000. The 2025 Revenue Bonds funded improvements to the McKinney National Airport (the "Airport") (e.g., passenger terminal facilities and other airport facilities, streets and roads, taxiways, aprons, and other infrastructure related to the Airport). The Attorney General approved the 2025 Revenue Bonds on April 10, 2025.
On March 3, 2026, the MCDC board approved a resolution authorizing MCDC to issue "McKinney Community Development Corporation Sales Tax Revenue Refunding Bonds, Taxable Series 2026 (TIFIA)" (the "2026 Refunding Bonds"). That same day, the City approved MCDC's proposed bond issuance as required by the Development Corporation Act. The 2026 Refunding Bonds will be issued in the amount of $30 million and will be used for the purpose of refunding the outstanding 2025 Revenue Bonds. The 2026 Refunding Bonds are secured by and payable from the revenues that MCDC receives from the City through the City's levy of a voter-approved sales and use tax. The 2026 Refunding Bonds will not be paid from any property taxes to be raised by the City.
Among other things, the Petition seeks declarations that (i) MCDC has the authority, on the terms set out herein, to issue the 2026 Refunding Bonds; (ii) that MCDC was and is authorized to have taken each public security authorization relating to the 2026 Refunding Bonds; (iii) that the City was and is authorized to have taken each public security authorization relating to the 2026 Refunding Bonds; (iv) that each public security authorization and expenditure of money relating to the 2026 Refunding Bonds was legal; and (v) that MCDC properly introduced and enacted the 2026 Refunding Bonds pursuant to the laws of the State of Texas and the City of McKinney Charter.
A full description of the lawsuit and the relief sought is contained in the City's Petition, In re: McKinney Community Development Corporation Sales Tax Revenue Refunding Bonds, Taxable Series 2026 (TIFIA), Cause No. D-1-GN-26-003109, in the 200th Judicial District Court of Travis County, Texas, and is available for review by all persons, including the Interested Parties.
All Interested Parties and the Honorable Ken Paxton, in his official capacity as Attorney General of the State of Texas, are hereby notified of their right to appear for trial, on May 18, 2026, at 10:00 a.m., in the 200th Judicial District Court of Travis County, Texas, at the Travis County Civil & Family Courts Facility, 1700 Guadalupe St., Austin, Texas 78701, Courtroom 9D (or such other courtroom posted on the courthouse monitors), and show cause why the Petition should not be granted and the Public Securities or the public security authorizations validated and confirmed. Be on further notice that, at trial the Court will proceed to a full and final hearing on the merits of all matters and prayers within the Petition.
