Plano ISD TIRZ No. 6 Agreement
At a glance
- Creation: the zone itself, Reinvestment Zone Number Six, was created 8-0 on June 8, 2026 at a public hearing (Regular Item 1). It sits alongside Centennial Waterfall Willow Bend Economic Development Agreement and the arena resolution in Willow Bend Arena Project.
Based on uploaded (human-made) captions; some stretches are fragmentary and dollar figures are uncertain.
- What: an interlocal agreement for Plano ISD's participation in Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone No. 6, which feeds arena financing.
- Where it stands: pulled from the consent agenda on 2026-10-12 after a resident spoke against it; approved on a motion and second (vote count not stated in the captions).
- Next: financing master agreement and the November 3 vote on venue taxes.
Discussion
- Director of Special Projects Peter Bronson and Doug McDonald were available for questions; no presentation.
- Opposing resident argued the agreement redirects school-related revenue to the arena. See Willow Bend Arena Financing.
