A request to rezone about 620 acres from agriculture to allow for a single-family residential, multifamily residential and commercial uses for a residential community called Painted Tree was approved by the McKinney Planning & Zoning Commission at its Dec. 8 meeting.
The intention of the rezoning is to create a large-scale master-planned community, Tom Woliver, president and founder of Oxland Group LLC, stated in his letter of intent to the commission. The intention of the zoning request was to receive approval for the allowed uses at the property, not for the exact development of the site plans, which the city would review in a public meeting, staff said.
If approved, the development would ultimately include more than 1,000 acres with 3,400 residences, Woliver said in a September interview with Community Impact Newspaper.
Painted Tree will be located north of US 380 near Lake Forest Boulevard, offering houses ranging from detached townhomes and cottages to larger family homes and luxury estates.
