McKinney approves $6.6 million in police facility renovations
McKinney approved $6.6 million in police-facility work, including a new support building at the gun range and Phase VI renovations at the Public Safety Building.
McKinney is spending $6.6 million to repair and rework the police spaces at 2200 Taylor Burk Drive, where the city is turning the old public-safety complex into a police-only headquarters while adding new support space at the gun range. The council approved up to $5.48 million for Phase VI renovations to the Public Safety Building and another $1.12 million for police gun range improvements and a storage and restroom building.
The move matters because the city is not simply patching walls and replacing equipment. It is investing in the physical backbone of day-to-day policing, from headquarters operations to training and storage, as McKinney keeps growing and public-safety demands keep rising. The renovation is part of the city’s effort to make the 2200 Taylor Burk Drive complex function as a headquarters exclusively for the McKinney Police Department after the fire department relocated to its own campus.
City Manager Paul Grimes was authorized to execute guaranteed maximum prices with Crossland Construction Company Inc. after the firm was selected through the city’s request-for-qualifications process. McKinney issued that RFQ on Sept. 12, 2025, and received 15 qualification statements. The city had already approved a $10,000 preconstruction CMAR services agreement with Crossland on Nov. 18, 2025, along with a 3.5% construction services fee, laying the groundwork for the larger renovation package now moving ahead.
The gun range work includes a storage and restroom building, a small but telling addition that shows the city is trying to modernize both the training and support functions behind police operations. Separate records from the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation show earlier gun-range-related restroom work at Interchange Way, suggesting McKinney has been building out the site in stages rather than starting from scratch.
The scale of the spending stands out in a city whose population was estimated at 237,130 on Jan. 1, 2026, by the city and 236,001 on July 1, 2025, by the U.S. Census Bureau. McKinney also recently opened its new $53 million Fire Department Headquarters Campus at 2100 Taylor Burk Drive, a reminder that the city is sequencing major public-safety investments across departments as it tries to keep aging facilities aligned with a fast-expanding community.
