City officials are taking another step in potential construction of a parking garage in downtown McKinney.

What’s happening: McKinney City Council members approved up to $411,500 for a contract with Fishbeck during a March 3 meeting. Under terms of the contract, Fishbeck will provide schematic designs for a parking garage at the corner of Hunt and Kentucky streets in downtown McKinney.

The proposed parking garage is part of an effort to redevelop several city-owned properties in the area. It could accommodate between 330 and 630 parking spaces on up to six levels of parking, according to Fishbeck’s proposal.

The details: The budget amendment and contract approved in March were focused on schematic designs for the project. During a Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone No. 1 board meeting, McKinney Facilities Construction Manager Patricia Jackson said the designs are expected to finish in a few months.

Officials intend to bring back at least three options for consideration, and each option will have an associated cost, Jackson said.

Barrio Tacos is now open in McKinney.

The gist: The restaurant serves customizable tacos, and a variety of queso, guacamole and salsa dips served alongside chips, according to its website. Barrio serves tacos that can be customized with a variety of proteins, toppings, sauces and taco shells.

Lelo’s Coffee Co. is expected to soon offer espresso drinks in McKinney.

The wholesale coffee company owned by husband-and-wife Derek and Sandy Davis will expand its online business to include a brick-and-mortar presence on the north end of the Tupps Brewery property.

The specifics: The business will begin offering Spanish- and Italian-style espresso drinks from a walk-up ordering window inside a repurposed grain silo. The business will also roast coffee on-site, Derek Davis said. A future expansion of the business will include converting an adjacent building into a cafe.

Quote of note: “We're going to be focused on how the coffee tastes, and if we have good coffee, I think that'll bring more people,” co-owner Derek Davis said.

The Dallas Fort Worth International Airport will have new dining options coming to terminals A and D.

During the DFW Airport board of directors meetings, new and amended leases were approved for various concessions.

What’s happening? In Terminal A, a lease with Mitchell Olsen Partners DFW LLC was amended for a quick-serve salad location near Gate A pier for Mad Greens. The restaurant, with four locations in the Austin area, serves salad, bowls and wraps, according to its online menu. The restaurant replaces Salad and Go, which closed all its Texas locations earlier this year, according to previous reporting.

Long story short: There were three changes approved for Terminal D.

A Great American Bakery location will be going in near Gate D34 and will be operated by Java Star Inc. There was a lease assumption from Host Java DFW, which operated The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf at that same location.

Trinity Groves Bar, near Gate D2, will become Chili’s Margarita Bar, and the Trinity Groves Kitchen will be replaced by Chili’s Bar and Grill.
