Developers behind the upcoming Sunset Amphitheater and JW Marriott Resort McKinney Craig Ranch projects are seeking deadline extensions for key milestones.

The gist: McKinney City Council members are considering amendments to economic development agreements for each project at an upcoming meeting scheduled Jan. 6. Both amendments are listed on the council’s consent agenda.

If approved, agreements with developers of both projects would be amended to recognize updated timelines, according to city documents.

The Sunset Amphitheater project, which broke ground in June with completion expected in 2026, is now expected to finish in 2027, according to an updated project schedule.

The JW Marriott Resort hotel, which was originally expected to start construction by Dec. 3, 2026, is now expected to start construction by April 30, 2027

Also on the agenda: Council members are also scheduled to consider funding for a small area plan for parts of SH 5 running through downtown McKinney. The plan would include a “community-driven vision" for redevelopment while identifying challenges and opportunities.

Botanic Life’s store on University Drive in McKinney has closed, according to a post on the business’s Facebook page.

The gist: The business, which opened in March 2022, offered a variety of holistic health products including CBD products, essential oils, supplements, skin products and creams, herbal tea blends, bath salts and more.

Dallas Love Field Airport will be gaining a new restaurant this month, though an opening date has not been determined, said Lauren Rounds, the external communications and marketing manager for the airport. 

A joint restaurant containing IHOP and Applebees will be located on the public side of the terminal, between the Transportation Security Administration screening area and the baggage claim hallway, she said. 

The diner will be where the former Bruegger’s Bagels was located, which closed in August, Rounds said.
