Celina city officials want to convert all downtown streets to concrete in the next 10-15 years.

In order to accomplish that goal, officials will have to divert resources to downtown street reconstruction by pushing back other infrastructure projects.

What they’re saying: Despite the resources required to reconstruct downtown streets within 15 years, council members agreed that the effort was necessary.

“It was before the '60s that all these roads were redone,” Deputy Mayor Pro Tem Brandon Grumbles said. “So it’s time.”

Celina Blooms and Gifts is now open near downtown Celina, a representative confirmed.

What you need to know: Owner Kambra Bacon, who opened Prosper Blooms and Gifts in 2010, is expanding the business with the new location just off the square. The shop soft-opened in early February ahead of Valentine’s Day.

One more thing: The store offers floral arrangements, gifts, clothing, candles and sweets, with both pre-designed and custom orders available online and in person.

Renovations are continuing at one of the Clubs of Stonebridge Ranch’s golf courses as the project enters its final phase in 2026.

The gist: Officials from Invited Clubs announced in February that the final phase of renovation had started at The Hills Golf Course. This is the third and final phase of renovations planned at the course and will focus on Holes 1-9, according to the course website. The project aims to “reimagine” the course while improving the fairways and updating its irrigation system.

Renovations are being led by World Golf Hall of Famer Lanny Wadkins and golf course designer Kurt Bowman. The course will be closed during renovations though members will have access to other courses offered at Clubs, a media representative said. Officials are expecting to reopen the course in the fourth quarter of 2026.
