McKinney Green
Throughout its history, McKinney has been
both proud of its beautiful natural setting and concerned with
preserving it. McKinney Green is a city-wide undertaking to research
Green practices in McKinney, surrounding cities and across the country.
Together with the Chamber of Commerce, the city selected HDR
Engineering, Inc. to help kick-start the program, which has a goal to
determine the best environmentally friendly atmosphere for
our city.
McKinney Green Framework for Sustainable Future
Many private businesses were already leading the Green movement in the
city. McKinney Green selected both business and community leaders to
form an advisory committee to look at the research, gather opinions and
ultimately educate city leaders and what ‘Green’ means for McKinney.
Green Committee
The first meeting of the advisory committee resulted in idea sharing
about how Green McKinney is, and how Green we want to be.
