McAllen City Commission Workshop: May 26, 2026

The City of McAllen held a workshop meeting on May 26, 2026, focusing primarily on updates to the Unified Development Code (UDC) and city-wide rezoning efforts. City planners provided detailed explanations of zoning changes, including setbacks, parking requirements, and permitted uses across residential and commercial zones. They discussed the timeline for rezoning approximately 53,485 parcels, estimating a 3 to 4 year process involving site visits and compliance checks. The workshop also highlighted improvements in the UDC's user-friendliness and online accessibility for public reference. No formal votes or contract awards were made during this session, but the discussion informs future land use planning and development policies that could impact procurement and development projects in McAllen.
