Major medical providers Baylor, Scott and White have requested a rezoning of 47+ acres in Frisco. According to the BS&E website, “As the largest not-for-profit healthcare system in Texas and one of the largest in the United States, Baylor Scott & White Health was born from the 2013 combination of Baylor Health Care System and Scott & White Healthcare. Today, Baylor Scott & White includes 52 hospitals, more than 800 patient care sites, more than 7,300 active physicians, over 49,000 employees and the Scott & White Health Plan.”
What’s in the Rezoning?
According to an article in FriscoEnterprise, Tuesday’s City of Frisco Planning & Rezoning Commission meeting, “the board was to consider a request from Baylor Scott & White Health to rezone 47.4-plus acres on the northeast corner of Dallas Parkway and PGA Parkway from retail and industrial to Office-2, and to amend the zoning ordinance.”
Healthy Possibilities
Could this mean an enlargement of the medical services Baylor, Scott & White provides to Frisco? According to the article, “The health system is requesting to rezone the property to Office-2, which can accommodate a variety of mid-and high-rise office developments providing for professional, financial, medical and similar services for local residents; corporate offices; and major employment centers; as well as limited retail establishments, when incidental to main uses.”
All Systems Go
With its prime location, residents will only benefit from the expansion. The article concludes, “Office-2 zoning is appropriate for this property due to its location at Dallas North Tollway and PGA Parkway intersection. Further, Office-2 zoning allows for unlimited height but requires greater setbacks when adjacent to single-family, two-family or patio home residential…The recommendation before Tuesday night’s meeting was to approve the zoning change to Office-2.”
