Temples of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

In a unanimous vote cast last night, the Fairview Town Council denied the Church's application for a conditional use permit to build the McKinney Texas Temple at the proposed height and dimensions. The decision came at the conclusion of a packed four-hour meeting where town officials heard public comment that focused largely around the temple's size. Church representatives may reapply with a new proposal, but a Church spokesperson said, "At this point, we are keeping our options open."

An artistic rendering of the McKinney Texas Temple has been released to the public. The temple will be built on an 8.16-acre property located on Stacy Road in Fairview, next the meetinghouse where the Fairview Ward, Allen 2nd Ward, and Allen 7th Ward meet. Plans call for a two-story building of approximately 44,000 square feet. It will be the third temple in the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex and the eighth in Texas. No groundbreaking date has been announced.
