Petition: Approve the Rezoning of PUD 6 for a Destination Resort and New Home for the Dallas Mavericks

Who is Impacted?

The residents of Irving, Texas, and the entire Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex stand to benefit immensely from this transformative project. Approving the rezoning of PUD 6 will pave the way for a world-class destination resort & a new home for the Dallas Mavericks. This development will generate thousands of well-paying jobs, boost tourism, and revitalize local businesses. More importantly, it will bring in critical tax revenue to support schools, public services, and infrastructure improvements that directly enhance the quality of life for our community. Without this project, Irving risks falling behind in economic growth while neighboring states continue to attract Texas dollars.

What is at Stake?

If this rezoning is rejected, Irving will lose an opportunity to secure its place as a premier destination for sports, entertainment, and tourism. Currently, Texas residents spend billions of dollars on entertainment in neighboring states like Louisiana, Oklahoma, and New Mexico—funds that could instead be invested in our local economy to benefit Texas families. No matter what happens in Austin, this project remains a win for Irving: a world-class resort and arena that will bring year-round tourism and economic activity. On the other hand, if we delay or deny this rezoning, the Dallas Mavericks could move elsewhere, taking with them the jobs and revenue that would have supported our community. Other Texas cities will compete for this opportunity, and Irving may never get another chance like this.

Why is Now the Time to Act?

This is a once-in-a-generation opportunity for Irving, and we cannot afford to wait. Rezoning now means Irving is positioned for immediate and future success.  This development will attract major events, large conventions, international tourists, and world-class entertainment, all of which will stimulate our economy. The 183 corridor will be revitalized, creating new businesses, job opportunities, and infrastructure improvements that benefit every resident. The time to act is now—let’s embrace progress, strengthen our economy, and build a better future for Irving. Sign this petition and urge our leaders to approve the rezoning of PUD 6!
