As McKinney Mayor George Fuller approaches the conclusion of his second and final term, he reflects on his tenure and the city’s remarkable growth. Elected in May 2017, Fuller has served the maximum consecutive terms permitted for any McKinney City Council seat and will step down following the May 3 election. ​

Reflecting on Public Service

Throughout his nearly eight years in office, Fuller has been a prominent figure at numerous community events, including the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the East McKinney Learning Garden in late 2024. ​

City Growth and Development

Under Fuller’s leadership, McKinney has experienced significant growth. According to U.S. Census data released in May 2020, McKinney was the fourth fastest-growing large city in the nation between April 2010 and July 2019, with a population increase of 51.9%, reaching 199,177 residents. ​

Looking Ahead

As the city prepares for new leadership, Fuller emphasizes the importance of “purpose-driven leadership” to continue guiding McKinney’s development. The upcoming election on May 3 will determine his successor, with early voting scheduled from April 22 to April 29. ​

Fuller’s reflections highlight the progress McKinney has made during his tenure and set the stage for the city’s future under new leadership.​
