Frisco mayor responds to concerns about Universal
that Universal Parks & Resorts bought a site for a theme park in Frisco along the Dallas North Tollway, some residents are apprehensive.
Residents were also concerned about crime, human trafficking, the park’s business model, what type of employees the park will attract, city transparency on the deal, Frisco turning into “Arlington 2.0,” and environmental impacts. Laura Countryman said Frisco’s superb quality of life is endangered by “bringing in theme parks to encroach on what’s essentially a bedroom community.”
The mayor said part of the deal is to also confirm there cannot be a bait and switch, saying the park is for children but then a decade later roller coasters come in and then it’s something completely different. Rottenberg also talked about what she said was “the clandestine nature of the deal compared to other deals between Fields and the city.”
