What Wylie is like to build in
SH 78 is the spine and the industrial ground sits along it and toward the Lake Lavon side. Muddy Creek and the lake drainage decide detention on more sites here than people expect.
Permitting
City of Wylie. Collin County outside city limits. Wylie has annexed steadily, so an address that was county work two years ago may be city work now.
What the ground does
Blackland clay with high plasticity. Deeper beams, more steel, and moisture control around the perimeter on anything conditioned.
