In what they’re calling a great development for the city, Mission held a groundbreaking ceremony Tuesday for a new gated community that will house 99 new families and several new businesses.

The Mirabelle subdivision, located on the corner of Shary Road and Business 83, has space for 99 residential lots in the back and will have commercial lots at the entrance of the subdivision, city Manager Randy Perez said.

“It’s a great development for us, we’re anticipating 99 new families to come to the city of Mission,” Perez said. “With the expected growth in that area, it’s proof of Mission progressing in growth when we have subdivisions like these being developed.”

Shavi Mahtani, president at Domain Development Corp., said the 30-acre area will bring in $35M of residential construction, making this subdivision a substantial development.

Perez also noted that the intersection where the Mirabelle Subdivision will be built is one of the city’s busiest with a high volume of traffic occurring there every day.

“It’ll be a major development once we build all those homes as we wait to see those 99 homes in the future,” Perez said.
