Texas Scorecard By Sydnie Henry May 4, 2026
A new lawsuit alleges the Double R MUD board tried to quietly swap control and annex 400 acres for Islamic EPIC City project during a barely disclosed meeting in a field.Attorney General Ken Paxton has filed a lawsuit against a North Texas municipal utility district and its leadership, accusing them of secretly orchestrating an illegal takeover tied to the controversial East Plano Islamic Center’s EPIC City development.
In a filing announced Monday, Paxton alleges that Double R Municipal Utility District No. 2A of Hunt and Collin Counties violated the Texas Open Meetings Act (TOMA) during a September 12, 2025 meeting in which a new board was installed and major actions were taken without proper public notice.
This new filing is separate from Paxton’s earlier lawsuit targeting the EPIC City–linked MUD board’s qualifications, which resulted in a temporary restraining order and then a temporary injunction that blocked the purported directors from acting and declared their post–September 12 actions void.
