A lot of this is a tacit attempt to control Muslim municipal populations be restricting how they govern themselves locally.

So you can step in at the state (maybe federal, if Chip Roy gets his way) level and announce this mayor or judge or city council is illegitimate because the leadership isn't Christian.

Why would they choose Texas for their EPIC city? Is north of Dallas just an area with an existing Muslim population or financially smart area?

Probably an existing muslim population. I believe I remember hearing that the largest muslim community in the u.s. was in texas a few years ago. Maybe near houston, I think.
