Plano City Council approves new DART funding agreement, rescinds May withdrawal election

PLANO, Texas — Days after Dallas Area Rapid Transit introduced a new funding plan intended to address concerns, Plano City Council has approved the agency's new funding agreement.

With this approval, council members also voted to rescind the May election where voters would consider withdrawing the city from DART membership.

Plano Mayor John Muns said the actions tonight reflect Plano's persistence and compromise.

"Plano pushed for meaningful change, and we achieved it," Muns said in a statement. "This agreement guarantees a minimum funding return and creates a stronger framework moving forward. While it is not everything we initially proposed, it represents real progress for our community and the region."
