To amend Section 12-101, Prohibited on certain streets at all times, of Article V, Stopping, Standing and Parking, of Chapter 12, Motor Vehicles and Traffic, of the City of Plano Code of Ordinances to establish no parking zones along Blackwood Drive, within the city limits of the City of Plano; and providing a penalty clause, a repealer clause, a severability clause, a savings clause, a publication clause, and an effective date. Adopted Ordinance No. 2025-6-21

Blackwood Drive is a twenty-six (26) foot wide entrance street to Preston View subdivision.

It was brought to the Transportation Engineering Division staff’s attention that there are no parking signs posted on both sides of the street between Lorimar Drive and Bear Run Drive without an ordinance.

The Preston View Homeowners Association Board voted in favor of retaining the existing parking restriction on Blackwood Drive to ensure safe ingress and egress for their residents and their guests.

The Transportation Engineering Division recommends an amendment to the code of ordinances to codify the existing parking restriction on Blackwood Drive.

This item has no immediate financial impact; however, some revenue may be collected as fines resulting from violation of this ordinance. The exact change in revenue is indeterminable and will have minimal impact on the General Fund budget.

Approval of this item supports the City's Strategic Plan Critical Success Factors of Safe, Vibrant Neighborhoods and Multi-Modal Transportation and Mobility Solutions.
