To amend Sections 12-101, Prohibited on certain streets at all times and 12-102.6, No parking during specified periods, of Article V, Stopping, Standing and Parking, of Chapter 12, Motor Vehicles and Traffic, of the City of Plano Code of Ordinances to establish a no parking any time zone along a section of the south side of Tradition Trail, 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 2025-9-4

Tradition Trail is a thirty-six (36) foot wide collector street located within the Light Industrial and Retail/General Office zoning districts.

The City of Plano Code of Ordinances prohibits on-street parking along both sides of Tradition Trail between the hours of 9 p.m. and 6 a.m.

The North Texas Tollway Authority (“NTTA”) Maintenance Service Center is located on the southeast corner of the Tradition Trail and Ohio Drive intersection.  A representative from NTTA reported that on-street parking by one of their driveways is blocking the view of oncoming traffic during their business hours.

The Transportation Engineering Division of the City of Plano evaluated the location and recommends an amendment to the Code of Ordinances to repeal the 9 p.m. - 6 a.m. parking restriction by the driveway and establish it as a no parking any time zone.

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 Factor of Multi-Modal Transportation and Mobility Solutions.
