Safety & Services Component

Multiple city services increase quality of life for Plano citizens and preserve property values within the community. In many areas of the city, aging buildings have created property maintenance issues and reconstruction of older public facilities and infrastructure is required. Plano must proactively manage the transition to a mature community by maintaining and enhancing the city’s appearance for health, safety, and economic stability. 

Today, Plano’s public safety efforts are consistently recognized on national, state, and local levels. The city’s reputation as a safe and secure community is a result of a successful, cooperative relationship between Fire-Rescue, Police, 911/Public Safety Communications, and Emergency Management. Plano will enhance its present high-quality public safety initiatives to lower crime rates, sustain quality fire protection, and better prepare the public and city staff during emergencies.
