HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS MONTH
FROM MICHAEL: As the metroplex has continued to grow, Plano has started to become a hub for tech companies. With several large tech companies—including a pair of electric vehicle charging companies—expanding their footprints in the area, Plano was one of the fastest growing cities for tech jobs in the country over the last few years. That’s not even mentioning the countless tech startups that have made Plano their home. Check out our front-page story to read more about the growth that has made Plano a top 20 “tech hub” in the United States. Also turn to Page 13 to see a roundup all of the local election results from May 6. Plano City Council, the Plano ISD board of trustees and the Collin College board of trustees make decisions that directly eect Plano residents, so make sure to learn about all of the new and familiar faces serving the community. Michael Crouchley, EDITOR
