Good morning, Plano. Here's your local news at a glance for Saturday, the 24th of May.

ACCIDENTS NEWS

  • A driver died when their vehicle left West Plano Parkway and overturned in a creek Friday, May 23 — police said.  Plano Star Courier

EDUCATION NEWS

  • The Senate passed HB 6 that gives educators more flexibility by replacing automatic off-campus removals for vaping with in-school suspensions that are reviewed regularly. Lawmakers also revised the bill to require documented reviews before suspending young children — a measure added after local superintendents discussed the issue — and House members must approve the changes before the governor signs it.  The Dallas Morning News

GOVERNMENT NEWS

  • A proposed housing development called EPIC City is under federal and state probe for possible religious discrimination and fair housing violations, even though its construction has not started. The 402-acre project will include a mosque, homes, a school, and other community facilities, and its delay may limit housing options for Plano’s growing Muslim community—state investigators are reviewing the plans.  KERA

HEALTH NEWS

  • Texas officials urged Plano residents and North Texas visitors to follow strict water safety practices this Memorial Day weekend to prevent drownings and accidents. They recommend wearing life jackets on boats, swimming only in designated areas, and avoiding alcohol—especially when children are nearby.  The Dallas Morning News
