Plano voters approved $220.6 million in bonds for long-term infrastructure projects throughout the city, but did not sign off on funding to restore the historic Collinwood House, one of Plano's oldest buildings.
The bulk of the approved funding will go toward streets, park investments and public safety facilities.
Plano officials had previously said that if the Collinwood House proposition did not pass, the city would likely demolish the building southeast of Windhaven Parkway and Willowbend Drive.
