Could Plano be sitting on an area that was once an ancient ocean?

Construction crews found fossils while doing foundation work at the site of what will become the newest Plano Police Substation at the northwest intersection of McDermott Road and Robinson Road.

The attached photo shows some of the fossils in a single 50 pound rock. The foundation has been poured.

Plano City Council members approved the $10-million substation in February. The newly approved McDermott substation will house sector D officers, the traffic unit and other departments on the city’s west side.
