M. Nathan Barbera, a member of the DART Board of Directors, began a two-year term as the Secretary of the DART Board this past October. The cities of Plano and Farmers Branch appointed Barbera to the board in 2022.
Nathan is a partner at Albin Oldner Law PLLC. He has over 20 years’ experience as a civil litigation attorney representing insurance companies, policy holders, restaurants, corporations, employers, and various business entities.
In addition to the DART Board, Nathan volunteers as a member of the Medical City Plano Community Advisory Council and recently was the chair of the Athletics Committee of the Plano ISD Future Forward Task Force. He is the past chair of the City of Plano Planning & Zoning Commission, and a past member of numerous boards and commissions for organizations serving Plano and Collin County.
Barbera said he wanted to serve on the DART Board to help bring the Silver Line to completion, improve safety and security on DART’s trains and buses, and modernize the entire DART System. He further hopes to bring equity to Board of Directors membership and promote an equitable distribution of DART’s tax revenue.
We appreciate the knowledge and love of Plano that Nathan brings to his service on the DART Board.
