George Miller, Vice President of the Lubbock Industrial
Development Corporation, appeared toe present the
Corporation request that the City Council approve the
issuance of bonds for Lubbock Hotel Associates, Ltd. The
bond issue is proposed to be five and one-half million
dollars to renovate the Hilton Inn at 505 Avenue Q.
Mr. Miller stated further that City Council passed a
Resolution July 16, 1984 outlining the areas that the
City Council designated as blighted or economically
depressed areas, and that the Hilton Inn lies within the
economically depressed areas outlined. He said that.
Council had also requested that the Texas Economic
Development Commission approve commercial projects within
the blighted area and specifically mentioned hotels,
motels or related facilities as acceptable projects.
City Manager Larry Cunningham stated that City Council
also passed a Resolution on October 5, 1984 that sets out
criteria to be used by the Lubbock Industrial Corporation
and Lubbock City Council in considering applications for
industrial development bonds. This Resolution was passed
to insure that the bond funds be used for their original"
intent --the creation of jobs. The Lubbock Industrial
Development Corporation did not complete this analysis
because they were under the impression that the Council
passed this Resolution because of legislation that might
limit the availability of Industrial Revenue Bond money
for the City of Lubbock. Apparently, this law was never
enacted and they did not see the need to rate future bond
applications. Instead of placing caps on each individual
city, the State of Texas is approving applications on a
first come first serve basis. The Lubbock Industrial
Development Corporation believed that since this was the
case, the City Council did not intend to have the board
rate these projects.
Motion was made by Councilwoman Baker, seconded by Mayor
Pro Tem Carpenter adopting Resolution #2255 and
instructing the Lubbock Industrial Development
Corporation Board to submit completed rating applications
on this request. Motion carried: 7 Yeas; 0 Nays.

At the last City Council meeting, the City Council
approved a new rate for Southwestern Public Service that
varied slightly from the rate that the City Council had
approved for Lubbock Power and Light.
Jake Webb, representing Southwestern Public Service,
stated that on February 14, 1986 SPS filed the following
tariffs: 1011.2--Experimental Residential Tariff Payment
Discount Rider; 2011.2--Late Payment Rider; 3113.1--
Church Service; 6511 Public and Parochial School, which
would make SPS competitive with LP&L Tariff approved by
Council on February 13. Mr. Webb went on to state and on
February 21 SPS filed an addendum to #1101.2 concerning
the 5% late -pay penalty for residential customers, now
pending in court system.
Mr. Webb requested further that Council waive the 35-day
waiting period since this is not a major rate change
request.
Motion was made by Mayor Pro Tem Carpenter, seconded by
Councilman Nash authorizing rate adjustment requests as
set out above. Motion carried: 7 Yeas; 0 Nays.

(10.) ORDINANCE #8893--ZONE CASE #2554: (34th Street and Wausau
Avenue). Hold a Public Hearing on the request of Harold
P. Brown, Jr. for Southwest Prestressed Concrete, Inc.
for a change of zoning from T to M-2 under provisions of
Section 29-29 of the Code of Ordinances of the City of
Lubbock, on a tract of land out of Section 39, Block A-K,
Lubbock County, Texas.
L �(:n►[
ORDINANCE NO. 8893
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ZONING ORDINANCE NO. 7084 AND THE OFFICIAL MAP
OF THE CITY OF LUBBOCK SO AS TO MAKE THE FOLLOWING CHANGES: ZONE CASE NO.
2554; A CHANGE OF ZONING FROM T TO M-2 ZONING DISTRICT, LIMITED TO: 1)
CONCRETE PRODUCTS MANUFACTURING AND 2) USES UNCONDITIONALLY PERMITTED IN
THE M-1 ZONING DISTRICT, UNDER PROVISIONS OF SECTION 29-29 OF THE CODE OF
ORDINANCES OF THE CITY OF LUBBOCK, ON A TRACT OF AND OUT OF SECTION 39,
BLOCK A-K, LUBBOCK COUNTY, TEXAS; SUBJECT TO CONDITIONS; PROVIDING FOR A
PENALTY AS PROVIDED FOR IN SECTION 29-31(a) OF THE ZONING ORDINANCE;
PROVIDING A SAVINGS CLAUSE AND PROVIDING FOR PUBLICATION.
Harold P. Brown, Jr., representing Southwest Pre -stressed
Concrete, Inc., appeared to speak in favor of this
request.
No one appeared in opposition.
Assistant City Manager Jim Bertram reported that this
case is for zoning on a concrete product manufacturing
plant that is currently zoned "T" by virtue of the recent
West Lubbock annexation. The use is legal non-
conforming, but the owners want to make it a legal use by
establishing appropriate zoning, so that in the future
any renovation or expansion project would not have to go
to the Zoning Board of Adjustment to expand a legal
non -conforming use. The adjacent land use relationships
are as follows:
North - Vacant R-1 zoning
South - Vacant T zoning in an IDP policy area
East - Vacant R-1 zoning
West - Vacant R-1 zoning in an IDP policy area
Mr. Bertram said that this case is not consistent with
the recently approved West Lubbock Land Use Plan nor is
it consistent with the 2005 Goals Committee's work. The
one issue that kept surfacing as this request was
reviewed was the notation for "upgrading the image of
land uses along our entry corridors" as per the Committee
2005 Goals statement. This Goals statement is supported
by the recently approved Land Use Plan for this area when
the Planning and Zoning Commission recommended to the
City Council that the area be designated IDP or indus-
trial park development. The IDP designation is representa-
tive of the "upgraded" image because it contains set-
backs, landscaping, parking, and sometimes design
features that are less akin to just wide open roll -your -
own industrial development. But as a practical matter,
the existing land use is not going to go away and they
feel they are entitled to be accommodated by virtue of
having been annexed just a few months ago.
Mr. Bertram went on to report that even though the
existing land use is not any more or less obtrusive than
several of the other land uses in the immediate vicinity,
it would still be a violation of the Land Use Plan to
recommend an open M-2 zoning district in this area. He
said Staff was not opposed to the use, but more opposed
to the idea of violating the Land Use Plan which repre-
sents the first effort toward trying to substantiate or
give credence to the Committee 2005 Goals Statement.
The Planning Commission, after exploring several alter-
natives, approved the case with the following conditions:
a. The zoning shall be M-2 limited to concrete
products manufacturing; and
b. All M-1 uses.
The Staff was reluctant to recommend heavy industrial
zoning in this newly annexed area; however, they were not
totally in disagreement with P&Z's position.
Motion was made by Councilwoman Baker, seconded by
Councilman Brown passing on first reading Ordinance #8893
as recommended by the Planning and Zoning Commission and

LUBBOCK, ENTITLED "ZONING," BY ADDING TO SECTION 29-3 A DEFINITION FOR
"GAME ROOM, POOL HALL OR BILLIARD PARLOR;" BY PERMITTING FIVE OR LESS
COIN -OPERATED MACHINES AS AN INCIDENTAL USE IN THE "CA" AND "C-2A" ZONING
DISTRICT; PROVIDING FOR A PENALTY; PROVIDING A SAVINGS CLAUSE AND PROVIDING
FOR PUBLICATION.
Assistant City Manager Jim Bertram reported that prior
to 1975, all of the uses mentioned were allowed in a C-2
district. In 1975, these uses were restricted to C-4
districts; however, definitions were never included in
the Zoning Ordinance. This Ordinance puts the defini-
tions in writing and allows these types of machines (5 or
less coin -operated machines) in "C-A" and "C-2A" dis-
tricts as an incidental use.
The Planning Commission approved this request and the
Staff recommended that the City Council uphold the
Planning Commission.
No one appeared in opposition to this request.
Motion was made by Councilman Brown, seconded by
Councilwoman Baker passing on first reading Ordinance
#8894 as recommended by City Staff and the Planning and
Zoning Commission. Motion carried: 7 Yeas; 0 Nays.

Fees for the Health Department.
RESOLUTION #2257
RFSni 11TrnN
WHEREAS, the City of Lubbock has been notified by the Texas Department
of Health that all local health departments, including the City of Lubbock,
must begin charging fees for clinical health services; and
WHEREAS, all such fees must be utilized in the conduct of the program
generating such fees or else deducted from the state contract; and
WHEREAS, the City Health Board has recommended a fee schedule for such
services.to the City Council ,NOW -THEREFORE:
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LUBBOCK:
THAT the schedule of fees attached hereto as Exhibit A shall be
charged by the City Health Department for the named services in accordance
with the rules of the Texas Department of Health and any contract between
the City and the Texas Department of Health dealing with such services.
Such schedule of services and fees may be modified annually upon recom-
mendation of the City Health Board.
Passed by the City Council this 27th day of February, 1986.

Greg Garrison, Chairman of the Board of Health, presented
recommendations to the Council regarding Clinical Service
Fees for the Health Department. He stated that a new
State law requires that the City of Lubbock Health
Department charge fees for personal health care effective
January 1, 1986. This includes assessing a fee to
patients of the various clinics such as maternity,
family planning, pediatrics, immunizations, venereal
disease, and dental clinics. The State Health Department
is requiring that the City of Lubbock maintain records on
these clients, their ability to pay, and the cost of
delivering services to these patients. The City must use
these funds obtained to offset the expenses related to
providing services. These fees will offset the decrease
in assistance that the Health Department currently
receives from the State Health Department. Mr. Garrison
pointed out that the rules specifically state that no one
will be denied services due to an inability to pay the
fees.
The following Fee schedule was recommended, and would
establish an Administrative Fee (on an annual basis) for
completing the initial case history, examination, and
opening up the case file; after that, the client would be
assessed a fee per visit.

*Total income is assuming that all individuals
receiving care at the Health Department can pay the
assessed fees.
If all fees were collected from each patient visiting the
clinic, the total possible income for the entire fiscal
year is projected at $165,655. The income from the
Administrative Fee represents about 61% of the total
possible income. The fees assessed will offset a nominal
percentage of the total cost of providing services, but
will allow the City to recover the cost of keeping
records on the clients, collecting the fees, and of
supplies used in patient care. The fees will be assessed
on at least an annual basis by the Health Department
staff and the Director of Finance and changes will be
made as necessary.
The Board of Health reviewed the recommendation for the
fees on Friday, February 14 and 'is recommended
City Council approval of the fee structure.
Motion was made by Councilwoman Baker, seconded by
Councilwoman Trejo authorizing the recommended Fee
Schedule recommended by the Board of Health and City
Staff. Motion carried: 7 Yeas; 0 Nays.

February 27, 1986
103
AN ORDINANCE ABANDONING AND CLOSING A PORTION OF 6TH STREET BETWEEN
UNIVERSITY AVENUE AND BOSTON AVENUE IN THE CITY OF LUBBOCK, LUBBOCK COUNTY,
TEXAS, AND MORE PARTICULARLY DESCRIBED IN THE BODY OF THIS ORDINANCE;
DIRECTING THE CITY ENGINEER TO MARK THE OFFICIAL MAPS OF THE CITY TO
REFLECT SAID ABANDONING AND CLOSING; PROVIDING FOR A SAVINGS CLAUSE; AND
PROVIDING FOR PUBLICATION.
Bob Bray, on behalf of the Texas Tech Board of Regents,
requested closure of this street to achieve a con-
nection between the new athletic complex building and the
Texas Tech football stadium. A primary point of concern
on this request is the issue of adequate access to the
Auditorium/Coliseum from University Avenue.
1. If 6th Street is closed and another opening is not
provided at 8th Street (with center turning move-
ments) traffic bound for the Auditorium/ Coliseum
will be forced to enter the campus at Broadway or be
diverted to 4th Street.
2. If turning movements are provided at 8th Street, it
will probably require moving the traffic signal from
6th and University to 8th and University.
3. The median at University and 8th Street will have to
be modified for center turn lanes and the existing
right -turn lanes onto 8th Street must either be
converted to through lanes, or additional right-of-
way will be needed from Texas Tech for new right -
turn lanes.
4. Depending on the final design, existing LP&L light
poles and 2 storm sewer inlets must be modified.
This issue was discussed on February 18, 1986 with the
Civic Centers Board. It was the unanimous decision of
the Board to:
a. Support Texas Tech in its efforts to beautify the
north end of the Campus,
b. Support the closure of 6th Street if a median break
with turn lanes and a traffic signal can be in-
stalled at the intersection of 8th and University
Avenue.
Staff advised that if Council were to grant tentative
approval, it should be with the condition that a center
turn lane modification must be made at 8th and
University, together with street light and traffic signal
modifications, and that all costs associated with this
project be paid by Texas Tech University.
When University Avenue, from 19th-4th Street was modified
in 1981, it was done according to a Lease Agreement
between Texas Tech and the City of Lubbock, authorized by
Resolution #770. Since that time, Texas Tech has
modified University Avenue with new turn lanes at 8th
Street. If the median is modified with a widening at 8th
Street, the existing Agreement should be updated.
Motion was made by Councilman Carpenter, seconded by
Councilwoman Trejo passing on first reading Ordinance
#8895 closing 6th Street and requesting that Texas Tech
University participate in the closing costs and the
development of 8th Street opening at a 50% participation
for the City and 50% for Texas Tech. The motion further
stipulated that the arrangements for funding of street
modifications as set out in Alternative "B" presented to
Council by Staff, be considered and worked out before
second reading by City Council. Motion carried: 7 Yeas;
0 Nays.

The Lubbock Police Department currently works, to a
limited degree, with State and Federal drug enforcement
agencies toward the enforcement of controlled substance
statutes. However, the nature and volume of the investi-
gations conducted by these agencies leaves virtually no
resources for the enforcement of "street -level" drug
problems. This Program is designed to focus on problems
at the "street" or "user" level as opposed to emphasis on
interstate transport, manufacture and sale of narcotics.
The Officer funded by this Program will be free to follow
up on calls of individual sales and use of drugs which
are received daily but which cannot be properly investi-
gated due to a current lack of resources, and also
will work with school officials as well as officers
working with the Lubbock Independent School District.
Data will be collected on a monthly basis from the
beginning of the Program detailing such areas as calls
received, contacts made, the number of arrests and cases
filed. Analysis of such data will provide information
which will assist in overall Program evaluation as well
as providing a basis for specific concentration of
enforcement.
The total costs for this Project are $53,362.30. The
City's part is included in the present Police Department
budget. Staff recommended approval of this request.

THE POLICE DEPARTMENT OF THE CITY OF LUBBOCK, TEXAS, AND ESTABLISHING A
SECOND POSITION IN THE RANK AND CLASSIFICATION TITLE OF "ASSISTANT POLICE

Staff has recommended reorganization of the Police
Department which would provide for better management
throughout the Department and which could be accomplished
at minimal cost. The projected target date for the
implementation is March 1, 1986.
February 27, 1986
109
The recommended reorganization would not require new
personnel to be added, and would cost about $2,400 in
additional salaries per year, due to the elimination of
the rank of Police Major and addition of one Assistant
Chief. Modest costs were also anticipated for the
movement of telephones in the Police Department, but no
furniture purchases were anticipated.
71 As proposed, the Patrol Division would be headed by a
Captain and would have five Lieutenants. Four Lieu-
tenants would command the four shifts and the fifth
Lieutenant would serve in relief, and would come from
Internal Affairs. The Internal Affairs Lieutenant would
be replaced by a Sergeant and that Sergeant's position
would come from the current Uniform Division's Staff
Sergeant's position.
The Special Services Division would be headed by a
Captain and have one Lieutenant. This Division would
consist of Solo Motorcycles, Accident Investigation,
School Crossing Guards, Parking Control, Tactical
Operations Squad, Selective Law Enforcement Unit, and
Canine. The most notable difference in this organiza-
tional alignment is the movement of the Tactical Squad
from the Detective Division to the Special Services
Division.
The Detective Division would consist of Crimes Against
Property Section, Crimes Against Persons Section,
Investigative Support Section, and the Juvenile Section.
The difference in the proposed organization is the
changing of the Juvenile Division to a Juvenile Section
and becoming part of the Detective Division.
These Divisions --Patrol, Special Services, and Detective
--would report to the Assistant Chief of Police for
Field Operations.
The other Bureau --the Staff Services Bureau-- would be
headed by the other Assistant Chief of Police and would
consist of three Divisions:
Administration Division headed by a Captain, but
would not have a Lieutenant. Budgetarily, the Chief
of Police and the two Assistant Chiefs of Police
would be funded in the Administration Division.
Training Division would be headed by a Captain and
would have one Lieutenant.
Information Services Division would be headed by a
Captain and would have one Lieutenant.
The proposal includes the implementation of a new Divi-
sion, the Special Investigation Division. This Division
would be headed by a Captain (the Captain's position from
the current Juvenile Division). This Division would
consist of two sections, Internal Affairs and Special
Investigations. Internal Affairs would be manned by a
Sergeant. Special Investigations would be staffed as
now, one Lieutenant, the Drug Enforcement Administration
Task Force, the Local Drug Control Unit, and the License
and Permit Unit.
As the reorganization is implemented, personnel evalua-
tions on an annual basis for Captains and Assistant
Chiefs will be reinstated.
The specific recommendation made was to delete the
position of Major and to add an additional position of
Assistant Chief of Police, and Staff recommended
approval of this Ordinance.

ment Block Grant Program.
114 February 27, 1986
Mayor Henry opened the Public Hearing and 8OOoUOCed that
those who had signed up to speak would be called OD in
the order in which they signed.
Jim Douglass, Chairman Of the CDAC, reported to Council
that as part Of the City of Lubbock's Community Develop-
ment Block Grant Program, the City solicits citizen input
in developing the Annual Statement of Objectives. The
Community Development Advisory Committee held three
public 0p8tiDgS during January, 1986 to receive citizen
input. The three 02gtiOgS were held at Mae Simmons
Community Center, Rodgers Community Center and Central
Senior Citizens Center. In addition to citizen input,
City departments submitted requests and backup material
for funding City projects.
While neighborhood meetings were held in areas most
effected by Community Development funding, d question-
naire was included in the September, 1985 water bills to
all residents Of the City. Approximately 05,000 surveys
were mailed and 3,035 (4°6%) were returned. The ques-
tionnaire asked the respondent to circle their sector Of
the City to help determine priorities of each area. The
top three priorities City-wide were:
I. Street Maintenance
2~ Mowing weeds
3. Street cleaning
At the completion of the neighborhood meetings, the
CU00UOitv Development Advisory Committee met to consider
the input received and to develop their recommendation to
the City Council. From the proposed projects and activ-
ity, the Community Development Advisory Committee recom-
mends funding the following projects.

Mr. Douglass expressed his appreciation to the CDAC
members for their diligent work.
James PitkiD, representing the Neighborhood
Redevelopment Commission, stated that the NRC supports
the recommendations of the CDAC. He stated that they
realize that a substantial portion of the funds are
earmarked for housing, but that there are no other
50UrC8s Of funding available to take care of these needs.
Jack Thompson, representing the Lubbock Redevelopment
Association, requested that $I50^000 be allocated to fund
d portion of the PeDg Plan for the Overton Area. He
stated that Texas Tech and private citizens had
contributed substantially to this, and he asked that the
City be a third partner. Councilwoman Baker asked if
this request had gone before the CDAC, and Mr. Th0O0sVO

Craig Brummett, representing Guadalupe Park Neighborhood
Association, expressed support and gratitude of his
organization for the CDAC recommended allocation for
Guadalupe Neighborhood Center.
Orville Alderson stated that this funding is the only
source of money for housing, and urged Council considera-
tion of larger allocations of funding for housing. He
alleged that Council had not been informed of all funds
available to them for distribution. Councilman Nash
requested that City Manager Larry Cunningham speak to
this, and Mr. Cunningham stated that Council is aware of
all funds available, but has, in the past, chosen to
allocate only a portion of the total program income each
year, thereby spreading the use of the funds over several
years rather than expending it all in one year. Mr.
Cunningham went on to state that Council could allocate
the entire amount, if it was their desire to do so
Lucille Minter, representing the East Side Association,
requested that funding be given to housing needs in the
Idalou Highway area, and requested further that no heavy
industries be authorized by Council for that area.
Councilman Patterson pointed out that the East Lubbock
Advisory Committee is working on plans which will include
addressing the needs of this area.
Mayor Henry closed the hearing.

The City staff recommendation differed from the CDAC
recommendation on the funding of one project. The Staff
did not recommend funding the Parkway Neighborhood Center
project while the CDAC recommended $15,210 for the
project. Staff recommended renovation of the Guadalupe
Center, but since that time, we understand many residents
of the Guadalupe area are concerned with the limited
services offered at the Center. It was be Staff's sug-
gestion that the $25,000 for remodeling Guadalupe be
approved, subject to a commitment from the Parkway/
Guadalupe Neighborhood Center's Board that they will
strengthen the programs at the Guadalupe Center. The
c+I F-FIn 1'-4-,..--
116 Febru)ary 27, 1986
The current 1985-86 Entitlement amount for the City of
Lubbock is $2,662,000. A 30% decrease -in the funding
level is anticipated for the following reasons.
1. A 10% overall CDBG Program reduction,
2. A 6% decrease due to Gramm -Rudman -Hollings Legis-
lation,
3. An increase in the number of entitlement cities,
4. A change in the funding formula from 70/30% to
65/35%, and
5. A $500 million HUD administrative deferral.
A 30% decrease in the funding is the equivalent of
$798,000. The 1986-87 entitlement is anticipated to be
$1,863,400.
The recommendation was to fund the difference between the
City's 1986-87 entitlement and the recommended program,
approximately $202,623, from unallocated Community
Development funds. The source of these funds is from
Program Income which has been received during the course
of the CDBG program. The City of Lubbock receives
Program Income from several sources which include: NIDP
Loans which are repaid, land sales from land originally
acquired with CD funds, and weed and rubbish liens paid
by Community Development. This approach will help the
City phase the reductions into the Program.
At the current time the $500 million deferral proposal
has encountered significant Congressional opposition. If
this deferral is defeated, the City's entitlement amount
should be increased, but no definite funding allocations
had been made from the HUD Regional Office.
The City's Community Development Program is administered
in accordance with the Federal Regulations adopted in
October, 1983. The application has been prepared as
stipulated in the regulations. An Amendment to the
October, 1983 regulations is pending in Congress and is
expected to be finalized sometime in 1986, but should
not impact upon our current Statement of Objectives.
Also, the City's entitlement amount is not currently
known, as the appropriations have not been released from
Congress or the HUD Regional Office. The City's Statement
of Objectives does anticipate a decrease of 30%, but this
figure may be revised as legislation is revised.
The Staff recommended that the City Council continue with
the present time table and authorize Community Develop-
ment Block Grant submission so that the environmental
assessments and other planning activities can be con-
tinued without delaying the Community Development Fiscal
Year start-up on June 1, 1986. They also recommended

abandoned. Ms. Ogletree responded to a question by
