52-11-183-353 The following report was made to the City Commission by Lynn Andrews, Secretary to the City
Planning Commission:
"The City Planning Commission met in regular session Thursday, November 6, 1952,
at 7:30 P. M., passed a resolution recommending to the City Commission that the
following zoning applications be denied for reasons stated".
46. Report: The City Planning Commission meeting �n regular session Thursday, November 6 at
7:30 P. M. passed a resolution recommending to the City Commission that the following zoning
applications be denied for reasons stated:
1. Request of J. B. Miller, Case No. 389 to change Block 68, Roberts & McWhorter
Addition from a IICrr Apartment District to a rr Jrr Industrial District. This
property is located at Baylor Street and Sherman -Avenue. The Commission does
not recommend that a public hearing be held to consider a change in zoning of
this property for the reason that a IIJrr Industrial District in this location
would be extremely detrimental to the established Apartment district on the West.
2. Request of J. H. Perry, Case No. 404 to change Lot 41, Block 1, Sunrise Addition
from a "B" Residential District to an "F" Business District. This property is
located at Avenue A and 45th Street. The Commissnn does not recommend that a
public hearing be held to consider change in zoning of this property for the
reason that an adequate over-all zoning pattern has already been adopted for
this area, and to grant this request would be "spot zoning".
3. Request of Bates Witt, Case No. 405 to change Lots 1 and 2, Block 4, College
View Additio rom an "A" Residential District to an "F" Business District.
This Property is located at 33rd Street and College Avenue. The Commission
does not recommend that a public hearing be held to consider a change in zon-
ing of this property, for the reason that this property is already suitably
developed residentially and would be detrimental to adjacent residential
development.
4. Request of S. S. Forrest, Jr., Case No. 407 to change Lots 17 through 20,
Block 1, Westminster Heights Addition from a IIC" Apartment District to an
rrFrr Business District. This property is located at 34th Street and Elgin
Avenue. The Commission does not recommend that public hearing be held to con-
sider a change in zoning of this property for the reason that there is
sufficient property zoned for commercial use in this area, and the granting
of this request would tend to scatter commercial development rather than con-
solidate it, which is the purpose of zoning.
52-11-183-354 Motion by Commissioner Davis, seconded by Commissioner Morris, motion carried, Mayor Tripp
and Commissioners Morris, Carpenter, Davis and Thomas voting Yea, none voting Nay, to approve
change order # 6 to J. R. Fanning contract, G. W. 0. # 592, for Avenue M widening. Said

pletion time of this contract t4 July 1, 1953.

f- Flashih Signals for Protection Ft. Worth & Denver Railroad Crossings
Nr. . Steve Matthews
� o
City Manager
City -of Lubbock
Lubbock, Texas
Dear Sir:
The Fort Worth and Denver Railroad has requested the State give consideration tothe placing of
flashing signals at the railroad crossings at Avenue G and 19th Street.
An inspection on the ground/was made by Mr. Taylor representing the Austin Office and fir. Parnell
Supt. Signals and Telegraph for the Railroad.
The type of signals and the rracticability of operation were discussed and a plan was agreed
on. The Railroad Company was asked to give -us an estimate of the cost, and they advised that
the proposed signals would cost about $16000.00.
These signals have never been financed nor authorized, but the Railroad Company is planning
to install the necessary underground cable when they lower their tracks and construct the
concrete crossings. They'are proceeding with the understanding that the award of the arbi-
tration committee provides that the City of Lubbock -shall pay the cost of installing these
signals. This award states that such signal lights as are considered necessary by the City,
the Railroad and the State Highway Department will be paid for by the City.
Since you have not/indicated your approval of these signals, the State has not authorized their
installation though we have agreed to the plan as submitted by the Railroad Company.
I assume that the Railroad Company would not install such signals without your approval, but
I felt that you should be advised of their desire to have these signals operating before the
crossing is opened to traffic.

Very truly yours,

Denver Railway Company for tangible and intangible damages done to their property and business
as a result of the opening of 19th Street.

Re: Brown Estate Property Transaction:
Dear Mr. Scott;
We wrote you on October 17th and October 25th and those letters are again referred to. 0n
_
November 3rd, after receipt of our last letter, you telephoned the writer and suggested a
settlement which you would recommend to the City Commission on the following basis: That the
City of Lubbock would pay $10,400.00 to our eight clients, and that the Cogburns would pay to
our clients $10,800.00 for the property specially set out in our letter of October 17�h , or
a total of $21,200.00 to our eight clients; in addition to this, you stated that the City
would settle with the sister living in the Valley who would have an interest in the land now
used for right-of-way but which will be abandoned if the new right-of-way goes through.
In our letter of October 25th our eight clients offered to settle everything on a basis of
$26,000.00 to be paid to them. Yourzecommendation calls for the payment of $21,200.00 to them
At our urgent request, another meeting of the heirs has been held and the matter thoroughly
discussed from beginning to end. Representatives of this group were in our office Thursday
and we are authorized to say the following:
The appraisal report by the Lubbock Real Estate Board was dated September 3, 1952. We
have a copy of this reportin our file. That Board reported that they found the reasonable
value of strip of land 79 feet wide East and West to be $13,500.00. As we have pointed out in
our previous letters, and stated on the telephone, the deed to the Cogburns which our clients
will be called upon to execute will cover a strip not 79 feet wide East and West but actuall:
104 feet wide East and West.' True, th6 East 25 feet of this acreage will be dedicated to
Avenue G. At the same time, the Brown heirs will donate an additional 25 feet on the West
of their remaining acreage for the same purpose. Of course, the adjacent owners on their sidf
of the Avenue whould donate the same amount of land. According to our calculations, if the
appraisers had included 104 feet instead of 79 feet, they would have found the value of the
acreage to be purchased by the Cogburns to be a total of $16,843.75. Of this amount, Mrs.
Cogburn owns twenty per cent. The remaining eighty per cent owned by our clients amounts to
$13,475.00. This sum, added to the amount which you would recommend to be paid by the City
or $10,400.00, makes a grand total of $23,875.00. This last item represents the appraisment
value of the land to be sold when extended to a width of 104 feet and it adopts the figures
of the City through you, of the value of the property to de abandoned. Therefore, we feel
that this is a very reasonable offer, and we assure you that it has been secured after long
and vigorous conferences.
This letter should reach you before the Commission meeting on November 13th.
Yours very truly,
Turner & Seaberry
