installation of two water meters at her residence, said installation being in effect for the
last nine years. She indicated that the matter was recently discovered (June, 1978) when an
employee of the Water Department came out to "rotate the meters."
Ms. Totten related the sequence of events and felt that she was entitled to the full
reimbursement in the amount of $338.47; LP&L Collection Department indicated that an overpayment,,
if any, would be more likely in the sum of $257.89. Following a discussion, motion was made
by Councilman Henry, seconded by Councilman Aderton to pay Ms. Totten's claim with the provision
that a check be made with the Water Department as to the correct sum; also Councilman McAlister

Public hearing on Housing Code
In accordance with the notice of City Council hearing posted July 28, 1978, hearing was held
on this referenced matter.
Mayor best announced that Councilman Henry was abstaining from participation in this hearing
and the resultant discussion.
Proponent: Sister Regina Froppe
Sister Regina addressed herself to the proposed ordinance indicating that it, from her point
of view, was a very good proposal; that it was a far reaching proposal; that there would be
much less disease spread with its enforcement; that it would discourage crime; that housing
conditions were rapidly returning to the pre-1970 tornado status. She did express some concerti
about the water, electric and general utility bills being increased in low income areas. She
asked how the plan would be handled; whether the tenants would be bringing in the complaints
or did they plan to do a city-wide inspection.
The response from the Council to her query indicated that complaints would be filed by the
tenant, that there would be no inspection unless the complaint was filed. Sister Regina
responded that among low income people there was a fear in reporting any complaints.
Opponents: Donna Pugh, representing the Lubbock Apartment Association
Mrs. Pugh directed her remarks to nonsupport of the proposed ordinance for three reasons 1)
that there presently existed through the Better Business Bureau a means of investigating
complaints filed concerning apartment complexes, and also the Association have an ethics
committee that pursued complaints filed; that this would be repetitious from the proposed
ordinance requirement; 2) the cost involve; that the Association did not feel there was a
large enough problem to justify the increased expenses; 3) standards - that most apartments
do not at present comply with the proposed standards, and urge that each home owner be supplied
with the proposed ordinance.
The response from the Council to Mrs. Pugh's comments reflected that the standards were to be
such that each dwelling should be habitable. Councilwoman Jordan requested a letter from Mrs..
Pugh on behalf of the Association indicating those standards that were objectionable to the
Association. k
Opponent: Roy Middleton, representing his own personal
interests, and appearing as a member of the
Planning Committee for the Lubbock Board of
Realtors
Mr. Middleton's remarks reflected that they were opposed to the proposed ordinance for the
reasons that in concept it was an interference in business by a governmental agency; the
increase costs involve for implementation of such ordinance; and the factor of precedence;
that while the present Council's interpretation and intent might be sound, what would be the
intent and interpretation of future Councils.
Councilwoman Jordan inquired whether or not Mr. Middleton would have any objection to a Substand
and Housing Code of occupied dwellings if the factors of safety and health only were involved.
Mr. Middleton indicated those two factors only possibly would raise no objection.
Opponent: Bill Malloy, property manager in Lubbock
Mr. Malloy indicated he was opposed to the proposed ordinance particularly as it affected
rental apartments in Lubbock; that control was based on supply and demand; that trying to
regulate control was not the answer; that the increase in cost would be prohibitive.
Opponent: Lynn Mercer, 331176th Street
Mr. Mercer is a realtor and a property owner, and addressed his remarks on a personal bases.
Mr. Mercer felt very strongly that it was not the function of the City of Lubbock to regulate
and control this type of situation as reflected in the proposed ordinance; that it was a free
enterprise system and such a proposed ordinance was an invasion of this system; that there was
too much police power and not enough police protection; that there was a certain segment of
society which was destructive, and there was a certain type of tenant who could not afford to
pay the type of rent which would result from the implementation of such an ordinance. Mr.
Mercer itemized innumerable thefts and situations which he had experienced as a property owner,
and there had not been any investigation or remedy of same. He concluded his emotional remarks
with the statement that should such a proposed ordinance be passed, he would be willing to sell
all of his property to the City of Lubbock.
Opponent: Jim Crenshaw, investor and rental property owner
Mr. Crenshaw addressed his remarks to the fact that the proposed ordinance was an all-encompass;-
-ing ordinance, not specifically designed to the upkeep of just rental property; that there
needed to be clarification between policy and strict interpretation of the ordinance, which
are two different things; that if it was not the Council's policy to enforce this on the home
owner, then it should be so stated; that if there was to be an all -encompassing survey, how
many pieces of property would this ordinance cover by strict interpretation and not by policy;
that it was not acceptable to have an all -encompassing ordinance with double standards of
enforcement.
AUG 101978
Opponent: H. A. Sessions, architect
Mr. Sessions indicated he had been involved in construction of several of the apartment
complexes; that certain sections throughout the ordinance, citing Section 6 - electric
standards, were based on 1978 standards and property built prior to 1950 would not comply
with these standards; that the standards -referred to in Section 7 of the proposed ordinance
were standards recently enforced by the City and that 90% of existing apartments do not
comply with these standards; that the standards referred to in Section 10 were 1978
requirements and anything built since 1950 would not comply with these standards; that
the standards referred to in Section 12.07 with respect to hot water heaters was not
practical, and was not in accordance to the hot water heaters size, and cited the instance
of a recent apartment building composed of 40 units in which 200 gallon capacity hot water
heaters were installed; that he personally was not in favor of,the proposed ordinance of
anything that infringed on personal business freedom; that the rental markets do need
anything of this type at this time; that it will be inflationary in the rental market;
that it would take out of the market low rent type apartments.
Opponent: Ruel Nash
Mr. Nash expressed his feelings that this instrument was not needed; that it would raise
the cost and he was opposed to anything that would increase cost; that Lubbock has enjoyed
the availability of money from mortgage lendors who have been supporting the growth of
this City, and that this instrument would create a moratorium on mortgage money; and that
Lubbock would become "marked City"; that he wondered if the City was setting itself up to
judge, has the City forgotten the consumer is protected by new consumer laws, and is the
City going to be the judge in such resulting law suits; that the City has now passed a
sign ordinance, landsaping ordinance, which cannot be policed at this time; that we have
more ordinances that can be enforced; why burden the citizens with another instrument
such as this; that the problem can be resolved by supply and demand and through condemnation;
that the Better Business Bureau is setting up an Arbitration Board who handle complaints
which come into the community; can't we use this source for handling complaints - commercial
vs. residential; that specifics should be more clearly defined.
Mr. Bertram responded to some of the queries to the effect that the proposed ordinance
would not apply to rental units only, but would be applied to all units; that the
determination of property damages is extremely difficult to prove; that possibly a
committee to upgrade the existing Building Code and the Housing Code should be established.
Mr. Jim Ratliff, chairman of the Housing Standards Commission, briefly responded to the
feeling of the Commission to improve or correct matters of safety and health conditions
in minimal housing areas.
There being no further appearances, the hearing was closed.
The Council responded that the Housing Commission had given its approval to the proposed
ordinance. Councilman Aderton commented that the old code may need some revision, but
that it is not so bad that it would have to be superseded by the proposed code, which is
unrealistic, in his opinion; that we should stay with what we have and work on it where
work is needed.
Councilman McAlister referred to the cost factor involved; that more government and bigger
government would be involved; that administrative costs would continue to soar; that the
present ordinance be restudied in an attempt to determine a more uniformed code; that the
present ordinance be referred back to the Housing Commission for study and recommendations
in -the areas concerned.
Councilwoman Jordan indicated that a Substandard Housing Code should be reasonable and
workable and then be enforced.
Following additional discussion, the motion was made by Councilwoman Jordan, seconded by
Councilman McAlister that the Housing Standards Commission look at the present ordinance
and the proposed ordinance and make them readable and workable so that it may be enforced.
Mrs. Donna Pugh, representative of the Lubbock Apartment Association, requested that
representatives of the Board of Realtors and the Apartment Association be invited to this
meeting for input, that they have never been asked to participate before.
Motion carried: Mayor Wiest, Councilmen McAlister, Jordan and Aderton voting Yea; none
voting Nay; Councilman Henry abstaining.

required by law for the purpose of an update report on the progress made in the Community
Development Block Grant Program. He presented a slide presentation outlining the sectors
in the City, the projects that had been implemented, and reflecting their degree of

Setting a date for a public hearing on the annexation of Yellowhouse Canyon Addition.

a combination of mismanagement of the water system, which is a privately owned system, and
