OFFICIAL MAP OF THE CITY OF LUBBOCK MAKING THE FOLLOWING
CHANGES: ZONE CASE NO. 2072-A; A ZONING CHANGE FROM A-2 LIMITED
TO CHURCH AND CHURCH RELATED USES TO A-1 SPECIFIC USE FOR
APARTMENTS WITH REDUCED PARKING ON LOT 12, BLOCK 52, OVERTON
ADDITION, LUBBOCK, TEXAS; SUBJECT TO CONDITIONS; PROVIDING A

� PUBLICATION.
The City Council held a public hearing and considered this ordinance
amendment, first reading, April 26, 2007. In the week prior to the public
hearing, amended information concerning the number of units on the second
floor (six versus five) and an amended number of units proposed on the ground
floor (four one bedroom units versus three two bedroom and one single
bedroom unit on the ground floor) was provided to staff and included in the
discussion with City Council.
City Council was concerned that there was no discussion of the changes
occurred during the Planning Commission review of the case. In addition,
public testimony of activities at the facility were not described to the Planning
Commission, and the applicant or his agent was not present to address questions
and issues. T'he applicant obtained the assistance of a local real estate agent the
day before the Planning Commission hearing. The agent made a compelling but
unacceptable proposal (for the neighbors) that the ground floor be allowed to
remain as an open space for social functions, or a coin operated laundry, and to
not reinstate the curb line and landscaping along Avenue V as noted in the
recommendations of the Planning Commission below.
Staff "started from scratch" with regard to comments and recommendations for
the case.
� Presented in the first case, background for this property was speculated as
� ossibl a"mom and pop" grocery store or some other small business on the
P Y
first floor and apartments on the second floor prior to the current zoning
ordinance that was adopted in 1975. Since then, the original use has been
determined as a structure with six upstairs apartments, with the ground floor
being primarily a laundry for the residents and the public, as well as a small
area where a pool table was located.
In 1976, the First Baptist Church purchased the building and requested zoning
that would allow the ground floor as extended church activity area (Sunday
school and other church gatherings), and the apartments were either rented or
used in some capacity for the church.
Several months ago, the applicant requested Zoning Board of Adjustment
approval to expand a nonconforming use to a11ow conversion of the bottom
floor into three two-bedroom and one single-bedroom aparhnents. As staff
researched the case the need for the request to be a zone case versus a ZBA
request became clear as the bottom floor has never been used for apartments
and the current zone case ties the property to the church and church related
uses.
Adjacent land uses:
+�` N— a small business now zoned C-1
S — residential
E — residential
W — vacant, zoned residential
The structure has been at this location for years. While the Comprehensive
Land Use Plan indicates "single family residential" for this vicinity of Overton
South, a number of parcels were zoned for apartments that exist in the area, as
well as one Apartment Medical (AM) office and several commercial parcels.
�
.�
Regular City Council Meeting
July 12, 2007
In the case of the current building, with the change of zoning for church and
church related use in 1976, the ability to claim the apartments as
nonconforming apartments for rent to the general public was dissolved. If
approved as "residential", although A-1 is a higher density than R-1, it is staffs
opinion that a minor amendment to the Comprehensive Land Use Plan will not
be necessary.
The first hearing before the Planning Commission was delayed due to the
absence of the owner and the inahility of the representative to accurately
represent exactly what is being proposed. 1'he applicant also started renovation
of the second story units with no building permit. Their opinion was that the � h
work did not meet the level of needing a permit. With the first delay, the
Planning Cominission requested the applicant to acquire an investigative permit
from Building Inspection. They did that, and the inspection revealed a host of
issues that should have been completed under a construction permit and subject
to inspections for compliance.
The inspection report from Building Inspection and the Fire Marshall's report
are provided in agenda backup.
Even before the lack of communication, permits, and attendance by the owner,
one aspect of the zone case not clear in the original filing is related to the
number of parking spaces available. The parcel has 15 "head in" 90-degree
parking spaces from both adjacent streets. As the neighborhood has indicated in
discussion with stafF since the City Council meeting, 12 of the spaces are "head
in" from Avenue V and are the result of someone breaking off the curb to allow
parking. The result created two violations of City law — the first is parking
across the sidewalk and parkway (the area between the original curb and
sidewalk) and the fact that pazking for apartments is supposed to be located
entirely on the pazcel with no backing into the adjacent street. When that
process (breaking the curb) happened is not known, but the length of time does
not alter the fact that it is not legal. The apartrnents were constructed prior to
the date that the zoning code required any on-site pazking.
A discussion between staff and some neighborhood residents creates a proposal
significantly different from the stated objective of the applicant. As noted, it is
verified that when the complex was constructed the side along Avenue V was
landscaped with a sidewalk in place and no curb cuts. The actual parcel has
only the three spaces on 15th Street that are semi-legal in that they are on-site
but still back into the street. A list of conditions noted as recommendations
below will illustrate what staff and at least most of the adjacent property owners
indicate will allow an appropriate measure of use by the owner and not be a
"step back" for the neighborhood as quoted by one Council member. The case
will continue to need to be titled as Specific Use because the six one-bedroom
units would normally require eleven spaces (nine for the apartments and two for
guests). The final result will be short eight spaces.
Reconstruction of the adjacent curb on Avenue V will provide at least six
spaces on street spaces that are not usually considered in a zone case but that
aze the preference of the neighborhood. Also, the neighbors are adamant that
the numbers of units or bedrooms not be increased. The recommended
conditions will speak to that issue. Many of the apartments in Overton were
built before a zoning ordinance even existed, this particular unit was
constructed during several "lax" yeazs during the 1960s and 1970s. As noted in
the last two hearings, the dilemma for the owners of this property and the City
is to either have a change of zoning that will allow use of the building, or the
building will remain vacant and subject to vandalism until it is referred to the
Substandard Housing Commission and an order issued that it must be brought
into compliance or torn down.
Approval of the request with the amended conditions should not have a
significant impact on the area. This entire area is subject to congestion because
of a significant number of accessory units, Texas Tech off-campus parking, and
Lubbock High School to some extent.

Regular City Council Meeting
July 12, 2007
The Planning and Zoning commission, after a lengthy discussion and some
difference of opinion on which options to recommended to City Council,
submits the following as a positive recommendation that has the support of at
least a majority of the neighborhood (the immediate neighbor to the east
actually supported the �dditional units and expressed appreciation to the
improvements made to the property by the new owner):
1. All of the units on the second floor shall meet a level of the construction
and fire codes as determined acceptable by the Building Official and Fire
'�' Marshall.
2. The bottom floor shall be used only in the following manner: The area may
be partitioned with a door installed in each partitioned space as storage for
the unit above.
3. The exterior of the building be either painted and/or enhanced with regard
to appearance.
4. The curb on Avenue V shall be replaced, the parkway and private portion of
the parcel adjacent to Avenue V shall be landscaped, and the sidewalk shall
be approved by the Building Official as acceptable or repaired to an
acceptable condition.
FISCAL IMPACT
No fiscal impact.
Staff supports the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Commission
and recommended approval.

CLAUSE AND PROVIDING FOR PUBLICATION.
The applicant originally filled out the wrong form for the Zoning Board of
Adjustment and the staff corrected the application as a zone case. Zoning
required for a daycare with more than six children requires Apartment (A-2),
Apartment Medical (AM) or commercial zoning.
Adjacent land uses:
N — commercial
S — residential
E — residential
W — office development
This block face is currently subject to a policy for conversion to offices within
the Comprehensive Land Use Plan. Before development of the bank building
and restaurants between 19th Street and 20th Street, the full block face was
developed as upscale single family dwellings. While the original trend on the
r--� block was for offices, childcare is a permitted use in the AM District. The
offices on the block are zoned AM limited to offices since the requests were
made before the development of the Garden Office District. A number of
homes remain on the block and will not be rezoned as a matter of policy until
requested by the owner; presumably their appraisal is not affected until the land
is actually rezoned. As a matter of policy, the request is consistent with the
Comprehensive Land Use Plan.
The applicant will be expected to meet the requirements for parking and
building code issues for childcare occupancy with the exceptions that a circle
drive is normally dictated, the width of the parcel will not allow construction of
5

that requirement. The building will �e part of an existing childcare operation
across the street in the commercial area.
The project will have no impact on the thoroughfare system.
The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended the request with the
following conditions:
1. An attempt for appropriate on site pazking shall be made, and the normally
required circle drive will not be a requirement.
2. Should the business that is north of 20th Street that is the primary facility
for the daycare be abandoned as a daycare facility, this structure will be
required to submit a new zone case with site plan to prove up as a free
standing facility.
FISCAL IMPACT
No fiscal impact.
Staff supports the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Commission
and recommended approval.
5.3. Ordinance Amendment 2nd Reading - Zoning: Ordinance No. 2007-00062
Zone Case No. 2658-I (3103 SOth Street) Hugo Reed and Associates, Inc.
(for U-Stor of America) for a zoning change from A-2 to C-4 Specific Use
(for mini-warehouses) and C-2 on a 3.5 acre portion of Tract E Boardwalk
Addition.
ORDINANCE NO. 2007-O0062
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ZONING ORDINANCE NO. 7084 AND THE
OFFICIAL MAP OF THE CITY OF LUBBOCK MAKING THE FOLLOWING
CHANGES: ZONE CASE NO. 2658-I; A ZONING CHANGE FROM A-2 TO C-2 AND
C-4 SPECIFIC USE FOR MINI WAREHOUSES ON A 3.5 ACRE PORTION OF
TRACT E, BOARDWALK ADDITION, LUBBOCK, TEXAS; SUBJECT TO
CONDITIONS; PROVIDING A PENALTY, PROVIDING A SAVINGS CLAUSE AND
PROVIDING FOR PUBLICATION.
The applicant is requesting new zoning for the site at SOth Street and Elgin
Avenue behind W.D. Wilkins Furniture and Rosa's Restaurant. The east portion
is requested as C-4 Specific Use to expand the current mini-warehouse project.
The west portion is requested as C-2 to enable development with a light
commercial use. A gate or entry to the mini warehouse project is indicated as a
part of the site plan through the C-2 area. The entire block, except for the
former Second Baptist Church, was the location of the former Monterey
Shopping Center.
The applicant is requesting C-2 zoning from the west edge of the proposed
mini-warehouse expansion to Gary Avenue. Several years ago, a case for this
same parcel was proposed except that the area desired as C-2 within this request
was targeted as C-4 for a general contractor office and shop compound that was
heavily screened from Gary Avenue. That case was denied by City Council
based on the recently completed, but yet t� be adopted, Central Lubbock Study
that discouraged heavy commercial zoning along the SOth Street corridor. This
proposal is much closer to the intent of the study than the last request.
A portion of the proposed C-2 parcel in this case (south of Rosa's Restaurant
and W.D. Wilkins Furniture) is across from residential on 53rd Street and it
backs up to the senior living center to the south. The staff and the owner have
explored a number of uses for this out of the way parcel to be redeveloped and �}
become an asset as an infill project, while not a detriment to the adjacent �
property owners. It is important to note that a majority of this zone case is north
of the single level portion (cottages) of the senior living center, not the multi-
story portion. Screening of the development from the senior living pazcel and a
small portion along Gary Avenue will be required either by the Zoning Code or
the recommended staff conditions.
Adjacent land use:
N - commercial
�
Regular City Council Meeting
July 12, 2007
S - senior care facility
E- commercial and a small portion of residential
W- commercial (C-4 Specific Use for a mini-warehouse project)
The project is reasonably consistent with the intent of the Comprehensive Land
Use Plan. Approval of the expansion of the adjacent mini-warehouse project is
screened from Gary Avenue and should have no impact on the area with the
existence of the current project in the interior area of the old Monterrey
Shopping Center tract. The proposed C-2 is across Gary Avenue from existing
�` " C-3 except the approximate south 50 to 75 feet.
The project should have less impact on overall traffic in the area since the
occupants should not at�act a customer base like general retail.
The Planning Commission recommended the request to the City Council with
conditions:
1. The C-4 Specific use development shall be in substantial compliance with
the site plan proposed in Zone Case 2658-G for the expansion of the mini-
warehouse project (see item 3).
2. A steel post wood picket fence is in place on the south side of the C-2
property. The same fending shall be constructed along for 75 feet north
from the southwest corner on the tract adjacent to Gary Avenue.
3. The screening fence on the mini-warehouse portion of the request shall
comply with the SD1 site plan from the file from ZC 2858-G. A gated
opening shall be allowed in the fence.
FISCAL IMPACT
No fiscal impact.
Staff supports the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Commission
and recommended approval of the second reading of this ordinance.

The applicant is requesting Commercial-3 (C-3) on lots along Avenue R
between 7th Street and Glenna Goodacre (8th Street) to join with already
commercially zoned lots that face Avenue Q. A proposed plat will close the
alley and the entire block will be eligible for redevelopment.
Adjacent Land Uses:
N — commercial
S— high density residential eligible for redevelopment as commercial
E — commercial
W — commercial
The reques� is consistent with the amendment made to the Cornprehensive Land
Use Plan for the redevelopment of the Overton North area. When developed,
the eventual use will comply with commercial development guidelines.
The project will have little impact on the thoroughfare system. Texas
Department of Transportation will govern curb cuts allowed on Avenue Q.
The Planning and Zoning Commission supports the request as submitted.

5.5. Ordinance Amendment 2nd Reading - Zoning: Ordinance No. 2007-00064
Zone Case No. 3083 (6302 114th Street) Hugo Reed and Associates, Inc.
(for Carl Mortensen) for a zoning change from R-1 to C-2 on 74.42 acres of
unplatted land out of Block AK, Section 21.
ORDINANCE NO. 2007-O0064
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ZONING ORDINANCE NO. 7084 AND THE
OFFICIAL MAP OF THE CITY OF LUBBOCK MAKING THE FOLLOWING
CHANGES: ZONE CASE NO. 3083; A ZONING CIIANGE FROM T TO R-1 and C-2A
ZONING ON 74.42 ACRES OF UNPLATTED LAND OUT OF BLOCK AK, SECTION
21, LUBBOCK, TEXAS; PROVIDING A PENALTY; SUBJECT TO CONDITIONS;
PROVIDING A SAVINGS CLAUSE AND PROVIDING FOR PUBLICATION.
The applicant originally requested that the entire boundary of the playa that
abuts 114th Street and is surrounded by the proposed Fountain Hills
development be zoned Commerical-2 (C-2). During the meeting, the applicant
amended the request from C-2 to C-2A with a limited number of uses on a 450
deep parcel adjacent to 114th Street and as Residential-1 (R-1) on the balance.
The applicant may, at a later date, submit a request to the ZBA for a golf course
on the R-1 portion, which is a conditional use in R-1.
Adjacent land use is vacant to the north, east and west, and several older homes
on large lots exist to the south across 114th Street. The proposal does not meet
the criteria established for the Comprehensive Land Use Plan. The location is
not at the corner of two major intersections. Development would be recovered
land from the playa along 114th Street and would constitute strip development
along 114th Street contrary to current policy.
The applicant has developed a C-2A case on a reclaimed portion of the playa
that will limit uses to several that they believe will benefit the neighborhood
and limitations created by the configuration of the playa. The question to the
Commission was presented by staff as whether the proposal is an asset to the
development and fits the "lay of the land" better than any other proposal.
For the non-policy location proposed in this request the following is a
theoretical discussion — that the amount of "strip commercial" along major
thoroughfazes in addition to the trad:tic�-�al 40 acres at each thoroughfare
intersection is fostering the circumstances of the City of Lubbock zoning
process becoming involved in an undesirable situation of providing too much
commercial property than the market will sustain. While it is not the specific
responsibility of the City to dictate the market, when zoning becomes a factor
in the appraisal and creates zoning for which there is a lack of the ability of the
owner to develop, someone loses. If the current or new owner pays retail values
for property and then cannot find a buyer or tenants, he or she is highly likely to
become the financial loser.
In the alternative, several well known examples of the viability of off-corner
locations exist on the ground. The Falls Subdivision to the east on 114th Street
between Quaker and Slide Road is one example. When the community
responds to too many requests for commercial outside the bounds of established
policy and there are not extenuating circumstances, the process is not, in the
opinion of the staff, good business. While Lubbock has a number of very
successful strip locations — 82nd Street west of Frankford is a hot market. South
Slide Road is proving viable. But, both these streets represent more than the
"normal" thoroughfare, with 82nd Street generating traffic from the Brownfield
Highway and Slide Road being a major connection to many developed areas
south of Lubbock, as well as a TxDOT facility (a Farm to Market Road). The
other miles and miles of thoroughfares that are developed as Lubbock grows
will not have the luxury of having enough roof tops to sustain both the ten-acre
corner commercial groupings as well as the strips in between.
0
Regular City Council Meeting
July 12, 2007
In the past, a number of locations that have been illustrated to prove up the "too
much commercial" include:
• 98th Street and Slide Road, the northeast corner has a ten acre allotment in
the original zone case for the Lakeridge Public Utility Department, but nine
acres were rezoned to residential since that market is stronger in the long
run for the consumption of land.
• 82nd Street and Frankford Avenue, the southeast corner was zoned as a ten
�, acre commercial site. All of the land except the 82nd Street frontage was
rezoned to residential and has been built out for a number of years.
The corner forty acre allocation of commercial at major intersections is
intended to allow residential to occur between mile intersections, normally with
every other street developed with a cul-de-sac — allowing the thoroughfare to
function as designed with the least amount of interference from side streets or
curb cuts. The original thinking behind the massing of commercial at
intersections was to allow the development of major shopping areas for
consumers to park in one location and visit a number of shops, and to not have
to travel along the major street to visit each shop while exiting and entering
from a thoroughfare. V6'ith this style of development, both the traveling public
and the business community enjoyed access and a safer street system.
All this additional discussion is to indicate that the process of allocating
commercial, apartment and residential areas is a vital asset and responsibility to
the community thai is accomplished through the Comprehensive Land Use
Plan. Changes should be contemplated with forethought and reason.
The drawing and preliminary plat for Fountain Hills will show that a street
could be connected in the vicinity of 112th Street or 113th Street, and with a cut
and fill a series of single family cul-de-sac lots could be introduced on
north/south streets as are the lots to the east. The applicant is of the opinion that
the cut and fill costs for residential square footage would not create a return on
� investment.
Staff is very cautious with regard to requests as represented by this zone case
due to concern about over-abundance of commercial away from the corners of
major thoroughfares. Mr. Mortenson has three such corners in this 416-acre
development. Also, as noted at the beginning of this discussion, the applicant
has asked that the number of uses be limited and perhaps even designed to take
advantage of the rest of the playa.
The motion by the Planning Commission reflects that the action is a minor
amendment to the Comprehensive Land Use Plan and recommended the request
to the City Council with the following conditions:
1. The uses permitted :n the C-2A District shall be limited to:
• restaurants with no drive thru (no window service fast food)
• professional and medical offices
• health or athletic clubs
• church
• daycare
2. The approximate 1,4321ength of the property would be limited to a curb cut
_- plan approved by the Planning Commission before any portion of the property
`' is developed.
`"I FISCAL IMPACT
No fiscal impact.
With only the generic reservations described above and during several recent
"strip" annexation cases, staff supports the recommendation of the Planning
Commission and recommended approval of the second reading of this
ordinance.

N — commercial
S — duplex development
E — commercial
W — residential
The request is different than most locations for Garden Office (although an area
west of University Avenue on 81 st Street has the same type of designation
requested in this case). The row of lots across the street are developed as duplex
lots and within the policy guidelines of the Comprehensive Land Use Plan —
Garden Office zoning is considered a buffer in the same manner as the duplex
zoning, or the current garden home zoning.
Regarding zoning policy, this case should depend a great deal upon what the
owners of the duplex units (since they are the established use) think about the
change. The only letter of protest is ir� t1?e file.
As the property is now platted for Garden IIomes, the number of curb returns
and actual traffic associated with ofF thoroughfare offices may be less than
average for garden home use, plus the office users normally are not present at
night.
The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended the request to the City
Council as presented.
FISCAL IMPACT
No fiscal impact.
Staff supports the recommendation of the Planning Commission and
recommended approval. The Garden Office use will back up to true commercial
that fronts on 19th Street and help buffer the existing duplex units to the south.

Regular City Council Meeting
July 12, 2007
The current Zoning Code requires that accessory living units or homes that
were subdivided into more than one living unit in Residential-1 (R-1) and
Residential-2 (R-2) be registered, a condition of a 1979 ordinance designed to
bring a halt to the contiuued conversion of multiple units on R-1 and R-2 zoned
lots, yet let owners keep wt�a� they had as "grandfathered". Recently, the City
Council enacted a new exception subject to a hearing by the Zoning Board of
Adjustrnent to allow owners of properties with unregistered units that cannot
meet the criteria for registration as a"grandfathered" unit provided in the 1979
ordinance to have approval to use both the front and back units, but a provision
�I is that the owner must live in one of the units. The pride of ownership and
maintenance of older neighborhoods is the emphasis of that approval.
Staff and several neighborhood associations initiated the new exception to
allow the small units in back of a home or a main unit conversion constructed
prior to 1980 to be approved for use with a stipulation that the owner of the
property must live in one of the units. As noted, this exception is new, and does
not interfere with the ability of an owner of a property that was not registered in
1980 to "prove up" the nonconforming status and have the property registered
as nonconforming without the on-site residential requirement.
During investigation of this new ZBA conditional use, it was discovered that a
row of duplex units exist on the south side of 39th Street between Elgin Avenue
and Flint Avenue. They were built in the R-1 or single family district, how and
why are lost to history. With the new ordinance in effect, staff filed this zone
case to "clean up" that block (because the two units on one lot violate the
current ordinance) and also to enable a long existing church to have updated
zoning. When built, the church was a permitted use in R-1, in 1975 church use
was relocated to the Apartnient-2 (A-2) district.
Adjacent land uses:
N — residential
� S — park
E — residential
W — residential
As noted, the nature of the current land use will not change; the request is just
making the zoning conform to what has existed on the property for years.
The proposal will have no impact on the thoroughfare system.
The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of this request
with one condition:
The A-2 portion of the request shall be limited to church and church related use.
FISCAL IMPACT
No fiscal impact.
Staff supports the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Commission
and recommended approval of the second reading of this ordinance.

Regular City Council Meeting
July 12, 2007
The applicant is requesting a parcel located at Erskine and Frankford be
amended from Commerical-2 (C-2) to C-3 to enable construction of a
convenience store with gasoline sales. The shape of the C-2 parcel is a fat "L",
and the applicant withdrew the "L" portion on the west from the zone case
leaving a rectangular parcel that fronts Erskine and North Frankford Avenue.
Adjacent land uses:
N— undeveloped, subject of approval of a commercial zone request
S— existing C-2, originally developed as a garden center and now used as a
child care facility
E— across Frankford, the town home project described below
W— a City of Lubbock fire station and several homes
The paxcel is eligible for C-3 within the policies of the Comprehensive Land
Use Plan. Why C-2 was requested originally probably had to do with the
smaller than ten acre allotment the developer chose for the corner when Shadow
Hills was master planned. The property to the east was originally zoned
commercially.
Until this case was filed, there has been no market for commercial in this
vicinity. The owner of the southeast corner down zoned the entire original
commercial parcel to build a two cul-de-sac subdivision of townhomes. A
similar down zone was done on a portion of tne northeast corner, although a
strip adjacent to Frankford and Erskine remains commercial.
One resident did object during the meeting, concerned about noise, trash, and
lighting resulting from the convenience store. When informed that the store
portion is eligible on the C-2 tract, the C-3 adds the sales of gasoline; the
resident remained unsatisfied. The applicant withdrew the "L" portion of the
parcel noted above and agreed to the fencing along the west property line as
noted in the Commission recommendations below to attempt to satisfy the
resident's concerns. The parcel will be isolated from the main development lot,
but still zoned C-2. The resident's garden home backs up to the child care
facility (originally constructed as a garden center) rather than the tract in
question.
The project will have little impact on the thoroughfare plan. A limitation of one
curb cut on Erskine, located as far west as feasible from the intersection will be
requested as a condition. Curb cuts on Frankford Avenue are within the
jurisdiction of TxDOT.
The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended the request with the
following condition:
The parcel shall be limited to one drive return on Erskine, as far west of the
intersection with Frankford Avenue as feasible.
FISCAL IMPACT
No fiscal impact.
Staff supports the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Commission
and recommended approval of the secoa�d r��ading of this ordinance.

�"` The request is consistent with the Lubbock Cornprehensive Land Use Plan and

The applicant is requesting a ten-acre parcel south of 98th Street on the west
side of Frankford Avenue to be zoned to allow development of a
convalescendnursing home and offices that are allowed in the Apartment
Medical (AM) District.
Adjacent land uses:
N — vacant
S — school under construction
E— single family across Frankford Avenue
W— vacant, zoned single family
The parcel is between a parcel being developed currently by Cooper
Independent School District as a school and a ten-acre parcel on the corner of
98th Street and Frankford Avenue that is owned by a church. The applicant is
developing the subdivision to the west (Lakewood Estates). Originally, this ten-
acre tract was under contract by Lubbock-Cooper to build a secondary school.
That agreement has since been abandoned.
The request is consistent with the Comprehensive Land Use Plan with regard to
facilities such as a convalescent home, church and/or offices be developed on
�� the perimeter of subdivisions and adjacent to the thoroughfares. One of the
neighbors in the large lot subdivision across Frankford Avenue questioned the
proposed land use as "strip commercial", although AM and Garden Office are
not officially included in commercial, they do not constitute single family.
The project will develop within the guidelines of AM when actual construction
is proposed. A proposcd condition will eliminate the Apartment-2 (A-2)
development that is included in AM, and the intention of the developer does not
include apartments. The project will have little additional impact on the
thoroughfare system, p�.rticularly after Frankford Avenue is developed to full
width. As noted, at one time Lubbock-Cooper had an option to build a junior

The Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfectant Byproducts Rule (Stage 2 D/DBPR)
finalized by the United States Environmental Protection Agency on January 4,

allocates $194,909 Civic Lubbock, Inc. for the grant programs. The term of the
agreement is through Mazch 31, 2008. The agreement also stipulates that the
funds are to be used in making grant awards to cultural arts organizations for
the encouragement, prornotion, improvement, and application of the arts and
the promotion of tourism in th� Lubbock community. The funds represent 5.7%
of the hotel and motel tax collected during FY 2005-06. In addition, interest
earned on prior ye�r funding was $4,536, making a total of $199,445 available
for the 2007 Cultural Arts Grant Program. Civic Lubbock, Inc. elected to

allocation of $199,445 will be available for the two granting periods in 2007.
In reviewing requests and developing funding recommendations for each
application, the Cultural Arts Grants Review Committee followed the
guidelines approved as part of the agreement. A Grant Workshop was held on
May 2, 2007, for all organizations wanting to apply for a Cultural Arts Grant.
Workshop presenters included representatives from the Lubbock Convention
and Visitors Bureau, the Lubbock Hotel Motel Association and the City
Attorney's office. Twelve applications were received by the June 1, 2007,
deadline. After a thorough review and evaluation of the applications by the y �

Office Practice Section
The Lubbock Housing Authority (LHA), in its mission to provide quality
affordable housing in Lubbock, has participated in building two new apartment
communities in East Lubbock. Stone Holi:�w Aparhnents located at 1510 East
Cornell and Park Meadows Phase I Aparhnents located at 2502 Weber Drive.
Both of these properties were funded through the Texas tax credit program.
These apartrnent communities are instrumental in the revitalization of North
and East Lubbock and are enhancing the quality of life in the area. There was
no affordable housing of similar quality in North and East Lubbock prior to the
development of these properties.
Approximately two years ago, LHA applied for and subsequently was awarded
tax credit funds to build another similar development. The current project will
enable LHA to demolish its Green-Fair Manor development, a blighted and
antiquated public housing complex in East Lubbock, and to replace that
complex with a new 120 unit apartment community similar to Park Meadows
Phase I.
However, current costs to build this apartment community are significantly
higher than the costs than estimated at the time that funding was applied for and
awazded. In addition, the related financing value of the tax credits has declined.
These two factors have impacted an already tight budget for this project.
As a result, LHA is requesting a waiver of the disposal fees at the City landfill
for the disposal of debris resulting from the demolition of the current Green-
Fair Manor Development. The waiver of these fees will be critical to the
financial viability of this development. The planned development is consistent
with the City of Lubbock's Consali�at^d Plan to eliminate blighted and
dilapidated housing in Lubbock, especially in North and East Lubbock.
Completion of the project will improve one of the older neighborhoods in
Lubbock, and will provide safe and affordable housing.
During the construction of the previous two developments, LHA asked the City
to contribute $10,000 from CDBG funding, which the City granted. The LHA
needs the City's assistance to complete this project with in its original scope.
FISCAL IMPACT
The estimated cost of disposal fees is approximately $250,000. The disposal of
the debris will have a minimal impact on the landfill capacity and operations.
The additional debris will not generate additional cost to the city.

The City has received a request from X-Fab Texas, Inc. to terminate an existing
tax abatement agreement that was approved by City Council on February 24,
2000, and amended on April 27, 2000. Due to a downturn in the industry in
2002, X-Fab's equipment value fell below the base year value so they did not
receive abatement for equipment from 2002 through 2006. In 2006, the building
value fell below the base yeaz value, so no abatement on the building was
given. X-Fab is requesting that the tax abatement agreement be terminated.
At the same time, the industry has recovered and X-Fab is planning an
expansion of their production capacity. They would like to expand their
monthly production capacity by 8,700 six-inch wafers. They have submitted an
application for tax abatement for the new equipment to expand their capacity.
The tax abatement Notice of Intent is also on the agenda for this City Council
Meeting.

The City of Lubbock has received an ap�lication for industrial tax abatement
from X-Fab Texas Inc. X-Fab is planntng on increasing their monthly
production capacity by 8,700 six-inch wafers. This is a new project and X-Fab
would like to have tax abatement for the new equipment only.
The project meets the Industrial Tax Abatement Policy and Guidelines
minimum investment for an existing company of $1 million in new personal
property. Total investment in the project will be approximately $7.7 million
($7.5 million in new personal property and $200,000 in real property
improvements). X-Fab plans to create 75 new jobs with the project.
X-Fab Texas is an existing company and has a total of 370 employees at the
plant located at 2301 North University.
In order to qualify for tax abatement, X-Fab must make some improvements to
the real property. They satisfy that requirement with the $200,000 investment in
real property improvements. The tax abatement would only be on the new
equipment, not the building.
X-Fab does not meet the criteria that the company must use Lubbock Power
and Light (LP&L) for their electric service. X-Fab has requested that staff vary
the guidelines because the operations of the business may require alternate
energy sources and LP&L cannot provide service at this time. Both X-Fab and
LP&L will work toward developing a solution that would benefit both parties.
With the tax abatement application, the City of i,ubbock has received a request
from X-Fab Texas, Inc. to cancel an existi::g tax abatement agreement that was
approved by the City Council on February 2�, 2000, and amended on Apri127,
2000. Due to a downturn in the industry in 2002 X-Fab's equipment value fell
below the base year value so they did not receive abatement for equipment from
2002 through 2006.
In 2006, the building value fell below the base year value, so no abatement on
the building was given. They are requesting that the tax abatement agreement
be canceled. The Notice of Intent to cancel the existing agreement is also on the
agenda for this council meeting.
In order to contract with a company for tax abatement, the municipality must
first deliver a notice of intent to enter into a tax abatement agreement to the
other taxing jurisdictions. This action fulfills that requirement.
Staff has reviewed the application and plan on recommending a five-year
declining scale tax abatement.
FISCAL IMPACT
The total amount of the City tax abatement will be $103,948 over five years.
