As required by SECTION 1. Chapter 2051, SUBCHAPTER D. GEOSPATIAL DATA PRODUCTS of the Government Code, the City of Lubbock hereby provides notice that the data on this map was created by the C ity of Lubbock.

In late 2014, the City Council of Lubbock, Texas initiated the Annexation and Growth Advisory Committee
and entrusted it with the responsibility to research topics that provide for an in-depth discussion on the
City of Lubbock’s annexation and growth policies. This Annexation and Growth Policy Report represents
the Committee’s findings and recommendations on Lubbock’s annexation policy. This document is de -
signed to help guide the Council’s approach to current annexation issues, and to assist in establishing a
policy foundation on which future City leaders can base their annexation and growth decisions.
This Report examines the City of Lubbock’s annexation history, the City’s current annexation issues, and
potential areas for annexation in the future. In response to the Committee’s review of Texas annexation
statutes and the City of Lubbock’s annexation and growth, the Committee recommends that the following
items become an integral part of the City’s annexation policies and procedures:
1. The City of Lubbock should maintain a long-range, generalized annexation planning map for antici-
pated expansion of the corporate limits and orderly extension of municipal facilities and services,
which could occur through both voluntary and involuntary annexations.
2. The City should continue to monitor opportunities to annex “exempted” territory that is not covered
by the three-year advance annexation plan requirements of the Texas Local Government Code.
3. The City of Lubbock should exercise protective annexation measures to promote uniform development.
4. The City of Lubbock should comply with the extensive State law governing the process of annexa-
tion in order to avoid any major negative legal impact on any annexation that is not correctly carried out.
5. The City of Lubbock should prohibit the provision of municipal services outside the incorporated
areas of the city except in emergencies or when allowed by State law.
6. The City should apply fiscal impact analysis techniques to assess the estimated costs of providing
municipal services and weigh these costs against the anticipated revenues of each proposed annexation.
7. The City should be prepared to consider annexation of areas with less-than-favorable fiscal impact
implications if unique health, safety, environmental, general welfare, or other factors are significant
enough to override financial considerations.
8. When permitted under state law and under City Code, developers and/or landowners that are re-
questing annexation must bear the routine and normally required costs of public service facilities.
9. The City of Lubbock should maintain its positive working relationships with Lubbock County, other
municipalities, the Lubbock Metropolitan Planning Organization, and other public and private ser-
vice providers, regardless of whether the City is in an active annexation planning mode.
10. The City should continue to monitor studies and actions by the Texas Legislature, including poten-
tial new or revised statutes that would impact municipal annexation authority and capabilities.

Additionally, because Texas annexation law is complex and ever-changing, the Committee suggests that
the following guidelines be considered when dealing with any annexation project. For every annexation
issue, the Committee suggests that the City Council be:
- Careful to follow the proper annexation procedure;
- Aware of all development initiatives within the ETJ;
- Cautious about litigating a neighboring municipality over annexed land;
- Amenable to utilizing interlocal agreements; and
- Considerate of the opinions of annexed property owners.
This report also includes an in-depth study on the fiscal impacts of growth on municipalities and a report
on impact fees. The Committee intends that the City Council use these reports to supplement the policy
and guideline recommendations for any annexation issue that the City may face.

INTRODUCTION
In late 2014, increased annexation activity in the City of Lubbock brought to light the necessity for a com-
prehensive report on the real and perceived effects of annexation. The Lubbock City Council organized an
Annexation and Growth Advisory Committee to examine the City of Lubbock’s annexation policies and prac-
tices. As cities grow, the demand for basic governmental services increases (see Appendix A). In response
to growth, municipalities often expand and annex (absorb) adjacent territory to regulate development and
increase tax revenue. Annexation can be a complex process involving competing land use issues by a variety
of parties. Some of the most common issues that arise during the annexation process are:
- Whether there is jurisdiction or authority to annex the territory;
- Whether the statutory procedure has been followed;
- The existence and location of extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ);
- Providing governmental services through a service plan for the annexed areas; and,
- The imposition of taxes and other fees on the annexed property.
These issues were discussed by the Committee and this report is a summary of the Committee’s discussion
on how the City of Lubbock’s annexation practices have dealt with these issues in the past, how they are be-
ing addressed now, and how they are going to be confronted in the future. This report provides the Commit-
tee’s proposed changes to the City of Lubbock’s annexation practices in order to help establish a set of an-
nexation policies and procedures that will guide the City of Lubbock’s annexation activity for years to come.

MUNICIPAL ANNEXATION IN TEXAS1
Annexation Overview
Texas cities are some of the fastest growing in the United States. The broad power of Texas home-rule cities to annex
has permitted cities in Texas to share the benefits of growth in the surrounding areas. According to many national
authorities, this annexation power is the primary difference between the flourishing cities of Texas and the declining
urban areas in other parts of the nation.
The importance of annexation authority in Texas is reinforced by a review of the most basic elements of municipal
finance and intergovernmental relations:
LubbockCity of
(a) Cities (city taxpayers) pay for a wide array of ser-
vices and facilities that benefit entire regions and
the entire state. Cities are centers of employment,
transportation, health care, entertainment and
merchandising used by non-city residents through-
out the region. This means that cities must support
public safety services and a physical infrastructure
sufficient to serve a daily influx of visitors from
throughout the metropolitan region.
(b) In Texas, there is very little state aid to munici-
palities as compared to other states. Texas, how-
ever, has allowed cities to annex. Cities have used
that annexation authority to bring adjacent areas
into the city and into the system through which
cities finance the services and facilities that benefit
the region and state.
(c) To erode or eliminate municipal annexation au-
thority without considering the issues of municipal
revenue and intergovernmental relations would
cripple cities and city taxpayers. If annexation au-
thority were to be eliminated, Texas would become
the only state in the nation that denies both state
financial assistance and annexation authority to its
cities.
(d) Annexation is often seen as a method by which
land uses in the city are protected from adjoining
inconsistent land uses and development patterns
in the extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ). On the date
of annexation, those inconsistent land uses and
developments may be “grandfathered” for a period
of time, but future development must conform to
municipal land use regulations and comprehensive
plans, thus preventing the expansion of repugnant
or inappropriate land uses.
(e) Annexation of territory expands the munici-
pal tax base. This is often seen as desirable since
it is not unusual that many residents in a city’s
ETJ receive similar services as do those in the city
limits-and often without paying for those services.
Consequently, municipal property taxpayers subsi-
dize services and infrastructure that benefit those
residents just across the city limits line.

The ability to annex is a powerful development tool made available to Texas cities. When yielded correctly, a city can
forge for itself orderly development and increased tax revenue.
Former Annexation Legislation
Texas has never been a stranger to the annexation process, as on July 4, 1845, a constitutional convention of popularly
elected Texas delegates assembled in Austin and passed an ordinance to accept annexation into the United States.
The Republic of Texas may have ceased to exist, but annexation controversies were not destined to disappear from the
Lone Star landscape at any time in the immediate future.
In August 1912, the voters of Texas passed the home-rule amendment to the Texas Constitution. This amendment
gave cities with populations in excess of 5,000 the ability to adopt a home-rule charter granting them the full power
of self-government, including the authority to unilaterally annex property. As originally established, a home-rule city
was able to annex land contiguous to its own city limits whenever city officials deemed such an annexation was war-
ranted, without state interference or supervision and without the inhabitants’ approval. Cities were prohibited from
annexing other cities, and when the inevitable territorial disputes arose, cities negotiated agreements between them-
selves or initiated litigation to resolve their differences.

MUNICIPAL ANNEXATION IN TEXAS
Municipal Annexation Act
In 1963, the Texas legislature enacted the Municipal An-
nexation Act (“Act” – now codified in Chapter 43 of the
Texas Local Government Code) which limited Texas cit-
ies’ powers over surrounding unincorporated areas. Prior
to the adoption of the Act, a municipality could annex
territory up to the city limits of another municipality. The
Courts followed the “first in time – first in right” rule that
the first to commence annexation or incorporation pro-
ceedings was entitled to complete the proceedings and
relate the entire action back to the date of commence -
ment. As a result, annexation contests occurred between
municipalities. As a part of a solution to municipal an-
nexation competitions, the Act created the concept of
extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ). ETJ is an imaginary area
not a part of any other city or its ETJ, which is contiguous
to the corporate limits of any city. A city’s ETJ extends a
distance ranging from one-half (½) mile to five (5) miles
from the city limit boundary, based on the city’s popu-
lation. For example, the City of Lubbock’s ETJ extends
five miles out from its city limits and sometimes abuts
or encompasses the smaller ETJs of surrounding cities
(See Appendix B). A city may only annex territory within
its ETJ. Any attempt to annex territory within the ETJ of
another city without that city’s consent is void. Although
the creation of the ETJ was intended to eliminate dis-
putes because of the statutory formula to determine ETJ,
municipalities continue to litigate: (1) whose ETJ is it; (2)
whether a city relinquished its ETJ by agreement or by
prior action; and, (3) whether a City failed to timely bring
an action to challenge the annexation or whether the
annexation has been validated by the legislature. In the
absence of apportionment under Texas law, cities are
faced with the “first in time - first in right” rule to annex
territory in overlapping ETJ. The first city to initiate an-
nexation process acquires jurisdiction to the exclusion
of all others. The “first in time” rule also applies when
more than one city has statutory authority to annex
the same territory. The Texas Supreme Court requires a
court challenge be brought within two (2) years after the
adoption of the annexation ordinance, or consent by the
municipality is presumed. Thus successful invasion into
and annexation of another municipality’s ETJ can result
even though by statute a municipality may not annex
territory within the ETJ of another municipality if timely
suit is not brought.
In the 1980s, the legislature prohibited strip annexa-
tions of less than 1,000 feet (the previous standard was
500 feet) and required that the construction of capital
improvements necessary for providing services to newly
annexed areas begin within 2 ½ years and that it also be
substantially complete within 4 ½ years. The legislature
also required that cities provide full municipal services
to annexed areas within 4 ½ years – the term “full mu-
nicipal services” was defined to include “services provid-
ed by the annexing municipality within its full-purpose
boundaries.”
Municipal annexation is a process by which a municipality expands its boundaries into adjacent areas not already
incorporated into the municipality. This has been a common response of cities to urbanization in neighboring areas.
It may be done because the neighboring urban areas seek municipal services or because a city seeks control over its
suburbs or neighboring unincorporated areas.
Current Annexation Requirements: Restructuring the Act
The 1999 legislative session culminated in a complex, often difficult to understand reconstruction of the Texas Mu-
nicipal Annexation Act and Chapter 43 of the Texas Local Government Code with the passing of S.B. 89. Under the
Bill, there are two basic annexation procedural schemes, each of which is based either on the inclusion or exclusion
of an area in a city’s annexation plan:
- Annexation of area that is exempt from the annexation plan requirement; and
- Annexation after December 31, 2002 of area included in an annexation plan.
City officials initially must determine whether an area they wish to annex falls under one of the exemptions from the
annexation plan requirement. If an area is exempt, the city must follow the procedures set forth in the Code’s Chapter
43, Subchapter C-I, “Annexation Procedure for Areas Exempted from Municipal Annexation Plan.” These procedures
are virtually identical to those that previously existed, with the exception that certain notice requirements are more
stringent. If an area is not exempt, the city must place it in an annexation plan and wait three years to annex the area
under the procedures established by Chapter 43, Subchapter C, “Annexation Procedure for Areas Annexed Under
Municipal Annexation Plan.”

MUNICIPAL ANNEXATION IN TEXAS
Annexation Plan
The plan must identify annexations that
will occur beginning three years after
the date the plan is adopted. However,
certain types of areas are exempt from
the plan requirement. For example, if an
area “contains fewer than 100 separate
tracts of land on which one or more
residential dwellings are located on
each tract,” the area is not required to be
placed in an annexation plan. Also, if the
land is annexed by petition of area land-
owners or voters, the area is not required
to be in a plan. While Chapter 43 of the
Texas Local Government Code allows
residents of general law municipalities
to petition or hold an election to re-
quest to be annexed, the Code does not
provide for any such procedure for home
rule municipalities. Thus, many cities
will have a one-page plan stating that
they do not intend to annex any area for
which an annexation plan is required
(See Appendix C).
If land is required to be in a plan, nothing prohibits a city from
amending the plan to include new areas, but the city may not
annex such areas until three years have passed from the time the
area was included in the plan. If an area is removed from the plan
within 18 months of being placed in the plan, the area cannot be
placed back in the plan for one year. Similarly, if an area is removed
from the plan after 18 months of being placed in the plan, the area
cannot be placed back in the plan for two years. If an area remains
in the plan, its annexation must be completed 31 days after the
three-year holding period, or the city must wait five more years to
annex the area.
In addition, before the 90th day after the city adopts or amends an
annexation plan, the city is required to give written notice to:
- Each property owner in the affected area, as indicated by the
appraisal records furnished by the appraisal district for each
county in which the affected area is located;
- Each public entity, or private entity that provides services in the
area proposed for annexation; and
- Each railroad company that serves the municipality and is on the
city’s tax roll if the company’s right-of-way is in the area proposed
for annexation.
Service Plan
The Bill required that every city in Texas adopt an annexation service plan. A service plan provides the timeline a city
will pursue to provide the extension of services to the territory to be annexed. The plan must include a program
under which the municipality will provide full municipal services to the annexed territory no later than four and
Annexation Process
To begin the annexation process, a
city council must direct its planning
department or other appropriate city
department to prepare a service plan
that provides for the specific munici-
pal services that will be provided to
the area to be annexed. Before a city
may institute annexation proceed-
ings, the city council must give notice
of, and conduct, two public hearings
at which persons interested in the
annexation are given an opportunity
to be heard. The city council must call
the first public hearing on the pro-
posed annexation and cause a copy
of the notice of the hearing to be
published. The notice of each hearing
must be published in a newspaper
of general circulation in the city and
the area proposed for annexation at
least once on or after the 20th day
but before the 10th day before the
date of each hearing. The newspaper
should execute a notarized affidavit
stating that the hearing notice was
published. The city also must give
written notice to any school district in
the area at this time. This procedure is

one-half (4 ½) years after the effective date of the annexation. The plan must also include a program for the city
to commence construction within two and one-half (2 ½) years and complete construction of any capital improve-
ments necessary for providing municipal services adequate to serve the area within four and one-half (4 ½) years after
the annexation. The capital improvements, however, are not required to be completed within four and one-half (4
½) years for the development projects in the annexed territory if the annexation was initiated by petition or request
of the landowners who have so agreed. At a minimum, the plan must provide police protection, fire protection, solid
waste collection, water maintenance, wastewater facilities, roads, parks, and other publicly owned facilities within the
annexed territory within sixty (60) days after the effective date of the ordinance. The service plan is a contractual obli-
gation of the municipality but may be amended through negotiation at a public hearing except services may not be
deleted from the plan. The plan may also be amended or repealed after its adoption if the governing body determines
upon public hearings that changed conditions or subsequent occurrences make the plan unworkable or obsolete. The
amended plan must provide comparable or better services than originally adopted. The plan is valid for ten (10) years
and may be renewed at the discretion of the City. The service plan may be enforced by a resident by applying for a
writ of mandamus which, if granted, requires the City to pay the applicant’s attorney fees and costs; and must provide
the municipality with the option of disannexing the area within thirty (30) days. The only remedy for failure to provide
services, however, is disannexation.
repeated for the second hearing.
All persons attending the hearings
must be given an opportunity to
express their views regarding the
proposed annexation and the service
plan. The hearings must be con-
ducted on or after the 40th day and
before the 20th day before the date
of the institution of the proceedings.
The date of the “institution of pro-
ceedings” is the date the annexation
ordinance is introduced on first read-
ing. If a city requires only one reading,
the proceedings are instituted and
completed at the same time. In addi-
tion, the annexation of an area must
be completed within 90 days after the
date the city council institutes the an-
nexation proceedings or the proceed-
ings are void.
If the annexation is exempt by virtue
of the “100-tracts” exemption, written
notice must be sent before the 30th
day before the date of the first hear-
ing to each property owner in the
area to be annexed, and each public
entity, or private entity that provides
services in the area. All annexations
require written notice to each rail-
road company with right-of-way on
the area proposed for annexation. In
addition, the city must post notice of
the hearings on the city’s website, if
the city has a website.
If a written protest is filed by more
than ten percent (10%) of the adult
residents of the area proposed for an-
nexation within 10 days after publica-
tion of the notice, at least one of the
public hearings must be held in the
area proposed for annexation if a suit-
able site is reasonably available.
Finally, the city council, acting at a
meeting that is separate from the
two required hearings, adopts an
ordinance annexing the tract and
approving the service plan for the
tract. When the annexation ordinance
is passed, a copy of the service plan
is attached to the ordinance, and the
plan becomes a contractual obliga-
tion of the city.

ISSUES IMPACTING ANNEXATION
6LubbockCity of
Although the annexation process has been carefully outlined within Texas statutes, there are many areas in which the
act of annexation may create some confusion for city leaders and residents. A few of the more common issues that are
associated with annexation projects are listed below.
Ordinances and Taxes
When a municipality extends its boundaries, the new
territory immediately becomes subject to municipal ju-
risdiction and all ordinances are applicable to the newly
annexed property. When land is annexed, the public
streets and alleys in the annexed property become the
public streets and alleys of the annexing municipality.
The new inhabitants are subject to the same taxation
burden, including obligations of bonds approved before
annexation; and entitled to the same privileges, protec-
tion and advantages already provided within the an-
nexing municipality. A municipality, however, may not
impose property taxes on property annexed by munici-
pality after January 1 unless the annexed territory was
located in another municipality of like kind on January 1,
in which case each municipality imposes property tax on
the property located within its boundaries on the date
the appraisal review board for the appraisal district ap-
proves the appraisal roll. Thus, although the inhabitants
and landowners are subject to taxation for all munici-
pal indebtedness existing at the time of annexation,
property taxation may not be imposed until January
1 immediately following such annexation, unless such
territory was located in another municipality of like kind.
If property is annexed into a city’s corporate limits after
January 1, that property cannot be taxed for that year.
Voting Rights
Until a recent decision in Shelby County v. Holder (2013
WL 3184629), annexation of inhabited land by a munici-
pality constituted a change in voting practices or proce-
dures and required pre-clearance of the Attorney Gen-
eral of the United States under § 5 of the Voting Rights
Act of 1965. Even the annexation of vacant land had to
be pre-cleared before the new residents could vote in
the territory annexed. However, the decision in Shelby
County negated this requirement for pre-clearance.
Zoning
Municipalities do not have zoning authority outside of their
territorial limits or within their ETJ. Control or regulation of
the development within the area to be annexed, however,
is important not only to the municipality, but also the land-
owners and residents. As a result, landowners will often
negotiate with municipalities regarding zoning concur-
rently within the annexation process. Most comprehensive
zoning ordinances provide for a zoning classification or
temporary zoning classification for property annexed into
the municipality. Since the Zoning Enabling Act does not
permit municipalities to zone property within their ETJ or
outside City limits or to do so concurrently with annexa-
tion proceedings, most comprehensive zoning ordinances
pre-classify such territory by applying a particular zoning
classification or temporary zoning classification to annexed
property.
Nonconforming Uses
Notwithstanding the zoning regulations and other ordi-
nances of the annexing municipality, the annexation of a
territory may result in nonconforming uses and structures.
Depending on the regulations of the annexing municipal-
ity, nonconforming structures and nonconforming uses
will be allowed to continue until such uses or structures
are abandoned, destroyed, or terminated by appropri-
ate regulation. Nonconforming uses and structures are
protected subsequent to annexation and may continue
to exist thereafter until abandonment. The municipality’s
zoning regulations may legally restrict the right of the
landowner to extend or enlarge a nonconforming use or
structure. Determination of whether a nonconforming use
or nonconforming structure prior to annexation entitles
a landowner to a vested right to use the entire property
for a nonconforming use or to occupy a nonconforming
structure following annexation is dependent on the facts of
each case and the applicable zoning regulations.
Subdivision Regulation
A municipality may extend subdivision regulations to its
ETJ and enforce such ordinances. Municipal subdivision
regulations are not automatically extended to the ETJ,
and so they must be extended by ordinance. A viola-
tion of such ordinance outside the corporate limits of
the municipality within the ETJ does not constitute a
criminal violation but the municipality has the right to
institute an action in the district court to enjoin the vio-
lation of any provision of such ordinance within the ETJ.
In addition, a plat for an area in a municipality’s ETJ must
be approved by both the municipality and the county -
with the more stringent regulations controlling.
Incentive Agreements
In lieu of a tax abatement or similar agreement between
a municipality and potential businesses looking to open
or relocate within the municipality’s ETJ, the municipal-
ity or landowners may agree not to annex territory. A
City may enter into an agreement not to annex business
property in a designated industrial district for a period
up to fifteen (15) years. The City receives the benefit of
having business located near the City with the resulting
employment while the business is not burdened by ad
valorem taxation. The contract may be renewed or ex-
tended for successive periods not to exceed fifteen years
each. If any owner of land in the designated district is
offered an opportunity to renew or extend the contract,
then all other owners of land within the area must be
offered the same opportunity. The City is permitted to
provide fire-fighting services to areas within the indus-
trial district that is subject to the agreement. The statute
also provides other protection to the City and to the
business during the period in which the property may
not be annexed, in that a political subdivision may not
be created within the industrial district unless the City
gives written consent by ordinance or resolution.

ANNEXATION IN LUBBOCK
8LubbockCity of
Lubbock’s Annexation History
From the time of its incorporation in 1909, the City of
Lubbock has actively utilized its annexation power. By
the 1940s, the City had annexed enough land to more
than double its original land area. In the ‘50s, Lubbock’s
population grew from around 70,000 to almost 125,000.
The City’s annexation activity during the same decade
was also significant, due in large part to the anticipated
construction of Loop 289. By 1959, the City’s boundar-

ies had been expanded to include nearly four times the
amount of land than what was present at the start of
the decade. Annexation after the ‘50s has not been as
aggressive in Lubbock. Most annexation initiatives have
been focused on incorporating land in southwest Lub-
bock for residential and commercial development.
Previous Annexation Practices
Lubbock’s aggressive annexation initiatives in the ‘50s
were partly rooted in the City’s desire to provide orderly
development as it was experiencing significant popula-
tion growth. Four major annexations in the late 1950s
were motivated by the final determination by Texas
Department of Transportation (TxDOT) of the location
for the proposed Loop 289. The objective, at that time,
was to establish City oversight (City construction and
development codes) roughly one mile outside of the
future loop. Lubbock’s existing grid-like street layout is
due, in part, to the forethought of planners in the ‘50s
who, in their annexation plans, considered the most ef-
fective way in which City services could be provided to
City residents. Additionally, in the 1990s and 2000s, the
availability of undeveloped land immediately surround-
ing the City of Lubbock has allowed for several success-
ful annexations as developers have expanded Lubbock’s
housing and retail options into the south and west parts
of the City.
Recent Annexation Activity
The vast majority of the City of Lubbock’s annexation
projects since the 1980s have been focused on the un-
developed land adjacent to the city limits in the south-
west quadrant of the City. Undeveloped land to the west
and southwest of Lubbock has been annexed to provide
retail and residential services for Lubbock’s growing
population. Of the most recent annexation initiatives,
nearly all have concerned land in the southwest quarter
of the City.
Current Annexation Practices
All of The City of Lubbock’s recent annexation initiatives
are subject to the City’s existing annexation policies
which are as follows:
1. Lubbock shall exercise protective annexation mea-
sures to preclude strips and pockets of urban blight
adjacent to the city. Such annexation will avoid enclo-
sure of unincorporated pockets.
2. Extension of municipal facilities outside the city shall
be prohibited except in emergencies or when annexa-
tion can be completed within 90 days.

ANNEXATION IN LUBBOCK
3. Developers and/or landowners that are requesting
annexation must bear the major costs of public service
facilities when existing land within the corporate
limits can support anticipated growth for a 10-15 year
period.
4. Location and amounts of land to be annexed must
provide maximum efficiencies of municipal services
such as police, fire protection, water, sewer, street
maintenance, and solid waste collections. Dispropor-
tionate costs to tax revenues shall be discouraged.
5. Prior to public hearings on annexation, the Planning
and Zoning Commission shall forward an opinion to
the City Council, in the form of an Annexation Survey,
stating the impact of the annexation on long range
growth patterns and rate of growth.
However, there are other factors underlying Lubbock’s
recent annexation activity, most of which have dealt
with small tracts of land in the southwest quarter of the
City’s ETJ. Lubbock’s current annexation activity seems
to be in response to the growing number of residents
in the southwest portion of the City. Additionally, most
recent annexations have been relatively small tracts of
land in comparison to the large tracts annexed through
the ‘90s.
The committee drafting this report was called to exam-
ine the underlying issues driving the City’s recent an-
nexation initiatives and identify annexation policy and
practice areas that can be corrected or promoted as the
City of Lubbock moves forward. Lubbock’s practice of
annexing small tracts of land in response to population
growth, are two areas that this committee addresses in
its future annexation policy.
10LubbockCity of
Anticipated Annexation Initiatives
Rather than break the city down into indiscriminate
quadrants, the committee has identified specific areas to
recommend for annexation based on the conditions of
each (see attached map). Of these areas, the committee
recommends a multiple step process beginning with a
city-driven, or involuntary, annexation of much of the
recommended area. The second step, for some areas,
would be an Annexation Plan in order to facilitate the
growing areas of the community and maintain a more
uniform city limit boundary.

ANNEXATION IN LUBBOCK
In order to maintain a positive development environment, any annexation along a thoroughfare or expressway
should include a buffer area on the opposing side of the street. This will allow for the City Code of Ordinances to
be equally enforced along both sides of the street.
11LubbockCity of
Area A: This area is east of Highway 87 and south of
82nd Street. The recommendation for annexation in
this area is simply to stay ahead of current development
trends. The area is not a rapid growth area but it has
seen a notable interest for industrial development. The
interest in the area has outgrown the current city limits,
although the development itself is consistent with the
type of development adjacent inside the city limits. Even
though there may be resistance from existing owners
or developers, this annexation would help to promote
development along the proposed future Interstate 27
corridor heading south.
Area B: This area is southeast of the current city limits,
east of University Avenue to Highway 87, and south to
146th Street. This densely developed area should be
considered under an Annexation Plan in order to protect
the Highway 87 (proposed I-27 Extension) corridor. This
area will continue to be a major entrance corridor for the
City of Lubbock and annexation of the area would pro-
actively ensure an acceptable standard of development

Area C: This area is south of the current city limits be-
tween University Avenue and Milwaukee Avenue, up to
146th Street (CR 7500). It is recommended that this area
be a priority for annexation and should be annexed by
involuntary annexation where possible. This area con-
tains multiple neighborhoods that would not be eligible
through an involuntary annexation due to certain re-
quirements of the state statute. It is recommended that
these neighborhoods be considered with an Annexa-
tion Plan in order to maintain uniformity of the city limit
boundaries.
Area D: This area is south of 130th Street and west of
Milwaukee Avenue to Alcove Avenue. This area is recom-
mended to be an involuntary annexation where appli-
cable. This undeveloped area abuts one largely devel-
oped neighborhood east of Milwaukee. If a buffer area
is needed around this thoroughfare, which may include
a portion of the neighborhood, then this area may be
required to be included in an Annexation Plan.

Area E: This area is between 34th Street and Marsha
Sharp Freeway, Upland Avenue and Alcove Avenue. This
area is recommended to be annexed by involuntary an-

Area F: This area is generally located in the northwest
side of town, which is north of 4th Street and west of
Frankford Avenue. This area has multiple smaller subdivi-
sions existing and would be complicated for any large
scale annexation. In general, this area should be consid-
ered for petition annexations until a time when the pace
of growth and interest increases in the area. At that time,
an Annexation Plan may be the most viable option for
annexation in the area.

ANTICIPATED ISSUES WITH
FUTURE ANNEXATION PROJECTS
15LubbockCity of
Orderly Development
The City of Lubbock cannot function properly without
adequate transportation, utilities, communications,
waste treatment, parks, schools, fire stations, and other
hard and soft services. Orderly development of land
focuses on timing, location, and density of development
and the overall pattern of land use. Contiguous develop-
ment and compact development allows for the efficient
and economical extension of services to maximize ben-
efit from City expenditures. Compact development will
reduce the cost per household of public services such
as road maintenance, code enforcement, police and
fire protection, and mail delivery. The committee has
expressed the desire to keep jurisdictional boundaries
as “square” and easy to follow which will help to reduce
confusion in jurisdictional boundaries for police, fire, and
other emergency services.
Street and Existing City Facilities Maintenance
The Committee strongly agreed that the Street Main-
tenance Program is an important asset to the city and
recommends that it be funded appropriately without
incurring any additional debt. To date, paving main-
tenance has been financed and the Committee urges
Council to find a way to cash-fund all street mainte -
nance. This recommendation was echoed with regards
to future building maintenance as well.
Thoroughfare Paving
In 2004, the City Council authorized allocation of a por-
tion of utility franchise fees to go towards the Gateway
Fund. This fund was established to provide a source of
construction funding for street projects designed to spur
development, growth, and redevelopment within the
city. To travelers in southwest Lubbock, those Gateway
projects are most visible as the construction of Indiana
Avenue, Quaker Avenue, Frankford Avenue, Milwaukee
Avenue, and 98th Street. On the north and west, the
Gateway Fund also provided for the acceleration of
Marsha Sharp Freeway, the West Loop 289 expansions,
the building of North Slide Road and Erskine Street,
as well as Lubbock Business Park Boulevard. East Ers-
kine Street just inside East Loop 289 is currently under
design as a Gateway project. City staff has reported the
Gateway fund is fully committed over the next 10 years.
Moving forward, the City must balance costs for new
thoroughfare expansion vs. rehabilitation of existing
thoroughfares within the City. While new thoroughfare
paving may be ultimately required in some areas of new
growth, the City should weigh the benefits of construct-
ing full-width 7-lane concrete thoroughfares. The City
may find better long-term cost benefit by only con-
structing 5- or even 3-lane sections that will serve the
public’s needs for quite some time. However, the City’s
standard procedure should be to dedicate or acquire
7-lane right of way for any new development.
TxDOT Lubbock Outer Route Project
The Texas Department of Transportation has determined
a preferred location for its Lubbock Outer Route Project.
FM 1585 between US 87 and US 62-82 will be the first
phase of the Outer Route Project. At this time, some of
that first phase area is already in the City limits and the
City would have the ability to regulate land uses along
the Route. Moving to the west, the public will benefit
if the City can control more of the land uses along the
corridor through zoning. For portions of the Route
extending far to the west and then far to the northwest,
it is unlikely the City will be in a position to annex along
the Route in any foreseeable future because TxDOT will
likely construct the road too far beyond the city limits.
Water Supply and Conservation
Supply - Prior City Administrations, along with city staff,
have done an admirable job of securing future water
resources and supplies for the City of Lubbock. The
Director of Public Works along with the Director of Water
Utilities provided a report to the Committee which
summarized what is stated in the City of Lubbock’s 2013
Strategic Water Supply Plan. The report provided that
the City of Lubbock has a strategic water supply plan
that will provide the City with adequate water sup-
plies for future decades. The strategic plan accounts for
expected population growth and models scenarios for
both conservation of water and increased consumption.
Lubbock citizens have become more water conscious
due to the recent drought and have done well to con-
serve the current water supplies.
Consequently, the need for new infrastructure required
to bring additional City of Lubbock water to the Lub-
bock citizens may be delayed. The Committee was told
that staff does not anticipate the need for any new
water supplies within the next ten years at the current
population growth rate. There are planned expansions
of current water supplies in the near future. This includes
the expansion of the Roberts County Well Field and the
Lake Alan Henry Water Supply. As Lubbock continues to
grow, water consumption is anticipated to increase at a
similar rate. Whether the population expands within the
current city limits or in newly annexed areas, the impact
to Lubbock’s water supply and distribution system will
be the same.
Conservation - Water conservation is a growing concern
within the City of Lubbock as well as across the state.
As noted above, the City has taken an active role in

ANTICIPATED ISSUES WITH FUTURE ANNEXATION PROJECTS
securing water resources and should also take an active
conservation advocatory and regulatory role to protect
those water resources.
Recommendations - One method to conserve water,
related to growth and development, would be to pass
a specific smart-scape or water wise landscaping ordi-
nance. The Committee encourages City staff to continue
to work with the Developers Council to determine best
water conservation and landscaping practices for all
new development which would effectively curtail water
consumption as well as maintain viability in the mar-
ketplace. It may be preferred to develop a landscape
ordinance to ensure all new development is landscaped
in a water-wise manner. Other regulations or ordi-
nances requiring the use of “low-flow” water fixtures in
new construction may well aid in ensuring water-wise
development across the board. The City could encour-
age the use of water wells for landscaping and possibly
streamline the approval process for new irrigation wells
as much as possible. While irrigation wells tap into the
same overall Ogallala Aquifer that supplies our drinking
water, the public saves in the long-run by not paying for
the treatment and delivery of water which is not being
consumed by humans. Currently, the City of Lubbock
obtains none of its drinking water from any groundwa-
ter source, so the local irrigation wells should not have
any measurable impact to the supply fields located over
60 miles away.
Fire Stations
As growth has continued into undeveloped areas, fire
protection has become a major concern. As new struc-
tures, especially homes, are built farther away from
existing fire stations the City’s Insurance Services Of-
fice Fire Suppression Rating Schedule (ISO Rating) may
be impacted. This rating can affect insurance rates city
wide. The committee recommends that the creation of a
fire station master plan is necessary for future planning.
The fire station master plan should be a component of
an overall updated Comprehensive Land Use Plan. Fire
Department personnel visited with the Committee to
offer their insight on fire suppression. The ideal response
time desired by the fire department is four minutes or
less, requiring the City and developers to have consis-
tent communication in order to ensure that acceptable
levels of fire services are maintained as development
occurs in a given area. Once a new fire station is con-
structed, perpetual annual operations costs, including
the staff, upkeep, and equipment, should be considered.
A fire service master plan could help staff predict where,
and more importantly when, to construct new fire sta-
tions.
Police Department
The City currently staffs the Police Department at an
approximate level of 2 officers per every 1,115 citizens.
The City Council’s stated goal is 2 per 1000. As expansion
to the population occurs, personnel must be added. One
officer per approximately every 200 homes would be re -
quired to staff at the desired 2:1000 for newly developed
areas. As the City grows in any direction either by infill or
expansion, the increased population and/or geography
will drive the need for more officers.
Parks and Playa Lakes
Other than two parks in Vintage Township, there are
currently no dedicated public open spaces south of 98th
Street. However, there is a process in place by which
the City can take ownership of a public park around a
playa lake with the onus remaining on the developer
to construct the park to City standards. The developer
then must rely on a positive City Council vote to accept
the playa/park for ownership and maintenance after the

improvements have been constructed. Conversely, the
City must have the performance measures and funding
in place to ensure the park meets acceptable standards
as usable open space. As growth continues beyond our
current borders, the City and developers should work
together to find ways to provide well-maintained and
sustainable public open space, particularly around the
playa lakes.
School Districts
The current City limits encompass primarily the Lub-
bock, Lubbock Cooper, and Frenship Independent
School Districts. Small pockets of the Idalou, New Deal,
and Roosevelt Independent School Districts are situ-
ated on the north and east side of the City. As Lubbock
has continued to expand, much of the south and west
areas are situated within the Lubbock Cooper and Fren-
ship Independent School District boundaries. In effect,
Lubbock has become a three school district city. As
such, careful consideration should be given to all school
districts within the area when considering growth.
Fiscal Impacts
The Committee examined the fiscal impact to the City
of recent annexations. The committee has developed
a fiscal model of what became known as the “mythical
mile”. This is a theoretical square mile of development
where a 20-year time frame is calculated for the ultimate
build-out of the development. For this exercise, it is
important to remember this could be one geographi-
cal square mile or, more broadly, one equivalent square
mile of growth anywhere within the city. This includes all
expected land uses within the square mile. The model is
dynamic and all parameters can be adjusted for any de -
sired development scenario. For an in-depth synopsis of
the “mythical mile” and four sample fiscal reports, refer
to Appendix D.
Development Incentives
At the local and state level there are several tools to
create incentives to steer development or redevelop-
ment into a certain area within a city. It was advised
that, where an incentive program is appropriate, the City
Council consider a program for certain areas within the
inner core of the city. Incentive options the committee
discussed are as follows:
Waiving of Fees for development in existing areas: If
development fees are waived for some areas of the
city, that shortage in revenue would need to be made
up elsewhere. Furthermore, development fees do not
necessarily account for an appreciable percentage of
the cost of development. Therefore, waiving of develop-
ment fees may not be in the best interest of the city as a
whole.
TIFs – A Tax Increment Finance District provides a source
of revenue to be dedicated to improving an area which
is being re-developed. Currently, there are a few TIFs op-
erating within the City. While a TIF is a good mechanism
for funneling the incremental revenue within a desig-
nated district, it may not necessarily “incentivize” devel-
opment in that area unless TIF monies can be advanced
ahead of the development to upgrade infrastructure.
The tax load on the property still increases when the
new project is built.

ANTICIPATED ISSUES WITH FUTURE ANNEXATION PROJECTS
PIDs – Public Improvement District is an option available
to allow a developer to provide publicly owned ameni-
ties within his development for the benefit of those
property owners. PIDs have recently been opposed by
residents within some developments and they do cre-
ate an accounting burden for city staff. A PID may not
necessarily be viewed as anything that would encourage
development in a given area, but a PID remains an op-
tion for a developer to pursue for amenities.
Tax Abatements – The City of Lubbock is not alone in its
use of tax abatements. Abatements are currently imple-
mented in Waco, El Paso, Bryan, Dallas, Fort Worth and
San Antonio. Other programs may also exist elsewhere
in the state. Abatements would need to be studied fur-
ther to determine viability within a given area.
Impact Fees – Generally, an impact fee can only be as-
sessed against new development to cover costs of new
or expanded capital improvements directly attributable
to that development or service area. For example, an
impact fee could cover roadways, or major water treat-
ment facilities, or other items directly attributable to a
service area. A full report of impact fees, along with a list
of Texas cities which have implemented some form of
impact fees in response to growth, is provided in Appen-
dix E.

LUBBOCK’S
ANNEXATION POLICIES & PRACTICES
PROPOSED CHANGES & CONSIDERATIONS
19LubbockCity of
Proposed Changes to Lubbock’s Annexation Policy
Based on the Committee’s review of the City’s past an-
nexation practices and current and long-term develop-
ment issues and trends and considering the input of City
leaders, staff, and residents, the following Annexation
Policies are recommended to guide future annexation
activity by the City.
1. The City of Lubbock should maintain a long-range,
generalized annexation planning map for anticipated
expansion of the corporate limits and orderly exten-
sion of municipal facilities and services, which could
occur through both voluntary and involuntary annexa-
tions. The map is intended to only provide general
guidance since annexation phasing priorities will shift
over time depending on development activity and
infrastructure and service conditions.
2. The City should continue to monitor opportunities to
annex “exempted” territory that is not covered by the
three-year advance annexation plan requirements of
the Texas Local Government Code.
3. The City of Lubbock should exercise protective an-
nexation measures to preclude strips and pockets of
urban blight adjacent to the city. Such annexation will
avoid enclosure of unincorporated pockets.
4. The City of Lubbock should comply with the extensive
State law governing the process of annexation in order
to avoid any major negative legal impact on any an-
nexation that is not correctly carried out.
5. The City of Lubbock should prohibit the provision of
municipal services outside the incorporated areas of
the city except in emergencies or when allowed by
State law.
6. The City should apply fiscal impact analysis tech-
niques to assess the estimated costs of providing
municipal services and weigh these costs against the
anticipated revenues of each proposed annexation.
The fiscal impact of annexations should be assessed
on a multi-year time frame. Location and amounts of
land to be annexed should provide efficient use of mu-
nicipal services such as police, fire protection, water,
sewer, street maintenance, and solid waste collections.
Disproportionate costs to tax revenues shall be dis-
couraged.
7. The City should be prepared to consider annexation
of areas with less-than-favorable fiscal impact implica-
tions if unique health, safety, environmental, general
welfare, or other factors are significant enough to over-
ride financial considerations.
8. When permitted under state law and under City Code,
developers and/or landowners that are requesting an-
nexation must bear the routine and normally required
costs of public service facilities.
9. The City of Lubbock should maintain its positive work-
ing relationships with Lubbock County, other munici-
palities, the Lubbock Metropolitan Planning Organiza-
tion, and other public and private service providers,
regardless of whether the City is in an active annexa-
tion planning mode.
10. The City should continue to monitor studies and
actions by the Texas Legislature, including potential
new or revised statutes that would impact municipal
annexation authority and capabilities.
Policy Implementation Considerations
Because Texas annexation law is complex and confusing,
the Committee also provides the following guidelines
that should be considered when dealing with any an-
nexation project or annexation litigation.
1. Follow the proper annexation procedure. There are
two types of annexation errors - procedural and sub-
stantive. Procedural errors are voidable; substantive
errors are void. Some errors are clearly procedural, some
annexation errors are clearly substantive, but many an-
nexation errors have never been classified by the courts.
The line dividing void and voidable errors is often blurry.
Once the annexation error has been classified, the
proper procedure follows. If a city fails to follow annexa-
tion procedures, the annexation ordinance is merely
voidable and only the State of Texas can file suit by quo
warranto proceedings. This is the exclusive remedy. A
neighboring municipality has no standing to challenge
the annexation. If your city has been sued by a neigh-
boring city for a procedural annexation error, file a plea
to the jurisdiction. The claim should be dismissed. If the
annexation error is substantive, a declaratory judgment
action is proper. It can be filed by a neighboring city. It is
well-settled that a collateral attack can be made where
the challenged annexation is void.
2. Be aware of development initiatives within the ETJ.
It would be prudent for the City to require its Engineer-
ing, Planning or GIS department to obtain mapping and
ordinance information on a regular basis in order to be
up-to-date on the City’s natural expansion.
3. Be cautious about litigating a neighboring munici-
pality over annexed land. Do not file suit unless the City
(i) is willing to spend significant sums of money on legal
costs in the next few budget years; (ii) can withstand
adverse publicity on multiple occasions; and, (iii) is (by
court order) willing to hand over the annexed property
(and its ad valorem taxes and economic development
potential) to the neighboring city. The City must be well-
prepared for annexation litigation.

LUBBOCK’S ANNEXATION POLICIES & PRACTICES
PROPOSED CHANGES & CONSIDERATIONS
4. Utilize Interlocal agreements. The City should enter
into interlocal boundary agreements with neighboring
municipalities before an annexation dispute begins. This
proactive, single step could save the City thousands,
even hundreds of thousands, of dollars in legal fees to
resolve a boundary dispute in the courts. It is a good
practice to schedule periodic meetings with neighbor-
ing municipalities to discuss annexation plans. When
discussing the apportionment of ETJ with an adjacent
municipalities, the City should strive to analyze annexa-
tion from a “delivery of services” standpoint rather than
by sheer land area considerations.
5. Consider the opinions of annexed property owners.
Never underestimate the resolve of rural landowners
and property owners with a differing philosophical view
of municipal benefits. Many times, annexation seems
“unconstitutional”, “un-American”, and “downright unfair”
to those who are experiencing annexation for the first
time. The City should review its property owner lists well
in advance of its decision to initiate annexation, espe-
cially under an Annexation Plan. Even in exempt annexa-
tions under Section 43.052(h)(I) [100 tract exemption],
the chances of encountering an “anti-city” property
owner are high. Most rural residents are interested in im-
proving water service and tying into sanitary sewer lines.
However, the details of how, when, and who pays must
be known and explained to avoid major opposition at
the annexation hearings. Be open and honest about the
City’s level of participation in utility extensions. A series
of informational meetings conducted by staff in the
areas affected can aid in the process; however in most
cases, expect the Council meetings to be well-attended
and the speakers to be passionate.

CONCLUSION
21LubbockCity of
First and foremost, continued growth and development
is important to Lubbock. Lubbock is and will continue
to be a regional hub for the South Plains. Orderly devel-
opment is essential and has played a major role in the
development of Lubbock. This has provided a moderate
and consistent growth pattern for decades. As the City
and region grow, the need for City services will grow,
requiring the City to develop and move forward accord-
ingly. Once the City gets behind the development curve
with regards to annexation, it is difficult to catch up and
get ahead of development. Currently, the City is play-
ing catch up; development is leading the annexation
request rather than the City staying ahead of develop-
ment.
Annexation and growth often go hand in hand. Each is
presented with the same questions and concerns. How-
ever, without proper planning and forward thinking,
orderly growth and development becomes challenging.
Annexation, with regards to growth and development,
should be viewed as a precursor. By annexing areas
ahead of development, the City may enforce its codes
and regulations more effectively, therefore generating
orderly development inside the City. Conservation of
resources and efficient use of City services are also im-
perative and result from forward thinking policies. These
policies, codes, and regulations play a significant role in
how a city is developed.
All of these factors should be reviewed at regular inter-
vals, possibly leading to Comprehensive Plan updates.
Topics such as water wise landscaping, development
densities (both maximum and minimums), parks, open
space, transportation, fire station locations, and land use
arrangement all play a role in the future of this City. The
committee hopes this report and any resulting updates
to City policies and codes will continue to guide future
decision makers for years to come.

APPENDIX D
SUPPLEMENTAL STUDY - FISCAL IMPACT OF “MYTHICAL MILE”
27LubbockCity of
During recent annexations, the question has often been raised about the fiscal impact to the City. At first glance, one
would hope that growth, like in any business, would be beneficial and enhance the overall financial status of the city.
However, to date, no detailed analysis had been performed outlining growth impacts to the City of Lubbock. When
looking at growth, every square mile has its own peculiarities which make it difficult to devise an across-the-board
look at fiscal impacts throughout the city. However, the committee has developed a fiscal model of what became
known as the “mythical mile”. This is a theoretical square mile of development where a 20-year time frame is calculated
for the ultimate build-out of the development. For this exercise, it is important to remember this could be one geo-
graphical square mile or, more broadly, one equivalent square mile of growth anywhere within the city. This includes
all expected land uses within the square mile. The model is dynamic and all parameters can be adjusted for any de-
sired development scenario. Land absorption, revenue, inflation, and expenses were addressed as follows:
LAND ABSORPTION
Land Use Land Area Revenue Years built
1. T-fare ROW 27 acres no N/A
2. Playa Lake 50 acres no N/A
3. Church 30 acres no N/A
4. School 15 acres no N/A
5. Commercial 50 acres yes 6-15
6. Garden Office 28 acres yes 6-15
7. Multi-Family 40 acres yes 6-15
8. Single-Family 400 acres yes 1-20
Total Area 640 acres
TAX VALUE/REVENUE
Currently property taxes account for approximately 30% of the city general fund. Sales tax revenue (roughly 39%)
is volatile and may not necessarily increase at the same rate as the growth within a given mile. Sales tax will follow
regional economic trends more than local population growth since sales tax is generated largely from a regional
customer base rather than just those “new” customers within specific growing areas. Those new residents may likely
had already been contributing to the city sales tax base and are simply moving their purchase dollars within the City.
Other components of the general fund were excluded from the revenue side of the analysis as well. So, only property
taxes (including taxes on commercial inventory) were included since those are directly tied to growth and therefore
can be directly tied to the additional city services resulting from that growth.
1. Commercial – A random sampling of eleven commercial sites was taken. Property and inventory values and
assessments were obtained from the Lubbock Central Appraisal District and the low and high values were
excluded to obtain an average property tax revenue of $1,169,380 per acre of land area.
2. Garden Office – A random sampling of eight office sites was taken. Property and inventory values and assesments
were obtained from the Lubbock Central Appraisal District and the low and high values were excluded to obtain
an average property tax revenue of $1,333,433 per acre of land area.
3. Multi-Family – A random sampling of nine multi-family sites was taken. Property tax values and assessments
were obtained from the Lubbock Central Appraisal District and the low and high values were excluded to obtain
an average property tax revenue of $1,240,274 per acre of land area.

4. Single-Family – A sampling of existing neighborhoods in varying price ranges was taken and partitioned into
seven categories. Then, using a listing of single-family permits from 2012-2014 provided by the City of Lubbock
and reported in the recent Lubbock Land Company annual market study, and then equating that to the price
ranges listed, approximate percentages of absorption of the various categories were derived. Of the listed permits
obtained, those which appeared erroneous or were considered to be remodels were excluded from the calculations below.
Market Yield LCAD Value Absorption
a. Low Entry 6.37 lots/acre $126,900 11%
b. Entry level 4.89 lots/acre $154,800 22%
c. Entry-Mid Level 4.23 lots/acre $182,800 24%
d. Mid-Level 3.62 lots/acre $296,500 24%
e. Mid-High Level 2.87 lots/acre $443,500 12%
f. High Level 2.22 lots/acre $713,200 5%
g. Top End 2.20 lots/acre $1,225,200 1%
Therefore Weighted Average is: Yield LCAD Value
4.2 lots/acre $272,000
INFLATION AND PROPERTY VALUE APPRECIATION
Since the model reports the fiscal behavior of the mythical mile over an extended period of time (40 years), a 2.0% an-
nual appreciation factor was applied to the property values. Similarly, a 2.0% annual inflation factor was applied to the
predicted expenses.
ANTICIPATED EXPENSES TO THE CITY RESULTING
FROM GROWTH
As growth occurs over time within our mythical mile, dif-
ferent components of city services must be expanded in
different fashions. Each of the following components of
city services was included in the model as described be -
low. Inflation factors were included as described above.
1. General Administrative Services – Looking at cur-
rent operating budgets and service area, the estimat-
ed annual operating cost for General Administrative
Services is $30,307 per square mile. As our mythical
mile grows, an annual prorated cost was factored
in as our mile develops. Once 100% of the revenue-
producing properties are developed, the full $30,307
cost is included.
2. Animal Services – Looking at current operating
budgets and service area, the estimated annual op-
erating cost for Animal Services is $16,163 per square
mile. As our mythical mile grows, an annual prorated
cost was factored in as our mile develops. Once 100%
of the revenue-producing properties are developed,
the full $16,163 cost is included.
3. Code Enforcement – Looking at current operat-
ing budgets and service area, the estimated annual
operating cost for Code Enforcement is $14,495 per
square mile. As our mile grows, an annual prorated
cost is factored in as our mile develops. Once 100% of
the revenue-producing properties are developed, the
full $14,495 cost is included.
4. Environmental Health – Looking at current operat-
ing budgets and service area, the estimated annual
operating cost for Environmental Health is $5,183 per
square mile. As our mile grows, an annual prorated
cost is factored in as our mile develops. Once 100% of
the revenue-producing properties are developed, the
full $5,183 cost is included.
5. Police – Currently, Lubbock maintains a ratio of 2
officers per 1,115 citizens. However the stated goal
for the city has been a ratio of 2 officers per 1,000
citizens. At an average population of 2.5 people per
household, the desired ratio is equated to one police
officer per every 200 households. Therefore, the ex-
pense for one police officer is added to the model for
every 200 residential lots being added.
6. Fire Station – Based on a 4-minute response time,
one fire station covers approximately 4.5 square miles

of service area. Therefore, our mile would need to
support 22% of the cost of a new fire station. Histori-
cally, some percentage of development has occurred
in a given area before construction of a fire station
at a location best suited for that area. For example, a
pro rata share (22%) of a $6 million fire station can be
added into the model midway through the residen-
tial growth cycle of our mile. Once the fire station is
constructed, then the pro-rated annual operating
cost of that station is added in.
7. Solid Waste – Solid Waste collection and opera-
tions is paid for by the rate-payers. However, as our
mile grows, the need for an additional solid waste
truck is addressed. One new route (truck) is needed
for each 1000 single-family lots. Therefore a prorated
cost for a new truck was added into the model. The
model shows a purchase of one truck when 500
homes have been completed, and then a pro-rated
cost for a second garbage truck when 1,000 homes
have been completed.
8. Street Maintenance – Currently, street maintenance
is not funded directly out of the general fund. However,
moving forward, it has been expressed that street main-
tenance should be cash-funded. The model includes
funding for street maintenance on 3-, 6-, 10-, 17-, 20-,
23-, 30-, 33-, and 36-year cycles as recommended by the
City Director of Public Works. The costs are established
in a matrix listing total areas of paving and anticipated
maintenance treatments based on the age of the pav-
ing through the growth of our mile.
9. Park Construction and Maintenance – The model
presumes a developer would wish to develop his playa
lake as a city park and convey that tract to the city. This
is the most onerous of all the park development op-
tions on both the City and the developer. Under current
Code requirements for playa lake development as a
park, the developer is required to install turf, irrigation,
and drainage improvements. The city would customar-
ily install the playground equipment at a current cost of
approximately $250,000. When the park is developed,
the one-time cost for the installation of the playscape
is included and park maintenance at $2,300 per acre
begins at that point. For this exercise, it is presumed that
half of the playa/park area is maintained and the remain-
ing half would be occupied as lake or unusable area and
not require high-level maintenance.
10. Thoroughfare Paving – Seven-lane concrete pav-
ing was included in the model. This includes half of
the paving width along all four sides of our mile plus
sidewalks, street lights, traffic lights (prorated), and
engineering fees. The model indicates constructing
the thoroughfares in the fifteenth year of the growth
of the mile with a twenty year payout on a bond
issued at 5% interest. Of all the expense items, thor-
oughfare paving has the greatest financial impact.
While the model can show the revenue will support
7-lane thoroughfare paving under various buildout
scenarios, the city may wish to investigate the viability
of a less-expensive 5-lane section. A traffic study may
very well find that a 5-lane thoroughfare would suf-
ficiently handle traffic for a very long time. Also, the
model does account for federal funds should those be
obtained.
11. Water, Wastewater, and Storm Water – Each of
these components are funded by the rate payers and
not out of the general revenue fund. Therefore, they
are not included as expenses in this model.
FISCAL IMPACT SUMMARY
The model can be adjusted in many different ways. For example, one could accelerate the way in which some of the
high-expense items are applied, thereby creating a deficit through some period of the 40-year term. A larger land
area allocated to non-revenue generating uses such as playas, schools and churches may create a deficit. Conversely,
reduction to 5-lane thoroughfare paving or gaining federal funds for those projects will demonstrate a significant
positive impact to the bottom line.

APPENDIX E
SUPPLEMENTAL STUDY - IMPACT FEES
34LubbockCity of
IN GENERAL: The City Attorney researched impact
fees in some of the other cities across the state. Local
Government Code Chapter 395 provides the language
regulating impact fees. In a very simplified way to state
it, an impact fee can only be assessed against new
development to cover costs of new or expanded capital
improvements directly attributable to that development
or service area. For example, an impact fee could cover
roadways, or major water treatment facilities, or other
items directly attributable to a service area. Texas cities
which have implemented some form of impact fees are
listed below. Of particular note is the growth rate each
of these communities is reporting. The Committee did
not contact the cities listed to confirm, but the Commit-
tee does believe their growth rates (averaging nearly
7.5% over 3 years) may likely be the common thread for
their decisions to implement these types of fees.
Lubbock may consider the ramifications of establishing
impact fees for the following types of capital improve -
ments:
Water or Sewer: Treatment facilities which have a
clearly defined service area may be considered. How-
ever, if say, an expansion to one of the water supply lines
entering the city were required, it may be difficult to al-
locate or justify that type of capital expense to a specific
service area.
Roadways: For Lubbock, our thoroughfare system is
an interwoven grid. While some prorated portion of a
thoroughfare may be directly attributable to a specific
service area, the full-width paving is usually only re -
quired to serve a much larger traveling population not
necessarily tied to the specific service area. Care would
need to be taken to justify how much of the roadway is
actually attributable to a given service area.
Drainage Facilities: All new development within the
City and the ETJ is required to be designed to accom-
modate post-development run off from the entire
watershed. The onus is on the developer to provide an
adequate network of streets and other surface drainage
improvements to accommodate the flow from a given
water shed (service area). So, it is unlikely there would be
any new capital improvements constructed by the City
for drainage relief in newly developed areas. Conversely,
capital drainage improvements have in fact been con-
structed in established areas primarily as flood relief.
Since impact fees can only be applied to new develop-
ment, the revenue may be very limited to recoup any
expenses for the capital drainage improvements already
underway.
EXPENDITURES NOT ELIGIBLE: The statute limits impact
fees to cover capital improvements and facility expan-
sions. As defined in State statues, “capital improvements”
are limited to water, wastewater, drainage, and roadway
facilities. “Facility expansion” is limited to expansion of a
facility which serves the same function as an otherwise
necessary “capital improvement”. Therefore, impact fees
may not be used for items such as fire stations, parks, ad-
ditional police personnel, or other such expenses.
BENEFITS: In cases of specific large capital improve-
ments, the establishment of impact fees can provide a
revenue source to reduce the financial burden on either
the tax payers or rate payers outside of the service area.
For example, if an area of the city is growing and there is
the need for a new water tower to support that growth,
then that expense gets allocated directly to the home-
buyers or other end users in that defined area.

SUPPLEMENTAL STUDY - IMPACT FEES
DISADVANTAGES: The types of items eligible for fund-
ing from impact fees is very limited. The establishment of
impact fees is lengthy and very involved process. A Capital
Improvements Plan specifically prepared for the impact
fee program must be prepared along with an adoption by
the city of Land Use Assumptions within the service area. An
advisory committee must be appointed to review the CIP pe -
riodically, and a number of public hearings are required for the
adoption of the ordinance. It is likely impact fees would create
a significant additional burden on city accounting staff. Quite
simply, it would create a layer of bureaucracy the City may not
find desirable for the possible benefit.

a. 1912 - Home Rule Amendment to Texas Constitution provided for self-governance of cities exceeding 5000
population
b. 1963 – Municipal Annexation Act limited cities’ powers of annexation
c. 1980 – Further restrictions and elimination of “strip” annexations less than 1000’ wide
d. 1999 – Senate Bill 89 restructured the Annexation Act – further restricted cities’ abilities and established the
requirement for an Annexation Plan under some circumstances
2. Types of Annexation
a. Petition Annexation – Request submitted by land owners and city must conduct three public hearings on
the matter
b. Involuntary – Exempt from Annexation Plan if there are fewer than 100 dwellings on fewer than 100

APPENDIX F
ANNEXATION AND GROWTH POLICY REPORT: BULLETED SUMMARY
g. Area G – In between north Indiana Ave. and north Slide Rd. to Kent St. – Will include the North West Water
Reclamation Plant
h. Area H – Includes the Airport and I-27 corridor – Will help to protect the north entry of Lubbock
6. Considerations for future annexations
a. Orderly development – Keep annexation boundaries easy to identify and encourage continued “full service”
infrastructure for residents
b. Maintenance of infrastructure – move towards cash-funding maintenance
c. Thoroughfare Paving – As growth continues, exercise good strategic planning for expansion to the
thoroughfare system.
d. Outer Route – To the greatest extent practical, incorporate land on each side of the proposed outer route so
as to ensure proper land uses along that corridor.
e. Water Supply – City’s Strategic Water Plan addresses growth and future capital projects necessary to
maintain adequate supply and delivery. Encourage continued conservation
f. Fire Coverage – continue to work between developers and city to ensure timely expansion to the fire department
g. Police Department – As the city grows both geographically and population-wise, police department will
need to expand personal and equipment
h. Parks – Public park development in newly annexed areas has not occurred. Developers and the City’s Parks
Department should work to find an economically viable way to continue development of public open space
necessary for recreation and drainage.
i. School districts – The city limits currently include three large school districts plus three smaller ones.
j. Development Incentives –
i. TIFs – best used as a tool for funneling “new” tax revenue back into an area being redeveloped
ii. PIDs – provides a public means for funding of amenities within a development
iii. Tax Abatements – Implemented elsewhere in the State
iv. Impact Fees – Limited to Capital Improvements including water, wastewater, roadways and drainage.
1. Benefit – May provide funding for capital improvements directly related to a given
development without burdening the overall tax base
2. Disadvantages – Very bureaucratically cumbersome
7. Proposed Annexation Policies for the City of Lubbock
a. Maintain long-range generalized plan for growth and annexation
b. Annex exempted areas (less than 100 homes)
c. Avoid pockets or strips of unincorporated areas
d. Ensure all annexations are following all statutory requirements
e. Continue to prohibit extension of public facilities beyond corporate limits
f. Prepare fiscal analyses for annexations as they are contemplated
g. Be prepared to annex in areas where fiscal impact may not be immediately favorable
h. Require Developers to bear the routine cost for development for petition annexations
i. Maintain good working relationships with Lubbock County, other incorporated communities in the area, and the MPO
j. Stay abreast of latest legislative actions related to annexation and any other growth topics
