the zone change is hereinafter ronde. That 34th Street in the City of Lubbock

is fast and continually growlng and becoming a wide mul.ti•lane stree~ suitable
for pusinesaes, and there is a need in such vicinity for a shopping center which
.eould provide adequate off-s.:treet parking to facilitate the moving of traffic and
the storage of automobiles. Peraons both in favor and against such zone change
appeared at the hearing. The Commission is of the opinion and finds f,hat due
to the Gonstantly changing ~onditions in such vicinity. the influx of population
and the rapid growth and development in the immediate area, that mald.ng such
change will be an a.dded convenience and economy to persons residing and work-
ing in the area and vicinity of the proposed change in zone, and i8 tui'tb,er .
