Board Approves Office Building on 50th St in Lubbock
The City Planning and Zoning Commission approved a professional office building in the 2200 block of 50th Street despite one member's objection. The panel also ruled against south of Loop 289 industrial zoning in southeast Lubbock, rejected an industrial zone at 304 Idalou Road, and approved a C-4 commercial zone at Loop 289 and Idalou Road. A life insurance office was not permitted under the specific use provision, sparking concern it could become a wedge to alter apartment zoning. The commission will present its policy on go kart safety to the City Commission on April 28.
