Lubbock to Keep Five Percent Fire Insurance Credit
Fire Chief W. Hershel Sharps announced the State Board of Insurance will retain Lubbock’s five percent good fire record credit for 1968 despite last year’s high fire losses. He cited 1967 chargeable losses of 570 346 and total fire losses of 905 000, noting certain policies aren’t credited to the fire record. The credit cuts premiums by about 52 000 for residents, roughly 5 per 100 in premiums.
