Zoning Debate Overturns A-1 Plan At Civic Center Area
The council shifted zoning from A-1 to Rel near the new Lubbock Civic Center amid protests that land had long been zoned A-2 for a convalescent home. The commission also set sign limits along Avenue Q opposite the center and exempted two businesses from guidelines. Several rezoning requests were rejected or approved, prompting criticism that the council overstepped authority and harmed the real estate market.
