Information

Agenda Item

Ordinance 1st Reading - Engineering: Consider an ordinance amending Articles 39.04 and 39.07 of the Code of Ordinances of the City of Lubbock, by adding Articles 39.07.046, and amending Sections 39.04.012, 39.04.013, and 39.07.020, to allow for certain building permits to be approved while required infrastructure is constructed in parallel.

Item Summary

The Code of Ordinances of the City of Lubbock, Section 39.04, prohibits the City from approving a Building Permit prior to completion and acceptance of all required infrastructure. This proposed amendment would allow Building Permits for certain commercial projects to be released while infrastructure is completed in parallel with other building activities. In lieu of requiring the infrastructure to be built, a bond can be provided, allowing construction of both the building and infrastructure to occur simultaneously.  This amendment would apply to developments with four (4) or fewer commercial tracts.  Ultimately, this amendment allows for more efficient construction sequencing.

Fiscal Impact
