The Lubbock City Council has approved a zoning change for an area in north Lubbock, despite opposition from the public. The change will allow for industrial use of the land, which is located northwest of the airport and west of I-27. The decision came after more than an hour of public comment, during which many citizens expressed concerns about the impact on their property.

Homeowners in the area are worried about the effect on their property values and safety. Further details about the zoning change and the concerns of local residents are available from KCBD News.
