What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Lufkin City Council unanimously approved a preliminary zoning change for part of Spence Street, overriding the Planning and Zoning Commission's recommendation to deny the request. The change allows a vacant property's zoning to shift from light manufacturing to residential small, which would permit narrower lots and allow for the construction of five new single-family homes.
