Littlefield City Zoning Code
ARTICLE 4
ZONING OF ANNEXED TERRITORY
§ 4.01 Permanent/Temporary Zoning Concurrent with Annexation.
An area or areas being annexed to the City of Littlefield may be given permanent zoning concurrently with the annexation, or in the absence of other zoning upon annexation, annexed land shall be assigned a zoning of “A” Agricultural as a temporary designation until a use is proposed that is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan or deemed in the public interest by the City Council. The use of the term “permanent zoning” in this section and elsewhere in this ordinance shall not be construed as negating or limiting the power of the City to zone, rezone, or grant variances and special uses, or to be an assurance that a current zoning classification on any land may not change in the future or the regulations applicable to any particular zoning classification.
