The Lubbock City Council gave its first approval on the proposed zoning rules for city alcohol sales.

The council says they feel it is better to be prepared for if and when Lubbock goes wet rather than be playing catch up if an election passes.

The council ruled that drive-thru beer stores will not be permitted and there is talk of restricting alcohol vendors from being within 1000 feet of a school, hospital or church.
