Tim Green sworn in as Lubbock City Council District 4 representative - fox34.com

Lubbocks District 4 officially has a new voice on the City Council after Tim Green took his oath Tuesday at Citizens Tower. Green secured the District 4 seat last month after winning a special runoff election against Gary Boren.

Green secured the District 4 seat last month after winning a special runoff election against Gary Boren. He officially steps in for Brayden Rose. Rose recently wrapped up his service representing central Lubbock neighborhoods stretching from Tech Terrace to areas west of Quaker Avenue, including many homes near the South Plains Mall.

Despite just being sworn in, Green wasted no time getting to work. He already attended budget workshops with other council members last week. Mayor Tray Payne and the rest of the council extended an invitation for him to participate, ensuring a quick transition into city financial discussions before the next fiscal year begins.

For thousands of residents living west of Indiana Avenue and south of 19th Street, this means a fresh advocate will represent their specific concerns on city hall matters. Think neighborhood park improvements or traffic flow. Green now holds a direct vote on how city funds are allocated and which local projects receive priority across Lubbock, directly affecting daily life.

His immediate dive into financial planning before even taking the oath suggests a hands-on approach right from the start of his tenure, setting a clear tone for his time in office.
