Cooper, Esq. City Attorney DD P.O. Box 3827 Beaumont, Texas 77704-3827 Dear Mr. Cooper: This refers to seven annexations (adopted between December 8, 1981 and April 8, 1986) and two deannexations (Ordinance Nos. 03-096 (2003) and 08-061 (2008)) to the City of Beaumont in Jefferson County, Texas, submitted to the Attorney General pursuant to Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act, 42 U.S.C. 1973c. We received your submissions on December 19, 2008 and January 21, 2009; supplemental information was received through March 9, 2009. The Attorney General does not interpose any objection to the specified changes. However, we note that Section 5 expressly provides that the failure of the Attorney General to object does not bar subsequent litigation to enjoin the enforcement of the changes. In addition, as authorized by Section 5, we reserve the right to reexamine these submissions if additional information that would otherwise require an objection comes to our attention during the remainder of the sixty- day review period. Procedures for the Administration of Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act(28 C.F.R. 51.41 and 51.43). Sincerely, Christopher Coates Chief, Voting Section
