BACKGROUND Dylan Blackshear submitted a minor plat to divide the property located at 7110 Highway 105 into four (4) pieces. The property will consist of three (3) lots along the highway as well as one large lot in the rear. Although the rear lot is zoned RM -H (Residential Multiple Family Dwelling -Highest Density), the driveway, or "flag", of the rear lot is currently zoned GC -MD (General Commercial Multiple Family Dwelling). City of Beaumont subdivision regulations state: "All lots shall abut a public or private street and shall abut the street no less than the required lot width for that lot..." Minimum lot width in GC -MD Districts is 75 feet, which would force the "flag pole" (or portion that extends to the roadway) to be 75 feet wide. Mr. Blackshear is asking to rezone the driveway, or "flag pole", from GC -MD to RM -H, matching the rear lot. Minimum lot width for RM -H is 50 feet. A 50 foot wide driveway should meet all requirements for traffic accessing the rear lot with the same zoning district. At a Joint Public Hearing held August 17, 2015, the Planning Commission recommended 7:0 to approve a request to consider to rezone a piece of property to be used as a driveway from GC - MD (General Commercial -Multiple Family Dwelling) to RM -H (Residential Multiple Family Dwelling -Highest Density) located at 7110 Highway 105.

I Patrick Gibbs requested a rezoning from RS (Residential Single Family Dwelling ) to GC -MD (General Commercial- Multiple Family Dwelling) district for his property located along Cardinal Drive. One of the primary concerns for this request is spot zoning. The reasons being: The request is not in compliance with the comprehensive plan. The subject property is designated as a stable area indicating the zoning is adequate. 2. The request is not consistent with the zoning or land use of the surrounding area, existing uses surrounding the property are either residential or institutional. Thirteen developed/occupied residential lots abut the property. 3. Rezoning would not serve a public purpose furthering public health, safety, morals or general welfare. While most properties along Cardinal Drive are commercial, this particular area is largely zoned and developed as single-family. As such, should this rezoning be approved, it would be surrounded on the north, east and south by property zoned as R -S. One possible alternative would be to join with the adjacent church and apply for RM -H (Residential Multiple Family Dwelling - Highest Density) zoning. This would allow for residential uses and possibly allow for more limited commercial uses that would be more compatible with the surrounding land uses. At a Joint Public Hearing held August 17, 2015, the Planning Commission recommended 5:2 to deny a request to consider a request to rezone property from RS (Residential Single Family Dwelling to GC -MD (General Commercial -Multiple Family Dwelling) or a more restrictive zoning district located along Cardinal Drive.
