INTRODUCTION
Beaumont is the largest populated city in the southeast portion of Texas. The southeast Texas region is
highly industrialized and significantly agricultural with two navigable rivers (Sabine and Neches) which
allow ocean-going vessels to transport import and export trade to the Gulf of Mexico. Due to the discovery
of oil in the area, the petrochemical industry developed as a major economic contributor for the region.
In the 1980's the oil industry saw a worldwide downturn which resulted in historically high unemployment
rates for southeast Texas and Beaumont. The need for new economic goals and strategies for the area
became apparent. In 1987 the City of Beaumont created a new Economic Development division and
pursued the approval and acquisition of a grant from the Department of Commerce, Economic Development
Administration. With a grant of $500,000 from EDA and a city match of $250,000, the City was able to
begin the financing of the expansion and start-up needs of local small businesses.
The South East Texas Economic Development District, Inc. (SETEDD) was created in 1993 to facilitate the
flow of U.S. Department of Commerce and Economic Development Administration grant and loan funds
for creating new jobs and/or saving existing jobs in the southeast Texas region. SETEDD through a
Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy or CEDS creates objectives and strategies that help to
steer the economic direction of the region. According to the Vision Statement of the CEDS, goals are:
Workforce Development
New and Existing Business Development
Infrastructure
Develop Advanced Materials Cluster
Tourism
Quality of Life
The City of Beaumont and the Small Business Revolving Loan Fund Board use these goals in administering
the City's Small Business Revolving Loan Fund and creating loan opportunities for small businesses that will
better not only those businesses but the City and the entire southeast Texas region.
2
I. PROGRAM ELEMENT TO THE PLAN
A. Goals and Objectives
1. COMMITMENT TO ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT:
The Economic Development Policy Plan consists of goals, objectives, policies, and proposals for
guiding Beaumont's future economic growth and development. Outside assistance is provided
through a contact with the Beaumont Chamber of Commerce for various economic
development activities such as marketing analysis, business retention efforts and working with
business prospects.
2. GOAL: INCREASE THE NUMBER OF PERMANENT JOBS AVAILABLE TO CITIZENS OF BEAUMONT AND
SOUTHEAST TEXAS
Emphasis should be placed on value added jobs which are most likely to lead to further job
creation. Jobs in "export" industries bring money into the region through production of goods
or services that are exported outside of Beaumont. These jobs, which are generally highly
paid, create spendable household income, thus generating new jobs in sales and services.
Beaumont also needs jobs which can be filled by workers who were previously employed in
shipyards, refineries, and chemical plants. These skilled workers are among Beaumont's most
valuable economic resources and will leave the area if new job opportunities are not
developed.
Because of an especially high unemployment rate among Beaumont's sizable minority
population, entry level jobs with on-the-job training are needed to bring unskilled workers
from low-income backgrounds into the workforce.
WHERE WILL THESE JOBS COME FROM? New jobs come from three sources:
1) Expansion of existing business
2) Creation of new, entrepreneurial enterprises
3) Attraction of plants or business from outside the community
Research indicates that expansion of existing business and creation of entrepreneurial
enterprises account for 80 to 90%of all new jobs.
OBJECTIVE NO. 1: MAINTAIN AN EFFECTIVE ROLE FOR THE CITY OF BEAUMONT ECONOMIC
DEVELOPMENT PROCESS
Policy 1.1 Role of the City
The City will continue to serve in the leadership role in the following areas of
economic development:
A. Strategic Planning - analyzing Beaumont's competitive strengths and
weaknesses in the world economy and then taking aggressive action to
capitalize on the strengths and overcome the weaknesses.
3
B. Legislative Advocacy - working closely with Jefferson County, The Port of
Beaumont, Drainage District #6, the Jefferson County Navigation District,
BISD, other municipalities in the region, and other State and Federal
elected officials to secure major funding assistance and to enact or change
Laws to increase the strategic competitiveness of the local/regional
economy.
C. Leveraging and Public/Private Partnerships - using the limited resources
available to the City government, such as grants, development incentives,
infrastructure, land, and staff to attract private sector investments which
will create or retain jobs and/or increase the tax base.
D. Develop and Communicate a Vision of the Future - the City's elected
officials and staff must motivate the community to set its sights on the goal
of becoming a first-class medium-sized city with a quality of life capable of
attracting new private investment and population.
The City will serve in a leadership and cooperative role in the following
area, participating actively and lending whatever support is needed to
other members of the economic development network:
a. Promotion: assisting the Chamber of Commerce, the Convention and
Visitors Bureau, BUILD, Inc/Beaumont Main Street, Entergy, and other
promotional groups in marketing Beaumont as a business location,
tourist destination, etc.
b. Business Attraction: working cooperatively with the Chamber/Economic
Development Council in attracting new industry.
Policy 1.2 The City's Commitment
The City will commit the assets is has available—staff, incentives, land, taxing
authority, infrastructure, tax-exempt bonding authority, and access to State
and Federal grants—to the local and regional economic development efforts.
The City will also strive for excellence in conducting its basic responsibilities of
providing public services and infrastructure, recognizing that an efficient,
competent and responsive city government is one of the prerequisites for
economic growth of a community.
Allocation of resources for construction of new or the repair or extension of
existing city infrastructure and new or revised city services will be
implemented on the basis of need; however, the impact of such actions on the
economic development of the City as a whole will be considered of overriding
importance when deciding where to allocate the City's resources among areas
which are of equal need.
Policy 1.3 Public Return on Investment
The City will examine the potential return on the public's investment when
determining where and how its limited resources will be committed. Return on
public investment will be measured in terms of jobs created, jobs retained,
and broadening of the tax base.
4
OBJECTIVE NO. 2 ENCOURAGE A CLIMATE WHICH FACILITATES BUSINESS GROWTH AND
SUSTAINABILITY
Policy 2.1 The City of Beaumont recognizes that the degree of cooperation and support of
local government plays a major role in business location and expansion
decisions. The City resolves to improve both its efficiency and effectiveness in
providing assistance and services to business.
Policy 2.2 The City of Beaumont will be committed to improving the quality of life for
current and future residents.
In recognition of the connection between economic development, the quality
of life or livability of a city, and the development of a favorable sense of place
among residents and non-residents alike, the City supports the inclusion of
"quality of life" and "environmental quality" considerations in making planning
and development decisions.
Visual community appearance considerations in the city's planning and
development efforts are to be considered important economic development
actions which will improve Beaumont's ability to attract new businesses and
employment opportunities.
In realization of the fact that investing in the overall improvement in the
quality of life or livability of the City is not a goal which can be achieved
overnight, the City will concentrate its resources on the cleanup and
rehabilitation of selected neighborhoods and on the development and
improvement of urban design plans for selected open space, street corridor,
and city entrance or gateway areas.
OBJECTIVE NO. 3 ATTRACT NEW BUSINESSES AND INDUSTRIES TO THE BEAUMONT AREA
Policy 3.1 The City will work with the Chamber of Commerce and other economic
development groups in a team effort to bring new businesses and industries to
the Beaumont area.
Policy 3.2 Efforts to attract new business and industry will be targeted on industries
whose locati.onal needs are consistent with the Beaumont area's locational
attributes.
Policy 3.3 Continue to promote the Beaumont area's resources and quality of life factors
through the efforts of the Beaumont Convention and Visitors Bureau.
OBJECTIVE NO. 4: RETAIN AND EXPAND EXISTING BUSINESSES AND INDUSTRIES
Policy 4.1 The City of Beaumont recognizes that existing businesses and industries are the
community's most important economic resources and will support the efforts of
existing businesses to expand and improve operations.
Policy 4.2 An "outreach" program to foster open lines of communication between the city
government and existing businesses and industries wilt continue.
5
OBJECTIVE NO. 5: STIMULATE THE CREATION OF NEW BUSINESSES
Policy 5.1 Continue the City's Small Business Revolving Loan Fund which provides
financing assistance for new businesses having difficulty in obtaining
conventional financing.
Policy 5.2 Continue to work with the Small Business Development Center at Lamar
University, which assists start up businesses and processes applications for the
City's Small Business Revolving Loan Fund.
OBJECTIVE NO. 6: IMPROVE THE COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES OF THE BEAUMONT AREA
ECONOMY
Policy 6.1 The City of Beaumont will assume a role of partnership with local business and
industry in competing with producers in other regions, state and countries.
This means city actions involving taxes, infrastructure, regulations and
development incentives will focus on making it easier, more efficient and more
advantageous for doing business in Beaumont.
Policy 6.2 Expand the scope of Beaumont's market area by capitalizing on its role as a
regional cent of trade, professional services, entertainment, distribution, and
medical services.
B. Identification of the Area's Financing Problems
A review of Beaumont's capital market and discussions with local small business persons indicate
that local capital market has the following characteristics.
1. Beaumont banks typically follow conservative policies and practices regarding allocation of
deposits for lending purposes.
While this is not unique to Beaumont or the region, the adverse effect of the local and
statewide economy has even further reduced the availability of the banks' capital in
Beaumont. Beaumont banks are looking for additional outside capital projects as a cushion for
their loans.
2. There is reluctance to provide financing to younger or higher risk companies or to companies
located in blighted or depressed areas of the community.
3. There is a shortage of long term reasonably priced commercial financing available to small
business located in Beaumont.
4. Local banks appear to be reluctant to make loans smaller than $75,000.00.
5. There is a lack of capital for minority business.
The Revolving Loan Fund (RLF) will serve a critical function in the City's economic development
program by providing assistance in financing small business that will provide jobs primarily for
persons of low and moderate income, the unemployed, and the underemployed, and projects
which will diversify and strengthen Beaumont's economic base.
6
P
Specific Objectives of the Revolving Loan Fund: The Revolving Loan Fund will promote economic
development by:
1. Creating New Employment Opportunities: The Revolving Loan Fund will be utilized to assist in
expansion or creation of small business enterprises, owned or operated by minorities, women,
or the economically disadvantaged.
2. Increasing Private Financing Availability: Revolving loan fund monies will be used to leverage
private financing for small business, availability of financing for small business enterprises
owned or operated by minorities, women or the economically disadvantaged and to provide
incentives to the financial institutions to make loans to small businesses.
C. Targeting Criteria
The Revolving Loan Fund will target small businesses which can best assist the City in achieving
economic development objectives. The order or priority will be:
1. Small businesses which will create the greatest number of jobs available to the unemployed,
underemployed, or low or moderate income persons at the least cost to the Revolving Loan
Fund;
2. Small businesses which are owned and operated by minorities, women, or the economically
disadvantaged;
3. Small businesses which are located within Beaumont's Community Development and Housing
Neighborhood Strategy Areas.
D: Standards for the Revolving Loan Fund Portfolios
To ensure the effectiveness of the Revolving Loan Fund as an economic development tool, the
following standards will serve as guidelines for Revolving Loan Fund participation:
1. It is the objective of the Revolving Loan Fund to leverage each dollar three or four times
through participation with private sector lending institutions, the SBA and other government
loan programs and private investors.
For each $10,000 of total investment, one job will be generated.
The Revolving Loan Fund will leverage two private sector dollars for every one RLF dollar at a
minimum.
2. Revolving Loan Fund monies will be available to finance the expansion and start-up needs of
small businesses. Financing will be available for fixed assets (plant and equipment) and for
working capital.
The Revolving Loan Fund will give priority to the businesses that create the maximum number
of new jobs.
The Revolving Loan Fund applicants will be screened for potential use of vacant facilities
located in blighted areas of the community.
7
$100,000.00 of the Revolving Loan Fund will be made available to small businesses for low
interest, bridge/gap, $10,000-$20,000 loans to be distributed within 6 months of a natural
disaster if the City of Beaumont is declared a national disaster area. Existing Small Business
loan recipients who are in a current or 1-2 month delinquent status with their loans may
request a deferral of loan payments to help them recover from the natural disaster.
3. Other economic development objectives and standards include the following:
The Revolving Loan Fund borrower will be required to have a 10% equity position in the
project.
Minorities and females will be encouraged to participate in the Revolving Loan Fund.
To prevent displacement of existing capital, all applicants must have written evidence of the
need for the RLF funds.
E. Financing Policies:
The Revolving Loan Fund wilt include the following goats:
1. The Revolving Loan Fund loans are expected to range between$10,000 and $200,000.

Machinery and Equipment: Based upon the useful life of equipment financed
Land and Building: 15-25 years
4. Interest Rates: Interest rates for all Revolving Loan Fund loans will be variable depending on
the needs and financial condition of the applicant. Interest rate floors and ceiling will be
established. The minimum interest rate will be four percent.
5. Special Financing Techniques: Revolving Loan Fund staff and administration will employ
flexible financing techniques designed to meet the needs of the borrowers and to maximize the
effectiveness of the Revolving Loan Fund program. The special financing techniques that may
be utilized include:
Lower than market rates.
Extended amortization period for loans.
Moratoriums on loan payments for a specified period of time up to a maximum of six
months.
8
Existing Loan Program recipients may request to change the payment terms of their loan in
an effort to facilitate the continued repayment of the loan when they are having difficulty
in doing so.
6. Collateral and Equity requirements: Fixed asset financing will be secured by the fixed assets
financed with other assets included if required. Collateral for working capital loans will
include inventory, accounts receivable, fixed assets, cash and personal guarantees. The
Revolving Loan Fund will mandate the contribution of equity by the borrower, requiring not
less than 10%.
7. Restructuring Loans: The Revolving Loan Fund wilt not be involved in restructuring third-party
loans or in refinancing projects.
8. Use of RLF Income: RLF income includes all interest earned on outstanding loan principal,
interest earned on accounts holding idle RLF funds, loan fees and other loan-related earnings.
RLF income does not include repayment of RLF loan principal and any interest remitted to the
U. S. Treasury pursuant to a sequestration of excess funds. RLF income will be used to pay
administrative expenses as long as RLF income and administrative expense are earned in the
same 12-month reporting period and administrative expenses don't exceed 50% of the RLF
income or $100,000.00. Any excess RLF income in a 12-month reporting period will be added
to the RLF capital base and made available for loans. Any administrative expenses that exceed
50% of the RLF income may be paid from the City of Beaumont Community Development Block
Grant Funds and the appropriate RLF Income and Expense Statement will be prepared and
submitted according to EDA regulations.

Fund, participation on loans with the following financial institutions ins anticipated:

Administration, the Southeast Texas Economic Development Foundation (A SBA 504), and other
commercial banks or savings and loans in the community.

PREPARED BY: Jim Thompson, Parks and Recreation Director
MEETING DATE: August 24, 2010
REQUESTED ACTION: Consider designating a representative to apply for a license
from the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission for the
Henry Homberg Golf Course.
RECOMMENDATION
The Administration recommends that Jim Thompson, Parks and Recreation Director, be
designated as the City's representative in its application for a license from the Texas Alcoholic
Beverage Commission for the Henry Homberg Golf Course.
BACKGROUND
At the Work Session held August 17, 2010, staff discussed selling alcoholic beverages at Henry
Homberg Golf Course, similar to the beverage services offered by other golf courses. The Parks
and Recreation Department operates the golf course as an enterprise, and its staff believes that
such sales will allow the Henry Homberg Golf Course to be more competitive, as well as
enhance its opportunities to host tournaments.
There is no conflict with existing City codes, in that alcoholic beverages are currently allowed at
the golf course. However, the City does not have the State license necessary to allow it to make
such sales. The State is requesting that a representative be designated to follow up on the
application and subsequently manage the license.
BUDGETARY IMPACT
The cost of the license for a two-year period is $995. The Golf Course should generate
additional revenues from increased tournaments and make the operation more self- sufficient.
RESOLUTION NO.
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL
OF THE CITY OF BEAUMONT:
THAT James W. Thompson, Parks and Recreation Director, be designated as the City of
Beaumont's representative in its application for a license from the Texas Alcoholic

MEETING DATE: August 24, 2010
REQUESTED ACTION: Council consider approving a contract amendment with
Legacy Community Development Corporation (CDC) to
allow for the acquisition of land for redevelopment.
RECOMMENDATION
The Administration recommends approval.
BACKGROUND
In April,the City entered into a contract with Legacy Community Development Corporation
(CDC)to use $250,000 of HOME funds to acquire two homes,rehabilitate them and market
them as lease-purchase properties for low-to-moderate income families. Legacy CDC is a new
Community Housing Development Organization(CHDO)working to revitalize the north end.
To date, a home on Royal Street and Falcon Street have been acquired and are in the process of
being rehabilitated.
This amendment would allow Legacy to use a portion of the $250,000 to acquire vacant lots in
the north end. These lots could then be used by Legacy for redevelopment. Any and all income
received by Legacy for leased properties must be used toward the organization's affordable
housing activities. Community Development Department staff will be responsible for
monitoring Legacy for HOME Program compliance.

Funding is available form the 2008 and 2009 HOME Program.

(Residential Multiple Family Dwelling-Highest Density)
District to GC-MD (General Commercial-Multiple Family
Dwelling) District for property at 3350 McFaddin.
RECOMMENDATION
The Administration recommends approval of the zone change request.
BACKGROUND
Ravikumar Kanneganti Family Partnership has applied for a zone change.
Mr. Kanneganti states that he has owned the property for the past seven years. The property
consists of commercial suites on the first floor with apartments on the second floor. With the
current RM-H zoning, any commercial tenants that Mr. Kanneganti could possibly rent to must
first go through the specific use process. If the zoning is changed to GC-MD, he proposes to
lease space to a sandwich shop, party and event rental, spa and salon. Currently,two spaces are
leased to a child psychiatrist and a business that deals with weight loss,pain management and
smoking cessation.
The property immediately to the south is zoned GC-MD.
At a Joint Public Hearing held August 16, 2010,the Planning Commission voted 8:0 to approve
a zone change from RM-H(Residential Multiple Family Dwelling-Highest Density)District to
GC-MD(General Commercial-Multiple Family Dwelling)District for property at 3350

BACKGROUND
Nikolaus Klironomos, representing GMK Original, LLC,has applied for a zone change.
Mr. Klironomos states that the purpose for the rezoning is to operate a payday loans and auto sales
business. Properties east and south of the subject property are zoned GC-MD. The properties to the

2 zoning would require an approved specific use permit prior to development.
At a Joint Public Hearing held August 16, 2010,the Planning Commission voted 8:0 to approve

REQUESTED ACTION: Council consider a request for a specific use permit to
allow a boarding house in a GC-MD (General Commercial-
Multiple Family Dwelling) District at 1557 Evalon.
RECOMMENDATION
The Administration recommends approval of the specific use permit subject to the following
conditions:
• The applicant must provide seven parking spaces on the subject property that meet
code or get a special exception to the parking requirement from the Zoning Board of
Adjustment.
• Any grading for the parking lot will be done so that it drains towards the street and
not onto adjacent properties.
• The structure will meet all fire,building and health codes that apply to boarding
houses within the City of Beaumont.
• A drawing from a professional surveyor must be submitted showing the location of
the proposed parking and the location of the house.
BACKGROUND
Joseph Endari has applied for a specific use permit.
The property is currently occupied by a single family residence and an adjacent building. Mr.
Endari would like to convert these structures into a boarding house with an occupancy of two to
seven persons.
The submitted site plan shows five parking spaces at 90° angles with a 14'wide access lane. The
Transportation Engineer states that a 24'wide access lane is required. In addition, an on-site visit
of the property shows that the site plan does not coincide with what is on the ground.
Measurements indicate that there is 18' from the front property line to the front of the house.
At a Joint Public Hearing held August 16, 2010,the Planning Commission voted 8:0 to approve
a specific use permit to allow a boarding house in a GC-MD (General Commercial-Multiple
Family Dwelling)District at 1557 Evalon, subject to the following conditions:
• The applicant must provide seven parking spaces on the subject property that meet

PREPARED BY: Tom Warner, Director of Public Works
MEETING DATE: August 24, 2010
REQUESTED ACTION: Council consider the purchase of a bus wash system for
Beaumont Municipal Transit.
RECOMMENDATION
Administration recommends authorization to purchase a bus wash system from Washing
Equipment of Texas through the Houston-Galveston Area Council in the amount of$191,306.88.
BACKGROUND
The new fully automated drive-through bus wash system is needed to replace the existing system
which has deteriorated due to age. The existing roll-over wash system was installed in 1993 and
has experienced frequent malfunctions in recent years. The water reclamation system no longer
functions. The existing equipment will be removed by the contractor and the new system will be
installed within the existing wash building on the Transit facility property located at 550 Milam
Street. The contractor will use the existing underground tank as part of the new water
reclamation system.
Pricing for this purchase was obtained through the Houston-Galveston Area Council (H-GAC).
H-GAC is a cooperative purchasing association that provides contracted items to governmental
entities with the means to purchase products and services that have been bid in accordance with
all State procurement regulations. Washing Equipment of Texas is a contracted vendor through
H-GAC.
BUDGETARY IMPACT
Grant funds for this expenditure have been awarded to the City under the American Recovery
and Reinvestment Act of 2009. No matching funds are required.
RESOLUTION NO.
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL
OF THE CITY OF BEAUMONT:
THAT the City Manager be, and he is hereby, authorized to approve the purchase of a bus
wash system from Washing Equipment of Texas in the amount of$191,306.88 through the
Houston-Galveston Area Council (H-GAC) Cooperative Purchasing Program for use by
Beaumont Municipal Transit.
