Home My WebLink About2402-PDATE: November 18, 2019 TO: Planning Commission and City Council FROM: Chris Boone, Director of Planning and Community Development SUBJECT: Consider a request for a Specific Use Permit to allow a duplex in an RS (Residential Single - Family Dwelling) District. FILE: 2402-P STAFF REPORT Jeff Akhtar is requesting a Specific Use Permit to allow a duplex at 8575 Highway 105. The approximately 5,000 square foot building would be divided equally into two (2) residences. Although the property is surrounded by single family homes in an RS (Residential Single -Family Dwelling) District, it is located on a busy major arterial. Therefore, staff finds low density multi -family development to be acceptable for this location. Staff recommends approval of this request.

We would like to build a New Multi -Family residence on the current property as described ( Akhtar Avenue Subdivision Lot #1) as recorded 8575 Hwy 105. Prior recording known as Tract #61 Neches Terrace Subdivision in Beaumont, Texas 77708 Due to TXDOT single entry limitations to listed property we are proposing a Plot Plan for a 2 story Tri-Plex and also a 1 story Duplex for review and acceptance to build on the said property above. We fill that either property would enhance the property values, add to enhancing the beautification of surrounding residences, and promote growth based on upgrading the above property. Addressed are the concerns regarding the new construction of a multi -family home on said lot above. Current zoning for property is single family or special use. We hope the zoning of current property will change to that of surrounding properties on Hwy 105 which are listed as multi -family. Listed are Zoning Ordinance eight conditions that must be meet. #1- The property use will be that of the surrounding properties and will not be injurious to the use and enjoymeny of other properties. The new construction will only increase the adjacent properties values and others within the immediate vicinity. #2- The proposed new construction will not impede the normal development of the surrounding area but will only enhance that. #3- Adequate utilities are already in place ant the required tie-ins are to be addressed as needed. Property drainage existing with out fall on Hwy 105. Property to maintain grading to not alter drainage currently in place. #4- The design of driveways and parking provides safe and convenient movement and will adhere to TXDOT requirements. New sidewalk as required will provide pedestrian path to adjacent property lines. #5- Adequate prevention measures will be addressed during construction and upon completion of home to prevent any odors, fumes, dust, and noise. #6- Upon completion of home, the exterior lighting installed will be directional for property safety, and for vehicle parking. It's not to disturb or adversely effect the general public or neighboring properties. #7- The proposed construction allows for sufficient landscaping and screening to insure harmony and enhancements to adjacent properties and surrounding area. #8- The proposed usage of property is in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan. The Proposed new construction to follow all of the City of Beaumont Building Codes as required. Any other information needed in regards to the proposed change in zoning can and will be addressed as required.
