& 2, Block 6, Garden Villas Addition into Lot 1-A & Lot 2-A, Block 6 as requested. Commis-
sioner Javed seconded the motion. Motion to approve carried 5:0.
3) Replat-The Sanctuary, Lots 14A, 15A & 16B: Request for approval of a Replat, The Sanc-
tuary Lots 14A, 15A & 16A, Beaumont, Jefferson County, Texas
Applicant: Faust Engineering and Surveying, Inc.
Location: 6493, 6495 & 6497 Bell Pointe
Mr. Boone presented the staff report. Faust Engineering and Surveying, Inc. has requested ap-
proval of a Replat of Lots 14A, 15A, & 16B, The Sanctuary, Beaumont, Jefferson County, Tex-
as. The location of the subject property is 6493, 6495, and 6497 Bell Pointe.
The intention of this Replat is to adjust easements and setbacks to accommodate construction
mistakes. With zero-lot line plots, each lot is afforded easements on the neighboring lot for a roof
overhang and to allow access for repairs. The house at 6493 and the house at 6495 both have
been constructed in the neighboring properties’ easements. This was caused when the first home
was approved and permitted but then not built according to the approved site plan. Then the next
home was issued a stop work order when, during a building inspection, it was discovered that the
footprint of the house was flipped and built opposite to the submitted and approved site plans
thereby resulting in improper setbacks.
The Planning Staff recommends approval of the request.
Slides of the subject property were shown. Mr. Boone stated the purpose of the request is to shift
lot lines for new construction. Twelve (12) notices were mailed to property owners within 200
feet of the subject property. No notices were received in favor or in opposition of the request. No
questions for Mr. Boone or staff. The applicant was present. James Faust, representing Faust En-
gineering and Surveying, Inc., 5550 Eastex Freeway, Suite O, addressed the Commission. Mr.
Faust stated that the first home was built on the wrong zero lot line and the remainder homes
were built on maintenance and access easements. Mr. Faust added, a letter has been drafted by an
attorney addressing the property owners stating that they will be giving up their maintenance and
3

access easements and they will be relocated. No questions for Mr. Faust. No one spoke in favor
or against the request. The public hearing closed. Commissioner Steinhagen made a motion to
approve the Replat of the Sanctuary Lots 14A, 15A & 16B as requested. Commissioner Little
seconded the motion. Motion to approve carried 5:0.
4) 899-OB: Request to abandon approximately 775 feet of the north end of Old Voth Road.
Applicant: Mitch Brackin
Location: Intersection of Old Voth Road and Best Roads
Mr. Boone presented the staff report. Mitch Brackin is requesting an abandonment of a portion
of Old Voth Road, located north of the intersection of Old Voth and Best Roads. This portion of
Old Voth Road is approximately 50' wide and terminates at Pine Island Bayou. The only other
property owner along this portion of Old Voth Road is the LNVA (Lower Neches Valley Au-
thority). The LNVA has signed the application in favor of the abandonment.
According to Mr. Brackin, this portion of Old Voth is frequented by individuals seeking a hidden
location for inappropriate behavior. A gated fence is planned to hopefully eliminate this prob-
lem.
Both AT&T and City Water/Sewer have responded stating that they have facilities in this right-
of-way, but that an easement would meet their access needs.
The Planning staff recommended approval of the request with the retention of an easement.
This item was sent to all interested parties. Slides of the subject property were shown.
The applicant was present. Mitch Brackin, representing Access Surveyors, 11025 Old Voth
Road, addressed the Commission. Mr. Brackin stated he requested the abandonment and there
will be gate for the LNVA to access it. No other questions or comments. The public hearing
closed. Commissioner Little made a motion to approve the request to abandon approximately
775 feet of the north end of Old Voth Road as requested. Commissioner Javed seconded the mo-
tion. Motion to approve carried 5:0.
5) 900-OB: Request for a sidewalk waiver.
Applicant: Fittz & Shipman, Inc.
Location: 3955 North Major Drive
Mr. Boone presented the staff report. Fittz & Shipman, Inc., is requesting a waiver to the re-
quirements for a sidewalk at 3955 N. Major Drive. Reasons stated for the waiver request include
TXDOTs (Texas Department of Transportation) preference to not have a sidewalk installed in
the right-of-way.
With regard to the waiver, the ordinance states:
(3) The planning and zoning commission may grant a waiver to the sidewalk requirement if the
4
Planning and Zoning
October 21, 2019
applicant can prove that there is an engineering reason for not installing a sidewalk. (Chapter
26, Section 26.03.004 (3))
Although a letter has been submitted from an engineer, City Engineering has reviewed the re-
quest and states, “While I agree that several reasonable points are addressed in the letter in fa-
vor of not needing a sidewalk, none of them are considered engineering reasons such as unsafe
slope, inaccessibility, design conflicts, etc. This area seems suitable for sidewalks, and the future
goal is to have the adjacent properties also installing sidewalks, to eventually create a safe pe-
destrian path off the highway."
Although it does appear the sidewalk should not be placed in the right-of-way, it may be placed
on the property, just inside the property line, without interfering with any other requirement.
Slides of the subject property were shown. Planning staff recommended denial of the request.
Mr. Boone stated that the sidewalk was located on the original plans but that TXDOT (Texas
Department of Transportation) stated that the sidewalk was not needed. There was also a letter
from TXDOT stating that permission is needed from them should the property owner decide to
install the sidewalk. Mayor Ames asked what would happen to other parts of Major Drive if the
sidewalk is installed. She also added that if a sidewalk is installed, they will need to consistently
be installed for the remainder of Major Drive. There are currently no sidewalks on adjacent
properties. The Mayor also asked about the cost of installing the sidewalks. Discussion followed
regarding locations of other sidewalks in the vicinity along Major Drive. The Mayor also stated
she wanted to remain consistent and not take away from future sidewalk waivers. Mr. Boone
stated that considering the cost is a huge factor. The applicant was present. Kenny Vaughn, 3955
North Major Drive, addressed the Commission. Mr. Vaughn stated that the sidewalk was not on
the original plans but was instructed to add the sidewalk (did not mention who told him) to the
plans or the plans would not be approved. No further discussion or questions. Public hearing was
not required. Commissioner Little made a motion to approve the request for a sidewalk waiver as
requested for 900-OB. Commissioner Steinhagen seconded the motion. Motion to approve car-
ried 5:0.
6) 901-OB: Request to abandon an approximately 50’x310’portion of Evalon Avenue.
Applicant: MG Real Properties, Ltd.
Location: Between Jirou and Gulf Streets
Mr. Boone presented the staff report. MG Real Properties, Ltd., is requesting to abandon a por-
tion of Evalon Avenue, located between Jirou and Gulf Streets as they own all adjacent proper-
ties. Properties west of this location would continue to have access from Jirou Street. The appli-
cant states that the City has not properly maintained this street and they would like to be able to
better maintain the pavement as sole owners of the property.
Entergy, AT&T and City Water/Sewer have responded that they all have facilities in this right-
of-way. Although they all state that their facilities cannot be relocated, they are not opposed to
the request as long as an easement is retained.

dressed the Commission. No questions for Mr. Broussard. Commissioner Senigaur made a mo-

JOINT PUBLIC HEARINGS
Mayor Ames called the Joint Public Hearings of October 21, 2019 to order and explained the
purpose of the Joint Public Hearing process. Mayor Ames turned the meeting over to Chairman

7) 2396-P: Request for a Specific Use Permit to allow a sports bar in a GC-MD (General
Commercial-Multiple Family Dwelling) District.
Applicant: Amaray Mathew
Location: 3430 Concord Road
Mr. Boone presented the staff report. Amaray Mathew has applied for a Specific Use Permit to
allow a sports bar at 3430 Concord. Mr. Mathew states that he envisions the space as an elegant
adult lounge for sports, birthday parties and lots of fun. The lounge will be open from 8 p.m. - 2
a.m., seven days per week. The sports bar will occupy a space in a commercial strip which also
houses a beauty school and retail. Security will be provided in the form of 3-4 bouncers.
In 1997, City Council approved a specific use permit to allow an entertainment, recreational ser-
vices and rental hall with the occasional sale of alcohol at this location. In 2011, a drinking place
was approved, and then in 2012, a bottle club was approved. Those businesses have since closed
down and the space is now vacant. The immediate area facing the building along Concord and
Steelton is developed commercially.
Slides of the subject property were shown. Twenty-nine (29) notices were mailed to property
owners within 200 feet of the subject property. No responses were received in favor and one re-
sponse was received in opposition.
Staff recommended approval of the request subject to the following conditions:
1. “No Loitering” signs shall be posted in the parking lot.
2. Proper security shall be provided.

October 21, 2019
No questions or comments for Mr. Boone. The applicant was not present. A representative of the
applicant addressed the Commission. Bernard Soularie, 1145 Magnolia, addressed the Commis-
sion. Mr. Soularie stated the applicant had an emergency and was unable to make the meeting.
He stated that the establishments would be a sports bar with flat screens, table games, music and
security will be provided inside and outside of the establishment. Chairman Nejad asked if Mr.
Mathew had any club experience. Mr. Soularie replied he is not. A brief discussion followed re-
garding security. The public hearing opened. Richard Tinkle, 3425 Concord Road, addressed the
Commission. Mr. Tinkle spoke against the request. He stated that Beaumont does need more
businesses but not a bar or club in the neighborhood. He added that past clubs that occupied the
same location had plenty of loitering and littering. He also addressed concerns regarding parking.
Daniel Donald, 7850 Lawrence Drive, addressed the Commission. Mr. Donald stated that he is a
friend of Mr. Mathew and will also be employed at the establishment. He stated the parking is
sufficient and will have private security inside and out. He added that trash will be picked every
night and the establishment will serve beer and wine and will be more of a sports bar. Mr. Sou-
larie addressed the Commission to again. He reiterated that security will be provided on the in-
side and outside of the establishment, trash will be picked up every night and he assured the
Commission that no loitering will take place. Commissioner Senigaur made a motion to approve
the request for a Specific Use Permit to allow a sports bar in a GC-MD (General Commercial-
Multiple Family Dwelling) District as requested for file 2396-P with the following conditions:
1. “No Loitering” signs shall be posted in the parking lot.
2. Proper security shall be provided inside and outside the establishment.
3. Trash must be picked up nightly.
Commissioner Javed seconded the motion. Motion to approve carried. 5:0. The Mayor added that
if the conditions are not met for the Specific Use Permit can it be revoked. Mr. Cooper, City At-
torney, added that the SUP can be reviewed and revoked by City Staff if the conditions are not
met.
8) 2397-P: Request for an amended Specific Use Permit to allow the expansion of a bar in a
GC-MD (General Commercial-Multiple Family Dwelling-2) District.
Applicant: L.W. Beaumont, L.L.C.
Location: 6210 Phelan Boulevard
Mr. Boone presented the staff report. L.W. Beaumont, L.L.C. received a Specific Use Permit to
allow a sports bar at 6210 Phelan Boulevard last October. Under the current approved Specific
Use Permit, the outside service area was not shown on the site plan. Since opening, they have
found they need additional bathrooms to service the outside area. Inspections revealed restrooms
were under construction without the benefit of a permit. The staff report stated that a stop work
order was issued, but it was later clarified that a stop work order was not actually issued.
Little Woodrow's is located at the southeast most tip of the Colonnade Shopping Center. As a
requirement for the original Specific Use Permit, screening and a masonry wall were installed.
The new addition will be approximately 1500 square feet and include new cooler/storage space
and additional restrooms. This addition will be located along the east side of the building
providing additional buffer from noise for the adjacent residential neighborhood.

October 21, 2019
It should be noted that concerns have been raised by other tenants about the availability of ade-
quate parking. A second parking analysis was conducted as part of this revised Specific Use
Permit. It was found that while demand for the parking spaces at the interior of the shopping
center is high, the minimum number of spaces has been provided at the shopping center, albeit
some spaces are located farther afield at the perimeter of the shopping center.
Slides of the subject property were shown.
Thirteen notices were mailed to property owners within 200 feet of the subject property. No re-
sponses were received in favor and several were received in opposition. Staff recommended ap-
proval of the request. Discussion followed regarding the responses received in opposition con-
cerning parking, decrease in property values, trash, questions about whether or not height of
fence is eight (8) feet, noise and live music. Mr. Boone added that a traffic analysis was per-
formed by the Engineering department and it was determined that there is adequate parking. No
questions for Mr. Boone or Planning staff. The establishment has been operating under a tempo-
rary Certificate of Occupancy Permit for several months. The applicant was present. Robert Wil-
son, representing L. W. Beaumont, L.L.C., 3711 Briarpark, Houston, Texas addressed the Com-
mission. Mr. Wilson stated that he did not realize that he needed to amend the Specific Use Per-
mit to increase the square footage of the facility nor did he realize that it would affect the size of
the restroom area. He added that a stop work order was never issued as stated in the staff report.
He also added that he stated at the Public Hearing he attended in 2018, he mentioned there would
occasionally be live music at the establishment, but if live music is an issue for the neighbors, he
will not have live music. He stated that he will have his landscaping company monitor the ease-
ment area for trash and debris. He also stated that he will ensure that the fence that has been con-
structed is an eight (8) foot fence, extending any areas that are less than 8 feet. There is currently
security policing the area and he will use cinder block to construct any additional fencing. Dis-
cussion followed between Councilmember Neild, Councilmember Getz and the Building Offi-
cial, Boyd Meier, regarding a stop work order being issued. Plans were submitted for revision
approximately two months ago per the Building Official. More discussion followed regarding
live music. The public hearing opened. Marsha Cavett, representing Basic Foods, 6220 Phelan
Boulevard, addressed the Commission. Mrs. Cavett stated that she is an investor of Basic Foods
and she has lost business due to the opening of Little Woodrow’s. She spoke against the request.
James Rhodes, 535 Parson, addressed the Commission. Mr. Rhodes stated he owns the unoccu-
pied property directly behind the establishment. There is always trash on his property and he can
hear the live music. He also spoke against the request. No questions for Mr. Rhodes. Theresa
Gore, wife of James Rhodes, 535 Parson, addressed the Commission. Mrs. Gore stated the live
music is too loud and there are at least two concerts a month. She spoke against the request. Vic
Nelson, 7325 Halliday Lane, addressed the Commission. Mr. Nelson stated he too is an investor
of Basic Foods and added that the parking is horrible. Mr. Nelson spoke against the request. Mr.
Wilson addressed the Commission for rebuttal. He stated he will rectify the fence issues and in-
stall the cinder block fence, cease the live music and maintain the trash along the fence line. He
concluded that he feels vagrants are creating the trash issues. No further discussion from Mr.
Wilson. Councilmember Getz had a brief discussion regarding loitering and drinking in the park-
ing lot surrounding private properties in the area. Law enforcement cannot address any issues if
an offense is not committed. Kevin Fielder, Regional Manager for Little Woodrow’s, 3616
8
Planning and Zoning
October 21, 2019
Richmond Avenue, Houston, Texas, addressed the Commission. He stated loitering in the park-
ing lot occurred before the Little Woodrow’s opened and there was no police presence. Once Lit-
tle Woodrow’s opened, off-duty police patrol the area on Fridays and Saturdays and the loitering
has declined he added. Brief discussion followed regarding parking. Another discussion ensued
between the Mayor and the City Attorney regarding no loitering signs and trash in the parking lot
and behind the establishments along the strip. No other discussion. Commissioner Little made a
motion to approve the request for an Amended Specific Use Permit to allow the expansion of a
bar in a GC-MD (General Commercial-Multiple Family Dwelling) district as requested for 2397-
P with the following conditions:
1. Eight (8) foot fence be installed.
2. Trash is picked up around establishment on a daily basis.

Commissioner Senigaur seconded the motion. Motion to approve carried 5:0.
9) 2398-Z: Request for a Rezoning of the rear portion of a commercial property from RS (Resi-
dential Single Family Dwelling) to GC-MD-2 (General Commercial-Multiple Family Dwelling-
2) District.
Applicant: Richard Faust-Faust Engineering and Surveying, Inc.
Location: 7380 Bythewood Road, rear
Mr. Boone presented the staff report. Richard Faust of Faust Engineering and Surveying is re-
questing a Rezoning for the rear of the property located at 7380 Bythewood Road. Quail Land
Company has purchased this tract of land as well as the tract to the north, which is zoned GC-
MD (General Commercial - Multiple Family Dwelling). Plans are to develop the property as a
unit and therefore needs to be zoned consistently.
The Development Strategies diagram of the Comprehensive Plan designates this property to be
within a neighborhood growth unit area. Effective planning strategies typically encourage com-
mercial uses at major intersections and high density housing along major arterial streets. Our
City's Major Street and Highway Plan displays that Tram Road is a Secondary Arterial and
Bythewood Road is a local street. Within the past fifteen (15) years, three (3) new houses have
been constructed along Bythewood Road. Rezoning this property for commercial use could en-
croach into a viable residential neighborhood.
Slides of the subject property were shown. Fourteen (14) notices were mailed within 200 feet of
the subject property. No responses were received in favor and none were received in opposition.
Staff recommended denial of the request. Mr. Boone briefly addressed reasons why the Planning
staff recommended denial of the request stating the neighborhood is viable. The applicant was
present. Richard Faust, representing Faust Engineering and Surveying, 5550 Eastex Freeway,
Suite O, addressed the Commission. Mr. Faust passed around exhibits to the Commission of the
subject matter. Discussion followed regarding the exhibits. Mr. Faust stated that the area is grow-
ing commercially and there is no room for growth residentially. Brief discussion followed re-
garding the zoning. No other questions or discussion for Mr. Faust. The public hearing opened.

Planning and Zoning
October 21, 2019
Henri Eckhardt (Trey) 2535 Highway 69, Lumberton, Texas, addressed the Commission. He
stated he purchased property to the north from the subject property. He spoke in favor of the re-
quest and agreed the area should be zoned commercial. Brief discussion followed. No further
discussion. The public hearing closed. Commissioner Steinhagen made a motion to deny the re-
quest for a Rezoning of the rear portion of a commercial property from RS (Residential Single-
Family Dwelling) to GC-MD-2 (General Commercial-Multiple Family Dwelling-2) District as
requested for 2398-Z. Commissioner Senigaur seconded the motion. Motion to deny carried
4:1(Little).
10) 2400-P: Request for a Specific Use Permit to allow three (3) RV’s to be parked temporarily,
for disaster relief, in an RM-H (Residential Multiple Family Dwelling-Highest Density) zoning.
Applicant: Central Beaumont Congregation of Jehovah’s Witnesses
Location: 2350 North Major Drive
Mr. Boone presented the staff report. The Central Beaumont Congregation of Jehovah's Witness-
es, has applied for a specific use permit to allow for temporary parking and hookup of recrea-
tional vehicles (RV’s) in an RM-H (Residential Multiple Family-High Density) District. The
property is located at 2350 N. Major Drive.
The Jehovah's Witnesses Disaster Relief is a temporary relief effort working under the direction
of the Texas Disaster Relief Committee of Jehovah’s Witness. This group has determined that
there is an immediate need for assistance for church members in repairing their homes after
Tropical Storm Imelda. The applicant states that the RV's will be used for housing only and will
be placed at the center of the property, behind the existing church, on paved property that will
not impede vehicular traffic. Three (3) RV’s will be located on the property for four (4) months.
The church made a similar request in 2009, which was denied, then received a Specific Use Per-
mit in January of last year, due to Hurricane Harvey. The same conditions are being suggested
for this request. Landscaping was discussed as the original Specific Use Permit granted to the
church required the church to maintain the existing 30' buffer or install screening with the re-
duced 10' buffer. Three (3) RV hookups exist at the property, but the electrical is being upgrad-
ed from 30 amp to 50 amp breakers.
Slides of the subject property were shown. Twenty-nine (29) notices were mailed to property
owners within 200 feet of the subject property. No responses were received in favor and none
were received in opposition.
Staff recommended approval of this request subject to the following conditions:
1. The temporary parking and hookup of recreational vehicles shall not extend beyond February
of 2020.
2. No storage of building materials.
3. All food trailers and storage subject to approval of the Health Department.
4. All fuel tanks subject to approval of Fire Marshal.
No questions for Mr. Boone. The applicant was not present. Councilmember Neild spoke in fa-
