FILE: CA-2892 STAFF REPORT Keith Folsom, Facilities Maintenance Director for the City of Beaumont, is requesting to remove the roof/ceiling structure, wood doors and window sashes of the Tyrrell Park Community Building. Enclosed is the scope of work. The roof of this structure was damaged extensively during Hurricane Rita. A large portion of the roof has collapsed. Due to a lack of funding, the structure has not been repaired. In order to stabilize the structure, the City of Beaumont is requesting permission to remove all parts of the structure that are wood. In addition, there are plans to fill in the 2 fountains at this location. The purpose of this request is to stabilize the building until such time that funding and a use for the building can be secured. Staff recommends approval of the request. Exhibits are attached.
