SUBJECT: Request for a Certificate of Appropriateness to add paint a brick chimney.
FILE: CA-2842
STAFF REPORT
Staff recommends denial of the request.
Brenda Byrd is painting her home and would like to stain the existing brick chimney black. The
chimney is located on the west side of her home located at 2550 Louisiana Street. Black is the
chosen accent color for home, however, white is the trim color and a more traditional choice for
chimneys. Staff would suggest white, if the brick should be painted. A quick survey of the
surrounding neighborhood revealed several other structures using black as an accent color, with
chimneys that had been painted white.
The house is in not listed in the SPARE Beaumont Survey.
Exhibits are attached.
