STAFF REPORT
Boyd Meier, Building Official, has applied for a certificate of appropriateness to allow
the demolition of a residential structure located at 419 N 7th Street.
Mr. Meier states that the structure was originally tagged on February 22, 2013. Follow up
inspections early last month confirmed there is fire damage to the second story, wide
cracks in the exterior walls (indicating foundation problems) and severe termite damage.
The front porch, many windows, electrical and plumbing would all need to be replaced.
The property owner has signed a demo consent.
The house is listed in the 1989 SPARE Beaumont Survey. SPARE states that the house
was built c. 1925. The house is listed as being typical of larger middle class homes from
the 1920s and '30s.
Exhibits are attached.
