STAFF REPORT
In April, staff conducted a rezoning study of property at the intersection of East Lucas
Drive and Helbig Road. The property in question was rezoned to GC-MD-2 (General
Commercial - Multiple Family Dwelling - 2). This rezoning left a triangular shaped
portion of GC-MD (General Commercial - Multiple Family Dwelling) property near the
intersection of East Lucas Drive and Bigner Road. In the interest of not leaving this odd
portion of zoning along East Lucas Drive, and at the request of Beaumont City Council,
staff is conducting a zoning study of the remnant.
Planning staff recommends rezoning of the study area to GC-MD-2, to match the
adjacent property which was recently rezoned.
Please note that final occupancy approval is subject to review and acceptance of
submitted plans and field inspections to verify compliance with applicable codes.
Exhibits are attached.
