STAFF REPORT
The Planning Manager recommends approval.
The City of Beaumont Planning Division has applied for a zone change
from RCR-H/HC (Residential Conservation and
Revitalization-H/Historic-Cultural Landmark Preservation Overlay)
District to GC-MD/HC (General Commercial-Multiple Family
Dwelling/Historic-Cultural Landmark Preservation Overlay) District.
The property is located at 2611 Laurel.
In 1989, the City of Beaumont Planning Division performed a zoning
study for a portion of the Old Town area. The proposed zoning
followed lot lines. The subject property, which consists of the West
23 2= of Lot 2 and the East 26 2= of Lot 3, Block 1, Palm Place
Addition, was divided by GC-MD and RCR zoning. The zoning
boundaries basically cut the building on the property in half.
Cliff Huebel owns and operates East Texas Counseling Services, LLC at
2611 Laurel. When the zoning issue was brought to the City=s
attention, staff initiated the zone change request.
