HomeMy WebLinkAboutCA-452R1 DATE: December 13, 1999 TO: Historic Landmark Commission FROM: Stephen C. Richardson, Planning Manager SUBJECT: Request for approval of a certificate of appropriateness to demolish a residential structure at 2211 Ashley. FILE: CA-452 The Planning Director recommends approval of this request. The City of Beaumont Clean Community Department has tagged the residential structure at 2211 Ashley as substandard and in need of demolition. The structure was inspected and found to be in violation of the City of Beaumont Code of Ordinances pertaining to dangerous structures (see attached Inspection Report). The Clean Community Department is asking that the Historic Landmark Commission grant permission to demolish this structure. The structure is not listed in SPARE Beaumont. The structure was tagged in December, 1998. It had been severely damaged by fire. In January, 1999, the property owner entered into a work repair program. That work repair program expired in May, 1999. No work has been done and the structure has not been brought into compliance. Numerous complaints about the burned structure have been received by the Neighborhood Services Division. The City has determined that needed repairs exceed 50% of the appraised value ($13,970 improvements; $18,470 total). The Historic Landmark Commission is asked to review this structure for historical significance and if it should be demolished. Exhibits are attached.
