The accessory structure will be made of wood and the panels will be vertical. It will have
a charcoal colored, three (3) tab shingle roof, with the pitch rising four (4) inches every
twelve (12) inches. The setbacks displayed on Mr. Ester's site plan are in conformance
with Sec. 29.03.024 District area and height regulations of our City's Ordinances.
All appropriate permits must be obtained through the Building Codes department prior to
the construction of the accessory building if the Historic Landmark Commission grants
approval.

1. Must paint the accessory structure to match the main structure.
The applicant was present. Fred Allen, 2535 Louisiana Street, addressed the Cornrnission. He
stated that his wife had lived in this home for eleven (11) years and that he had lived there for
three (3). He added that they previously had a shed on the other side of the house that was
destroyed by Hurricane Laura. Mr. Allen stated that the new shed would be built for them by
Home Depot and that it would be more sturdy and convenient. Finally, he stated that it will be
painted to match the colors of the main house as closely as possible.
Vice -Chairman LaBiche asked Mr. Allen if he understood the proposed condition and he
confirmed his understanding.
Commissioner Goodness moved to approve the request for a Certificate of Appropriateness to
construct an accessory building, for the property at 2535 Louisiana Street, as requested in file

The fence was installed without the benefit of an approved Certificate of Appropriateness.
The chain -link fence is six (6) feet in height, situated in the front yard, and visible from the
street right-of-way.
Sec. 28.03.018 (g)(3)(F) Historic -Cultural Landmark Preservation Overlay District states
wrought iron and metal fences must be compatible with the style and period of the main

Historic Landmark Commission
November 8, 2021
The property is in the 1990 SPARE Beaumont Survey. SPARE states that the apartments
were built c. 1940. The property was listed as an example of middle class housing built in
the 1930's in Beaumont.
Slides of the subject property and surrounding area were shown.
Staff recommended denial of the request.
Commissioner Makin asked when the fence was installed. Mrs. Engman replied that City staff
was made aware of it around a month and a half ago, but was not certain how long it had been
there. She added that the applicant was present and perhaps could provide that information.
The applicant was present. Pamela Murphy, 2202 Angelina Street, addressed the Commission.
She stated that she put up the fence because she is disabled and needs the fence in order to tend
to her dogs.
Vice -Chairman LaBiche asked Ms. Murphy if she was aware that her home was in the historic
district and subject to regulations. Ms. Murphy stated that the home had been in her family for
years and that she did not understand how the Commission could tell her what to do with her
property.
Commissioner Bell asked when the fence was installed and Ms. Murphy replied that it was about
two (2) months ago.
Commissioner Makin asked the applicant if she had considered a wrought iron fence and Ms.
Murphy replied that she could not afford that. She added that her fence is not hurting anyone
and is not blocking the road.
Commissioner Berube stated that he felt for the applicant, but that the regulations have been
created for a reason and that exceptions for one person would require exceptions for others.
Vice -Chairman LaBiche explained the purpose and role of the Commission and added that other
property owners in the area may not appreciate the fence.
Ms. Murphy stated that there is a "tent city" of homeless people nearby with a fenced in area and
questioned why that was allowed.
Commissioner Bell asked Ms. Murphy if the backyard was or could be fenced in order to house
the dogs. Ms. Murphy stated that the fence in the fiont is already there and she cannot afford to
redo a fence in the backyard.
Commissioner Makin moved to deny the request for a Certificate of Appropriateness to install a
fence in the fiont yard, for the property at 2202 Angelina Street, as requested in file PZ2021-336.
Commissioner Berube seconded the motion.
Historic Landmark Commission
November 8, 2021
Commissioner Sigee stated that this decision was a hard one. He stated that he is familiar with
the homeless encampment that Ms. Murphy mentioned. He explained that the Commission has
to make decisions based on the regulations in place and on what is before them.
The motion to deny the request carried 9:0.
Ms. Murphy asked how long she would have to take down the fence and Mrs. Engman answered
that she would discuss this with her after the meeting.
Discussion followed about the homeless encampment and the Commission requested that City
staff investigate and take enforcement action. Officer Bates stated that she is aware of the
situation and has already begun an enforcement process.
Brief further discussion followed about fencing regulation in the historic district and the City at
large.
3) PZ2021-355: Request for a Certificate of Appropriateness to replace all trim of the
house, windows, doors, railings, columns and fascia boards.
Applicant: Kawana Dixon
Location: 2280 Hazel Avenue
Mrs. Engman presented the staff report. Home owner, Kawana Dixon, requests permission to
replace all trim of the house, windows, doors, railings, columns and fascia boards to keep as
natural sealed wood located at 2280 Hazel Avenue. The replacement of the wood will match
what currently exists with the exception of the paint. Mrs. Dixon requests permission to have the
replaced wood remain unpainted and sealed as its natural color. The body of the house will be
painted white.
This home is categorized as a National Folk house. Examples of this style house are in A Field
Guide to American Houses (McAlester et al., pg. 90). Unpainted wood does not seem
appropriate for homes of this era, unless they are a log cabin style.
The house is in the 1990 SPARE Beaumont Survey. SPARE states that the house was built in
1925. The house is typical of middle class housing built to accommodate the growing population
in Beaumont in the 1920's.
Slides of the subject property and an example of the requested trim color were shown.
Staff recommended approval of the request with the following condition:
1. Trim must be painted a color accepted by the Historic Landmark Commission or an
accepted color approved by staff from the America's Heritage Exterior Historic Colors
brochure.
Brief discussion followed about allowed colors in the historic district and how the public can
access information about them.
4
Historic Landmark Commission
November 8, 2021
The applicant was not present.
Commissioner Berube stated that he would not support this request, unless a high quality wood
were used. Commissioner Makin asked if the approved colors were explained to the applicant.
Mrs. Engman replied that she was shown the approved colors, but wanted to go with a natural
wood color.
Discussion followed about wood stain options and how the quality of the wood affects the
quality of the stain.
Commissioner Sigee stated that he would support approving the request with the proposed
condition because it covers the concerns of the Commission. Mrs. Engman agreed that the
condition would allow staff to approve a color if it is in the approved pallet or the applicant
would need to come back to the Commission if another color were selected. Vice -Chairman
LaBiche stated that a piece of wood stained with the requested color would be needed if the
request is brought before the Commission again.
Commissioner Sigee moved to approve the request for a Certificate of Appropriateness to
construct an accessory building, for the property at 2280 Hazel Avenue, as requested in file
PZ2021-355 with the following condition:
1. Trim must be painted a color accepted by the Historic Landmark Commission or an
accepted color approved by staff from the America's Heritage Exterior Historic Colors
brochure.
Commissioner Makin seconded the motion. The motion to approve the request carried 9:0.
4) PZ2021-361: Request for a Certificate of Appropriateness for new construction of town
homes.
Applicant: Jeffery Joubert
Location: 325 N 7th Street
Mrs. Engman presented the staff report. Property owner, Jeffery Joubert, has requested a
Certificate of Appropriateness to allow the construction of new town homes. The property is
located at 325 N 7th Street.
The new structures will consist often (10) units total on the property. The construction methods
employed would dictate that the structures will be constructed on a slab foundation with wood
framing. The siding will be of a 1 x 6 profile and made of HardiPlank with a body color of
Needle Point Navy (SW 0032) and trim color of Classic Light Buff (SW 0050). This color
scheme was chosen from the approved pallet. The roof will have a 7/12 pitch with each unit
having a front gable and be made of dark grey 30-year architectural shingles.
The orientation of the townhomes will have the front gables facing towards N 7th Street with the
side of the townhomes and parking lot facing Liberty Avenue. The site plan is subject to an
approved replat by the Planning Commission.

Historic Landmark Commission
November 8, 2021
Slides of the subject property, site plan and elevation drawings were shown. Mrs. Engman added
that the parking on the site plan will need to be amended. She also stated the applicant attended
a predevelopment meeting with City staff where the parking and other details were discussed.
Staff recommended approval of the request with the following conditions:
1. Storm shutters must be located on all windows and must be architecturally
appropriate.
2. All windows must be six (6) over one (1) in appearance.
3. Roof overhang minimum shall be 12".
4. Door will be of craftsman style and the color of it shall be chosen from America's

5. The columns on the fi-ont porch shall be Craftsman style tapered columns.
Mrs. Engman stated that the applicant was not able to attend the meeting today.
Commissioner Makin asked for clarification on the parking and Mrs. Engman went over the
parking on the site plan again.
Commissioner Berube asked about the setback on 7th Street and Mrs. Engman replied that it will
be twenty-five (25) feet. She also added that this decision will be the first in a further process, as
this case would then be required to go to the Planning Commission for a specific use permit and
replat.
Commissioner Bell asked about the square footage of the townhomes and if they will be for sale
or lease. After consulting her records, Mrs. Engman stated that the townhomes would be around
875 square feet and would be for lease.
Commissioner Makin asked if the applicant had previously built townhomes, Mrs. Engman
replied that the applicant is an established homebuilder.
Commissioner Goodness asked for clarification on the window appearance and Mrs. Engman
stated that they would be six (6) over one (1).
Vice -Chairman LaBiche provided an example of a Craftsman style column that could be used.
Discussion followed concerning the elevation of the townhomes and the parking layout. Vice -
Chairman LaBiche commented on more modern looking apartments nearby and that the
proposed townhomes would be better in terms of keeping with the historic nature of the district.
Commissioner Makin moved to approve the request for a Certificate of Appropriateness for new
construction of town homes, for the property at 325 N 7'h Street, as requested in file PZ2021-361
with the following conditions:
1. Storm shutters must be located on all windows and must be architecturally appropriate.

THERE BEING NO OTHER BUSINESS, THE MEETING WAS ADJOURNED AT 4:12
P.M.
DATE: December 13, 2021
TO: Historic Landmark Commission
FROM: Demi Engman, Senior Planner
SUBJECT: Request for a Certificate of Appropriateness to replace garage doors, install
gutters, replace porch posts, and paint house.
FILE: PZ2021-377
STAFF REPORT
Eric Newell is seeking permission to replace garage doors, porch posts, install gutters, and paint
the house located at 2445 Louisiana Street. He has requested the exterior body paint be Secret
Garden (SW6181), trim to be Downing Sand (SW2822), shutters to be Naval (SW6244), and
front door to be Interesting Aqua (SW6220). Please reference the paint swatches located in
your packet.
Mr. Newell intends to replace two (2) garage doors with two (2) new garage doors from
Overhead Door Company, which will be almond in color with windows. Additionally, he would
like to replace the rotting front porch posts. He requests permission for the new posts to be
square -only in profile and wood stained. Lastly, he requests to install gutters.
This home is categorized as a Modern Ranch Style house. Examples of this style house are in A
Field Guide to American Houses (McAlester et al., pg. 479-480). The existing square top porch
posts with decorative design elements seem appropriate for Ranch Style homes during the
1970s era. Changing the posts to an all square profile does not seem appropriate for homes of
this era.
Staff recommends denial of the request to replace the porch posts. Staff recommends approval
of the request to paint house, install gutters and replace garage doors with the following
conditions:
1. The gutters shall be installed to blend in with and be the same color as the trim.
The property is not listed in the SPARE Beaumont Survey.

Reason for Request of a Certificate of Appropriateness:
Need to repaint home, replace garage doors, and rotting front porch posts. Would like to put in
a new wooden fence if we have enough money left.
Type of Request: Paint, Fencing, Miscellaneous (new garage door/posts/gutters)
Comments: My house is in dire need of painting, it has some rotted wood, but the primary issue is the
flaking painting. We experienced a few inches water in our guest bedroom during Imelda, which
resulted in work being done to the foundation. Now we are working on the cosmetic issues on the
outside and inside.
You previously approved a request to basically paint it what it is now, in 2018, but we would like to
make a few revisions the plan with a deeper green paint scheme (SW 6181 Sweet Garden), blue shutters
(SW6244 Naval), and tannish trim (SW 2822 Downing Sand). The trim may change slightly to match the
new garage doors. The new front porch posts are to be stained wood. We feel these colors are
appropriate for a 60's style ranch home.
We choose an almond door with windows out of the four-color options available from garage doors
from Overhead Doors.
Additionally, on the advance of the engineers who oversaw the foundation repair, we are likely going to
put in gutters around the roof of the house.
Finally, if we have enough money (not likely given the extent of work being done), we would like to
install a new six or eight foot fence similar to ones that have gone up in our neighborhood

RANCH (ca. 1935-75)
This style was originated in the mid-t930s by several creative California
architects. It gained in popularity during the 1940s to become the domi-
nant style throughout the country during the decades of the '50s and '60s.
The popularity of "rambling" Ranch houses was made possible by the
country's increasing dependence on the automobile. Streetcar suburbs of
the late-t9th and early-aoth centuries still used relatively compact house
forms on small lots because people walked to nearby streetcar lines. As the
automobile replaced streetcars and buses as the principal means of personal
transportation in the decades following World War 11, compact houses
could be replaced by sprawling designs on much larger lots. Never before
had it been possible to be so lavish with land, and the rambling form of
the Ranch house emphasizes this by maximizing facade width (which is
further increased by built-in garages that are an integral part of most
Ranch houses).
The style is loosely based on early Spanish Colonial precedents of the
American southwest, modified by influences borrowed from Craftsman
and Prairie modernism of the early aoth century.
Asymmetrical one-story shapes with low-pitched roofs dominate. Three
common roof forms are used: the hipped version is probably the most
common, followed by the cross -gabled, and, finally, side -gabled examples.
There is usually a moderate or wide eave overhang. This may be either
boxed or open, with the rafters exposed as in Craftsman houses. Both
wooden and brick wall cladding are used, sometimes in combination.
Builders frequently add modest bits of traditional detailing, usually loosely
based on Spanish or English Colonial precedents. Decorative iron or
wooden porch supports and decorative shutters are the most common.
Ribbon windows are frequent as are large picture windows in living areas.
Partially enclosed courtyards or patios, borrowed from Spanish houses, are
a common feature. These private outdoor living areas to the rear of the
house are a direct contrast to the large front and side porches of most late
t9th- and early loth -century styles.

SUBJECT: A request for a Certificate of Appropriateness to remove shakes and paint a
house
FILE: PZ2021-409
STAFF REPORT
Marvin Lindow requests permission to remove shakes from the house located at 2470 Ashley
Avenue. He ensured the profile of the siding will match the existing garage, which is located in
the rear yard and visible from the street right-of-way.
Additionally, Mr. Lindow requests permission to paint the house. If granted, the exterior body
color will be Benjamin Moore Winter Ice, the trim will be Benjamin Moore White Dove and the
front door will be Benjamin Moore Grenada Villa. Please reference the paint swatches located
in your packet.
This home is categorized as a Minimal Traditional style house. A variety of materials such as
stone, brick, wood siding, etc. appear to be used for a Minimal Traditional style home
(McAlester et al., pg. 461). Therefore, the removal of the shakes to be replaced with wood
siding seems appropriate for a home of this era.
Staff recommends approval of this request.
The house is not listed in the SPARE survey.
Exhibits are attached.
