TO: Planning Commission and City Council
FROM: Stephen C. Richardson, Planning Manager
SUBJECT: Request for a zone change from NC (Neighborhood Commercial) and RS
(Residential Single Family Dwelling) to GC -MD (General Commercial -Multiple
Family Dwelling) District for a 1.055 acre tract located at 6050 Concord Road.
FILE: 1531-Z
The Planning Manager recommends approval of the zone change to GC -MD. This property
lies within the Regional Center of the Eastex Freeway, Concord Road and Dowlen Road.
J. C. Modica wishes to build an 8,500 square foot retail tire store for Modica Brothers at
6050 Concord Road. The present NC zoning on the tract restricts structures to a maximum
of 4,000 square feet. A very small pail of this tract is zoned RS along the northeast property
line.
He feels that with the population growth and commercial expansion in north and west
Beaumont, and with the future widening of Concord Road in mind in this "Regional Center"
(Comprehensive Plan), that now is a good time for Modica Brothers to expand to serve
customers in this part of Beaumont.
Property next door to the southeast was rezoned to NC in 1995 for a vocational training
school for plant safety personnel. There is also an engraving company on the school
property. A one acre tract to the northeast on Concord at Garner was rezoned to NC in 1998
for a crafts and antiques store.
Exhibits are attached.
