Mr. Roy Lackey wants to build a 3,600 square foot two-story house adjoining and attached to his mother's one-story house at 190 East Caldwood and Cross Drive. The subdivision is zoned RS and is developed with single family homes. Mr. Lackey's mother lives in the existing residence. Her husband passed away in 1999. Roy Lackey and his wife and children will live in the proposed new attached residence. The property consists of 1.3 acres, being Lots 20 and 21, Block 3, Caldwood Addition. The original house lies across parts of both lots. The lot area requirement for a two-family dwelling has been met. Exhibits are attached. PUBLIC NOTIFICATION Notices mailed to property owners 16 Responses in Favor _. Responses in Opposition LEGAI, DESCRIPTION FOR ORDINANCE PURPOSES Being Lots 20 and 21, Block 3, Caldwood Addition to the City of Beaumont, Jefferson County, Texas, containing 1.3 acres of land, more or less. mm Date: July 11, 2000 To: Planning Commision & City Council From: Roy & Sandra Lackey Family, Clara Lackey Re: Addition to residence at 190 East Caldwood Located on Lots 20 & 21 Block 3 Caldwood Addition 'Beaumont, Texas 77707 I would like to add an additional 3600 sq. ft. to my mother's residence located at the address above. The home title is currently in both my mother's name and mine. The main reason for this addition is so that my family (wife & 3 children) can move to the home where my mother currently resides and where I was raised. My father passed away August 2, 1999, and due to the size of the home and property, I would like to take care of the maintenance and upkeep so my mother won't have to. I believe this addition (approx. $400,000) will be an improvement to the current property and will not diminish the property values in the immediate vicinity, but actually raise them. This property will only be used as a single-family residence for the Lackey family. No portion of this property will ever be used as rental property of any kind. My parents built the home in 1975.1 hope to keep it in the Lackey family for many years to come. One day I hope my children and their families will live here. The addition will be attached to the existing home as shown on the exhibits. There will also be a detached garage located behind the home that will be of the same construction as the main house (stone & stucco). The entrances to the property will not change. The circular front driveway will not be modified in any way. The rear driveway currently in place will be relocated approximately 30' west (along the back property line). Entrance to and exit from the home will not change. The new utilities (electric service, water, sewer, telephone, and cable TV) needed are all easily accessible. After the construction is completed, I will landscape the new addition similar to what is currently around the existing home and pool. The motorhome that now sits outside on the back driveway will be housed in the new, detached garage. The new addition will be a two story residence, similar to many houses within view. The roof of the existing home will tie directly into the roof of the new addition. The roof pitch will match that of the existing home. The entire residence will receive a new colored standing seam metal roof and new vinyl trim on the fascia and eaves. The new front of the add -on will sit roughly the same distance from Cross Street as the existing home sits off East Caldwood (100'). The existing landscaping along the west side of the property will be untouched and will continue to shield the neighbor's home from view. Any additional outdoor lighting will be directed toward the home to highlight the property and provide security.
