FROM: Chris Boone, Director of Planning and Community Development
SUBJECT: Consider a request to Rezone a property from NC (Neighborhood Commercial)
and RMrH (Residential Multiple -Family Dwelling --- Highest Density) to GC-MD-
2 General Commercial — Multiple -Family Dwelling — 2) and a Specific Use
Permit to allow a mini storage.
FILE: PZ2022-48
STAFF RE, PORT
Concord Mini Storage, L.L.C., would like to rezone the property located at 6030/6040 Concord
Road and is requesting a Specific Use Permit to allow a mini storage at this location. The
property is currently split zoned NC (Neighborhood Commercial) and RM-H (Residential
Multiple -Family Dwelling — Highest Density). The applicant states plans are to build 190 self -
serve personal storage units. The property will be gated with a keypad entry. An office will be
located onsite. The property will be accessible twenty-four (24) hours per day, seven (7) days
per week.
The property is located along Concord Road, a secondary arterial street and just cast of the
Dolen Road intersection, The property to the northwest is zoned GC-MD-2 (General
Commercial — Multiple -Family Dwelling — 2) and properties to the south are also commercial.
Although properties to the north and cast are residential, GC-MD-2 matches the adjacent zoning
and would provide a buffer as any change of use would require a new Specific Use Permit.
For properties that are zoned GC-MD-2 and located adjacent to residential zoned properties, the
side minimum setback requirement is twenty (20) feet and the rear minimum setback
requirement is fifteen (15) feet. The site plan shows buildings along the east property line are
shown fifteen (15) feet from the property line and the building across the rear of the property is
located ten (10) feet from the rear property line.
A landscaped buffer, ten (10) feet wide, with trees, and an eight (g) foot tall wood or masonry
screening fence is required along these same residential boundaries and will be located in the
required setback. The landscaping buffer shown along the east property line meets requirements,
but a buffer with trees will need to be extended across the ream of the property. One class A tree
(large as in an oak) or two (2) Class B trees (small as in a crepe myrtle) must be place every
twenty-five linear feet in this buffer.
Perimeter landscaping is required when parking areas are located adjacent to a street. Where
power lines are present, a row of shrubs is required for the length of the parking area.
Beaumont Fire has expressed some concern regarding access to the rear of the buildings but
would like to review the layout further when construction plans are submitted.
Staff recommends approval of the request with the following conditions;
1. Adjust the location of buildings to meet minimum setback requirements,
2, Install landscaping to meet City Ordinance requirements.
3. Maintain or replace (as needed) the sidewalk along Concord Road.
4. Plans must be in compliance with Beaumont Fire codes.
Please note that final occupancy approval is subject to review and acceptance of submitted plans
and field inspections to verify compliance with applicable codes.

J1 nua A,_� RE: Goncord Mini Storage. LLC'
... . ....... .. . . .. .... ....
. .... ... . ..
Mrs. Engman,
My client Is wishing to change the property zoning for the tracts of land located at 6030 and 6040 Concord
Road from "NC to the recommended "OOMD" or "GGMI92" zone. This property consist of 2.2315 acres.
Adjoining this property Is the Modica Brother's to the Northwest and an empty lot to the Southeast (see
location map).
Mr. Townley Is wanting to construct a Mini storage facility that will encompass approximately 1 LIO
units. These will be self -serve personal storage units (non-combustible storage only). Electronic
gates will be provided with a keypad that allows entry. A small office will be on the property that
will service clients. This office will be open from b:00arn — 5:00 pm Monday thru Friday. Screening
will be added to all sides (privacy fencing and landscaping). The storm water runoff will be handled
through a pipe system that will release into the 60"' pipe under Concord Road, Sidewalks are
existing. -
Thank You,
