RE: Variance request for 2740 Sarah St., Beaumont, Tx 77704
Board of Adjustments
|arnwriting thi letter in order to apply for a variance for the above -mentioned address. The current lot
was approximately 3828 sqft per the CAD, and since then the property has been replated. The replated
tract is now 2800 sqft. This homeowner has been approved to receive a new home from the GLO with
approximately 1500 sq ft. with attached porch and an ADA approved ramp/lift. For us to build the new
home, m/mare requesting abuild line variance.
The front build line is currently 25' and we would like to request to be a 21'6" front build line.
The rear build line is 25' and we would like to request the build line be moved back 16'. The side build
line is currently 5' aind we would like to request to be a 36" build line.
If we were to be granted this variance, then we would have a greater chance of fitting a new
home onthe lot with the allocated bedrooms the GLO has set forth for this homeowner.
I thank you for your time in advance,
Jennifer Smith
