Home My WebLink AboutPZ2023-97DATE: April 6iZOZ3 TO: Board of Adjustment FROM: Adina Josey, Senior Planner SUBJECT: To consider a request for a Special Exception to waive off-street parking and loading requirements for acarpentry shop. FILE: PZ2023-97 STAFF REPORT Javier Ra{da has requested aspedo| exception towaive off-street parking requirements for the property at 1009 Orange Avenue. Special exception (c.) allows a waiver to off-street parking when the Board finds the same is unnecessary for the proposed use of the building for which the request applies. Mr. Ralda has submitted a Specific Use Permit application for consideration by the Planning an d, Zoning Commission. The building where hehopes toopen his carpentry shop currently does not have parking that meets City requirements, According tothe Zoning Ordinance, the G`OOO sq. ft. shop would require 6parking spaces. Parking for the structure has historically been on the Cfh/sr|ght-of-vvay,and backs out onto the street pavement. The property includes a vacant lot behind the building, but paving would be required for an approach and ADA compliant parking if off-street parking to meet the Zoning Ordinance is required. Mr. Ralda states this would cause him hardship. Exhibits are attached. PUBLIC NOTIFICATION Notices mailed to property owners 23 Responses in FavorResponses in Opposition.

Case Type: Planning and Zoning Page 2 of 2 Case 4- PZ2023-97 Printed On: 3/1412023 PERSONAL AFFIDAVIT 1, Javier Adalberto Ralda Reyes, USA citizen as member and representative Of My company Carpenwood LLC, declare before a Texas Notary Public, the reasons for which I request that we be exempted from the requirement to build a new parking lot in the 1009 Orange Street in Beaumont Texas. 1. The debt of Carpenwood LLC for the acquisition of the building amounts to $'I 'i ,boo (One hundred thirty-one thousand two hundred dollars without cents) of which $82,600 is still due to the previous owner and $48,600 is due to personal lines of credit, obtained from banks as personal loans. This seriously compromises our financial capacity, because the quotes we obtained for the construction of the new parking lot exceed $10,000 dollars. In addition, our investment in tools and equipment exceeds $20 thousand dollars. 2. Recently, we paid the outstanding property tax debt from the previous owner at the City of Beaumont Tax Collector Off ice, for a value of $5200 (five thousand two hundred dollars)- 3. The current parking lot is enough for the carpentry, because Carpenwood LLB is a workshop that does not have a showroorn, therefore it does not receive visits from clients or suppliers. Therefore, the current parking lot is and will be exclusive for workers. 4. The workshop is located on Orange Street in Beaumont Texas, which is a street with very little traffic, very similar to the dead end streets. If you need more detail about our current situation, feel free to contact me at Javier@carenrood.corn where I can gladly offer more details about it. I appreciate your time and consideration, since we only intend to operate in order, as soon as possible, respecting the provisions of the,,dk1jv of Beaumont. j a V i e-r-A o Ralda Reyes Attu nt NOTARY ACKNOWLEDGMENT STATE OF TEXAS X COUNTY OF JEFFERSON X On this date., before me, the undersigned Notary Public personally appeared Javier Adalberto RaIda Reyes and provided satisfactory evidence of identification through Texas Driver License to be the person whose name is signed on the preceding document, and swore under the penalty of pedury that the foregoing statements are true.
