Plan Notes: Case Type:Planning and Zoning Page 2 of 2 Case IF:PZ2022-315 Printed On:3/13/2023 City of Beaumont Planning and Zoning Committee, Like A Fish has been providing swimming lessons to the citizens of Beaumont, Port Arthur Orange and some as far away as Houston since July of 2019. After concluding my classes for that year, I wasn't sure I was going to offer swimming lessons for the summer of 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic. While watching the 10 o'clock news on the night of April 15th, the leading story was a drowning on the City of Beaumont's property known as The Event Center. At that moment, I knew that was my sign from God to go all in on swimming lessons and that's what I have done since then. During this time frame over 500 kids, age ranging from 3-17 and over 150 adults, age ranging from 18-72 have learned to swim properly through my program. The lessons for kids and adults normally start in mid-May when the weather and water is warm enough. The lessons conclude for kids right around the time school starts back but continue for adults until mid-September. Kids lessons are Monday, Tuesday and Thursday between the evening times of 5:30pm to 8:30pm. Adult lessons are conducted on Friday, Saturday and Sundays at various times during the day light hours. Besides myself, there are usually 2 to 3 other staff members with me teaching swimming lessons. It would be a travesty to the citizens of Beaumont if this program was not allowed to continue on an annual basis. Thanks in advance for your consideration in this manner.
