lot 112 of Calder terrace addition
The proposed extension is following existing architecture of existing
garage.. 1 story structure
no windows facing neighbors house .... rear yard will still be able to be
maintained
literal enforcement of ordinance will not benefit neighbors in any way
but will affect the total use and enjoyment of our property
yes because by allowing variance it will allow us to store items in
enclosed structure that would otherwise be outside such as vehicles,
boats and lawn equipment which would be a nuisance for neighbors

Re: Request foi- Varj a ance at 229 W. Circuit Di-., Beauniont, TX 77706
To whom it may concern-.
The purpose of this letter is to address Beaumont Code Enforcenlent's request that we provide a
detailed explaiiation for our variance application, which will be submitted through Sam
Bevilacqua.
My wife, Holly, and I recently acquired the home located at 229 W. Circuit Dr. The 11ollse is
great but lacks a garage area. It does have a carport which is attached to a 10-foot deep storage
building. Unfortunately, the storage building is not large enough to fit our boat, and parking
space is limited. We are requesting the variat ice to build out the 10-foot storage building into a
28 to 30 foot deep garage that would provide room to store our boat and additional needed
storage space for lawn equipment, etc.
Per Mr. Bevilacqua, the issue is that the existing structure is close enough to the property line
that it would require a variance to be constructed today. There is sufficient space in our back
yard to extend the existingsh-ucture without getting too close to the back fence, and building the
extension will not make the existing structure any closer to our neighbor's house than it already
is. Of course, we would ask Mr. Bevilacqua to build the extension to match the existing
structure and not have it go any higher. We think that building the extension will not only
provide us with the storage space we need but also make it easier for us to park our vehicles in
the limited space the home provides (i.e. not have to park in the street).
Further, without the variance, backing the boat in the garage will be very difficult, if not
impossible, if the space does not go straight back for full use of the structure.
Sincerely,
Blake Hamm
