Box 3827 77704 From: Randle Dry 580 Parson Drive Beaurnont, TX 77706 Subject: Request for a Zoning Variance Reference: Permit Request BP2024-3750 'ro Whom it may concern: I am respectfully requesting consideration be given to granting me a variance for an addition I built (Jan 2022) as a rain cover over the entrance of my front or. I purchased the residence in 1973 after ser-ving in the US Army Airborne. It has been my residence since then. I was not aware that a permit would be required for the construction of the 4ftX 15 ft ruin corer. I was made aware of my mistake when I bad my home completely re -roofed in March of 2023, and after the new roof was certified, I was informed by my insurance company that my windstorm insurance, which we have had for many years, was not going to be renewed, because there was no permit for the construction of the rain cover, It was when I applied for a permit that the cover may be too close to my property fine. By my measurements the rain cover support post are between 23 to 24 feet from my property line. According to Beaumont code 25 ft is the allowable distance. Therefore I am asking for a variance of between I or 2 feet (exact distance difficult to measure) into the allowable zone. I'm hoping a variance can be granted because the front door rain cover is needed during bad weather. , Respectfully; Randle Dry Mobile phone (409) 283-0850 OEM*% nowwww"FM=A !" 580 !
