TO: Planning Commission and City Council
FROM: Demi Engman, Director of Planning and Community Development
SUBJECT: To consider a request for approval of a Rezoning of a property from RM-H
(Residential Multiple Family— High Density) to LI (Light Industrial) District.
FILE: PZ2025-178
STAFF REPORT
Ray Woodside is requesting approval of a Rezoning from RM-H (Residential Multiple Family—
High Density) District to LI (Light Industrial) District, for the property located at 5775 Erie Street.
The purpose of the Rezoning is to develop a truck parking and storage facility for a Motor
Carrier Company, Ray+ Rayne LLC, currently operating six (6) semi-trucks and trailers.
The property was originally zoned LI when Cardinal Drive was constructed, however in 1999 in
an attempt to sell the property they rezoned the property to RM-H to develop residential
homes. That development has not taken place, and the industrial uses within this area has
continued to expand.
According to the Comprehensive Plan the property is located within a "Light Industrial" area,
and the Rezoning request aligns with the Comprehensive Plan. It should be noted, that a
portion of the property is within the Special Flood Hazard Area, and any construction will need
to be in strict compliance with the City's adopted Flood Damage and Prevention Ordinance.
Planning staff recommends approval of the request.
Exhibits are attached.

Zoning Committee,
We recently entered into a purchase agreement for 5775 Erie St Beaumont, TX
77705. The reason for us purchasing the property was because per JCAD/
Appraisal, it was zoned as L1. We want to establish truck parking for our Motor
Carrier Company, Ray + Rayne LLC, which currently consists of 6 Semi trucks and
Trailers. I recently found out that per the Zoning Commission, the property is
currently zoned as residential. We do know that it was previously zoned as Light
Commercial and majority of the properties surrounding the lot are currently listed
as Light Commercial. We will be enhancing the property by leveling and building a
sturdy foundation for proper truck parking.
We are a small business based locally out of Beaumont, Texas. Our reason for
needing this parking location is because we have been parking at Petro and have
had several instances in which our trucks have been towed/ vandalized. With the
rezoning and being able to park our trucks here, it will provide a safe and secure
area for our trucks.
Attached is a map showing surrounding light industrial areas except for 2
properties directly center showing residential.
I want to thank you in Advance for your time and consideration on allowing this lot
to be rezoned as L1.
