Good
afternoon,
ladies
and
gentlemen,
and
welcome
to
the
planning
and
zoning
commission
meeting
of
march
15
2021,
my
name
is
cena
neja,
the
chair
of
the
committee
and,
along
with
my
colleagues,
the
commissioners
I'll
welcome
you.
Please
make
sure
you
silence
your
cell
phone
and
we
get
started
with
the
roll
call.
Please.
F
B
C
G
Smiling
wildly
widely
good
afternoon
all
right.
The
first
item
on
the
regular
meeting
is
file
pz202116,
and
it's
to
consider
a
request
for
preliminary
plaid
approval
of
high
point
subdivision
face
to
beaumont
jefferson,
county
texas,
daniel
dotson
pe
of
fits
and
shipment
incorporated
has
requested
this
preliminary
plaid
approval
of
highland
subdivision
phase
2..
G
G
G
I
should
point
out
that
waivers
for
the
number
of
lots
on
a
single
access
for
the
length
of
cul-de-sac
were
not
discussed
back
when
the
preliminary
plan
was
first
approved.
However,
the
subdivision
ordinance
does
state
that
a
single
outlet
residential
streets
shall
serve
no
more
than
32
dwelling
units.
G
Mr
dotson
would
like
to
request
a
waiver
to
allow
65
lots
on
a
single
outlet
residential
street,
so
combining
phase
one
existing
as
as
in
in
addition
to
this
phase,
would
be
more
than
the
32
maximum,
so
they
are
requesting
a
waiver
of
that
provision
and,
in
addition,
a
waiver
is
also
being
requested
for
the
length
of
the
cul-de-sac.
The
ordinance
states
that
a
cul-de-sac
shall
not
be
greater
than
800
feet
long,
and
this
proposed
extension
of
the
street
would
result
in
a
1900
foot
long
cul-de-sac.
G
G
Having
said
that,
it's
not
uncommon
for
us
to
grant
waivers
and
recommend
waivers,
because
at
the
end
of
the
day,
the
regulations
the
regulations
tend
to
be-
I
don't
want
to
say
dated,
but
they
tend
to
not
reflect
a
more
typical,
modern
subdivision
with
curvilinear
streets,
as
opposed
to
say
a
grid
pattern.
So
again,
it's
not
it's
not
uncommon
for
us
to
recommend
the
waiver
and
the
waiver
to
be
granted.
C
I'm
having
a
hard
time
with
that,
because
if,
if
the
regulation
is
outdated,
we
need
to
go
ahead
and
fix
it,
there's
no
reason
for
us
to
sit
around
and
keep
giving
people
waivers
if
we
think
the
regulations
outdated,
so
they
they
limited
the
cul-de-sac
from
800
to
1900.
That's
quite
a
bit
of
different:
it's
not
50
feet,
40
feet
20
feet,
and
the
number
of
lots
is
quite
a
bit
different.
So.
C
G
I
think
it
probably
would
be
good
for
us
to
look
at
some
language
to
that
effect,
where,
if
there
were
some
constraints
geographically
or
again,
if
there's
an
existing
development
pattern,
where
trying
to
lay
out
a
gridded
layout,
you
know
just
doesn't
make
sense.
I
think,
be
a
good
idea,
maybe
to
have
some
language
in
there
to
still
encourage
that
pattern,
but
allow
you
know
allow
for
the
waiver,
under
maybe
certain
criteria.
H
E
G
This
one
again
this
one
when
it
came
back
in
2006,
I
think
they
just
didn't
pick
up
on
the
fact
that
a
waiver
would
be
required,
and
so
the
waiver
was
not
asked
for
and
it
was
not
granted.
The
the
plot
was
simply
approved
without
the
waiver.
So
now
that
we've
recognized
the
fact
that
you
know
there
really
should
have
been
either
it
should
have
been
drawn
differently
or
there
should
have
been
a
way
for
granted.
Since
we
picked
up
on
that,
we're
now
asking
to
they're
encouraging
the
waiver.
I
E
G
You
know,
I
will
just
say
that
you
know
for
them
to
get
around
the
waiver
or
not
have
to
even
ask
for
the
waiver
again
they
would.
They
would
have
to
you
know
just
looking
at
what
they've
got
proposed.
You
know
stubbed
out
towards
the
I
guess
would
be
towards
the
east,
but
that's
property,
that
they
don't
own.
C
C
Would
you
state
your
name
and
address
for
the
record
and
give
us
any
additional
information
you
might
have.
K
Daniel
dotson,
with
fitz
and
shipman
1405
cornerstone
court,
beaumont,
texas,
and
I
think
it
was
explained
very
good.
Any
other
additional
questions
be
more
than
happy
to
answer
we're
basically
just
moving
forward
with
the
same
plot
that
was
approved
in
2004,
just
updated
it
and
sent
it
back
in
for
approval.
K
Yes,
sir
yeah,
the
it's
a
long,
slender
piece
of
property
and
it's
surrounded
by
dd6
ditch.
So
there
is
no
access
point
there
around
the
side.
The
property
adjacent
to
the
east
is
not
the
property
owner's,
different
property
owner
and
the
street
is
a
private
subdivision
as
well.
It's
a
gated
community.
So
it's
a
private
street
for
the
development.
C
Thank
you,
mr
dodson.
Sarah,
thank
you.
Okay,
we've
heard
from
the
staff
and
also
the
applicant,
and
I
would
entertain
the
motion.
C
We
have
a
motion
and
the
second
all
in
favor
raise
your
hand
with
eye
and
now
vote
against
it.
Thank
you,
the
eyes
have
it.
Thank
you
very
much.
Let's
go
to
next
one
and
mr
boone
I'd
like
for
you
to
maybe
have
a
workshop
of
some
sort.
Let's
go
ahead
and
review
this.
If
these
ordinances
are
not
updated,
we
need
to
go
ahead
and
take
care
of
those.
G
All
lots
will
have
frontage
on
the
proposed
hercules
drive,
which
has
a
60
foot
right
away
and
a
28
foot
wide
paved
curb
and
gutter
street
water
will
be
provided
by
meeker
water
supply
corporation
and
sewer
will
be
individual
septic
systems,
and
let
me
show
you
the
in
front
of
you
is
the
plat
showing
the
proposed
subdivision.
G
A
My
name
is
don
king
with
fits
and
shipment
engineers
at
a
14-5
1405
cornerstone
court
in
beaumont
and
basically
yes,
this
is
another
development
from
doge
diamond
d
ranch.
A
It's
a
continuation
sort
of
of
the
pattern
that
we've
been
doing
out
there
with
some
cul-de-sac
streets
and
curb
and
gutter,
and
so
this
is
a
this
is,
like
I
say,
just
the
next
phase:
progressing
down
the
roadway.
So
with
that,
I
guess
I'll
just
open
up.
If
there's
any
questions
or
comments.
A
The
the
cul-de-sac
lots
are
a
little
bit
larger
but
they're
all.
I
believe
I
can't
read
how
big
they
are,
but
they.
A
Lot
pretty
pretty
solid,
we
we
consider
it
kind
of
a
rural
ranch
type
subdivision,
something
like.
A
C
A
Right,
yes,
the
aerobic
systems,
some
of
them
use
spray,
and
then
some
of
them
do
drip
irrigation.
It's
kind
of
up
to
the
homeowners
and
those
all
have
to
be
approved
by
the
jefferson
county
environmental
department,
because
this
is
out
in
the
county.
A
Oh
yes,
yes,
okay
over
there.
Yes,
those
are
prior
phases
that
was
diamond
d
phase
three
b
and
those
are
already
plotted
or
platted.
A
C
B
B
We
approve
file
pz
2021-46.
C
G
I
L
C
Good
afternoon,
thank
you,
mr
phil
shop,
mr
boone.
G
G
10
parking
spaces
will
be
utilized
for
the
equipment,
storage
and
display,
leaving
more
than
adequate
parking
for
the
existing
business.
We'll
go
ahead
and
show
you
this
is
the
outlined
in
red
is
the
existing
location.
Many
of
us
are
familiar
with
the
home
depot
there
on
east
texas.
G
This
is
the
proposed
site
plan.
Again,
you
can
see
more
than
adequate
parking
in
the
front,
and
this
is
where
the
rental
will
be.
This
is
a
view
of
the
subject:
property
also
the
subject
property
and
again.
This
is
the
side
where
the
rental
area
will
be
due
to
the
east,
the
view
to
the
southeast,
the
south.
G
G
C
H
G
H
G
C
Okay,
the
fence
is
currently
there
next
to
the
next
property.
C
I
G
G
C
J
Sir
go
ahead:
where
is
this
equipment
going
to
be
cleaned
and
how
is
it
going
to
be
cleaned.
J
C
That
is
a
good
concern.
Maybe
we
ought
to
have
that
as
one
of
the
conditions.
I
C
B
I
C
G
Okay,
the
next
item
on
the
joint
agenda
is
a
request
for
amendments
to
the
zoning
ordinance
concerning
signage,
specifically
sections
28.01.004.
G
As
a
result
of
the
court
cases
such
as
reid
versus
town
of
gilbert,
as
well
as
arizona
and
reagan,
national
advertising
versus
the
city
of
austin,
which
was
resolved,
I
believe
last
fall.
Most
city
sign
ordinances
throughout
the
country
as
well
as
many
state
statutes
regulating
signs
are
now
subject
to
challenges
of
being
unconstitutional.
G
G
The
courts
have
essentially
said
that
if
a
city
or
state
has
to
read
a
sign
to
enforce
their
ordinance,
it
may
be
unconstitutional
the
issue
for
beaumont
and
most
city
sign
ordinances.
Is
that
being
able
to
read
a
sign
is
critical
to
the
enforcement
in
an
attempt
to
comply
with
these
decisions.
We
are
making
recommendations
to
the
following
sections
that
have
been
listed.
G
G
So,
in
essence,
what
we've
done
is
we've
gone
through
our
sign
regulation
and
removed
any
reference
to
content.
So
if
you,
if
you've
ever
looked
at
the
sign
regulations,
it
often
refers
to
content,
so
there
may
be
exemptions
for
for
sale
signs.
There
may
be
exemptions
for
campaign
signs.
There
may
be
exemptions
for
real
estate
signs
and
that's
typical
of
most
cities.
The
problem
is,
with
these
court
cases
now
you've
got
to
read
it
to
enforce
it.
G
So
again,
the
scheme
we've
come
up
with
our
intent
is
to
try
and
retain
as
much
as
possible
all
of
the
regulations
and
schemes
that
we
have
on
on
the
books.
You
know
we
have
you'll
see
in
the
sections.
We
have
our
basic
sign
ordinance,
which
is
citywide,
and
then
we
have.
We
have
a
section
for
the
historic
district
which
has
special
conditions.
G
You'll
notice,
in
the
first
couple
pages,
we've
amended
definition
to
an
advertising
sign
versus
an
owner
identification
sign
again.
An
advertising
sign
traditionally
is
a
billboard
problem.
Typically,
is
you've
got
to
read
it
to
know
it's
a
billboard.
So
what
we've
done
here
is
we've
copied
the
exact
definition
that
the
state
uses
in
their
scheme
for
advertising
signs
and
billboards
and
then,
as
you
look
through
most
of
the
other
amendments
are
again
related
to
content.
G
And
what
this
section
is,
because
I
know
y'all
don't
have
the
full
zoning
ordinance
in
front
of
you,
which
contains
the
sign
ordinance.
What
this
section
is.
This
is
the
listing
of
exemptions
in
the
basic
underlying
sign,
ordinance
and
so
you'll
see
there
under
one
on
under
the
exemptions,
subsection
e
you'll
see
one
changing
of
permitted
sign,
phase
copy
again
we're
taking
copy
out
and
replacing
that
with
sign
face.
G
G
You
want
to
have
obviously
a
house
number
building
number
right
under
the
prior
ordinance.
It
says
house
number
the
problem
with
the
supreme
court
decision
is,
I
can't
distinguish
between
a
house
number
or
anything
else,
and
so
we've
struck
that.
So,
if
you
go
down
the
list,
we've
also
struck
real
estate
signs,
because
how
do
we
distinguish
between
a
real
estate
sign
and
any
other
kind
of
sign
without
being
able
to
read
it?
G
What
is
loud
and
is
exempt
under
all
sign
ordinance
sections
would
be
one
sign
affixed
to
a
structure
less
than
four
square
feet
in
area,
so
that
would
be
essentially
that's
for
a
house
number.
Okay
in
other
parts
of
the
city
ordinance
it
it
talks
about.
You
need
to
have
a
house
number
like
the
fire
code
says
you
need
to
have
a
house
number.
G
G
Under
this
ordinance,
I
can't
insist
that
it's
a
house
number
under
another
ordinance
like
we
can
insist
that
you
have
a
house
number,
but
under
the
sign
ordinance,
I
can't
insist
that
that's
a
house
number,
so
it
could
say
anything
you
want
it
to
say
it
could
say,
save
the
whales,
for
example,
it
could
be
an
american
flag.
It
could
be
a
number
okay,
because
I
cannot
read
it
to
enforce
it.
G
G
So
what
I'm
doing
is
we?
What
we're
doing
or
proposing
to
do
is
allow
two
flags
now
anything
we
discuss
in
here.
Council
commission
can
recommend
and
enact
three
flags,
four
flags,
one
flag,
no
flags,
but
what
the
scheme
we
came
up
with
was
to
attempt
to
look
at
a
typical
house
or
a
typical
business
and
decide.
You
know,
what's
a
reasonable
number.
C
G
G
Now
it
could
be
an
american
flag
and
a
texas
flag,
or
it
could
be
two
signs
that
say,
save
the
whales,
but
that's
up
to
the
homeowner
or
the
property
owner.
Okay,
because
I
cannot
have
an
exemption
in
here
that
says:
we're
not
going
to
regulate
american
flags,
because
for
me
to
do
that,
I'd
have
to
read
it.
Look
at
it
to
interpret
that
moving
on
to
flags
and
commercial
areas,.
G
G
So,
under
this
scheme
we
would
allow
an
additional
free,
standings
temporary
sign.
So
if
you
see
the
little
example
here,
you're
allowed
one
free
standing
sign.
So
if
you
wanna
and
the
example
is,
we
call
them
bandit
signs.
But
you
know
the
typical
real
estate
signs
or
campaign
sides,
those
sides
we
would
allow
homes
and
residential
to
have
one
temporary
sign,
not
greater
than
eight
square
feet
in
area
not
more
than
six
feet
in
height
okay.
G
And
again
these
numbers
are
subject
to
change
recommended
by
the
planning.
Commission.
Ultimate
decision
to
city
council
so
you're
allowed
one,
which
is
up
next
to
the
house.
Now
we
get
back
to
campaign
season.
If
you
look
here
that
the
language
we
have
is
during
campaign
season,
okay
you're
allowed
an
additional
sign
again.
We
cannot
look
at
it
and
determine
whether
or
not
it's
a
campaign
sign.
All
we
can
do
is
say
you
can
have
an
additional
sign
during
campaign
season.
G
Okay,
now
we
can
restrict
the
size
and
the
height
and
we
can
say
for
a
period
of
not
more
than
60
days,
prior
and
10
days
after
an
election
involving
candidates
or
measure
for
a
federal
state
or
local
election.
That
involves
a
measure
on
the
ballot
of
an
election
within
the
area.
The
content
of
the
sign
shall
not
be
regulated
so
again,
everybody's
entitled
to
one
freestanding
sign
during
election
season,
you're
entitled
to
another
sign
again,
we
you
can
say
whatever
you
want.
You
want
it
to
say,
but
you're
allowed
an
additional
sign.
G
The
idea
is
to
be
able
to
allow
additional
signs
per
campaign,
but
not
have
to
regulate
it
in
terms
of
content.
Now,
if
you
look
at
the
next
paragraph
b,
let's
see
so
this
is
in
commercial
district.
Here's
the
commercial
district
same
thing,
but
you're
allowed.
G
Lots
with
street
frontage
in
excess
of
300
feet
shall
be
permitted,
an
additional
sign
for
each
additional
300
feet,
frontage
for
a
period
of
60
days
prior
and
10
days
after
an
election
involving
candidates
are
measured
for
a
federal
state,
local
election.
That
involves
a
measure
on
the
ballot
of
an
election
within
the
area.
G
Again,
the
content
of
the
sign
shall
not
be
regulated,
so
the
idea
is
commercial
properties
with
more
area.
More
street
frontage
would
be
allowed
an
additional
sign
and
then
the
section
c
is
additional
signs.
Election
signs
are
polling
places.
So
again
we
have
polling
places
that,
as
you
know,
as
you
get
close
to
campaign
sign
campaign
season,
there
are
kind
of
signs
all
over
the
place.
So
there's
multiple,
multiple
signs.
So,
instead
of
us
going
out
there
and
eliminating
that
we
have
a
section
there,
which
basically
says
there
shall
be
no
limit.
G
So
again
can't
control
the
content.
But
if
your
house
or
your
building
is
or
your
property
is
for
sale
or
for
lease,
you
get
additional
sign.
You
can't
control
the
content
under
properties
under
construction,
section
10
properties
that
are
actively
under
construction
and
for
30
days
after
the
issuance
of
the
certificate
of
occupancy
are
permitted
one
additional
temporary
sign,
not
more
than
40
square
feet
in
area.
G
So
again
a
building's
built
that
says
this
was
con
constructed
by
so
and
so
company.
You
get
an
additional
sign
again
can't
control
the
content,
but
you
get
an
additional
sign
and
then
last
number
11
garage
sales.
If
you're
having
a
garage,
sale,
you're
allowed
a
garage
sale,
sign
six
square
feet
in
area
not
located
within
the
right
of
way
permissible
for
10
consecutive
days
in
a
calendar
calendar
year
prior
to
the
garage
sale
and
again
that
language
was
taken
from
the
prior
ordinance.
G
G
G
G
So
again,
while
we
can't
regulate
content,
we
can
regulate
location
number
size
height.
So
yes,
if,
if
if
a
sign
is
put
out,
that's
too
big,
then
you
could
be
subject
to
penalty
now,
of
course,
usually
what
we
do
is
we
send
them?
Well,
we
send
a
warning
letter
and
usually
gets.
It
gets
moved
but
yeah
technically.
If,
if
it
doesn't
get
moved,
you
could
file
you
could
we
could
file
a
municipal
court
to
make
them
move
it.
C
L
C
G
Yeah,
as
I
stated
at
the
beginning,
the
council
can
change
all
these
numbers.
If
you
say
you
know,
two
flags
is
not
enough.
You
want
four
or
five
or
six.
The
council
can
do
that.
This
is
just
what
this
scheme
is
about
is
looking
around
different
neighborhoods
in
the
city
as
to
what's
out
there
in
a
typical
house
I
mean
yes,
we've
all
seen
houses
out
there
with
20
flags
there's
one
right.
I
saw
it
yesterday
on
11th
street
by
the
duck
pond.
There's
a
guy
he's
got
20
flags
out
there.
I
G
I
G
An
american
flag,
they
might
have
a
texas
flag,
they
have
a
house
number
and
on
occasion
they
might
have
a
garage
sale.
They
might
have
a
campaign
sign,
they
might
have
a
construction
sign
garage
sale,
but
with
us
the
city
not
being
able
to
regulate
what
they
say
or
what
they
look
like.
Our
hands
are
tied.
G
C
C
G
Yeah
this,
this
ordinance
is
full
of
telling
people
what
to
do
with
signs
on
the
property.
This
is
an
effort
to
maintain
as
much
of
that,
because
again,
there's
been
a
lot
of
work
over
the
decades
of
what's
in
this
ordinance.
So
this
is
an
attempt
to
maintain
the
schemes
that
the
city's
enacted
over
decades
while
having
to
adhere
to,
admittedly
a
very
odd
scheme,
and
in
fact
our
city
attorney,
can
tell
you
even
the
supreme
court
themselves
struggled
with
the
decision.
I
mean
they
came
out
with
descending
opinions
and.
H
G
Yeah,
the
short
answer
is
not
very
often
we
get
we'll
get
a
call
when
somebody
puts
in
they're,
typically
political,
but
they'll
put
in
big
big
signs
in
their
front
yard.
I
know
there's
there's
been
on
one
on
folsom
as
you
get
close
to
dallin
right
there
at
the
curve
and
from
time
to
time,
not
very
often
to
answer
your
question
not
very
often,
but
from
time
to
time
we
get
an
inquiry
about.
You
know:
hey.
This
single
family
house
has
put
out
this
big
sign
that
says
a
b
or
c.
G
Again,
you
could,
if
you
say
we
want
to
exempt
all
flags,
we
can
do
that.
In
other
words,
if
you
want
four
flags
or
five
flags,
whatever
the
council
can
do
that
and
the
council
can,
you
know,
eliminate
all
these
requirements.
The
purpose
from
this
is.
F
Chris,
yes,
thank
you
for
your
work.
I
see
it
as
a
a
template
or
a
model
or
a
reg,
a
standard
that
needs
to
be
set
by
the
city.
F
Anything
outside
the
boundaries
of
that
is
negotiable
and
the
city
has
the
last
say
so
about
it,
but
I
agree
with
anyone.
That's
in
agreement
with
the
fact
that
we
as
a
city
need
to
have
a
template,
a
standard
or
model
to
follow
and
anything
outside
of
those
boundaries
is
negotiable
and
the
final
say
should
be
the
city
council
am
I
am
I
not
hearing
you
say.
C
C
B
B
G
F
G
It
is
a
lot
if
you
look
at
this
ordinance,
there's
a
large
portion
of
this
ordinance
that
is
signed,
sign
related,
and
so
it
is
a
lot
and
we
are
presenting
it
out
there
because
you
know
the
ordinance
is
subject
to
challenge
we're
not
looking
at
any
challenges
right
now,
but
it
is
subject
to
challenge,
and
so
it
doesn't
have
to
be
done.
You
know
immediately,
you
know
it
could
even
be
if
the
commission
wants
to
appoint
a
subcommittee.
If
it's,
if
it's
that
detailed,
you
know
the
commission
has
the
ability
to
do
that,
but.
G
B
C
It
is
okay,
mr
guess,
you
raised
your
hand
and
then
you
well.
I
have
a.
N
But
that
is
still
state
law
that
hasn't
been
challenged,
so
that
has
not
been
really
unconstitutional.
Why
do
I
say
that
I
say
that
to
say
this
under
section
259.003,
it
says
a
municipality
may
not
regulate
a
sign
that
contains
primarily
a
political
message
that
is
located
on
private,
real
property.
With
the
consensus.
N
N
So
with
that
being
the
law
in
the
state
of
texas,
saying
that
a
municipality
cannot
regulate
the
political
side
by
putting
time
periods
on
it
60
days
before
election
90
days
before
election,
you
can
have
to
look
to
sign
up
all
year
round.
So
I
understand
the
purpose
of
this
ordinance
is
to
try
to
comply
with
greed
versus
gilbert,
it's
probably
to
get
away
from
content
based
determination,
but
you
open
up.
C
I'm
not
sure
if
the
next
meeting
would
will
solve
that.
We
need
a
little
bit
more
education
in
in.
Why
we're
doing
this
and
how?
What
I'm
worried
about
about
is
the
real
estate
people,
the
moms
that
want
to
have
their
cheerleading
team
on
the
front
you're
going
to
have
a
whole
bunch
of
pissed
off
people.
C
G
H
C
G
C
Yeah
yeah
and
and
get
some
legal
advice
from
the
city
attorney
and
continue
on
now,
but
I
I
think
this
would
affect
a
lot
of
people,
maybe
unintentionally
so.
O
Please
not
everyone,
especially
within
the
community,
is
going
to
be
an
agreement
with
having
their
neighborhood
bombarded
with
lots
of
signage
throughout
the
year
which
it
defeats
the
whole
idea
of
beautification
of
our
city.
I
mean
you
know,
so
I'm
just
trying
to
hear
it
from
a
different
viewpoint
and
understand
about
constitutional
rights
and
so
forth.
But
there
has
been
concern
that
I've
heard
from
neighbors
and
so
forth
that,
especially
when
you
live
in
a
community
where
part
of
it
is
still
undeveloped
and
you
have
just
loads
and
loads
of
signs
filling
up
the
community.
O
I
O
O
Another
opinion
to
why
it
is
important
to
have
or
to
go
back
and
look
at
some
of
the
regulations
and
language.
If
you
can't
control
the
content.
You
have
to
understand,
too,
that
you
can
have
a
sign,
go
up
right
next
door
to
you
with
something
you
would
see
offensive,
but
since
you're
not
allowed
to
control
the
content,
but
just
the
quantity
and
the
size.
H
C
C
Mr
boone
and
again
like
I
said,
my
house
sits
150
feet
from
from
the
street
and
if
I
have
to
move
my
house
number
to
the
front
door,
nobody
would
find
my
house.
But
anyway
I
guess
I
entertain
a
motion.
B
C
H
C
H
C
We
have
a
motion
to
postpone
this
until
further
training
or
clarification
by
the
the
head
of
the
planning
commission
and
mr
boone
and
the
city
attorney,
and
up
on
that
time,
we'll
bring
this
back
to
the
commission
and
we
have
a
second
you.
C
I
G
G
G
G
G
G
C
H
G
C
H
G
Let
me
real
quick.
Let
me
finish
this.
G
Residential
requires
screening
by
the
ordinance.
There
is
an
existing
chain
link
fence
along
most
of
this
boundary.
However,
the
zoning
ordinance
would
require
an
eight
foot,
wood
or
masonry
fence
along
the
property
line.
The
alleyway
across
the
middle
of
the
property
is,
as
mentioned,
is
still
open,
and
there
should
be
no
further
encroachment
on
this
alley
in
terms
of
a
structure
unless
it's
abandoned
sometime
in
the
future.
G
Just
so
you
know
we
did
send
out
26
property
owner
notifications.
We
received
one
in
favor
from
a
mr
hassan
of
4150
crow
road.
I
believe
that's
the
property
or
the
property
question
is
across
the
street,
but
he's
just
in
favor
of
the
application,
and
we
did
receive
one
call
in
opposition
from
across
the
street,
and
we
received
one
in
a
letter
of
opposition
from
lydia
williams.
G
I
have
reviewed
the
proposed
project
and
I
totally
disagree
with
the
building
of
a
crematorium
near
residential
area
where
children
and
older
adults
live
the
united
states
environmental
protection
agency
states
that
toxins
are
released
into
the
environment
through
the
cremation
of
bodies
as
epa
study
in
2011,
the
most
dangerous
of
these
toxins
being
mercury,
even
very
small
amounts
of
mercury
can
be
dangerous.
Children
and
older
adults
with
multiple
diagnoses
are
susceptible
to
the
dangers
of
having
a
crematorium
near
our
residential
neighborhood.
G
Who
would
want
a
crematorium
next
to
their
home
or
neighborhood?
Remember
there
will
be
assist,
there
will
be
a
systematic
burning
of
human
remains
day
in
and
day
out
for
decades
to
come.
Additionally,
the
president
presence
of
crematorium
near
our
houses
could
have
some
financial
impact
city.
Tax
revenues
could
be
decreased
as
the
property
values
of
homes
near
the
crematorium
will
go
down.
G
Schools
may
also
see
increase
in
the
need
for
special
education
due
to
the
rise
of
learning
disabilities
and
autism
among
children
who
live
near
the
crematorium
because
of
the
various
health
and
financial
concerns
associated
with
the
building
of
crematorium
near
my
home
and
neighborhood.
I
ask
for
your
reconsideration,
so
that
was
in
opposition,
of
course,
based
on
the
application.
G
G
There
was
an
epa
study
done
back
in
2011..
I
can
only
speak
to
the
to
the
extent
that
I
that
I
read
it
or
a
summary
of
it
and
that
they
currently
don't
specifically
regulate
crematoriums.
G
There
was
some
exhaust
of
heavy
metals,
but
not
enough
to
warrant
regulation
or
testing,
and
I
will
say
in
in
in
comparing
what
other
cities
and
states
do
regarding
crematory
crematories,
that
states
we
found
connecticut
and
california
and
florida
and
georgia
regulate
the
location
of
crematory.
G
But
based
on
that,
we
are
recommending
approval
subject
to
the
following
conditions:
number
one
install
an
eight
foot,
wood
and
or
masonry
fence
along
the
east
property
line.
A
gate
should
be
installed
at
the
alley
for
any
future
access
number
two,
no
new
encroachment
on
the
alleyway
unless
an
abandonment
has
been
granted
and
then
finally,
number.
Three
construction
plans
must
meet
all
requirements
by
water
utilities
for
water
and
sanitary
sewer
improvements,
including
any
requirements
of
the
city's
backflow,
pre-treatment
and
or
fog
program,
and
with
that
are
there
any
questions
of
staff.
C
G
M
M
Proctor,
yes,
sir,
just
to
answer
a
few
questions
that
you
had
that
you
would
ask
mr
boone
thank.
H
M
Mr
boone,
I
think
you've
done
a
wonderful
job
as
far
as
the
presentation
as
far
as
what
state
regulations
require
as
far
as
funeral
homes,
as
he
stated,
does,
and
when
you
look
at
it,
it
has
to
have
been
attached
to
a
funeral
home
in
a
sense,
but
in
a
sense
with
state
board
and
I've
already
kind
of
researched.
This
you
have
to
have
a
most
of
your
crematoriums
funeral
homes,
have
an
embalming
service.
M
That's
going
to
be
provided
in
this
building
when
the
water,
all
of
the
water
treatment
things
and
all
of
those
things
are
put
in
the
system
is
put
in
at
that
point
as
well,
is
we're
attached
to
that
with
the
state
board
is
there's
going
to
be
we
don't
we
centralize
and
bond
for
all
of
our
locations,
so
all
of
our
all
of
our
environment
is
done
in
our
beaumont
location.
So
in
this
facility,
as
well,
will
be
an
embalming
station
in
there.
So
that's
where
it's
going
to
come
in
and
meet
the
codes.
M
M
With
the
emissions,
all
of
those
things
are
done,
and
we've
done
the
the
service
that
we're
going
to
use
is
u.s
cremations,
they're
out
of
florida.
It's
where
the
company
that
builds
the
crematorium
island.
All
of
those
things
are
the
emissions,
and
all
of
that
is
regulated
through
that.
It's,
like
all
the
other
crematories.
There
are
no
emissions
concerns.
You
know
that
they
have,
of
course,
when
the
crematoriums
are
burning
most
time.
M
You
don't
even
know
that
they're
burning,
you
know
you,
don't
you
don't
even
know
because
of
the
filtration
system
and
the
filtration
that
it
has
that's
with
the
crematory.
It
tries
to
basically
filter
everything
before
it
comes
out
of
the
stack,
so
those
are
just
some
things
that
have
been
explained
to
us
in
doing
our
research
and
then
going
to
the
persons
that's
going
to
be
installing
all
the
equipment
as
far
as
how
they
run.
M
We
have
been
to
some
other
crematoriums
and
just
seen
how
they
run
and
how
the
things
are,
and
it's
just
not
been
a
big
concern
for
those
persons.
That's
been
there
because
they
are
some
of
your
crematories.
When
you
get
into
the
city
in
like
houston's
and
some
of
your
bigger
areas,
they
are
in
some
of
the
older
areas.
You
know
where
they're
putting
in
crematoriums
and
things
like
that
that
are
in
close
to
residential
areas,
and
things
like
that.
M
M
In
all
the
things
with
our
neighbors,
I
think
it
would
be
safe.
I
think
we'd
be
safe
for
the
community
as
far
as
raising
the
taxes
and
those
things
like
that,
I
would
say
that's
something
that
we
in
our
sense
when
we
we
looked
at
this
property
in
in
doing
that,
I
don't,
I
think
it's
going
to
better
the
value
of
the
property.
It's
just
a
building.
That's
sitting
there.
You
know
when
williams
installation
moved
out
the
building
the
building
said
dormant
for
some
time.
M
So
it's
just
something
for
us
to
better
the
community,
try
to
build
in
the
community
and
bring
things
because
we're
gonna
we're
gonna
come
in
and
beautify
the
location
you
know.
So
it's
a
lot
of
things
that
we're
gonna
do
with
this
property.
Just
to
make
it
look
better.
You
know,
so
it
can
be
when
we
renovate
it
and
do
those
things,
and
even
with
mr
boone
one
of
the
things
with
I
would
I'm
going
to
put
in
an
amendment
for
that
alleyway
because
it's
been
there,
it's
been
like
that.
M
I
guess,
since
they
had
the
building
and
they
closed
it
in
and
it's
been
fenced
in,
so
it's
already
fenced
in
and
I'll
just
ensure
my
neighbors,
that
it's
not
going
to
be
anything.
That's
going
to
be
a
health
concern
to
them
is
going
to
be
something
that's
just
going
to
better
the
community
and
hopefully
raise
the
property
value.
You
know
up
there
when
you
start
building
up
communities
is
only
going
to
raise
up
the
property
value.
M
M
Yes,
sir,
we
are
going
to.
We
are
going
to
be
employing
more
personnel
for
that,
because
we're
going
to
have
a
staff
that
just
run
the
crematory.
So
we
are
in
that
process
we're
going
to
be
employing
people
to
come
in
and
do
that
and
that.
M
M
So
it's
in
that
crematory,
it's
just
a
sense
of
what
the
our
business
workload
right
now
as
for
it
is
supports
us
putting
the
crematory
in
if
even
if
we
don't
cremate
for
anyone
else,
if
you
guys
are
not
familiar,
and
I
just
in
a
sense
as
far
as
crematoriums
here,
we
only
have
actually
two
crematoriums
in
this
whole
area
that
service
all
of
the
funeral
homes
in
jefferson,
county,
that's,
port,
arthur
and
all
of
those
things
and
broussards
and
clay
bar
are
the
only
two
funeral
homes
that
simmer
that
you
have
crematoriums
and
really
brewstar
is
only
cremate
for
themselves
and
clay
bar
cremates
for
every
other
funeral
home
around
here
you
know,
so
it's
a
thing
for
us
to
where
our
workload
is
to
where,
if
it
makes
sense
for
us
to
put
our
own
in
and
if
we're
able
to
just
do
our
own,
it's
sort
of
like
bruce
ours,
that's
the
workload
that's
gonna
have
so
we're
gonna
employ
other
persons.
M
M
Sorry
this
is
the
first
that
I've
heard
of
it,
but
I
will
reach
out
because
there's
only
one
house-
that's
really
behind
that
property.
It's
only
one
house
behind
it
because
the
the
property,
that's
the
house-
is
directly
behind
the
parking
lot
and
on
the
other
side
there
are
no
homes,
that's
right
behind
it.
So
it's
that's!
That's
going
to
be
the
only
person
that
I
would
assume
that
it
was.
M
M
We
were
just
going
to
replace
the
fence
at
period
not
having
to
do
anything,
because
we
knew
what
we
wanted
to
do
with
the
fence
to
close
it
in,
but
he
in
turn
had
someone
to
come
in
and
they
replaced
actually
the
fence
along,
let's
say
waverly
and
to
the
back,
so
they
all
that
fence
is
brand
new,
but
we
wanted
to
put
a
wood
fence,
a
privacy
fence
to
where
you
could
not
see
in
and
because
of
the
way
that
it
is
not
so
much
on
the
front
side,
but
even
probably
on
the
front
side.
M
Well,
I
mean
it's
one
of
those
things.
Yes,
yes,
sir,
but
even
with
with
me-
and
I
I
think,
with
our
building
when
we've
done
our
building.
Yesterday
we
are
neighbors,
our
property
value
went
up
and
we
have
three
acres
of
land
on
the
back
side
that
we
can't
even
develop
that
our
property
value
went
up
on
it
and
we
can't
even
do
anything
with
it,
but
I
mean,
as
far
as
just
beautifying
the
area.
That's
my
goal.
M
You
know
in
the
sense
of
just
beautifying
the
area
and
making
beaumont
to
be
to
just
make
it
look
better
in
the
areas
that
that
have
been
somewhat
neglected.
N
C
We
have
a
motion
to
approve
with.
There
are
three
conditions
right.
I
C
C
All
right
that
was
the
pz
2020-45,
perfect.
Okay,
with
that,
mr
felso,
we
would
anxiously
await
you
sending
us.
