'-'~.~ j,;-. ....,~. <br /> <br />City of LaPorte <br />Post Office Box 1115 <br />LaPorte, Texas 77572-1115 <br /> <br />Attention: Mr. Mark Lewis <br /> <br />Reference: Building upgrade and Setback Variance <br />Lots 1 & 2 of Block 3 of Becks Addition <br />to Oakhum: Addition an Addition in the <br />City of LaPorte <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Lewis, <br /> <br />I appreciated the opportunity to speak: with you the other day. By this time, you should have <br />received an architect's drawing and a legal description from Mr. Tim Broadheud. <br /> <br />I purchased the above referenced lot at Auction in March of 1994 and closed in April. . I was <br />extremely impressed with the compound nature and feel of the property. It was my intention <br />to renovate the existing house. The original structure is seventy years old and has been added <br />onto over the years and as recently as 19837 I have had builders, architects and stroctural <br />engineers look at the house and have tom out portions of the interior to best assess the condition. <br />Much of the additional work, as well as the original construction is not up to current building <br />codes. Any worthwhile renovation which would include foundation work, filling under the <br />house and bringing everything up to code is prohibitive on a cost effective basis. A partial <br />renovation leaving anything that may not actually require upgrading to code is not a very <br />desirable final product in my mind. <br />
