RE: 16
Dear Mr. Ensey:
I am pleased to provide details pertaining to my firms intent to develop a 240,000 SF institutional quality industrial
building in LaPorte Texas. Enclosed is the completed SCUP form, a proposed site & conceptual plan, a brochure
from a Generational Commercial Properties project in Houston and some construction photoÈs of that same building.
This project includes the acquisition of a twelve-acre parcel. Generational will platt the property into a single
parcel. Generational will develop a 240,000 SF tiltwall industrial building on a speculative basis while purusing
tenants for the space.
Generational Commercial Properties is requesting approval for the development of the parcel with all codified
NAICS Codes available under the LI zoning.
Generational Commercial Properties is a commercial development firm with offices in Texas. Generational
