Beyonce's mom Tina Knowles' 'eyesore' Texas beach house that's enraging neighbors
After being in disrepair for nearly 20 years, Texas officials plan to demolish a beach-front home on the Gulf of Mexico belonging to Beyonce's mother, Tina Knowles.
A $1.4 million house belonging to the superstar's mom is in a wealthy enclave Pirate's Beach in Galveston, where residents are required to maintain a country club membership.
However, Knowles' mangled home has been deteriorating for 16 years, after the house was hit by Hurricane Ike in 2008.
'I mean obviously, it's a little bit of an eyesore. Depending upon your perspective, a lot of an eyesore,' resident Richard D'Antoni told Fox 26.
Aside from its obvious need for a facelift, the house literally sticks out as it's the only property that is physically on the sand.

It's unclear why Knowles has not made the repairs asked of her by the City of Galveston, Fox 26 reported
Other homes are close to the beach, not on it.
'On the other side, there's pilings you can actually see through.
'The slab has fallen. It's fallen worse just from last week's storm,' Pirates Beach resident James Munoz added.
'Right now, tide is low so you're not going to see the worst of it but normally the tide comes up high enough where the bottom of the house is covered.'
Neighbors had been patiently waiting for Knowles to make repairs and stay in the community so they could continue being neighbors with Beyonce's mother.
'Oh of course, yes, yes. I mean who wouldn't? It's Beyoncé. I mean come on,' Munoz quipped.
The beach house has foundational damage, city officials state
A total or partial collapse of the house is feared by city leaders
Galveston officials have been in contact with Knowles about the options available to help her make repairs.
Because her home was damaged by a natural disaster, the State of Texas offered Knowles $150,000 to move the property, revealed local city council member Marie Robb.
But so far, nothing appears to have been done.
'I'm concerned at least the deck, or a good portion of the house could collapse, which is why we're moving forward with the demolition...considering it's 2024 and Hurricane Ike was in 2008, I'd say we've given them more than ample time to respond,' the councilwoman stated.
A demolition order could come in 60 days.
Knowles has not commented on the scandal. Her publicist told the outlet that she may be traveling.
Despite her own lack of care for her beach home, Knowles exhibited hometown pride recently, clapping back after Charles Barkley for disparaging remarks he made about Galveston.

Knowles defended Galveston, her hometown, recently when sports announcer Charles Barkley slammed it for having 'dirty a-- water'
'We're going to send them to Galveston where that dirty a-- water be washing up on the shore. You people think they at the beach,' Barkley said as part of his NBA coverage for TNT in April.
'Chuck we don't play about Galveston Texas! You better watch it sucker,' Knowles responded on Instagram.
'Our water might not be blue, but it is still the beach and we love it! In fact, what you probably don't Know is It's an Island !! Yes me and @angiebeyince still rock our BOI necklaces ( Born On The Island) Jay sent this to me and Angie B Yesterday ! He asked us if we're gonna let him talk about our city like that! All Good @charleswbarkley we got a great laugh. So yal don't start no S___T.'
After Knowles' post, Barkley apologized to the Texas icon's mom.
'Ms. Knowles, I don't want that smoke. I don't want the Bey Hive and Jay after Chuck,' the sports announcer said. 'I apologize.'
Despite not keeping her home up to community standards, Knowles' defense of the island community cemented her hero status in the eyes of locals.
'Yeah, I saw Tina's response, and we love her for that response because we love Galveston, but Barkley probably wouldn't have any nice words to say about the condition of this house,' Munoz said.
