Hagearty for a permit to build & garage on High street on & lot adjucent to the Landers, Irary & Clark factory, was rejected and today Judge Willlam I, Ma gan, acting for Hagearty, Is prepar- ing papers for an appeal to the eity court. The Hagearty case has heen be- fore the building commission, for in sight. A hearing was held and property owners in the neighbor- lood objected to graoting the peti- tion. The city engineer was then asked to make a suryey and deter- mine if the proposed garage would be in a residential district. Thirty- three buildings and lots were classed as residential and 10 parcels of land .as non-residentfal. The Burritt ho- tel, Elks club and Business and Pro- fesslonal Women's club were classed as residential. Commissioner Viets and Walsh argued that 76 per cent of the property within a radius of 00 feet is non-residential and the former moved that the permit he granted, which motion was seconded by the latter. Commissioner I, Wex- ler gave expression to a feeling that the commissioncrs voting in favor had their eyes closed to the facts in the ‘cage, and Commissioner Walsh parried quickly with a remark that his eyes were not closed, nor was {there anyone in the meeting room that eould close them. | ‘Cormmissioner Hinchliffe and Quinlivan voted against granting the permit and Chairman Wexler broke {the tie by voting against the permit. Miss Julia Naples applied for a permit to build a two-family house at 260 Hart street and it was re- jeeted. Adam Ostrowski who was granted a permit last week to huild a ship- ping room on his factory on Wash- ington street, askel permission to build closer to the street than was first planned. This the board re- +fused to allow. Joseph Zuk's application for a permit to build a store on Miller street was rejected, The commission authorized the inspector to have a warrant sworn out for the arrest of Charles Schaf- fer of 668 Arch street who, it is al- leged, erected a garage without a permit, Discussing the appeal in the Hagearty matter this morning, Judge Mangan said his client will al- lege that the neighborhood is non- residential, that while all property owners who attended the public hearing were opposed, still there was not a representation equal to 75 per cent of the property within 500 feet and that the building will not cause a decrease in the value of adjoining properties. 3 PLAINVLLE NEWS (Coninued from Page Seven) Plainville Briefs Mrs. E.
