He exgressed the opinion that it would have been ille- gal for fthe commission to have granted the permit under the cir- cumstance: If the building commission is Riven the right to issue permits, that | commission is responsble for them, he sad. “Are they automatons and must they grant every permit applied for?” he asked. Continuing, he said that the right to issue permits is vested in the building commission and the commission must use discre- tion. He pointed out hazard in such locality located as the property is, the Landers plant on High south of the railroad tracks. A |garage erected right up against a factory is a hazard, he sald, “Is it unsound exercise of discretion to re- Ituse it?” he asked.
