NO PERMIT TAKEN.

REFUSE TO SECURE
ONE FOR THE ERECTION OF THE
NEW HIGH SCHOOL. BUILDING
The A. s. Reed and Brother Company
have as yet failed TO take
Cassidy for the erection OF the new High
School building at Delaware avenue near
Adams street.
II appears that Contractor Reed made
application to Inspector CASSIDY for a
permit to erect the school building at
the actual cost to him, ana that Mr.
Cassidy refused The permit on the
ground that the builder should pay for
the privilege Of building in accordance
with the bid that was presented by him
and accepted by the Board OF Education
for 0he construction Of the school build
ing.
This caused some dispute and an opln-
Ion was asked FOR by Mr.. Cassidy from
City Solicitor Conrad. Although the
opinion has been received by the build
ing inspector. ne does not see NJ 20
make Il public, but from the fact that
Reed Brothers have SIN refused TO take
out a permit unless NJ is granted In the
manner they claim, Of is Judged that the
decision OF Mr.. Conrad Is adverse TO the
city.
The law as provided by city ordinance
is evidently defective, OF tina point in
asmuch as II makes a distinction rsla-
tive to certain buildings. Section 8 Of
the ordinances providing FOR building
regulations for building inspector, and
prescribing his duties, for the city OF
Wilmington, states that: III any owner,
agent, builder or contractor, shall COM
mence and proceed to erect any building
for stores, dwellings. manufacturing on
mechanical purposes. or shall erect any
stable or storehouse for storing grain
or any other commodities; for the alter
alton. or Shall commence the repair. Of
any building without giving previous no
tice. and taking out permit from the
office OF the building Inspector FOR the
same. he or they shall forfeit or pay
for every such offence q fine OF ffty
dollars"
And this IL just where the hitch Gomez
IN. and this Is also the point upon which
The A. s. Reed and Brother Company
are holding out. There Is no provlso II
the ordinance for school buildings
churches nor any structures OF like sort
and the A. 8. Reed and Brother Com
rhny are evidently holding out on tina
point 1t appears to be a strange fac
that the contractors would stand out OF
a matter Of si7. and involve the buildni
inspector IN a litigation to test the val
idlty Of the law. IL Is asserted that th'
contractors forwarded Mr.. Cassidy I
check for the amount OF the permit les
the percentage on their profit, but tina
he promptly returned II.
Ever since the new High School build
ing has become a possibility citizens o.
Wilmington have been Kicking at TIN
cost II II. and before the structure 8
completed more howls viii probably b.
heard.
