PROTEST NEW GARAGE
IS FIRE MENACE

Fire Chief w. w. Berry has re-
ccived a complaint through Attorney
Carl c. Jones from Milton NJ. Branch
in regard to a garage which is being
erected on Western avenue just west
of the bridge over the MesSalonskee
by Wallace Wescott or his wife,
Maude G.. Wescott. The letter from
Mr.. Jones states that Mr.. Branch
claims that the building is nothing
but a fire trap and that it is intend
ed to use the same for commercial
garage and that it is being construct
ed and used in direct violation of the
ordinance of the city of Watervllle.
Mr. Jones further writes: If this is
true, coupled with the fact that it is
within a very short distance of a
hospital, it should receive your i'm
mediate attention. I understand a
b frame building is now being erected
which would be a violation Of 80
ton Z of an ordinance to regulate
automobil garages and that 1t has
not yet received your approval as
required by Section 81 of Chapter
VII, relating to garages in the ordi-
nance regulating the use. handling.
storage, and sale of inflammable
liquids. etc. also that it is not being
constructed in accordance with Sec
ton IS of the same chapter and ordi-
nance. I am further informed that
it is intended to erect an addition to
the garage within 10 feet of Mr..
Branch's home, and that the ground
has already been broken for same.
IF on investigation you find my
information is correct will you kind
ly give this the attention which 1t
deserves
The garage which is being built is
a part of a frame building which was
saved from a fire last winter. The
building has been moved to another
lot and it is understood that for that
reason it becomes as a new building
A gasoline tank for public service
has already been placed and the
building sheltered on Sunday three
automobiles and a truck.
