The Town Clerk read a report from the Building Inspector
in which he indicated that a permit could not be granted for the
signs requested in the letter of Thomas Hunter, representing J. J.
Murdock, dated July 13, 1938, which was referred to him, together
with a blue print. His reasons are as follows:
"Ground signs over 6 feet high shall be constructed of
incombustible material except moldings and cappings may be of
wood. Plan of sign to be filed with Building Department showing
construction, etc. Fees $5.00 for each sign. Signs shall be
placed back of property line a distance equal to not less than the
height of sign. An open space of at least 18" shall be maintained
between bottom of sign and the ground except for supports and fill-
ing in lower space with lattice work. "
Mr. Ford Anderson, representing J. J. Murdock, appeared
and stated that he did not believe the permit was necessary under
provisions of the Building Code because such signs as were contem-
plated were exempt from the provisions of the article relating to
signs and bill boards.
After discussion the Board stated that they did not agree
with this contention.
Mr. Anderson then stated that the signs would be constructed
of sheet metal and wooden frame which would be creosoted and which he
considered incombustible material.

in which he stated that he would deny the permit notwithstanding
Mr. Anderson' s statement, on motion by Councilman Griffin, seconded
by Councilman Mandeville, the following resolution was adopted:
WHEREAS, J. J. Murdock has heretofore made application
to the Building Inspector for a permit to erect eleven
(11) signs on the property of Johnethel Realty Corpor-
ation and as shown on a certain diagram filed with the
application, which signs are to be 8 feet long and
12 feet high in size and which are to advertise the
property upon which they are erected for sale ; and
WHEREAS, the Building Inspector has refused to grant
a permit for such signs claiming their erection
would violate the provisions of the Building Code;
RESOLVED, that the erection of said signs is hereby
permitted, provided that the wooden frames of said
signs other than the sheet metal be creosoted and
that the signs be erected as indicated upon the
diagram filed with the application.
