At a meeting of tho health and police
committee this morning tho members
voted .to kill an ordinance which It Is
claimed would repeal tho present build
ing ordinance and allow brick buildings
wtth frame structures to be erected to a
height of seven stories. It waa claimed
at tho raeetln that tho ordinance was
drafted by a local architect In order to
add an extra story to a building which
was recently damaged by fire.
The loker , in the ordinance waa ex
plained by Building Inspeotor "Dobson
and former Councilman George 8.
Shepherd, who waa in tho council cham
ber last week when the measure waa in
troduced. Shepherd waa - a member of
the council when the building ordinance
waa passed and waa known aa the father
of it When he learned of tho introduc
tion of the ordinance he immediately
ruahed to tho assistance of his own or- .
dlnance and waa on hand when the
measure came up this morning.
Another ordinance waa recommended -by
the committee-before ita scope could
be explained. It practically repeals the
fire escape ordinance until the author of
the measure finishes a building for
which he is architect and then becomes
effective again. . It -Is oxpeotod that
Chief Campbell will be present at the
council meeting; next Wednesday to op
pose the measure when it comes up for
paaaage.
