<br />to erect at their plant located at 2500 0ounty Bt., one 20,000 gallon storage tank. They
<br />now have at this location three storage tanks of the s~me capacity. This location has been
<br />previously pass~ o~ by the Oouncil as a suitable place for ail storage and I see no re,son
<br />why permission shouId no~ be granted.
<br />
<br /> Fire Inspector Shannon and myself have visited the premises. The property of the
<br />Oil Company is immediately adjacent to the Belt Line Railroad tracks and it will not be neces-
<br />sary for them to acquire any further property, as the location of the proposed tank adjoins
<br />that of the other three tanks. I therefore recommend that'~this permissio~ be granted by the
<br />Counci2, the tank to be e~ected under the supervision of the Fire Inspector and in conformity
<br />with ordinance covering ezection ~f oil ~tanks."
