Mr. White and' Mr. Munson were in attendance. Mr. White advised the Commission that the building at 251 California Drive is divided into two sections - the rear pwrtion being an ad- dition to the original building. The front building facing on California Drive has been used for many years as a machine shop. The rear addition., konting on Hatch Lane, has been occupied by a sign painter. The present plan is to convert into one building to be used by Air. Munson for auto body repair and. body painting. The original building is concrete, the addition - concrete block. Mr. White stated that the Fin: Department has been contea ftd and there are certain structural changes to be made to meet their requirements.
