Court Order Sought For Sixteenth Street Gas Station Permit
A mandamus suit filed in district court by Mrs. Marjorie Weller Nelson and Carter Oil Co seeks a court order forcing Greeley to issue a building permit for a $2200 service station at Sixteenth Street and Seventeenth Avenue. The suit names Mayor Oscar Beck, six city council members, and City Building Inspector Charles B. Elfeldt, challenging a June 18 resolution restricting nonresidential permits on Sixteenth Street. The plaintiffs claim the city actions are arbitrary and cause irreparable injury, with damages cited at $10,000 and rising, plus court costs.
