O'NIELL, J.
Defendant was prosecuted for operating a gasoline supply tank in front of his automobile repair and supply establishment, at No. 4133 St. Charles avenue, in New Orleans, without having obtained a permit from the commission council of the city.
The ordinance which he was accused of violating, No. 2126 of the Commission Council Series, adopted February 2, 1915, and amended by Ordinance No. 5453, approved July 8, 1919, is as follows, viz.:
The amendment made on July 8, 1919, was the adoption of the provisions of section 3, making the ordinance apply to portable tanks and pumps, and changing the numbers of the original sections 3 and 4, to 4 and 5, respectively.
Palmisano had been in the automobile repair and supply business at No. 4133 St. Charles avenue for about two years, operating portable tanks for supplying gasoline to automobiles in front of his establishment, when the ordinance was amended so as to apply to portable or movable tanks. He had a ten-year lease on the building and had recently renovated it at an expense of $ 2,500.
Soon after the ordinance was amended so as to apply to portable tanks, Palmisano made application for a permit, and an ordinance was introduced by the commissioner of public property, proposing to grant the permit; but the ordinance was rejected by unanimous vote of the commission council, including the vote of the commissioner who had introduced the ordinance. Four weeks later, Palmisano was arrested by a police officer, on the complaint of some one on the other side of the street.
