The number of building permits issued have jumped at a corre- sponding rate. In 1947, 416 per- mits were issued to repair, add to or build residences, fac- tories and garages. In 1955, 1428 were issued for a 343 per cent in- crease in eight years. So far this year, 1438 permits were issued to surpass the 1955 total and set a new record. And the year is not over.
