Description
Hoskinson, plaintiff in error, owner of 1.143 acres of land, applied to the building inspector of Arvada, Colorado, for a permit to construct on this tract a shopping center which would include a supermarket embracing over 4,000 square feet; a drugstore to occupy more than 2,200 square feet; a lunchroom to occupy in excess of 1,600 square feet, and another structure to house four stores for miscellaneous shops; this structure to embrace some 3,200 square feet. The building permit was denied. Hoskinson obtained an alternative writ of mandamus to compel the issuance of the permit, making defendants in error parties defendant in said action. In essence Hoskinson claims that the zoning ordinance pursuant to which the permit was denied is discriminatory as against him and deprived him "of beneficial use of his land by precluding the only use to which his property is reasonably adapted." The ordinance in question was introduced in evidence but a copy thereof does not appear in the record before us.
