¶2A property owner’s use of his property may be regulated by the government’s exercise of the police power, but not by a neighbor whose veto may be cast out of spite rather than for the public welfare. Just as City of Atlanta v. Hill, 238 Ga. 413, supra, precludes the governing authority from an irrational denial of a beverage permit when all other requirements are met, so should the principle of that case preclude the governing authority from allowing a private citizen an irrational denial of a beverage permit when all other requirements are met. See California v. LaRue, 409 U. S. 109 (1972).
