FROM:Micah Heckman, Project Engineer
TO:Mayor and Council Members
Subject:
Extended Construction Hours for the Canterbury Crossing Development.
Policy/Action Requested:
Approve suspension of City Code Sec. 130.45, Noise Elimination and Noise Prevention, Subd. C.4, Hourly Restrictions on Certain Operations, allowing Canterbury Crossing project contractor, S.M. Hentges and their subcontractors, to perform work from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Saturdays through the end of October 2021.
Recommendation:
Approve the requested action.
Discussion:

City Code Section 130.45 restricts the hours of construction operation from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. on weekdays, and 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. on weekends and holidays.

 

Contractors working on the Canterbury Crossing development project have requested the city to extend working hours to begin work at 8 a.m. on Saturday mornings through the end of October 2021.

 

This extension will help meet the project deadlines. The impacts from the earlier generated noise is not anticipated to be a substantial nuisance in this area of the city for the prescribed times. If property owner complaints are received by the City, the ordinance suspension can be revoked at the discretion of the City Engineer.

 

With Council's approval, a public news release and notice to meet the City Code requirements would be placed in the Shakopee Valley News and on the City's website.

Budget Impact:
None.
