John Szerlag, City Mana r <br /> <br />Methodology Employed To Grant Waivers From The Construction Noise Ordinance <br /> <br />As you know, the proposed construction noise ordinance allows the Manager to grant waivers <br />from the limitations contained therein. And in order to achieve continuity and clarity on what <br />will be waived and how we'll enforce these waivers, please refer to the following: <br /> <br />1. Waivers will not be granted for construction activities outside the building footprint. <br />This means that outside construction activity will not be eligible for a waiver. C) <br /> <br />II. Construction work performed within the building footprint which does not cause <br />excessive noise may be waived upon approval from City Management. While not all- <br />inclusive, the following slate of indoor activities can be considered for waiver; <br />building clean-up, material stocking, mechanical/electrical/plumbing work, drywall <br />finish including painting, flooring, other finish work. <br /> <br />In terms of defining what constitutes "excessive noise" from the above referenced building <br />interior work, we will use a standard of 65 decibels from the nearest property line. Of course, any <br />activity granted a waiver that exceeds this noise level will be subject to our schedule of fines and <br />the waiver will be automatically revoked. <br /> <br />Please feel free to contact me if you should have any questions. <br /> <br />C) Of course, concrete foundation pours, which occur once per building project, will be eligible <br />for a waiver. <br /> <br />AJS/iw <br /> <br />Grant Waiver Construction Noisc Ord.
