Regular City Council Meeting <br /> Monday,June 17, 2019 <br /> Page 7 <br /> Mr. Englund indicated that was correct. <br /> Councilmember Willmus indicated he would be supportive of work hours that <br /> would be 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m., which would be a little bit of a compromise and <br /> give the company some flexibility outside of typical hours of operation for the <br /> businesses and still a reasonable time for the neighbors to enjoy some peace and <br /> quiet as well. <br /> Mayor Roe asked to clarify if that was for all types of activities. <br /> Councilmember Willmus affirmed that clarification. <br /> Councilmember Etten appreciated the City has gotten various feedback and <br /> thought it would be worthwhile to bring the contractor back up for a question or <br /> two. <br /> Mr. Greninger came back up to the table. <br /> Councilmember Etten thought it was probably not fair for Mr. Greninger to speak <br /> for tenants in the sense of knowing how the tenants negotiated for them but if the <br /> City were to do some sort of balance like this, one of the things he was thinking <br /> about is all jackhammering be done by 9:00 p.m. and the digging and footing <br /> preparation could be done later in the evening. He wondered if that was some- <br /> thing that could be made to work on his end. <br /> Mr. Greninger indicated it could work for his team. He thought jackhammering <br /> could be done from store closing until 11:00 p.m. and the removal the next day. <br /> Councilmember Etten stated he would recommend stopping the jackhammering at <br /> 9:00 p.m. so the tenant may need to close the store 2 hours earlier the day of the <br /> work to be done to get it done. <br /> Mr. Greninger indicated he could not speak for the tenants, but his company was <br /> open to doing something like that. <br /> Councilmember Willmus thought a little bit of this is background where the pre- <br /> vious typical normal quiet hours would have been 10:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. He <br /> thought that providing some sort of flexibility also helps to move the project <br /> along. He appreciated the perspective the neighbors brought forward but also an <br /> understanding of the logistical issues that are involved with construction, con- <br /> struction management and actually doing these things. It is also difficult for the <br /> tenants there that have normal hours of operations to cease at 9:00 p.m. Coun- <br /> cilmember Etten's request would not be giving the construction company much of <br /> an opportunity to do anything as far as the heavy removal and there is going to be <br /> some noise associated with it which he thought a fair compromise would be to ex- <br />
