Regular City Council Meeting Monday, December 2, 2019 Page 33 Ms. Munion thought the company needed to provide a flagman or someone on days when there is that much traffic to prevent someone from being hit at that curve. She explained Roselawn has not been a good neighbor on this either and not reached out to them. When she called them, the conversation was very lim- ited and the cemetery had hoped that it would be done by this fall. Obviously, it is not. Another thing is when she contacted the city to ask for a finish date, she was surprised to see that one had been estimated or established as 2018 and here it is going into 2020 and work will still be going on. Someone told her there is no end date on those permits. Mr. Munion explained on the days the company is hauling there are sixty to eighty-five, trucks that come by there and that is very disruptive. Ms. Munion explained she was woken one morning at 2:45 a.m. because some- thing was being delivered to the site and it was loud. Mr. Munion noted that has happened several times. He did not know if there was someone who could monitor this more closely or as a person who lived there, if he had a phone number that he could call to send someone out to tell the drivers to return after 7:00 a.m. That would be helpful. Mayor Roe thought the city needed to do some follow up on the issues brought up and there is certainly no reason not to call 911 even if it is not an emergency be- cause the dispatchers will figure out what is going on. Mr. Munion explained his biggest concern is the safety aspect of this. Mr. Culver explained staff has had several conversations with the contractor about doing things outside of the work hours and loading and unloading the lowboy tractors. It is hard to catch them unless somebody that works for the city witness- es it. One thing the city is considering putting in the permit or escrow is a fine system that if caught working outside of the working hours that the city will fine the company and take it out of escrow but there is still the bourdon of proof on that if the city is going to do that. Mayor Roe thanked staff for looking at this and thought it was something the city needed to continue to pay attention to. He was all for the notion of notification with a number to call and perhaps an afterhours number to call from the contrac- tor or responsible party. He stated that was a key part of it along with keeping the neighborhood up to date on what is going on. Councilmember Laliberte added if the contractor gives the city a schedule, then the city needs to hold the contractor to that schedule. 8. Approve Minutes
