ITEM TITLE: REQUEST BY LAYTON CONSTRUCTION COMPANY AND THEIR SUB-
CONTRACTORS TO WORK ON HOSPITAL EXPANSION CONSTRUCTION
OUTSIDE THE HOURS OF 7 AM AND 6 PM.
ACTION
REQUESTED:
Approve/not approve the following motion:
ALLOW CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES OUTSIDE OF THE HOURS OF 7 AM AND 6
PM, IN ORDER TO COMPLETE CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES IN ASSOCIATION
WITH THE MCKENZIE WILLAMETTE MEDICAL CENTER EXPANSION IN AND
AROUND 1460 G STREET.
ISSUE
STATEMENT:
Section 5.220(c) of the Springfield Municipal Code restricts the hours that construction
activities may occur to between 7 am and 6 pm. To help facilitate completing the expansion
of the McKenzie Willamette Medical Center in a timely manner, and reduce the project’s
impact on traffic, Layton Construction Company has requested to perform work outside the
hours of 7:00 am and 6:00 pm. The request is for the period July 1, 2016 through June,
2018. It is noted in the request that typically the work will occur within an hour or two prior
to or after the permitted hours of construction with minimal overnight disruptions.
ATTACHMENTS: 1. Special Noise Permit Application from Layton Construction Company.
2. Work Area Plan.
DISCUSSION/
FINANCIAL
IMPACT:
Due to the nature of the project, after hours work is requested to facilitate its timely
completion.
Possible sounds that could be emitted include engine noise, back-up beeper, excavating,
hauling and loading, air compressors, cutting equipment, hammering, voices and other
general noises associated with construction. The noise associated with this construction will
be minimized to the maximum extent possible. Because of the minimal proposed expanded
hours of work indicated in the request significant residential impact is unlikely.
