1h. Request for Waiver from Standard Work Hours, The Meadows at Longacres1 CITY OF 14- CHANHASSEN 690 COULTER DRIVE • P.O. BOX 147 • CHANHASSEN, MINNESOTA 55317 (612) 937 -1900 • FAX (612) 937 -5739 OFFICIAL ENGINEERING COPY TO: Charles Folch, Director of Public Works /City Engineer Received FROM: Dave Hempel, Assistant City Engineer Revision No. Approved b City Engineer DATE: June 7, 1994 Date SUBJ: Consider Request for Waiver from Standard Work Hours Approved by City Council The Meadows at Longacres, Lundgren Bros. Construction Date Project No. 94 -7 The City has received a petition from Mr. Michael Pflaum of Lundgren Bros. Construction requesting the City consider an extension to the normal work hours on Saturdays. The request is to extend the work hours by two hours from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Saturdays. Currently, the development contract restricts them from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Monday through Friday and 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Saturdays with no work on Sundays or legal holidays. Because of the extremely large size of this project and the amount of grading work that needs to be done prior to utility construction, the applicant is requesting to take advantage of any dry periods that we may have. Staff has sent a copy of this agenda item to homeowners within 500 feet of the plat boundaries. We are requesting that the residents contact staff or the Council Members for their input regarding the extension of work hours on Saturday. Given the remoteness of this site, staff does recommend granting the applicant's request to extend the work hours to 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Saturdays. This extension of work hours would only be during the site grading, utilities, and street construction phases and not during the home building phase.

Wayzata Blvd. Re: Authorization to extend Construction Hours for Sub- division Improvements at The Meadows at Longacres Wayzata Minnesota 55391 Dear Dave: (612)473 -1231 Please accept this letter as Lundgren Bros. Construction's petition to permit development construction (not home construction) from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Saturdays. Because of the remoteness of this site, it is not likely that moving the starting time ahead two hours will cause any problems. The extension is needed to take advantage of any dry periods we may have. The many perched wetlands make the soils on this site unusual- ly difficult, but contractors are reluctant to work on Saturdays when they are limited to short hours. The extension is being sought for grading, utility and street con- struction. Very truly yours, LUN GREN BR . CONSTRUCTION, INC. G Michael A.
