Commissioner VanScoy questioned how many complaints the City has received. Community <br /> Development Director Gladhill did not have a specific number, but believed six to twelve <br /> complaints were received each spring. He commented that these complaints were regarding <br /> contractors starting prior to 7:00 a.m. He reported that the City's current standards met the <br /> PCA's standards. <br /> Commissioner VanScoy did not see a reason to change the City's standards. He did not believe <br /> that the proposed language changes would eliminate all noise complaints. Community <br /> Development Director Gladhill was of the opinion that public perception would be improved <br /> based on the code amendment and noted that construction hours could now be negotiated. <br /> Commissioner Andrusko recommended that all emergency City work be allowed outside the <br /> stated construction hours. He suggested the language regarding construction completed by <br /> Ramsey homeowner's be clarified. <br /> Commissioner VanScoy did not see a need to change the 10:00 p.m. construction stop time so <br /> long as staff was allowed to negotiate construction hours. <br /> Commissioner Brauer feared how staff would be impacted if they were forced to negotiate with <br /> each construction company. <br /> Community Development Director Gladhill questioned if the Commission wanted to change the <br /> ending hours. <br /> Commissioner Brauer stated nine neighboring communities specify 10:00 p.m. as their ending <br /> time, while the remainder specified 8:00 p.m. as the ending time. He supported an 8:00 p.m. end <br /> time. <br /> Motion by Commissioner VanScoy, seconded by Commissioner Andrusko, to recommend staff <br /> proceed with the Code Amendment keeping the end time 10:00 p.m., that staff be allowed to <br /> negotiate end times to 9:00 p.m., and that staff note the language changes discussed by <br /> Commissioner Andrusko. <br /> Motion Carried. Voting Yes: Vice Chairperson Bauer, Commissioners VanScoy, and Andrusko. <br /> Voting No: Brauer. Absent: Chairperson Levine, Commissioners Maul and Nosan. <br /> 5.05: Receive Future Business Park Infrastructure Analysis Preliminary Report <br /> Presentation <br /> Community Development Director Gladhill presented the staff report stating the purpose of this <br /> case is to review a preliminary report from Bolton & Menk on required infrastructure <br /> improvements to the City's future business park; and to take comments/suggestions. <br /> Planning Commission/August 6,2015 <br /> Page 7 of 9 <br />
