ACTION REQUESTED:

Adopt the resolution to allow construction to occur on Saturdays from 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at The Springs at Apple Valley multi-family residential project, located at 14650 Foliage Avenue. 

  

SUMMARY:

John Koller, Project Manager with HORIZON Design Build Manage, the project management company for The Springs at Apple Valley apartment project contacted the City requesting that they be allowed to work Saturdays.  Mr. Koller has asked for the weekend hours so that his concrete workers can install foundation forms for the buildings in the 280-unit apartment project, located 14650 Foliage Avenue.  He has indicated that revisions to the foundation design has caused construction delays and working on Saturdays would allow them to catch up. Concrete pouring will not occur on the weekends and the use of construction vehicles are expected to be very limited. 

 

BACKGROUND:

The Comprehensive plan amendment, rezoning, preliminary plat, and site plan/building permit authorization for The Springs at Apple Valley, a 280-unit apartment project, located on 20 acres in the northeast corner of 147th Street West and Foliage Avenue was approved the City Council at their February 12, 2015, meeting.  Conditions with the site plan/building permit resolution limited earthmoving activities to the hours of 6:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Friday and building construction to the hours of 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. Monday through Friday, which is typical for development projects located within or adjacent to established neighborhoods.  Since this project is located directly adjacent to the Midtown Village residential development, weekend hours were not considered. 

 

Staff did contact a representative of the Midtown Village homeowners association and informed them of the request and asked her what the reaction of the residents would be to the project manager's request for weekend hours.  She presented the request to the association's board and the majority of its members did not oppose the weekend request for the concrete work as long as it would not be precedent setting.  Condition no. 2 of the draft resolution addresses the board's concern.
