<br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />From: <br /> <br />Flannery Construction, Inc. <br /> <br />To: <br /> <br />Cathy Mehelich <br />City of Elk River <br /> <br />Date: <br /> <br />Tuesday, September 12, 2006 <br /> <br />Dear Cathy, <br />I am writing in regards to the proposed re-routing of traffic on Jackson Avenue to allow <br />erection of precast concrete for the Jackson Place building, and to address construction limits, schedule <br />and staging issues. <br />Construction Limits: Please find attached a sketch of the proposed temporary change in the <br />construction limits. Along Jackson Avenue, you'll notice that the southerly two-thirds of the <br />construction fence would move west to provide operating space for the crane, plus the required safety <br />margin between the crane and the foundation wall. The northern third of the Jackson Avenue fence <br />would remain unchanged, as would the fence on the south, east and north sides. This design preserves <br />one-way, $outhbound traffic on Jackson Avenue. It also preserves one handicapped parking space and <br />three regular spaces. (please note that background drawing I used to make this sketch does not show <br />the location of the angled parking spaces accurately. Though it appears that a total of five spaces <br />would be preserved, in reality it would be four.) . <br />Schedule: The duration of the re-route would be 20 working days. This includes one day to <br />move the fence, 15 days for precast erection, three days for masonry and one day to move the fence <br />back to its original location. Our target datefor commencement is October 30. We will update that <br />schedule in the next week and hope to be able to set a firm date at our September 27 meeting with city <br />staff. <br />Staging: From westbound Main Street, trucks would enter the site at the southeast gate and <br />wait within the construction limits. A few trucks would be unloaded from this location. The majority, <br />however, would pull out through the southwest gate onto Main Street, then back up into the <br />construction area on Jackson, adjacent to the crane. When empty, they would leave downtown via <br />westbound Main Street and Proctor Avenue. We will provide tlaggers to control traffic during these <br />operations. <br /> <br />Thank you for working with us as we developed this plan. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br /> <br />?At-t a--iA~ <br />eth Allen, Flannery Construction <br /> <br /> <br />n___-4 "'-_ ,,____;_ f'lt,ft^, I"U'1l. ,.... ... <br />
