What steps will be taken to mitigate the impact of the construction?
There are federal and state codes, city ordinances and legal requirements of the individual construction contract that provide protection from many of the impacts encountered during a public construction project. In this library expansion project, the city has delineated additional measures, contained in the contract specifications, that mandate further actions that the contractors must take to address a multitude of issues from control of dust, noise, traffic and rodents to site safety and tree protection. We will also maintain a web site, a telephonic hot-line, and a bulletin board that are all intended to further support the city’s mitigation efforts.
