201807852 Attachment No. 1-2018/12/3 City of Grand Island, Hedde Building LLC is requesting to temporarily close off parking to the North and East of our building (see attachment "parking closure phase r & "parking closure phase 2") located at the corner of 3rd & Locust. The reason for the request is to first and foremost protect the public (additionally for insurance reasons) from "falling debris" and from the general hazards of the construction process. Along with the general safety aspect we are requesting the closure to provide a staging/receiving are for materials/equipment. Phase 1 will encompass the exterior work along the two street facing sides (minor demolition, upper windows, storefront windows, brick & sill repair, upper parapet wall, painting, etc.). Ideally this work will be completed "before the snow flies" but that is unlikely therefore, phase 1 will start upon a signed agreement and end no later than 6/1/2019. After the exterior work is completed phase 2 will be put into place mainly to accommodate material staging as there is absolutely no space of that task in the area around the building. Phase 2 will last from the start date and end no later than 5/20/20 As for the "traffic control" plan see the attached document "signage". The plan would be to provide and maintain two signs saying Sidewalk Closed Ahead, temporarily attached to a tree or light post (ie. 2x4 pipe clamped to one or the other with the sigh boited to the 2x4. Considering the temporary fencing, the plan would be to have 10' wide x 6' tali chain link panels ("fencing" file) with bases ("base" file) fastened temporarily into the asphalt/concrete with fasteners ("fastener" file). After construction is complete the holes from the fasteners will be filled with an approved sealer. it is requested to use fasteners instead of sandbags for the longevity of the fencing (wind/snow) and the long duration of the project. Additionally, the fencing will have a screening similar to a tarp material as well as a hi vis tape wrapped around the uprights every 10'. Finally, we will be requesting signatures from the surrounding neighbors requesting "permission" from at least 50% of them to allow us to close the parking for the requested time ("closure signatures" & "Buildings for signatures" documents). In addition to the signatures we will be filling out a temporary license agreement due to the long time frame of the project once we have agreed upon all the details. Hedde Building LLC will be responsible for snow removal from the interior portion of the fenced off area to be melted on site, removed from site or piled on site (inside the fenced off area). It is understood that the City Of Grand Island will not be held liable for damage to the fencing material although it is requested that realistic care be taken when plowing as to not intentionally damage the fencing. If snow removal becomes a serious problem we will relocate the fencing to the curb for the duration of the winter snow season. Additionally, Hedde Building LLC will abide by the following requests: Shall not block visibility of the traffic signals at 3rd and Locust; Do not secure fence until exact position is approved by City. Shall not block pedestrian crossing/access at SW corner of 3rd and Locust except for temporary closures tasting no more than 30 minutes. Shall restore pavement including restoration of holes caused by fasteners, pavement markings, repair of any cracks due to construction (etc.) photo documentation prior to construction would be good here. usually we put this on the contractor. Shall maintain work area, signing, and fencing in a safe and orderly manner; any complaints or safety issues shalt be resolved within 24 hours of notice. Fencing will need some reflectivity to it. This should also be approved by the City prior to permanent placement of fencing. Amos C Anson 308.390.2455 / amosanson:agma+.corn
