Jun. 17th, 2006 08:08 amI am trying to find a link for what time within the city you can start do to contractor type of work. I have some workers on my street who have been banging and doing major work since 730 this morning. My fiance said you can get fined for that, he used to know what time it was (he is a contractor) but he forgets he thinks it is either 9 or 10 on weekends, does anyone know where I can find this info online. I cant sleep damn it!

(I do feel your pain, for some time the house across the street from mine was only worked on from 7-9am. What's up with that?)

Date: 2006-06-17 02:44 pm (UTC)fyi: you can violate this ordinance at least a couple times before getting an actual fine. The guys next to us have been working every day, including memorial day and sundays, for the last few months. They've been relatively courteous so I'm guessing no one's complained and that's the only way these things are ever enforced.

Date: 2006-06-17 04:49 pm (UTC)labor workers/contractors and such all usually work weekends so the earlier they start the earlier they get done AND if they want to work later they get waaay more jobs done in a day.
