Jenny Soo May 8,2015 Page 8 Noise Mitigation Measure 4.J-1:In addition to requiring that all project developers comply with the applicable construction noise exposure criteria established within the City's Municipal Code 9.04.100, the City shall require developers on the potential sites for rezoning to implement construction best management practices to reduce construction noise, including: a. Locate stationary construction equipment as far from adjacent occupied buildings as possible. b. Select routes for movement of construction-related vehicles and equipment so that noise-sensitive areas, including residences, and outdoor recreation areas, are avoided as much as possible. Include these routes in materials submitted to the City of Pleasanton for approval prior to the issuance of building permits. c. All site improvements and construction activities shall be limited to the hours of 8:00 a.m.to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Saturday. In addition, no construction shall be allowed on State and federal holidays. If complaints are received regarding the Saturday construction hours,the Community Development Director may modify or revoke the Saturday construction hours. The Community Development Director may allow earlier"start-times"for specific construction activities (e.g., concrete foundation/floor pouring), if it can be demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Community Development Director that the construction and construction traffic noise will not affect nearby residents. d. All construction equipment must meet DMV noise standards and shall be equipped with muffling devices. e. Designate a noise disturbance coordinator who will be responsible for responding to complaints about noise during construction. The telephone number of the noise disturbance coordinator shall be conspicuously posted at the construction site and shall be provided to the City of Pleasanton. Copies of the construction schedule shall also be posted at nearby noise-sensitive areas. Mitigation Measure 4.J-6c: For all of the potential sites for rezoning,the City shall require noise disclosures and noise complaint procedures for new residents at the project site. The requirement shall include a)a disclosure of potential noise sources in the project vicinity; b)establish procedures and a contact phone number for a site manager the residents can call to address any noise complaints. Similar to the 2014 project,the 2015 project would result in temporary construction noise, albeit to a lesser degree than the 2014 project due to the reduced unit count. However,with the implementation of Mitigation Measures 4.1-1 the applicant's contractor's would be required to minimize construction noise through strategic placement of equipment and vehicle routes, limited construction hours,and compliance DMV noise standards,and designation of a noise disturbance coordinator.
