Michael,

Per your request regarding the next PB meeting and Sunday work…

We are amending our request to allow for Sunday construction through August 
15th.  Our plan remains to primarily use the Sundays between now and early 
April  to accelerate progress on the Southern Building where we are  most behind 
schedule due to the weather.  We believe these Sundays through early April are 
absolutely critical to allowing us to enclose the South Building to enable interior 
work and thus make our delivery date.  After early April, the vast majority of 
exterior construction will be complete and we can work on Sundays on the 
interior of the buildings per our current Notice of Decision.  However, we’d like 
the flexibility to use selected Sundays through August to make progress with 
landscaping, bridges, paving and other such exterior work that may be 
necessary.  We don’t envision using every Sunday through August 15 for exterior 
work but we need the flexibility.

Here are some accommodations we are committed to making to reduce any 
impact of our Sunday work.
1.	We are committed to working a modified Sunday schedule 9- 4
2.	We will also plan not to use loud construction equipment on Sundays when 
possible.  
3.	While there are few neighbors and abutters related to the site, we are 
aware of the nearby Church and we will specifically not perform loud 
construction activities during their Sunday Services.  
4.	We will notify the DPW in advance of our working a Sunday.
5.	We will  agree to avoid construction on a Sunday graduation day and other 
Sundays of peak activity in Durham.
6.	We are generally open to anything reasonable to minimize the noise 
related to the construction and we will continue to work with the DPW to 
make accommodations on Sundays as they may reasonably request.
We look forward to presenting to the PB on Wednesday and thanks for the early 
agenda slot.
