| | | MR. SOTILLO STATES THAT HE IS OUT OF TOWN AND THAT HIS |
| | | EMPLOYEES ARE TELLING HIM THAT THE PROPERTY AT 6600 S. |
| | | DIXIE HWY. IS REDOING THEIR PARKING LOT. THE MACHINERY |
| | | THAT IS BEING USED IS CAUSING ALL OF THE SURROUNDING |
| | | STRCUTURES TO VIBRATE HEAVILY AND HE FEELS THAT THERE MAY |
| | | HAVE BEEN SOME STRUCTURAL DAMAGE. HE WANTS SOMEONE FROM |
| | | THE CITY TO GO OUT AND INVISTEGATE THE SITUATION AND STOP |
| | | THE CONSTRCUTION IF NEED BE. |
| CLOSING | 05-01-2009 | THE CONSTRUCTION HAS BEEN TEMPORARILY HALTED BY THE |
| | | ENGINEER OF RECORD PENDING FURTHER INVESTIGATION TO |
| | | DETERMINE WHETHER THE VIBRATION IS EXCESSIVE. NO SIGNS |
| | | OF DAMAGE OR EXCESSIVE VIBRATION WERE NOTED BY THE CHIEF |
| | | BUILDING INSPECTOR WHEN HE VISITED THE CUSTOMER'S BUSINESS |
| | | ADDRESS (6605 S DIXIE HWY) TODAY. THE WPB CODE OF |
| | | ORDINANCES, SECTION 34-71 AND SECTION 94-310(E) BOTH STATE |
| | | THAT VIBRATION RESULTING FROM CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITY, |
| | | PERFORMED DURING THE HOURS OF 7AM - 6PM M-F AND 8AM - 8PM |
| | | SAT AND SUN, IS EXEMPT FROM THE VIBRATION RESTRICTIONS IN |
| | | THE CODE OF ORDINANCES. SO WITHOUT BEING ABLE TO OBSERVE |
| | | AND SIGNS OF DAMAGE CAUSED BY THE VIBRATION THE |
| | | CONSTRUCTION SERVICES DEPARTMENT CANNOT SHUT DOWN THE |
| | | OPERATION AS REQUESTED BY THE CUSTOMER. |
| RESPONSE | 05-01-2009 | KEN CONRAD (CHIEF BUILDING INSPECTOR) VISITED MR. SOTILLO'S |
| | | ADDRESS AND MET WITH HIS EMPLOYEES. KEN NOTED NO IMMEDIATE |
| | | SIGNS OF DAMAGE DUE TO VIBRATION. KEN REPORTED HIS |
| | | FINDINGS TO MR. SOTILLO WHO THEN SPOKE WITH DOUG WISE |
| | | (BUILDING OFFICIAL). WE FIND THAT WPB CODE OF ORDINANCES, |
| | | SECTION 34-71 AND SECTION 94-310(E) BOTH STATE THAT |
| | | VIBRATION RESULTING FROM CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITY, PERFORMED |
| | | DURING THE HOURS OF 7AM - 6PM (OR 7PM) M-F AND 8AM - 8PM |

| | | THE CODE OF ORDINANCES. WE ALSO SPOKE TO JONATHAN BRAMLEY |
| | | (DIRECTOR OF ENGINEERING SERVICES DEPARTMENT) AND MANNY |
| | | GONZALEZ (PROJECT ENGINEER). MANNY ADVISED THAT HE HAD |
| | | CALLED THE ENGINEER OF RECORD FOR THE 6600 S DIXIE HWY |
| | | PROJECT. THE ENGINEER OF RECORD SAID THAT HE WOULD HAVE |
| | | THE CONTRACTOR HALT THE CONSTRUCTION UNTIL THEY CAN |
| | | INVESTIGATE THE MAGNITUDE OF THE VIBRATION. DOUG WISE |
| | | CALLED THE CUSTOMER AND LEFT A MESSAGE. DOUG WILL ADVISE |
