Council grants temporary noise‑exemption for waterline work on 1800 North
Summary
Pleasant Grove approved a permit to exceed noise restrictions for Barrows Construction to perform two days of critical waterline work on 1800 North within a June–July window to avoid detours that would affect North County Boulevard traffic and nearby hospital access.
The Pleasant Grove City Council approved a permit allowing Barrows Construction to exceed local noise limits for up to two days between June 10 and July 31, 2025, to construct a waterline across 1800 North. The permit was requested to avoid detouring traffic on North County Boulevard, a major collector that provides access to a nearby hospital.
Public‑works director Winerton (presenter) explained the operational necessity: “Noise ordinance to allow the contractor perform some necessary and critical water line work in 1800 North as to avoid a detour and a lane shut out on North County Boulevard and particularly the hospital.” The council approved the permit by motion and voice vote; no council member recorded opposition.
Council members asked no substantive follow‑up questions during the item. Staff indicated the work would be limited to the two permitted days and that standard mitigation and notification procedures would be undertaken to inform nearby residents and businesses.
Ending: The permit allows the contractor to schedule the work within the stated window and move forward with waterline construction that city staff described as avoiding larger traffic disruptions.
