i'm not actually sure if they finish today, but if they continue to jackhammer and drill at 1am for multiple days i'm going to lose it
@whitequark I genuinely thought this was illegal. I wonder if they're skirting it by technically not being in a residential zone or something. either way really shit.
@gsuberland no this is smack in the middle of a residential zone
@whitequark the fuck.
I'm like 80% sure there's a noise ordinance law about this.
@whitequark if you've got the bandwidth for it I'd send a complaint to the council about it. even if they finish tonight it's a signal that they will get future backlash about granting work permits for night in that area. but appreciate that it's Yet Another Thing to do while being tired.
@gsuberland @whitequark I’ve had this happen before when living on a major road, I think they decided the disruption to residents was outweighed by the disruption of an extended closure on one of the core routes through the city.
@gsuberland oh they've been doing it for years like that. just, usually for no longer than one night and during night only. and not so loud
@whitequark sounds like they got complacent with the work permits :/
