VII. Review and Comment - Construction Rules and Regulations
Mr. Matzko said he would like some feedback on the Construction Rules and Regulations. The
intent is to communicate to the contractors the relevant rules in the Town of Avon for
construction.
Commissioner Evans said there needs to be a disclaimer stating that this document is not all the
laws concerning construction within the Town of Avon. He said that this document would be a
helpful guide to help every homeowner, builder and contractor.
Ms. Griffith agreed there is a need for a disclaimer.
Mr. Matzko said there are checklists that will be attached to this document summarizing relevant
processes and sources of information.
Commissioner Karow asked if the Town of Avon required a cash deposit. He said it seems as
though we need to beef up the code.
Commissioner Sipes suggested that there should be a statement on the signature page stating that
the applicant has read and agrees to all the rules. The Commission was in agreement about:this
point.
Commissioner Evans suggested on page 3 of 10, in the first line that the word "safe" be deleted.
He said the Town does not want to be in the position of defining what is safe.
He also suggested in the 4`s line down on page 3 that the word "not" be inserted. Commissioner
Evans asked why electrical contractors are exempt from paying registration fees when plumbing
and mechanical contractors have to pay even though they all are licesened by the state.
Commissioner Karow asked about the pupose for screening potable toilets. He suggested this be
defined in the Constructions Rules and Regulations.
Commissioner Karow asked what was wrong with handwritten construction signs. Mr. Hodges
said that many times the inspectors are not able to read them and said it is also a safety issue.
Commissioner Morrison drew everyone's attention to page 4 and asked if staff was requiring
trailers to be screened. The Commission reached a consensus that trailers should no be screened.
Commissioner Evans suggested we give contractors the option of either screening or keeping the
portable toilets off the street, and add language stating that as soon as it is practical thee be
moved off the street. The Commissioner decided to leave the language concerning portable
toilets as written.
Mr. Hodges said radios should not be heard off site.
