Staging and Deliveries
Re; 2478 Black Lake Rd. Spring Park
Autumn Ridge Homes in an effort to help reduce frustrations due to the width of Black Lake Rd is proposing an outline of how we will stage deliveries of various materials to the site
and parking for sub-contracted workers. We will be using the mall parking lot at Lake Shores Mall (see attached map) to stage material deliveries for the concrete, drywall and any extra
sub-contractor vehicles.
There are 3 homes that will be notified of time and dates of the concrete and span-crete deliveries.
2563 Blake Lake Rd.
2473 Black Lake Rd.
2486 Black Lake Rd.
2484 Black Lake Rd.
2473 Black Lake Rd.
2447 Black Lake Rd.
1st Month;
Bollig excavating who has done work using Black Lake Rd for a prior project is aware of the difficulties of the road. Bollig will drop and walk in the equipment needed to perform the
excavation work. The first task will be to create a parking area that will be the width of the lot (50’) and approx. 20’ deep with 2” clear limestone. The depth of the parking area
will be increase to approx. 24’ once backfilling has occurred. Any excavation materials needed will be brought to the site and immediately dumped with the truck leaving the site. The
portable toilet will be placed at the NE corner of the lot just off the street. The dumpster when needed will sit next to the portable toilet, the dumpster will not be needed until
roof sheathing has been completed and will be loaded out and remove. The dumpster will be returned for drywall scraping. The small amount of material generated between dumpsters can
be left in the house while work is being performed this way we can better utilize the parking for trucks and cars.
Oscarman masonry will be performing the concrete work for the house. Oscarman has been notified that any vehicle that does not fit on the parking being provided will need to be parked
at the mall and only 1 cement truck at a time will permitted to sit on the road while off loading it’s material. When it comes time to pump material to the footings we’ll need the parking
area for the pump truck and 1 cement truck will need to sit on the road to off load its material. This task will take no longer than 45 minutes to perform and clean up will occur off
site. The 6 neighboring houses will be notified 2 days prior to this happening and will be given an approx. time of day for this task so they can adjust their schedule so is not be
blocked in or out.
The second concrete task will be to drop forms for the walls, this truck will be able to utilize the parking area.
The third task will be to pour the walls and this will be another partial blocking of the road and will take approx. 1.5 hrs and since this occurs usually within 2 days of the footings
the 6 neighbors will have this date already along with an approx. time of day for the task. There will be only 1 truck at a time off loading it’s materials and will perform clean up
off site.
The fourth concrete task will be picking up the forms and the truck can utilize the parking area.
Bollig will then backfill and extend the depth of the parking area and clean up and sweep the road as needed.
The lumber will be delivered to the site using a boom truck and will be able to utilize the parking area when off loading material. Deliveries will only be made between mid morning and
mid afternoon as to avoid neighbor’s leaving or returning from work. During deliveries vehicles will be parked on Warren Ave.
The carpentry crew consists of only 2 carpenters, 1 job trailer, and 1 bobcat. The bobcat will be dropped off and left at the site until framing has been completed and will be utilized
to unload and move material as it’s delivered to the site.
This house does have a span-crete garage with floor panels that will need to be delivered and set. This will occur the same way the concrete was staged. The crane will sit on the parking
area and the truck with the floor panels will be off loaded and placed onto the foundation. This task should take no longer than 2 hrs. The 6 neighbors will be notified 2 days prior
to this happening along with an approx. time.
Once the panels have been set the carpenters can utilize this additional space for stocking the roof trusses and materials.
Months 2-3
From this point on Autumn Ridge will only schedule 2 subs at a time so as to make sure there is enough off street parking provided for those subs to use.
Shingles will be delivered with a boom truck which will sit on the parking area along with 1 vehicle while off loading.
Near the beginning of the third month the concrete for basement floor will need to be placed at which time we will be notifying the 6 homes 2 days prior to this happening. This task
should take approx. 1.5 hrs to off load material and staging will occur at the mall.
Near the end of the third month the upper garage will need to be placed, this will scheduled with no other subs at the site so the parking can be used for the crews truck and the cement
truck can then back directly up to the garage opening to off load its material.
Sheetrock delivery will use the mall parking to stage the sheetrock loads. The boomed truck can sit on the parking area and this will done when no other sub is at the site.
From this point on the deliveries will be simple and quick drops. Autumn Ridge will continue to schedule sub- contractors 2 at a time for the remainder of the project.
Months 4-5
The final partial road blockage will occur near the end and will involve the cement company again when they pour the concrete driveway and sidewalk. This will happen in the same manor
with notifying the 6 neighbors 2 days prior with an approx. time of day and should only take 45 minutes.
This project is expected to take approximately 5 months to complete starting in June and ending sometime in November.
The president of Autumn Ridge Homes (Brian) lives and offices only 3 miles from the site and will be making multiple site visits per day to insure the road is kept free of debris and
to also make sure there are not any problems with the parking area.

Construction hours will follow city ordinance.
