Eastsiders: Expect some noise
Looks like street repairs in East Grand Forks' north end will start at 5 a.m. tomorrow instead of the usual 7 a.m.
That would normally be against the law, but the City Council allowed it because construction crews are falling a little behind schedule.
Assistant city engineer Brad Bail said the city found out more curbs and gutters need repairing than it had thought and asked the contractor to take on the additional work. He said they're scheduled to be done at the end of the week.
Construction crews will mostly be building forms for pouring concrete so it will not be especially loud, Bail said, but it won't be real quiet either.
The project was bid at $1.7 million. The additional work will not mean higher special assessments, however.
