Yes North Sky is indeed replacing a couple of broken Handhole’s which I did not get a permit for.

I have attached a permit request for said Handhole work.

Good Afternoon Michael,

I received information pertaining NorthSky working on behalf of MMC out on 226 Ridings without a permit, and was wondering if you were aware of the work taking place. Please read email below. Let me know on your findings.

As a friendly reminder all franchises are required to obtain a ROW Permit within the City as to section 1.15.2 of Molalla Standard Specifications for Public Works.

1.15.2 Plan Check and Permits

c. Utility Construction Permit: The construction, repair, maintenance, or replacement of all other utilities located within a public right-of-way or public easement, including but not limited to, power, telephone, gas, and cable television shall be required to submit for plan check and obtain a Utility Construction Permit.

d. Right of Way Permit: For all other work done within the Right-of-Way that blocks, partially blocks, hinders or impedes the flow of traffic, cyclists, or pedestrians, a Right of Way Permit shall be required.

Please let me know if you have any question. Thanks

Regards,

Sam Miller | Sr. Engineer Tech.

Sam, I took care of this immediate issue, but when you have time can you help us look in to what happened:

-Customer Zach Boxford, 226 Ridings, called complaining Northsky was blocking their driveway.

-I looked up permit log – no permit that I could see.

-Looked up locate tickets, found 20187994, Northsky working on behalf of MCC. I called Marc Long, the Northsky Superintendent listed on the locate ticket, 971-940-9658 and asked that he check on his crew as complaints were coming in. He agreed.

-I called Zach back and told him what was happening, he then informed me that (a) he works for MCC and so would handle it from their end. I promised we would look in to how this happened on our end.

-So long story short: is Morthsky working without a permit at 226 Ridings?

PS, Zach mentioned his wife is on the planning commission. Not that this matters.

Respectfully,

Andy Peters
