Public holidays are legally days where construction noise is not permitted on building sites, yet on Easter Monday, Richmond residents were woken to the sounds of drilling coming from the Williams Corporation construction site in Perth Street.
They did the same on Waitangi Day (although that date it was the din and ground vibration of heavy earth moving diggers that broke the silence), so have a documented history of flouting the law.
Perth Street residents had the site shut down after reporting the Easter Monday offence to Noise Control.
A message was also sent to our local City Councillor, Deon Swiggs, asking him why the CCC are not doing more to bring Williams Corporation to account, instead of seemingly turning a blind eye to their antics on a regular basis.
Councillor Swiggs thus far has not responded.
At least two other Williams Corporation construction sites were open.and activew on Easter Monday with loud construction noise emanating from their Latimer Sqaure site. Noise Control were alerted to that offence also.
