Overview

A three-page pamphlet the City of Mississauga publishes among its building documents and forms, the contractor-side companion to its Good Neighbour Guide for Homeowners. It covers site conduct — communication with the client and neighbours, language on site, restroom arrangements — then the jobsite rules: construction fences, garbage, the construction noise window of 7am to 7pm every day except Sunday, parking and traffic with a pointer to the Ministry of Labour on flag persons, trees, mud and dust, water and drainage, and handling neighbour concerns through the city.
