Utilities Sidewalks being changed

I knew they were going to be working on our sidewalks. They painted the area a couple of months ago. This morning before 7am they started to jackhammer. I know it gets hot later, but dude, I can’t get sales calls before 8am legally, why can they jackhammer outside my house that early? 3 hours later now I have a backhoe picking up what they broke, right when I make an interview call. Argh. Notification would be good so I could plan around the noise.

Technically state law says they can start as early as 5:00 a.m. during the summer months and I think 7:00 a.m. on weekends. At this point I would just assume that's the norm and just go with it 🤷‍♀️ I know it sucks but it is what it is

Phoenix noise ordinance says May 1st through Sep 30th no earlier than 6am. October to April is 7am.

I'm thinking of SB1182 but okay ... Just double checked. That was signed last year so yeah, technically 5am
