A request for a night time noise permit at the 3rd Street Chick-fil-A restaurant got approved by Bloomington’s board of public works at its regular Tuesday meeting.

The noise permit is related to the planned installation of some awnings for the drive-thru area of the restaurant. The request came from the Georgia-based Horizon Construction Company. Georgia is also the national restaurant chain’s home state.

The calendar dates for the planned construction of the steel-framed shade structure run from July 21 through Aug. 24.

Horizon wants to be able to work between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. from Monday through Saturday, and all day on Sundays.

The request was made to allow Chick-fil-A to maintain its normal business hours, according to the board’s meeting information packet.

The board’s approval came with some concerns and caveats, which were discussed at the board’s Tuesday meeting. Continue reading “Bloomington Chick-fil-A gets OK for night time noise permit to install awnings” →
