In this instance, the "work" was scheduled by a cellular company.  I have
yet to have ANY cellular company notify me of anything, including erecting a
~150 ft. monopole between two directional arrays with careless abandon (for
which they were fined...to them, just part of the cost of a new site).
Cellular companies appear to only answer to a higher authority, and it ain't
the FCC.  Have you ever heard of a cell site's license revocation for
repeated and willful rules violations?

" In my opinion.....
 It's not too much to ask, but you're expecting the wrong people to provide
 the notice.
 Whoever ( or whichever station ) scheduled the work should be the one to
 coordinate with other users of the tower.
 In fact, ( without looking ) I believe that's what the rules already
require !
