                  mechanical exhausts and plant rooms etc
           •      the use of acoustic enclosures/screens around noisy plant and equipment
           •      operating times
      Environmental Protection
11.   The development should be undertaken in a manner that causes no unlawful
      environmental nuisance under the Environmental Protection Act 1994 by the creation of
      excessive noise, lighting, waste, atmospheric pollutants (including dust or odours) or other
      releases to the environment.
12.   In accordance with the Environmental Protection Act 1994, all sand, silt, mud, paint,
      cement, concrete, builder’s waste or other prescribed contaminants should not to be
      released to or be placed where it could reasonably be expected to move into a roadside
      gutter, storm water drain or a watercourse. On the spot fines apply for such offences.
      Infrastructure Charges
13.   This Development Permit will trigger an “Infrastructure Charge Notice” to be issued in
      accordance with Council’s “Charges Resolution” made pursuant to the Sustainable
      Planning Act 2009 and in conjunction with the State Planning Regulatory Provision
