The purpose of the Waste Management Plan is to facilitate the segregation of waste for the effective
reuse and recycling of such materials. Additionally Council rewards those who segregate waste by
significantly reducing disposal fees at the landfill some items are free. Higher gate fees are charged for
loads of mixed waste.

3 dB(A) above the background noise level
ii. From 7am to 7pm: More than the lower of either –
50 dB(A)
5 dB(A) above the background noise level
iii. From 7pm to 10pm: More than 3 dB(A) above the background noise level.
iv. Pool pumps must not be audible at an effected premises between 10pm-7am
c. Submission of written certification from a suitably qualified person confirming that the
noise levels comply when measured at either the residential boundary or outside the
most exposed part of an affected building, whichever is the closest to the equipment.
This is required immediately after installation of the equipment and prior to any
occupation of the building, and in a format approved by Council. This assessment must
take into account noise from all fixed equipment on the property e.g. swimming pool
pump, heating equipment, that may increase the overall noise level emitted.
Note: it is recommended that the consultant that will be engaged to certify the noise levels of
mechanical equipment is asked to comment on the position and installation of equipment at
the plan design stage, this way noise problems can be minimised or avoided cost effectively.
87. Noise from residential building works shall comply with the following –
a. Limited to between 7:00am to 6:00pm Monday to Saturday.
b. All reasonable measures are taken to minimise noise emissions.
c. Not permitted on Sunday or public holidays.

7 ADVISORY NOTES
The following Advisory Notes are for information purposes only and do not form conditions of
approval:
Land Development
1. Should any changes or modifications to the approved plans be required as a result of
construction constraints, a Change to an Existing Approval Application under the Integrated
Planning Act must be made. Amended plans clearly indicating the changes must be lodged
with this application along with the appropriate fees.
Environmental Health
2. The development should be undertaken in a manner that causes no detrimental effect upon
the amenity of the neighbourhood by reason of the creation of excessive noise, lighting, air-
borne hazards, atmospheric pollutants (including dust or odours) nuisance or any other
emissions in accordance with the nuisance provisions of the Environmental Protection
Regulation 1998 or Council’s Local Law No. 12 – Control of Nuisances.
3. In accordance with the Environmental Protection (Water) Policy 1997, all sand, silt, mud, paint,
cement, concrete, builder’s waste or rubbish should not be permitted to enter 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.
Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Act 2003
There may be a requirement to establish a Cultural Heritage Management Plan and/or obtain
approvals pursuant to the Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Act 2003.
The ACH Act establishes a cultural heritage duty of care which provides that: “A person who carries
out an activity must take all reasonable and practicable measures to ensure the activity does not
harm Aboriginal cultural heritage”. It is an offence to fail to comply with the duty of care. Substantial
monetary penalties may apply to individuals or corporations breaching this duty of care. Injunctions
may also be issued by the Land and Resources Tribunal, and the Minister administering the Act can
also issue stop orders for an activity that is harming or is likely to harm Aboriginal cultural heritage or
the cultural heritage value of Aboriginal cultural heritage.
You should contact the Cultural Heritage Co-ordination Unit on 07 3238 3838 to discuss any
obligations under the ACH Act.

14 RIGHTS OF APPEAL
You are entitled to appeal against this decision. A copy of the relevant appeal provisions from the
Integrated Planning Act 1997 is attached.

the conditions contained within the development approval. If Council agrees or part agrees with the
representations, a “negotiated decision notice” will be issued. Only one “negotiated decision notice”
may be given. Taking this step will defer your appeal period, which will continue after Council makes
its decision. (Refer to sections 3.5.17 and 3.5.18 of the Integrated Planning Act 1997).
