5.0 LEVEL OF ASSESSMENT

    The triggers for the development application requirements are outlined below as per Division 12, Table 9.10 of
    The Noosa Plan. As the proposal involves multiple illuminated advertising devices that can’t be considered self-
    assessable, a code assessable development application assessed against the Advertising Devices Code is
    required.

                                        a) not complying with Column 2 of
                                        Table 14-41 of Advertising

                                        b) High impact sign

    As per Table 14.41 of the Advertising Devices Code, the proposed advertising devices can’t be considered self
    assessable as a) the maximum signface of the window/wall sign graphic exceeds 4m2, b) the maximum
    combined sign face area of all signs exceeds 10m2, and c) there is more than 1 illuminated sign per frontage.
