PLANNING & ENVIRONMENT COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                  7 FEBRUARY 2017


    25.   All landscape works must be established and maintained in accordance with the
          approved design for the life of the development, and in a manner that ensures
          healthy, sustained and vigorous plant growth. All plant material must be allowed to
          grow to full form and be refurbished when its life expectancy is reached.
    26.   The street trees removed for the driveways construction (Venture Drive and Vision
          Court) must be replaced in a cluster of three as indicated on the approved plans. The
          replaced plants must have a minimum pot size of 45 litres and the same species of
          that removed.

          Noise
    27.   Mechanical plant and equipment, a/c units, motors, refrigeration equipment,
          compressors, pumps etc. must be situated within the building or suitably provided
          with noise reduction measures and located as to prevent a noise nuisance beyond
          the boundary of the site and not exceed the levels specified in Table 1.
                                                 Table 1
                             NOISE LIMITS AT A SENSITIVE RECEPTOR
                       (Excludes On-Site Ancillary Dwelling Unit – Caretakers Unit)
           PERIOD            Noise level at noise sensitive place measured as the
                             adjusted maximum sound pressure level (Lamax, adj,T)

           7am – 6pm         Background noise level (LAbg,T) plus 5 dB(A)

           6pm – 10pm        Background noise level plus 5 dB(A)
           10pm – 7am        Inaudible

                              NOISE LEVELS AT COMMERCIAL PLACE
           PERIOD            Noise level at a commercial place measured as the adjusted
                             maximum sound pressure level (Lamax, adj,T)

           7am – 6pm         Background noise level (LAbg,T) plus 10 dB(A)

           6pm – 10pm        Background noise level plus10 dB(A)
           10pm – 7am        Background noise level plus 8 dB(A)

    28.   When requested by Noosa Council, a Noise Impact Assessment Report (NIAR)
          showing monitoring and recording of noise levels must be undertaken to investigate
          any non-vexatious complaint caused by noise emissions from operations at the
          premises. Such monitoring must be undertaken and completed within a reasonable
          and practicable timeframe as nominated by council and be performed by a suitably
          qualified and experienced person.
          The NIAR must be submitted to Council detailing the results of such monitoring and
          recommendations for any measures to achieve compliance with limits outlined in
          Table 1 of this Decision Notice.
    29.   Measurement of sound pressure levels (adjusted for tonality and impulse) must be in
          accordance with Australian Standard AS1055.1 “Acoustics – Description and
          measurement of environmental noise – General procedures”.
          For the purpose of measuring and certifying relevant noise conditions and reporting
          (eg. mechanical plant and equipment, a/c units, motors, refrigeration equipment,
          compressors, pumps etc ), a suitably qualified person is either:
          a.   a Registered Professional Engineer of Queensland, or



                                                                                      Page 15 of 125
