               Thus, from an environmental noise perspective, the application can be supported on the basis of
               the use complying with the David Moore report and specific conditions including the above noise
               control measures being imposed. It will be appropriate to add to and amend current noise
               conditions to make sure that adequate control is required by any approval.
               The peer review agrees that the proposed development can locate at the site without causing a
               impacts to the surrounding amenity based on the inclusion of acoustic attenuation involving:
                      •    At ground level, the incorporation of a 1.8 metre acoustic fence along the sites northern
                           and eastern boundary as shown at Figure 6; and
                      •    At the upper level the use of fixed windows facing the site’s northern and eastern
                           boundaries.

               The following images detail the acoustic fence required under the previous Other Change approval
               and the modified extent of acoustic fencing required by the acoustic assessment of the current
               application.

                          Right Image – 1.8-metre-high acoustic fencing recommended for the proposed development.


               To enable the closure of the upper-level windows, three air conditioning compressor units will be
               located within the northwestern side boundary. The acoustic report confirms that if all three air
               conditioning compressors are operating at the same time and at their highest noise level (heating
               mode), the noise levels to the closest residence to the northwest comply with the steady state
               noise limits for the complete 24-hour day with no additional noise control measures required around
               the compressors.
               Conditions have been included within the recommendation to reflect the above acoustic attenuation
               requirements.
