Cover Letter - Response to Information Request

        unreasonable impacts from the distillery and the proposed smoke house will not introduce
        or additional impacts, being separated by the distillery land use.

7.      The proposed use is a food and drink outlet that is commensurate with what is expected to
        occur within a local centre zoning. Reasonable and relevant conditions can be imposed to
        ensure that it will not cause unreasonable amenity impacts including that:-

            a) The approved use must not operate outside the hours of:
                  i.  6am to 10pm Sunday to Thursday and public holidays
                 ii.  6am to 12:00 midnight Friday and Saturday; and

            b) Any live music must be contained within an enclosed acoustically treated
               environment.

        Such conditions would be typical of those imposed on food and drink outlet uses that
        involve outdoor dining areas.
