Noise Report

•     Worst-case noise criteria at receiver: acoustic quality objectives - day & evening indoor 35dB(A) (outdoor
      42dBA), night indoor 30dB(A) (outdoor 37dBA).

•     Room façade height: 4m

•     Façade open configuration: opening of max 50% of façade (operable windows / doors)

Based on the above assumptions, Table 9 presents the predicted maximum allowable internal patron and/or
amplified sound/music levels. Calculations are included in Appendix C.

*Measured at centre of room equidistant from any speakers

The predicted maximum allowable internal sound levels for patron and/or amplified sound/music are
expected to be adequate for operation of the function room during all time periods with the façade closed.

Function room façades may be open during the day/evening period (7am – 10pm) for:

•     Patron noise and background amplified sound/music only

•     Function space (southwest) to have southwest façade closed for any use

Function room façades to be closed for:

•     Use of amplified sound/music during any time period (louder than background music)

•     Any use during the night period (10pm – 12am)

Refer to Section 7 for recommended noise mitigation measures.
