Town Planning
1.	There is to be no detrimental effect upon the amenity of the neighbourhood by reason of the creation of excessive noise, lighting nuisance or other emissions.  The developer is to pay special attention to potential noise nuisances arising from the air conditioning plant and swimming pool equipment and the potential for disturbance to the adjoining residential property to the east.  Swimming pool or spa pumps are to be located in a manner which prevents noise disturbance beyond the subject land.
2.	The open space and setback areas are to be landscaped in accordance with Council’s Policy on Landscaping Guidelines and a properly prepared landscape plan to be submitted to and approved by the Manager of Planning, prior to the issue of a Building Approval.  Such landscaping is to be completed in accordance with the approved landscape plan, prior to the premises being occupied and maintained at all times thereafter to the reasonable satisfaction of the Manager of Planning.
The plans are to address the existing dining area in The Parade, as required by the relevant Engineering conditions.
Landscaping carried out in the Hastings Street setback area is to include some substantial specimens to assist in an early landscaped treatment to the satisfaction of the Manager of Planning.  Landscaping works may also necessitate some modifications to the proposed awning across the Hastings Street setback area.
3.	Deleted.
4.	Deleted.
5.	The landscaped area on that part of the site between the dining areas and the northern property boundary and the walkway to the west, must have a minimum width of 1000mm and a minimum average width of 1500mm over both landscaped areas.
6.	No pedestrian access is to be obtained from the Parade to the dining area.  Two pedestrian accesses through the landscaping from the walkway to the dining area are permitted but these must not exceed a width of 2.0 metres each.
7.	The walkway at the western edge of the site is permitted to be closed during late night and early morning hours as may be agreed by the Manager of Planning.
8.	Not less than 16 carparking spaces will be available free of charge to customers and patrons of the commercial premises whilst they are open for business and for staff employed at the site. Any Community Management Statement must specify this condition.
9.	Existing trees on the site and within road reserves are to be retained, except where required to be removed due to building operations or the conduct of the approved use.  The landscape plans referred to above are to denote areas of existing vegetation or existing trees proposed to be retained.  The existing Moreton Bay Ash tree in the south eastern section of the site is to be retained.  The developer shall submit a $20,000 security to ensure the protection of the tree.  That security will be returned after a period of 12 months has elapsed following completion of the construction and provided the tree remains in a healthy state, to the satisfaction of the Manager of Planning.  In the event of the death of the tree or if there is evidence the tree is dying, during such period, a replacement tree to the value of the security will be provided by the developer to the satisfaction of the Manager of Planning.
It is noted that the existing rubber trees and umbrella trees present on the site will be required to be removed to accommodate the proposed development.
10.	Any advertising sign or device is to comply with the provisions of Council's policies on advertising.

The security required, must be lodged within two (2) years of the date of Council’s decision.  Alternatively, a written request may be made prior to this date, seeking an extension of the two (2) year lodgement period.  If neither of the above actions have been undertaken within two (2) years of Council’s decision, then the decision in respect of this application is void and ceases to have effect.
16.	The provisions of this approval are to be effected, prior to the commencement of the approved use.  Council reserves the right to call upon the bond or guaranteed sum referred to in this approval to effect compliance with conditions.
17.	The Town Planning Consent Permit may be revoked pursuant to Section 4.14 of the Local Government (Planning and Environment) Act if commencement of erection or works have not been made in accordance with that Permit or the rights conferred by that Permit are not exercised within two (2) years of the date of issue of the Permit.
