Additional change info for surf club 132004.4078.10

                10pm. Details of the proposed means to close the north eastern deck area shall be
        submitted to Council prior to issue of a Development Permit for Operational Works.


This condition references the limited use of the North-Eastern deck (currently only permitted up until
10pm) and we have requested that this condition be removed (as above)

The limitation on noise levels in this condition only relates to the level of outdoor dining noise (we
would respectfully suggest that this means the level of noise generated by patrons and the like when
dining) and does not relate to music noise.

The new Acoustic Report details the level of noise which are sustainable (under various operating
scenarios) on the deck areas of the Cub and compliance with these will ensure that the operation of
the club does not have any negative impact on the local neighbourhood or community.

We would also provide the following comments from the Acoustic Engineer who undertook the
acoustic testing in relation to the above condition:

            o   This condition requires entertainment noise testing to OLGR requirements – this has
                been done. I do not believe the BG + 5dBA limit during the daytime and evening was
                originally intended to be applied to entertainment noise. Rather, it was intended to
                be applied to patron noise associated with outdoor dining.
            o   Section 8.3 of the RR Report provides general guidance on attenuation measures
                that can be implemented to contain entertainment noise – upgrades such as doors
                along the inner and outer edges of the deck form noise attenuation measures and
                have been implemented since the original noise impact study was prepared.
            o   The RR report assessed outdoor dining on the deck areas until 10pm. In the
                assessment the RR report also applied partial screening for patron noise (-3dBA) as
                there were no windows along the outer edge of the deck – instead there was an
                acoustic panel system that provided partial acoustic screening plus visual screening
                (see Figure 5 in the RR Report). For the current situation, there are now windows
                along the north eastern deck and the northern deck - closing the outer windows to
                the decks would provide around -20dBA of attenuation and allow patrons to use
                those areas until midnight.
