PLANNING & ORGANISATION COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                     21 JULY 2015


12.   Noise emission from any new mechanical equipment associated with the use shall comply
      with the following requirements:
      12.1. Air-conditioning and Refrigeration
               7am to 10pm: Maximum Background + 5dB(A)
               10pm to 7am: Maximum Background + 3dB(A)
13.   Submission of written certification from a suitably qualified person confirming that the noise
      levels from any new mechanical equipment comply when measured at either the residential
      boundary or outside the most exposed part of an affected building, whichever is the closest
      to the equipment.
      The assessment and certification is required immediately after installation of the equipment
      and prior to any occupation of the building, and in a format approved by Council. All
      equipment should be operating at the same time to test the overall noise level created.
      Advice: It is highly recommended that the person you engage to certify the installation is
      involved at the plan development stage so they can recommend where this equipment is
      best located. They can also advise about noise enclosures and can make other
      suggestions to avoid noise problems. It is a lot more costly to try and deal with noise
      problems after everything is built.
Refuse
14.   Refuse containers must be provided in accordance with the requirements of the
      Environmental Protection (Interim Waste) Regulation 1996 and (Waste Management)
      Regulation 2000, for the storage and collection of refuse.
Landscaping
15.   Landscaping upgrades shall be undertaken to the frontage areas generally in accordance
      with the submitted plan titled “Landscaping Plan” drawn by Lynda McDougall for RG
      Strategic dated 15/04/15.
Advisory Notes

           menu and maximum number of patrons at any time, is to accompany the application
