3   Documents and materials that must accompany applications for approval
        An advertising device that doesn’t meet the criteria as a self-assessable sign must have
        the approval of the local government prior to placement either on public land or on
        private land. An application for such signs must include the following information –
           (a) the name of the person making the application; and
           (b) the trading name, address, telephone number and email address of the
                  business under which the approval is to be issued; and
           (c) a plan showing the relevant part of the private land, road, footpath or public
                  place that is to be used to display the advertising device; and
           (d) a signed letter from the land owner if the applicant does not own the land the
                  sign is to be placed on, approving the placement; and
           (e) details of the design, construction, dimensions and contents of the advertising
                  device and how it is to be secured to prevent it from moving; and
           (f) the times the advertising device will be displayed; and
           (g) a copy of a public liability insurance policy of not less than $20,000,000 held
                  by the applicant and which will remain current during the term of approval;
                  and
           (h) the appropriate application fee as determined by the local government’s
                  schedule of fees and charges.

           (b) the device must not exceed the height, dimensions or overall size permitted
                 by the local government for the type of sign; and
           (c) the device must be located on the private property to which it relates or where
                 that is not physically possible, a request can be made to place the sign
                 immediately adjacent to the property to which it relates; and
           (d) the device must not obstruct vehicle or pedestrian traffic and must not
                 constitute a traffic hazard or impede a driver’s vision; and
