4.5        JUDGEMENT NO. 765 OF 2020 (3 SEPTEMBER 2020)

Noise emanating from Noosa Civic Shopping Centre and impacting the proposed residential development
is subject to a judgement by the Planning and Environment Court (Judgement No. 765 of 2020, dated 3
September 2020).

      5.    Prepare and submit to Council of approval with an Operational Works application a revised acoustic
            report which includes measures to mitigate noise generate from the shopping centre operations and
            equipment, including deliveries, truck movements and rubbish collection. This report should consider
            attenuation at the noise source as well as a noise barrier along the shared boundary of Lots 19 and
            21. All measures to mitigate noise must be implemented prior the submission of the subdivision plan
            to Council.

            Noise attenuation is required to achieve the following acoustic quality for potential residential uses of
            Lots 17-19. The measurement location must include receivers being placed at the closest point to the
            future residential and office buildings.

4.6        ADOPTED NOISE LIMITS

Based on the relevant applicable criteria for the Noosa Residential Apartments, Hofmann Drive reviewed in
previous sections, the summary of proposed noise criteria related to the site is listed below in Table 10.
