3.   Noosa Plan

In accordance with Table 11.12 - Categories of Development and Assessment for the Noosaville
Locality – Development other than Material Change of Use, Operational Works for Placing an
Advertising Device on premises requires Code Assessment against the Advertising Devices Code
if not complying with column 2 of Table 14.41 of the Advertising Devices Code. As such, the
proposed Advertising Device is subject to Code Assessment against the Advertising Devices Code.

An assessment against Advertising Devices Code is provided in Attachment 1. The proposal is
identified as generally meeting the relevant Acceptable Outcomes of the Advertising Devices
Code. However, a Performance Solution is sought with respect to the size of the wall sign which
is discussed in detail below.

Inconsistent Advertising Devices
Under Acceptable Solution S1.1, Advertising devices do not include signs with a signface area
exceeding the Acceptable Solutions of this Code or 4sqm, whichever is the lessor. The proposal
involves a sign with a sign face greater than 4sqm. Notwithstanding, the proposed sign is
considered appropriate in that achieves the desired outcomes as expressed through Overall
Outcomes (a) – (f). Specifically, the proposed ‘Actrol’ wall sign:

        Complements and does not detract from the desirable characteristics of the natural and
        built environment in which the sign is exhibited;
        Is designed and integrated into the built form so as to minimise visual clutter;
        Does not adversely impact on the amenity of visitors to Noosa; and
        Does not pose a hazard for pedestrians, cyclists or drivers of motor vehicles.

With respect to the above, the following is highlighted:

        The proposed sign is designed and integrated into the built form and is proportionate to
        the size of the building façade with the sign reflecting 2.5% of the northern façade;
        The proposed sign is less than the total overall signage allowance of 10sqm and seeks to
        consolidate the signage for the premises through a single sign rather than multiple signs
        thereby reducing visual clutter;
        The proposed sign complements the built form environment which it is exhibited. The
        site is located within an industrial business locality which comprises of other signage of a
        similar or greater dimensions.

Signface Area
In accordance with Acceptable Solution S2.1, signage is to comply with the requirements
specified in Column 2 of Table 14-47 Specific requirements for types of advertising devices. The
proposed sign generally complies with the requirements Column 2 of Table 14-47 for wall sign.
However, the proposed ‘Actrol’ wall sign exceeds a signface area of 4sqm. Notwithstanding, the
proposal achieves Specific Outcome O2 as follows:

        The proposed sign is compatible with the character of the industrial business locality in
        which it is exhibited. The locality comprises predominately of large, industrial buildings
        including examples of signage of similar or greater dimensions;
