          Noise
          50.    Written certification is required from a suitably qualified person confirming that
                 sound pressure levels from all mechanical plant and equipment comply with the
                 following:
                 Air-conditioning and Refrigeration:
                     7am to 10pm: Maximum level allowable = background + 5dB(A)
                     10pm to 7am: Maximum level allowable = background + 3dB(A)
                 Pumps:
                     7am to 7pm: Maximum level allowable = background + 5dB(A)
                     7pm to 10pm: Maximum level allowable = background + 3dB(A)
                     10pm to 7am: No audible noise.
                 Assessment and certification is required immediately after installation of the
                 equipment and prior to any occupation of the building. All equipment should be
                 operating at the same time to test the overall noise level created, with the
                 measurement location at either the residential boundary or outside the most
                 exposed part of an affected building - whichever is the closest to the
                 plant/equipment.
                 The certification must be submitted to Council, which certifies that operational
                 noise from any fixed plant and equipment complies with the requirements of this
                 Decision Notice.
    B.    Find the following are sufficient grounds to justify the decision despite conflict with the
          Planning Scheme:
          1.     The multiple dwelling use is existing on the site.
          2.     The development will provide centrally located small dwelling units with access
                 to Tewantin’s facilities and services.
          3.     The development’s small dwelling units will increase residential housing options
                 in the locality and are likely to be relatively affordable.
          4.     There is no identified need for further community or infrastructure facilities within
                 Tewantin and the development will not unduly constrain land available for
                 commercial or community uses consistent with the site’s zoning provisions.
                                                                                             Carried.
