Agent of Change Principle for Night-time Economy Uses

When new evening and night-time economy noise-generating uses are proposed near existing or permitted sensitive land uses, the agent of change principle will be applied. New noise-generating development, such as music venues, night club, pubs, cultural spaces, entertainment, and leisure venues proposed close to existing or permitted residential and other noise sensitive development will be required to mitigate any noise impacts on neighbouring residents and businesses. New noise generating uses such as bars and nightclubs or hot food bars should be discouraged below or directly adjacent to existing or committed residential developments.
