    The changes to security conditions seem reasonable however the changes to conditions relating to outdoor speakers/amplification should not be approved.

    As a resident of the Dominion which is directly opposite NAS on Forbes St, we are directly and regularly impacted by noise resulting from the regular events at NAS. NAS has done a good job of managing the events and reducing the impacts of these events on neighbours, however private functions such as weddings have caused issues for residents due to the conduct of attendees and organisers. Complaints to those organising these events regarding outdoor noise levels have in at least one instance resulting in an assault on a resident.

    Private functions are more poorly policed and generally cause significant disruption to residents, any additional relaxation of the terms will have further impact upon local residents.

    The current conditions are not perfect but have achieved a reasonable balance, outdoor use of speakers will likely lead to further conflict between residents and private function organisers.
