ANNEXE 2
CONDITIONS CONSISTENT WITH THE OPERATING SCHEDULE
1. Noise or vibration shall not emanate from the premises such as to cause persons in the neighbourhood to be unreasonably disturbed. In general terms, noise from the premises should not be audible within any noise sensitive premises (e.g. dwelling) with windows open for normal ventilation especially after 11pm. This shall be assessed from the boundary to the nearest residential properties, on all sides of the licensed premises. The criteria that shall be applied are:
(a) Before 11pm - noise emanating from the premises shall not be clearly distinguishable above other noise.
(b) After 11pm - noise emanating from the premises shall not be distinguishable above background levels of noise.
2. Doors and windows shall be kept shut during entertainment to reduce noise breakout. A management scheme shall be in place to ensure this situation remains.
3. Staff shall check prior to entertainment, and periodically during the entertainment, that all windows and doors are shut.
4. A senior member of staff (manager) shall assess the impact of any noisy activities on neighbouring residential premises at the start of the activity/entertainment and periodically throughout the activity/entertainment to ensure levels of noise have not increased.
