Consideration will be given to:

i.the timing and number of past or proposed events

ii.restrictions on hours of operation

iii.the number of attendees.

b.Multiple activities occurring within Puhinui Reserve and Colin Dale Park could result in cumulative adverse effects. Measures should be put in place to avoid simultaneous events being staged where this would have significant adverse cumulative effects on adjoining properties.

7.Effects on adjoining properties

a.Indirect light spill and glare should not cause adverse effects on the safety, amenity, including night time amenity and sleep disturbance, of neighbouring residential properties or roads.

b.Whether the cause of the light spill or glare is related to site factors or topography could be mitigated through design specifications as specified by a professional illumination engineer or alterations to the site.

c.Whether the effects of light spill or glare can be reduced by the addition of glare guards or an alternative lighting arrangement.

d.Whether the intensity of use will be compatible with the amenities of surrounding existing and foreseeable future development. This will include consideration of the maximum number of people to be provided for on the site, the hours of use, signs, and other generated effects.
