    Background

    In 2008, CoA developed Event Noise Mitigation Standard Operating Procedures that set out noise levels that different types of events must adhere to for minimising the impact of noise during the events. A copy of the latest version of the Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) were included as part of this consultation pack.

    The SOPs now require review, as the characteristics and landscape of the City have changed quite substantially since 2008 (i.e. increased number of buildings and fixed businesses, and changes in features within the Adelaide Park Lands).

    Project Information

    The City of Adelaide Strategic Plan 2016-2020 sets out a clear aim of being a great place to live and to increase the number of people attending festivals and events in the public realm. There are some challenges with achieving this balance that arise from the impacts of noise.

    Whilst the project will look holistically at events in the City, there is a priority focus to determine ways to minimise noise impacts from events on North Adelaide residents.

    In the early stage of the project, key stakeholders were asked to provide their feedback on their experience of being in proximity to noise from events. The key stakeholders are:

    • Organisers of major sized events held in the City;
    • A sample group of organisers of medium sized events held in the City;
    • City residents/ resident groups;
    • City businesses; and
    • City precinct groups.
