In Victorian first, the City of Port Phillip wants to create “live music precincts” in popular strips with pubs and clubs that host live performances to get some protection against noise complaints....

Live music venues in Melbourne’s inner south could get council backing to keep the volume pumping, even if the blow-ins next door kick up a fuss about sleepless nights.

Residents and businesses in the precincts would not be exposed to unreasonable levels of noise, the council said, and the plan would roll out new guidelines for complaints and help for venues to manage sound levels. “If you chose to live in these beautiful vibrant areas, you have to support the very thing you moved there for,” Mr Mullins said.“If you are going to decide to buy property in that street, you do it because you want to know at 3am there is still going to be 15,000 people on the street.”

This great news. Will prevent the new big $ residents of gentrified developments (St Moritz for a start) from complaining about noise when they have bought in the middle of st kilda. 🎶 🎵 👍

No more ‘fun police’: Venue protected from noise complaintsExclusive: The Enmore Theatre may become the first beneficiary of new laws that aim to strike a more equitable balance between protecting residents from excessive noise and protecting venues from vexatious noise complaints | LindaMorrissmh LindaMorrissmh This is a family owned venue , supporting 5 families. It’s the best in Sydney and this strip is really ‘commercial’. Please allow this wonderful venue to continue without the hassles. We need these great smaller venues that supports the community you are the best LindaMorrissmh This reminds me of the Old Manly Boatshed, a basement live music venue in Manly. Been there for 35 years - commercial above it on street level and a couple of floors of apartments above that. Yet people buy into the apartments knowing there's a live music venue & then complain.🙄 LindaMorrissmh Just buy these people some good quality noise cancelling headphones and the problem will disappear.
