Development Plan - City of Playford - SA.Gov.au

(b)
(c)
(d)
(e)
(f)
a list of tenancies and/or activities conducted within the site may be incorporated in the
advertising display but product advertising should be avoided;
where practical, the advertising display should be located near to the principal public access to
the site;
where the display stands more than 1.5 metres above ground level, it should be located a
distance not less than its overall height from an adjoining property boundary, not being a
boundary to a road;
unnecessary duplication of advertisements should be avoided, limiting their number to
generally one per site and only increasing this number when the objective of identifying the site
to motorists passing on adjoining roads can be markedly improved;
no part of the advertising display should overhang any boundary of the site;
7 A proliferation of free-standing advertising hoardings should be avoided by the concentration of
primary advertising on a single hoarding which may identify a number of businesses or tenancies
occupying a single site. Where a site has two road frontages with arterial or collector roads it may be
appropriate to erect a free standing advertising hoarding facing each road.
8 Advertisements should only cover limited portions of the faces of a building, so that the character and
style of the building is not overwhelmed or obscured.
9 Freestanding advertisements should:
(a)
(b)
(c)
be limited in number to only one primary advertisement per site or building complex although
one secondary freestanding sign may be erected on sites with a major road frontage in excess
of 100 metres;
be of a scale and size which is compatible with and complementary to development on the site
and, in the locality and not exceed the height of such development; and
be consistent with the objectives for the relevant zone or area.
10 Moveable business signs should only be displayed when:
(a)
(b)
(c)
(d)
no other appropriate opportunity exists for an adequate co-ordinated and permanent
advertisement;
no obstruction or infringement of safety occurs to pedestrians or vehicle movement;
no unnecessary duplication or proliferation of information or advertisements results; and
there is accordance with all the following:
(i) no conflict with any relevant objectives or principles of development control;
(ii) co-ordination and uniformity with the theme and design of all other advertisements on the
subject site or buildings;
(iii) one such advertisement per site or per major road frontage;
(iv) no encroachment beyond the boundary alignment of the subject site or into car parking
areas;
(v) no damage to or need for removal of any landscaping on the site;
(vi) maximum of one square metre in advertisement area per face, and one metre in height;
(vii) only displayed during the hours the subject business is open for trading; and
(viii) the sign to be securely fixed in its intended location during display hours.
