You can rely on the MAAA to help
you handle tough issues. From
risk management to accidents or
incidents, event management and
liaising with your local community
and council on a range of issues
including urban encroachment and
noise, our leading experts can provide
advice and advocacy to support your
members.
In this article we’ve provided a
quick Q & A on some of the concerns
frequently raised by our members.
Don’t hesitate to contact us regarding
your concerns.
Club question:
We received written
notification fromour local council
regarding a noise complaint. The
council has asked that we submit a
development application addressing
things like traffic, parking, noise,
land use and zoning. We’ve been
aeromodelling at this site for 50 years
and haven’t had a problem like this
before. We do not know where to
start; how can the MAAA help us?
Response:
In this case the MAAA was
aware that the landowners supported
the club and wanted thematter
sorted out. If you find your club in a
similar situation, here is a list of a few
things you can send to the MAAA so
that we can provide the best advice,
and in some cases start to act on your
club’s behalf to resolve thematter.
▸
Correspondence from the
landowners indicating their
continued support for the use
of the land for aeromodelling
purposes (if that is the case).
▸
The formal correspondence
from the council about the noise
complaint, and then any further
correspondence in relation to
the request for a Development
Application.
