It further connects Sydney with the global economy and digital age.” CITY OF SYDNEY’S CREATIVE CITY DRAFT CULTURAL POLICY AND ACTION PLAN 2014 – 2024 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Outdoor Media Association (OMA) welcomes the opportunity to formally recognise the important and increasing role of electronic outdoor advertising in Sydney’s evolution as a modern and vibrant city. The City of Sydney has proposed a draft amendment to the Development Control Plan 2012 (DCP 2012). The draft DCP – Signs and Advertisements 2015 (draft DCP 2015) was placed on exhibition on 17 March 2015. The draft DCP 2015 is intended to provide guidance on the appropriate style and format of signs and advertisements within the City of Sydney, and in particular to respond to the increasing use of digital technology for signage. The OMA has undertaken a detailed review of the draft DCP 2015, and finds that the proposed development controls are, in part, inconsistent with higher planning instruments and policies, do not reflect best practice in terms of safety or visual amenity and do not adequately respond to emerging technology and industry aspirations, nor do they incorporate flexibility to respond as streetscapes and precincts change. Many of the provisions are overly complicated and outside the scope of a DCP, the purpose of which is to ‘provide guidance on development’ and ‘facilitate development’ 1. Sustainable Sydney 2030 aims to further enhance the City of Sydney as ‘globally competitive, innovative, vibrant, lively, engaging, cultural and creative’. This draft DCP could result in outdated and unchanging signage out of touch with Sydney’s status as a modern and vibrant city. Advertising plays a fundamental economic role in Australian society, with an overall spend of $11.6 billion in 2014. 2 Last year the Out-of-Home (OOH) industry raised revenue of $602 million, making up approximately 5.2% of advertising spend in Australia. 3 Digital advertising makes up 21% of total OOH advertising revenue and this will continue to grow.4 The industry employs almost 500 people in NSW. 5 In its current form the draft DCP will detract from the ability for local sign owners, landlords and businesses to maintain economically viable and sustainable business operations. By limiting the advertising spaces available, many integral community members will be affected including local businesses, tourism operators, art institutions and charities. 1 Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 (NSW). 2 Commercial Economic Advisory Service of Australia (CEASA) excluding classifieds and directories. 3 The OMA and its members have a longstanding collaborative working relationship with the City of Sydney. In light of this, the OMA seeks to work together to fine-tune the draft DCP 2015 prior to its adoption to ensure that it appropriately reflects the Council’s vision of a ‘globally competitive, innovative, vibrant, lively, engaging, cultural and creative’ Sydney. The OMA is confident that a mutually acceptable DCP can be achieved that will enable the OOH industry to achieve excellent amenity outcomes while facilitating a viable business environment where business can continue to thrive and enable Sydney’s evolution to a modern and vibrant city. Summary of recommended amendments to the draft DCP The OMA strongly believes that by making the following modifications to the draft DCP 2015, the OOH industry will remain confident in its role in contributing to Sydney’s economy, providing community service and enhancing, not detracting from, the visual amenity of Sydney’s streetscapes. If it would be of assistance to City of Sydney, the OMA will provide a marked up copy of the DCP identifying the recommended amendments. (See table on next page).

Media. We believe the industry can play a role in enhancing, not detracting from, the visual amenity of Sydney’s streetscapes. The OMA invites Council to work together with the industry to positively guide signage that reflects and enhances Sydney now and into the future. To achieve this aim, the OMA encourages the City of Sydney to modify the draft DCP 2015 to exemplify consistency, be simple, flexible and merit-based, evidence based, fair and positive. OMA PLANNING SUBMISSION – CITY OF SYDNEY’S DRAFT DCP 2015 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY (continued) 01. Delete Objective 9 ‘to restrict the establishment of third party advertising structures’ from the DCP. 02. Reinsert clause regarding street furniture, using the following text: “Commercial Advertising Signs on street furniture (other than on furniture provided by or for the City of Sydney) are not permissible unless undertaken in accordance with the Footways dining policy.” 03. Work with industry to establish more realistic, less onerous conversion and visual impact assessment guidelines in Clauses 3.16.7.2(2) and (3) and simplify assessment criteria outlined in Schedule 9.1 to reflect that these are existing approved structures. 04. Delete requirement for a blanket 30% size reduction when replacing, modifying or converting an electric structure. In its place provide positive guidance to encourage merit-based architectural integration. 05. Delete the requirement of a 45 second dwell time. Instead align the required dwell time for electronic advertising with the NSW draft Transport Corridor Advertising and Signage Guidelines which specify a dwell time of 10 seconds below 80km/h and 25 seconds for 80km/hr and over. 06. Simplify the luminance requirements by adopting those used in the NSW draft Transport Corridor Advertising and Signage Guidelines. Simplify the Guidelines for Light Impact Assessment report and delete the requirement for ongoing audit impact statements. 07. Align Clause 3.16.7.2(5) in relation to traffic and pedestrian safety with NSW draft Transport Corridor Advertising and Signage Guidelines particularly by modifying proposed crossfade transition from 0.5–1.0 second to 0.1 second. 08. Amend the clause requiring applicants to provide a blanket 15% of advertising space to City of Sydney to reflect the purpose of a DCP which is ‘to provide guidance on development’. A DCP cannot lawfully require a developer to make developer contributions to a Council. 09. Modify the language in section 3.16.12 to guide flexible, contextual and merit-based assessment of individual signs rather than forbid signage technology in individual precincts. 10. Align the DCP with SEPP 64 and other planning instruments. The proposed DCP’s inconsistencies could present a legal issue for CoS that may lead to future litigation and costs. 11. Modify the DCP to better balance economic outcomes with land use and cultural outcomes. 12. Modify the DCP to better align with the Council’s Creative City – draft Cultural Policy 2014–2024. 13. Align the DCP with the generally positive public perceptions of advertising. 14. Amend the DCP to better encourage a Sydney that is ‘Green, Global, Connected’. A city’s sense of ‘character’ is informed by a myriad of things – it may be the architecture, the quality of light, the sounds or even the colour. Some markers of ‘place’ operate on a more unconscious level – one of these is typography, and more specifically its most public form, signage. STEPHEN BANHAM CREATIVITY ON OUR STREETS CONTRIBUTES TO THE CHARACTER OF A CITY. OMA PLANNING SUBMISSION – CITY OF SYDNEY’S DRAFT DCP 2015 3 “Creativity in Sydney is visible … It is evident in the city’s street life, in expressions of creativity in the public domain (and its virtual equivalents), and in memorable precincts that offer a variety of large and small-scale activity, interaction and experiences.” CITY OF SYDNEY’S CREATIVE CITY DRAFT CULTURAL POLICY AND ACTION PLAN 2014 – 2024 INTRODUCTION TPG Town Planning and Urban Design (TPG) has been engaged by the Outdoor Media Association (OMA) to prepare a submission in response to the City of Sydney’s (CoS) Draft Sydney Development Control Plan (Signs and Advertisements) 2015 (draft DCP 2015), currently on exhibition. 1.1 About the OMA The OMA is the peak national industry body that represents most of Australia’s traditional and digital Out-of-Home (OOH) media display companies and production facilities, as well as some media display asset owners. Part of the role of the OMA is to develop constructive relationships with State and Local Governments and to contribute to the process of developing policies, laws and regulations for outdoor advertising that are both fair and equitable to governments, the community and the industry. On behalf of its members, the OMA advocates for planning systems across Australia that will deliver the following outcomes: — The recognition of Outdoor advertising signage as a legitimate land use. — The removal of the distinction between ‘on-premise’ and ‘third-party’ signage in planning policy and local laws. OMA members advertise ‘third-party’ products6 on billboards, freestanding advertising panels, public transport, taxis, pedestrian bridges and street furniture (including bus/tram shelters, public toilets, phone booths and street kiosks). OMA members also display advertisements in bus stations and train stations, at shopping centres, universities and airport precincts. The industry members build, clean7 and maintain the pedestrian bridges and street furniture, and provide other community infrastructure such as park benches, bins and bicycles. The OMA does not represent businesses that install ‘on-premise’ advertisements (vehicles, billboards and other structures that advertise the business, services and products on the advertiser’s property). On-premise advertising is more prolific than thirdparty advertising. The OMA is a strong advocate for ensuring the OOH advertising industry is aware of and responds appropriately to the social responsibilities associated with mass media in the public realm. The industry demonstrates its social responsibility through complete compliance with all findings of the Advertising Standards Bureau (ASB) as well as all State and Local Government controls relating to outdoor advertising. In contrast, companies that display on-premise advertising are often not aware of these various controls and regulations. — Provision of proactive, fair and reasonable development standards that are appropriate for signage land use. — Provision for the responsible display of Outdoor advertising signage within urban centres and along transport corridors. Digital technologies have now transformed what was once an advertising monologue into something more akin to a consumer dialogue. This has made the investment of a huge, fixed and static advertising medium less viable. STEPHEN BANHAM CREATIVITY ON OUR STREETS CONTRIBUTES TO THE CHARACTER OF A CITY. OMA PLANNING SUBMISSION – CITY OF SYDNEY’S DRAFT DCP 2015 6 Advertising in which the advertisement is not associated with the premises on which it is displayed. That is, a landowner allows an outdoor media display company to display an advertisement for a third-party product. 7 Cleaning includes the removal of graffiti. 5 “A culturally rich and vibrant city is inclusive in its scope and recognises and celebrates the creative imperative in all its diverse forms.” CITY OF SYDNEY’S CREATIVE CITY DRAFT CULTURAL POLICY AND ACTION PLAN 2014 – 2024 BACKGROUND After several months of consultation with the OMA, the City of Sydney (CoS) has made a draft amendment to the 2012 Development Control Plan (DCP 2012). The draft DCP – Signs and Advertisements 2015 (draft DCP 2015) was placed on exhibition on 17 March 2015. If approved by Council, the draft DCP 2015 will amend the DCP 2012. The OMA and its members work closely with the City of Sydney and contribute to a variety of public benefits within its Local Government Area (LGA). In particular, its members: — Donate free advertising space to the CoS and support its festivals such as Sydney Festival, Vivid Sydney, Good Food and Wine Festival and Open Air Cinemas. The key amendments addressed in this submission relate to 3.16.7 ‘Advertising structures & third party advertisements’ and, more specifically, 3.16.7.2 ‘Replacement, modification or conversion of an existing approved advertising structure to an electronic variable content advertising structure’8, and the revised and additional signage precincts in 3.16.12. 2.2 Council’s Objectives The City of Sydney’s objectives of the draft DCP 2015 were outlined as follows: — High quality public domain, streetscapes and buildings. — Reflect character of City’s precincts. — Provide a major income source for the CoS through the use of street furniture advertising. — Amenity and safety. — Contribute to the placement and upkeep of major public infrastructure. — Improvements to advertising structures. — Directly support a range of cultural events and institutions in Sydney, including: Sydney Opera House, Art Gallery of NSW, Museum of Contemporary Art and Sydney Biennale. — Support other charities and not-for-profit organisations, including: the Cancer Council NSW, Oxfam Australia, WWF Australia, the Guide Dog Association of NSW/ACT, and others. The OMA remains a strong advocate in supporting the ongoing and sustainable delivery of benefits to the wider community as described above. The OMA has strong community support. Refer to Appendix E: Letters of support for OMA Submission 2.1 Proposed Changes to the DCP The draft DCP 2015 includes: — Rewritten Section 3.16 Signage and Advertising. — Introduction of Schedule 9 Electronic Variable Content Advertising Structures. — Pedestrian experience of streets and places. — Opportunities for innovation and creativity.9 2.3 OMA’s Objectives The OMA welcomes amendment of City of Sydney’s policy framework and supports the establishment of planning controls that promote high quality signage and advertising, particularly in the context of new and emerging technologies. As an industry representative, the OMA seeks to ensure that the regulation of Outdoor signage and advertising appropriately results in outcomes that make a positive contribution to the urban landscape, the public realm and the experience of the audience. However, the OMA believes that allowing sufficient flexibility to promote creativity and innovation is essential to enabling and promoting design excellence. The OMA submits that the positive contributions of the industry invite a flexible and merit–based DCP. The OMA invites Council to work together with the industry to positively guide signage that reflects and enhances Sydney now and into the future. Current Sydney signage and outdoor advertising is viewed as high quality (42%) … Creates vibrancy in the city (40%), is creative (38%) and enhances the city’s character (37%). However, almost half (49%) feel that Sydney outdoor advertising needs modernising. CITY OF SYDNEY OUTDOOR COMMUNICATION REPORT – JULY 2014 8 An ‘electronic variable content advertising structure’ is defined in the glossary as a ‘large format advertising structure that has digital, LCD, LED, plasma or other electronic display area capable of displaying variable content’. This section refers to digital signs with the ability to automatically change from one static message to another at regular intervals. 9 Cleaning includes the removal of graffiti. OMA PLANNING SUBMISSION – CITY OF SYDNEY’S DRAFT DCP 2015 7 BACKGROUND (continued) 2.4 Impact of the Proposed DCP The OMA has undertaken a detailed review of the draft DCP 2015, and finds that the proposed development controls are inconsistent with higher planning instruments and policies such as the State Environment Planning Policy – Signs and Advertisements (SEPP 64) which encourages flexibility to ensure merit-based assessments, the Sydney Local Environmental Plan 2012 (SLEP 2012) regarding the zoning of ‘signage precincts’, and the City of Sydney Act (CoS Act) and Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 (NSW) (EPA Act) regarding development contributions. The controls also conflict with the NSW draft Transport Corridor Outdoor Advertising and Signage Guidelines regarding digital advertising, which were developed by Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) to protect the safety of drivers and pedestrians in NSW – a number of these road safety provisions are applied across Queensland, Victoria and Western Australia. Many of the provisions are overly complicated and outside the scope of a DCP, the purpose of which is to ‘provide guidance on development’ and ‘facilitate development’ 10. In addition, the controls will not achieve best practice in terms of visual amenity and do not adequately respond to emerging technology and industry aspirations, nor do they incorporate flexibility to respond as streetscapes and precincts change. Digital advertising makes up 21% of total OOH advertising revenue and this will continue to grow.13 In its current form the DCP will detract from the ability for sign owners, landlords and businesses to maintain economically viable and sustainable business operations. By limiting the advertising spaces available, many integral community members will be affected including local businesses, tourism operators and charities. The proposed DCP is predicated on a base assumption that electronic signs have are a more negative visual impact than static. In fact, digital signage can be more visually discrete than static signage as it adapts to ambient light levels. It is also more economically viable to make digital screens available for community messaging due to the incorporated changeability of the medium. In effect, one sign can take on the role of many in less space. Therefore the proposed DCP 2015 cannot be supported by the OMA in its current form. Sustainable Sydney 2030 aims to further enhance the City of Sydney as ‘globally competitive, innovative, vibrant, lively, engaging, cultural and creative’. This DCP could result in outdated and unchanging signage out of touch with Sydney’s status as a modern and vibrant city. The proposed guidelines will also hurt the OOH advertising economy. The multiple reports required in order to upgrade an existing static sign to electronic would cost somewhere in the vicinity of $50,000–$100,000 and are a disincentive to any upgrade of existing signage, and having no potential for new signs means the industry cannot grow. Advertising plays a fundamental economic role in Australian society, with an overall spend of $11.6 billion in 201411. Last year the OOH industry raised revenue of $602 million, making up approximately 5.2% of advertising spend in Australia.12 10 Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 (NSW).

The guidelines are inconsistent with higher local and NSW state planning policies and statewide road safety guidelines for billboards developed by the Roads and Maritime Services (RMS). They do not take into account the national context of the OOH industry. Nationally standardised billboard sizing (as defined in the OMA Digital Guidelines) enables advertisers to develop high quality, innovative creative that can be delivered broadly, which increases quality and potential for revenue. Consistency with higher planning policies and with NSW road safety guidelines would promote safety and reduce confusion and administrative burden. Refer to Appendix C: OMA Digital Advertising Guidelines Simple: The draft DCP 2015 is overly complicated. It is in the best interests of the Council, industry and businesses in Sydney to have a guideline that can be easily implemented and enforced. Flexible and Merit-Based: The development controls are overly prescriptive. Flexible and proactive design controls and merit-based criteria will promote creativity, innovation and design excellence. In place of prescriptive ‘no signage’ areas, the DCP could outline merit and performance-based design criteria that appropriately consider design, context compatibility, materiality and pedestrian experience. Fair: The draft DCP 2015 treats third party billboards in a different manner to all other forms of signs and advertisements in Sydney, yet recognises the impact of signage on amenity is cumulative. The OMA encourages that the DCP apply similar guidelines to all forms of advertising, and accordingly allow third party signage: — The potential for more signs, particularly as new areas may be absorbed by CoS, rather than blanket controls prohibiting new signage. — The same standards regarding dwell-time as are agreed to by the RMS. — An appropriate approach to visual assessment reporting that is less onerous and recognises the context of existing signs. Positive: This DCP treats third party signage as the primary contributor to visual clutter in the City of Sydney. The OMA would like to see the economic and societal contributions of the OOH industry acknowledged. Signage plays an important part in modern society, particularly in a global city, in assisting way-finding, contributing to place-making, and by being a defining feature of the urban landscape. Evidence-Based: The proposed DCP 2015 is based on a perception of signage as visual clutter and uses the precedence of a single electronic sign in City of Sydney, for which approval was gained through the Land and Environment Court (on Darlinghurst Road, Kings Cross). The OMA encourages the City of Sydney to employ guidelines that take into account best practice, state government agreed guidelines, and well researched principles. OMA PLANNING SUBMISSION – CITY OF SYDNEY’S DRAFT DCP 2015 10 ISSUES WITH THE DRAFT DCP 2015 This section identifies specific issues with the draft DCP 2015 that require further consideration by Council. Specific issues are discussed as follows: Issue 1 – The proposed development controls include as a key objective to restrict the establishment of new third party advertising structures. This is short-sighted, ignoring potential future changes to desired signage outcomes and to the boundaries of City of Sydney, will not achieve visual amenity and is unfair. Section 3.16 of the draft DCP 2015 proposes to insert the following new objective (9): “ to restrict the establishment of new third party advertising structures” No sound reasoning has been provided as to why this has been included as an objective of the draft DCP 2015. This blanket restriction sets an improper planning precedence of inflexibility. The SEPP 64 provides assessment criteria that encourage flexibility to ensure a proper merit based assessment (rather than blanket prohibitions). Under section 74BA of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 (NSW) (EPA Act), the purpose of a DCP is to facilitate development that is permissible under an environmental planning instrument such as the Sydney Local Environmental Plan 2012 (SLEP). The language and spirit of objective 9 in the draft DCP 2015 does not reflect that of a guideline and clearly does not facilitate development. The City’s Cultural Plan emphasises the council’s plan to ‘address any systemic or ‘red tape’ barriers that inhibit creative initiative’ and ‘orient its planning systems to anticipate future cultural need and plan for infrastructure’.14 This objective instead introduces red tape, and fails to anticipate future changes to the City of Sydney. The establishment of new third party advertising structures in the form of street furniture owned by the City will not be restricted under the draft DCP 2015 and in fact all reference to this type of advertisement has been deleted from the DCP (see Issue 2). In addition, a similar restriction does not apply to the establishment of new on-premise advertisements. Therefore the objective is inequitable in that it proposes to restrict one form of advertising structure only. If the objective is intended to protect visual amenity, there is no evidence to say that third party advertising is of any greater impact than on-premise advertising. 14 City of Sydney, Creative City – draft Cultural Policy and Action Plan 2014–2024, p25. OMA PLANNING SUBMISSION – CITY OF SYDNEY’S DRAFT DCP 2015 12 ISSUES WITH THE DRAFT DCP 2015 (continued) The City of Sydney aims to create a high quality public domain and reduce visual clutter reduce visual clutter by limiting new advertising structures. Contrary to the CoS’s position on this matter, the OMA firmly believes that limiting the development of third party advertisements does not tackle ‘visual clutter’. Parramatta Road is a good example, where, between Broadway and Leichhardt, there are over 2000 on–premise signs compared to 14 third-party advertisements. In place of this prohibitive stance on third party advertising, and seeking to impose blanket restrictions, the OMA believes it would be more effective for the City of Sydney to focus on its ‘enabling’ capabilities.15 By reinforcing proactive planning objectives, the City can work together with industry to achieve quality signage and advertising outcomes. The OMA suggests the DCP reinforces the following principles for all advertising signage: High quality design: signage that embodies clarity, simplicity and efficiency. Responsive to the location and context: signage that is appropriate to the setting, character and activity of a place, space or precinct. Appropriate scale: signage appropriately scaled to its context or the building on which it is located. Safety: signage that is sound of construction and does not create any unnecessary hazards or obstructions for motorists, pedestrians. Requested Outcome: • Delete Objective 9 from the Draft DCP 2015. • Establish performance-based criteria to guide positive signage outcomes. Associated Benefits: • Potential to introduce new third party signage where appropriate to enhance or enliven a precinct – allowing Sydney to be innovative and responsive to change. • Potential for the City to develop its own signage in the future. • The OOH industry can continue to grow, delivering community and economic benefits. Issue 2 – The draft DCP 2015 no longer includes clause 3.16.17(2) from the DCP 2012 regarding small format (street furniture) signage. Clause 3.16.17(2) has been deleted from the 2012 DCP “Commercial advertising signs on street furniture, other than on Council furniture, are not permissible unless undertaken in accordance with the Footways dining policy” Clause 4.3.2 of the previous Signage and Advertising Structures DCP 2005 stated “Commercial Advertising Signs on street furniture (other than on furniture provided by or for the City of Sydney) are not permissible. This does not apply to furniture associated with outdoor eating areas covered separately by the City of Sydney Outdoor Café Policy” While the City of Sydney aims to ensure appropriate visual amenity across its LGA, the draft DCP 2015 is silent on small format signage on street furniture, which primarily occurs within the public realm such as road reserves and public places. The OMA recognises that such signage is guided by SEPP 64. However small format signage within the public realm has a combined impact on the visual amenity of the public realm, particularly in conjunction with other third party and on-premise advertising. 15 City of Sydney, Creative City – draft Cultural Policy and Action Plan 2014–2024, p18. OMA PLANNING SUBMISSION – CITY OF SYDNEY’S DRAFT DCP 2015 13 ISSUES WITH THE DRAFT DCP 2015 (continued) The OOH industry provides and maintains over 7,000 items of public infrastructure in NSW, such as pedestrian bridges, bus shelters, kiosks, bins and public toilets. This infrastructure is valued at $90 million and provides a considerable saving for Local and State Governments, which would normally need to fund the provision of these assets. These assets also provide an income stream to State and Local Governments. The omission of the clause in respect of street furniture in the draft DCP 2015 has not been justified by the CoS. The OMA recommends the 2012 clause be reinserted but with the following amendment to ensure it accurately reflects that some street furniture infrastructure is owned by the provider but provided on behalf of council: “Commercial Advertising Signs on street furniture (other than on furniture provided by or for the City of Sydney) are not permissible unless undertaken in accordance with the Footways dining policy.” Signage has an impact on the visual quality of the wider urban context of the City of Sydney LGA. This impact is collective. It is unreasonable to omit any reference in the draft DCP to a particular type of advertising signage, notwithstanding the Council’s own contractual arrangements. Specific clauses are dealt with later in this document (Issue 4 and Issue 5); however, the OMA is concerned generally with these inclusions for the following reasons: — The assessment criteria relate not only to elements of signage that are proposed to be modified, but also to the existing infrastructure that is intended to remain after the conversion – the OMA does not accept as fair any provisions that prejudice existing infrastructure or current approvals nor impose excessive additional costs and administrative burdens on owners of third party signage. — These requirements entail duplication of prior assessment and approval of infrastructure, resulting in onerous, time consuming and costly approvals processes for applicants (estimated to be in the vicinity of $50,000–$100,000) as well as an administrative burden for the City of Sydney. This onerous process and excessive cost has potential to adversely impact on the quality of signage as it will be less commercially viable for billboard owners to modernise their signage. — The visual assessment requirements are not applied to onpremise advertising structures, which results in inequitable development control between third party signage and onpremise signage. This places an unfair burden on third party sign owners that is not justified by CoS. Requested Outcome: • Reinstate the following provision: “3.16.17(2) Commercial advertising signs on street furniture (other than on furniture provided by or for the City of Sydney) are not permissible unless undertaken in accordance with the Footways dining policy.” Associated Benefits: • Provide reference to all forms of signage and advertising within the City of Sydney in the DCP designed to guide Signs and Advertisements. Issue 3 – Replacing, modifying or converting an existing approved advertising structure to an electronic variable content advertising structure under the draft DCP 2015 requires duplication of visual impact assessment and approval processes for what is already approved signage infrastructure. Clause 3.16.7.2(3) and Section 9.1 of Schedule 9 (Electronic variable content advertising structures) relating to visual impact assessments propose a number of prescriptive controls which are not evidence-based. OMA PLANNING SUBMISSION – CITY OF SYDNEY’S DRAFT DCP 2015 Requested Outcome: • Work together with industry to establish realistic guidelines in place of Clause 3.16.7.2(3) – reflecting requested outcomes in Issue 4 and Issue 5. • Review and simplify assessment criteria outlined in Schedules 9.1 to reflect existing infrastructure. Associated Benefits: • Simplification and removal of duplicity in the planning and assessment system. • Allow for modern, vibrant, well-designed signage – paving the way for a green global connected Sydney. • Sydney’s old signs modernised in line with public opinion – Sydney as a world leader in signage. • Provide a more economical and efficient planning and assessment process that reduces administrative burden on both the City of Sydney and applicants. 14 ISSUES WITH THE DRAFT DCP 2015 (continued) Issue 4 – Imposing a blanket 30% reduction in signage size when replacing, modifying or converting an electronic advertising structure limits the ability to replace like for like in terms of scale and conflicts with national industry standards. The requirement to reduce the size of signage by 30% is arbitrary and conflicts with industry standards. The most common standard electronic billboard size is the ‘supersite’ at approximately 42m2 and is consistent with the standard static billboard size. If converting from static to electronic content a reduction of 30% would inhibit the ability for any standard ‘supersite’ signs to replace existing static signs. In addition, according to the draft DCP 2015, this same size reduction applies when replacing or modifying a sign that has previously been reduced in size by 30%. Considering the average lifespan for a digital sign is 5–10 years, this clause will lead to third party signage around the City reducing in size until it disappears. Furthermore, this provision fails to recognise the national reach of the advertising industry and the desire to achieve consistency between states and local government areas. Advertisers proposing a national rollout require consistent sizing to minimise barriers for producing high quality national campaigns. Signage exists within the city of Sydney which is larger than the maximum 45m2 proposed in this DCP. Some of this signage may be well suited to conversion to digital but according to the draft DCP its redevelopment would be precluded. The OMA recommends treating signs on there merit rather than applying this arbitrary maximum. The requirement for a 30% reduction in size is not evidencebased; it was explained to the OMA that this figure was intended as a benchmark only and that not every sign would necessitate this reduction. This is not clear in the language of the draft DCP 2015. In addition, the objective of this measure, architectural integration, will not be achieved. It is possible to achieve excellent architectural integration without a prescriptive sizereduction. Take for example the Young and Jackson building in Melbourne which is approximately 115m2 – the individual context is key and merit-based assessment will result in integrated, high quality signage throughout the City. Requested Outcome: The OMA requests that in place of the 30% reduction, the draft DCP 2015 recommends the appropriate consideration of the merit of each sign and nationally standardised billboard sizing (as defined in the attached OMA Digital Guidelines). Associated Benefits: Refer to Appendix C: OMA Digital Advertising Guidelines • Consider merit of each sign and nationally standardised billboard sizing (as defined in the OMA Digital Guidelines). • Reword Clause 3.16.7.2(3)(a) of the draft DCP 2015 to state ‘better integrates with the building or structure on which it is situated’. • Ensure consistent, high quality creative can be rolled out across Australia. • Promote remarkable and innovative architectural integration for Sydney’s signage. • Align the DCP with national industry standards. OMA PLANNING SUBMISSION – CITY OF SYDNEY’S DRAFT DCP 2015 16 “We may have more messages but we have fewer signs… Urban advertising is neater and more orderly now than ever before.” STEPHEN BANHAM DRAFT CULTURAL POLICY AND ACTION PLAN 2014 – 2024 ISSUES WITH THE DRAFT DCP 2015 (continued) Issue 5 – The proposed dwell time of 45 seconds for third party electronic advertising structures contradicts NSW draft Transport Corridor Outdoor Advertising and Signage Guidelines, which specify a dwell time of 10 or 25 seconds. Clause 3.16.7.2(3)(f) requires minimum dwell duration of 45 seconds. This is arbitrary and is not supported by evidence.16 Most state governments in Australia require dwell times of 10 seconds under 80km/h and 25 seconds for 80km/h and above (NSW, QLD and WA). In Victoria, dwell times range from full animation to a conservative benchmark of 30 seconds with merit-based assessment determining individual signs. The OMA worked closely with Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) to develop guidelines around digital signage in NSW. The Transport Corridor Outdoor Advertising and Signage Guidelines (the Guidelines) complement the provisions of SEPP 64, providing information regarding design criteria and road safety considerations for signage. In 2014, the Guidelines were amended to include provisions regarding digital advertising structures. The draft Guidelines have been applied in their draft form (in accordance with advice from NSW Planning Minister) to give approval for a number of signage applications in NSW and indication has been given to the OMA that they will be formally adopted in 2015. They are consistent with dwell times implemented in Queensland and Western Australia. Refer to Appendix A & B: Letter from Department of Planning and draft Transport Corridor Outdoor Advertising and Signage Guidelines. The Guidelines stipulate the following dwell times in New South Wales: — 10 seconds under 80km/h. — 25 seconds 80km/h and over. The proposed 45 seconds dwell time does not align with state guidelines and will cause conflicts and administrative burden in the assessment and approval process. This will also add barriers to potential for uniformity in national advertising campaigns. In addition, these dwell times are at odds with those applied to on-premise advertising. On-premise advertising, while smaller in scale, is more prolific in number and is generally at eye level. The draft DCP proposes full animation or a 10 second dwell time for on-premise advertising compared to 45 seconds for third party. If the City considers these dwell times comply with its desired visual amenity for one form of advertising, the OMA requests they be consistently applied. Requested Outcome: • Amend Section 3.16.7.2(3)(f) to reflect the dwell times recommended by the Guidelines as follows: • 10 seconds under 80km/hr. • 25 seconds over 80km/hr. Associated Benefits: • Simplify planning controls and align with well-researched safety provisions designed by the NSW road safety authority. • Achieve clear consistent, state-wide guidelines that are easy to understand and comply with. Issue 6 – Illumination requirements outlined in 3.16.7.2(4) and the light impact assessment 9.2 are overly complex and conflict with NSW draft Transport Corridor Outdoor Advertising and Signage Guidelines. Note: Section 3.16.7.2(3) of the draft DCP 2015 makes reference to 3.16.7.3(4). This should refer to 3.16.7.2(4), which should be corrected in the Draft DCP 2015. This section makes reference to Clause 9.1 where it should refer to Clause 9.2. The OMA believes that luminance requirements are overly complicated and prescriptive. They reference, but do not respond to, the potential for technology to automatically respond and adjust to changing lighting levels throughout the day and night. Static billboards and other signage do not have such rigid lighting requirements and do not appear to have caused any unacceptable visual impact. The luminance levels are detailed in Table 3.9, which is highly complicated, meaning it will be difficult to implement and enforce. It is also at odds with the luminance standards outlined in NSW draft Transport Corridor Outdoor Advertising and Signage Guidelines. The following luminance standards were adopted by the RMS as they are accepted as best practice, and are relatively simple to implement and monitor. The OMA advocates that dwell times be amended to reflect the above mentioned Guidelines. 16 T he New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) has established a dwell time of eight seconds as the appropriate minimum static time due for the electronic medium. The NYSDOT studied accident records and found no change in crash patterns near digital billboards, although, of course, recommended continued monitoring. Its conclusion was: “Limited data suggests that there is no change in the crash patterns in the vicinity of the off-premise CEVMS billboards.” OMA PLANNING SUBMISSION – CITY OF SYDNEY’S DRAFT DCP 2015 18 ISSUES WITH THE DRAFT DCP 2015 (continued) The OMA recommends that Table 3.9 of the draft DCP 2015 be replaced with the following luminance standards which form part of the above mentioned RMS Guidelines: TABLE 3: Luminance Levels for Digital Advertisements Luminance Levels Luminance means the objective brightness of a surface as measured by a photometer, expressed in candelas per square metre (cd/m2). Levels differ as digital signs will appear brighter when light levels in the area are low. Luminance levels should comply with Australian Standard AS4282 Control of the Obtrusive Effects of Outdoor Lighting which recommends the following levels: conditions in any consent requiring the signage meet certain standards. If there is a complaint, Council can investigate that complaint and enforce the conditions of approval. The OMA also proposes a simplified Section 9.2 ‘Guidelines for Light Impact Assessment Report’ as some of the modelling requirements are prohibitively expensive and well beyond those of the Australian Standards (AS 4282–1997) without adequate justification. By deleting the text after “Lighting compliance calculations shall be carried out with the following criteria:”, Council will still achieve its desired outcome in terms of lighting, while also lowering the cost of development and relieving administrative burden on the City of Sydney. This will allow time and capital to be focused on design innovation. LIGHTING CONDITION ZONE 1 ZONES 2/3 ZONE 4 Full Sun on face of Signage No limit Maximum Output Maximum Output Day Time Luminance 6000 cd/m2 6000 cd/m2 • Correct reference errors in Section 3.16.7.2(3). Morning and Evening Twilight and Inclement Weather 700 cd/m 500 cd/m • Adopt the OMA’s changes to Section 3.16.7.2(4)(f) regarding change to the requirement for a light impact audit to every three years. Night Time *350 cd/m2 2 Requested Outcome: • Replace proposed luminance provisions with RMS standards provided. 2 • Adopt the OMA’s changes to Section 9.2 Guidelines for Light Impact Assessment report. Zone 1 covers areas with generally very high off-street ambient lighting, e.g. display centres similar to Kings Cross, central city locations. • Modify 3.16.4(2) from a maximum of 300 to 350 cd/m2. Zone 2 covers areas with generally high off-street ambient lighting e.g. some major shopping/commercial centres with a significant number of off-street illuminated advertising devices and lights.* Associated Benefits: Zone 3 covers areas with generally medium off-street ambient lighting e.g. small to medium shopping/commercial centres. Zone 4 covers areas with generally low levels of off-street ambient lighting e.g. most rural areas, many residential areas. Adopting the above standards for luminance will eliminate potential for conflicting development controls across relevant approval authorities such as the RMS, which will establish a more consistent approach to development control in the City of Sydney area. To be consistent with these guidelines, 3.16.4(2) would reflect “maximum night time luminance of any sign is not to exceed 350 cd/m2”. • Streamline the DCP with RMS approved standards to reduce confusion and administrative burden resulting from conflicting standards. • Establish consistent development controls that are easy to understand and comply with. • Allow time and capital to be focused on design innovation. • Address ‘red tape’ barriers that inhibit creative initiative in line with the City’s Cultural Plan. The requirement for an annual light impact audit is costly, onerous and unnecessary considering the industry’s demonstrated responsiveness to complaints17; the requirement for ongoing audit impact statements be deleted as these are costly and an ongoing administrative burden for both the proponent and Council. Council is better to include approval 17 A PN Outdoor reduced the luminance levels of the Darlinghurst Road sign of its own accord to respond to a single complaint about the sign’s brightness. The industry is highly responsive to public sentiment. OMA PLANNING SUBMISSION – CITY OF SYDNEY’S DRAFT DCP 2015 19 ISSUES WITH THE DRAFT DCP 2015 (continued) Issue 7 – Clause 3.16.7.2(5) relates to road safety but contradicts the NSW draft Transport Corridor Outdoor Advertising and Signage Guidelines. The DCP will best support road safety by reflecting those provisions developed by the authority on road safety in NSW, the RMS. The OMA is particularly concerned with clause 3.16.7.2(5)(d) which requires a crossfade transition between advertisements of 0.5 – 1.0 second. This provision has not been justified and is not evidence-based; in fact it could present a traffic hazard. The NSW draft Transport Corridor Outdoor Advertising and Signage Guidelines recommend 0.1 second. The Land and Environment Court case on Darlinghurst Road required the same. Unless there is some clear evidence to back this crossfade requirement, the OMA considers that it would be safer to adopt 0.1 second. The OMA is committed to driver safety and commissioned research into driver behaviour in the presence of digital and static signage. This study found that there were no significant differences in viewing behaviour and driver performance between digital and static signage. Refer to Appendix D: OMA’s Driver Behaviour Research The OMA submits that clause 3.16.7.2(5)(b) which requires a distance of at least 400m between advertising structures with an electronic display is not aligned with the RMS Guideline which requires a distance of 150m. In addition, the OMA is concerned that clause 3.16.7.2(5)(g) and (i), prohibiting public safety instructions and interactive devices, will restrict the potential for future innovation using technology. In the US digital billboards are used by the FBI to find missing persons, apprehend criminals and provide emergency warnings. In Australia billboards have been used during National Missing Persons Week. Requested Outcome: • Review clause 3.16.7.2(5)(d) relating to crossfade and amend to maximum of 0.1 second. • Adapt clause 3.16.7.2(5)(b) to require a distance of 150m between advertising in line with RMS Guideline. • Review clause 3.16.7.2(5)(i) to allow flexibility for potential future uses of advertising structures. Associated Benefits: • Ensure safety of road users and pedestrians in the City. • Ensure appropriate visual amenity during transition. • Facilitate future use of digital billboards to serve the community. Issue 8 – Section 3.16.7.2(9) requires the applicant to make 15% of content space available to the CoS free of cost for the display of community messages and the like. This is unlawful. The 15% public benefit requirement proposed in the Draft DCP is unlawful because it constitutes a form of development contribution to be made solely to the Council and that contribution is not included in any of the City of Sydney’s (CoS) section 94 contributions plans. Further, it is not authorised under section 61 of the City of Sydney Act (CoS Act). There is no provision in either the CoS Act or the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 (NSW)(EPA Act) that suggests CoS is authorised to obtain development contributions through a DCP. This clause would restrict the potential for these community services to be explored and expanded in the future. The OMA considers that as long as structures able to send out push notifications comply with privacy regulations and ensure the public is able to ‘opt in’, they could potentially be used to great effect in the future, in line with SMS emergency alert technology employed by governments internationally and in Australia. Refer to Appendix E: Letters of Support for the OMA’s Submission OMA PLANNING SUBMISSION – CITY OF SYDNEY’S DRAFT DCP 2015 20 ISSUES WITH THE DRAFT DCP 2015 (continued) The EPA Act makes clear that the purpose of a DCP is to provide guidance on development and to facilitate development. A DCP cannot lawfully be used to require a developer to make developer contributions to a Council. Further, there is a strict regime in the EPA Act for the preparation and content of section 94 contribution plans. The Draft DCP does not meet these criteria. The OMA is supportive of the OOH providing advertising space free of cost for community use and public benefit. However, it is important for the City of Sydney and the DCP to recognise the current community benefits facilitated by the OOH industry, which includes: — Donation of around $22 million in 2014 in free advertising space for charities and not-for-profit organisations, a large proportion of which is in NSW (representing up to 5% of OMA members’ advertising space – this equates to more than 15% of the time of a digital sign). Invariably, donations from the Outdoor advertising industry enable these organisations to continue their service to the community – by increasing community awareness of their services, recruiting volunteers and soliciting donations from the public. These outcomes would otherwise be difficult to achieve on those organisations’ limited marketing budgets. — Provision and maintenance of infrastructure including bus stops and public seating, which also provides a major income source. — Directly supporting a range of cultural events and institutions in Sydney, including The Sydney Opera House, The Art Gallery of NSW, The Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney Biennale and the Sydney Festival. — Delivering energy efficient infrastructure to reduce energy use and support environmental sustainability. Refer to Appendix E: Letters of Support for the OMA’s Submission The OMA is supportive of a system that delivers direct benefits to the community and recognises the City of Sydney’s considerable efforts and contributions in promoting and representing community initiatives. However, the OMA is concerned that 15% for the City alone could impact the existing contributions and services that the OOH industry provides to charitable organisations and initiatives. OMA PLANNING SUBMISSION – CITY OF SYDNEY’S DRAFT DCP 2015 Requested Outcome: • Modify this provision to allow sufficient flexibility for public benefit contributions directed towards charitable purposes and initiatives chosen by the applicant. Associated Benefits: • Allow OOH to keep giving $22 million to charities and not for profits. • Ensure charities relying on the OOH industry as a benefactor, continue to maintain appropriate access to content space and other benefits. Issue 9 – the DCP includes blanket controls preventing conversion to electronic signage within certain precincts, without taking into account the fact that such signage can be contextually appropriate and can be designed to integrate appropriately. Section 3.16.12 of the Draft DCP is overly prescriptive and prohibits conversion to electronic signage in a number of precincts including: Millers Point, Circular Quay, Bridge Street, Wynyard, Town Hall, Martin Place, Macquarie Street and College Street East. The OMA does not support the introduction of blanket prohibitive controls with regard to electronic signage for the following reasons: — The underlying rationale for the identification of each precinct is not justified within the DCP. It would be more appropriate to promote criteria that respond to a desired precinct character. — Many areas classed as ‘no conversion to electronic’ are dynamic, high exposure areas that should be suitable for such signage to be located. — Many of the identified areas are within high frequency public transport areas, which often rely on electronic signage to provide updates on departure and arrival times to multiple destinations. 21 ISSUES WITH THE DRAFT DCP 2015 (continued) The edited signage precincts do not align with the vision residents and visitors share for different areas. In fact, the ‘Perceptions Research’ conducted by CoS found that people suggested the following areas as appropriate for more electronic signage: Town Hall Precinct, Broadway, Railway Square and Darling Harbour. In addition, the map developed by the City leaves open for interpretation any signage that exists along a precinct’s border. The desired outcomes noted in the City’s cultural policy: Creativity to be more frequent and visible in the city’s public domain and its precincts through a critical mass of activity – large and small scale, temporary and permanent. Initiatives should amplify and explore the unique characteristics and histories of each village and reinvigorate urban spaces and infrastructure with creative imagination’.18 This will be better achieved through flexible, merit-based guidelines. Refer Deloitte Access Economics – Public Benefits Snapshot “Large digital screens are seen to belong in places where people can mingle, get sufficient distance from the imagery and where they do not impose on the built environment.” CITY OF SYDNEY OUTDOOR COMMUNICATION REPORT – JULY 2014 18 DELOITTE ACCESS ECONOMICS – PUBLIC BENEFITS SNAPSHOT In 2011, Deloitte Access Economics undertook a study titled, The economic contribution of the outdoor media industry – 2011 update on behalf of the OMA. The study sought to measure the direct contribution to economic activity of the outdoor media industry in 2010. Sponsorships The study confirms and quantifies some of key public benefits facilitated by the OOH industry through sponsorships, funding infrastructure and environmental programs. Deloitte advised that in 2010 the outdoor media industry contributed a total of $13.25 million in charitable activities across Australia and $5.31 million of this was in NSW. $12.73 million is provided in free advertising space across Australia and $5.26 million of this was in NSW. Funding infrastructure The OOH industry also makes a large infrastructure contribution by providing bus shelters, public seating and rubbish bins, which directly assists local and state governments in maintenance and overall sustainability of such infrastructure. In 2010 a total of 17,690 infrastructure items were provided across Australia with 7,080 of those in NSW. Deloitte advises that the total replacement cost of infrastructure provided by the OOH industry in NSW is in the order of $89.45 million. Operating expenditure during 2010 was $56.08 million in New South Wales alone. Environmental Deloitte also notes that the OOH industry is committed to delivering on environmental benefits to the community. 2010 survey results indicated that participants employed a range of environmental initiatives in to ensure sustainable operation and delivery of signage infrastructure. In particular, respondents noted the initiative to convert signage to more energy efficient LED lighting for advertising panels and posters to reduce energy consumption. City of Sydney, Creative City – draft Cultural Policy and Action Plan 2014–2024, p41. OMA PLANNING SUBMISSION – CITY OF SYDNEY’S DRAFT DCP 2015 22 ISSUES WITH THE DRAFT DCP 2015 (continued) The City of Sydney has acknowledged that electronic advertising structures with digital screens are widely embraced by the Outdoor advertising industry internationally. CoS acknowledged that: It is understood that the City of Sydney’s key rationale for limiting or prohibiting electronic signage is to ensure appropriate visual amenity in identified precincts. The Design Advisory Panel made the following comment: • The City of Chicago have established its own networks of digital electronic advertising structures on public land as a means of generating revenue. “Given that signage and in particular the new digital formats of signage, can dramatically alter the way in which people experience the city, tight controls need to be in place to provide the framework for how and where these occur.” • The City of Philadelphia promotes electronic advertising structures with digital screens on private land in derelict urban areas as an incentive to redevelop old building stock, generate economic activity and deliver public domain improvements. And further: The Panel recommended that in the review of the signage controls, there should be some overarching principles that articulate the City’s broader design intent. This could include the potential positive and negative impacts. The OMA encourages CoS to look to these international examples where local government has tapped into the positive potential for public domain improvements. These could be reflected in the DCP. OMA PLANNING SUBMISSION – CITY OF SYDNEY’S DRAFT DCP 2015 23 ISSUES WITH THE DRAFT DCP 2015 (continued) The OMA considers that rather than interpreting the above comments from the Design Advisory Panel as a need for blanket prohibitive controls, they be used to guide key performance criteria to address matters such as: — Compatibility with streetscape or public realm character. — Integration with buildings and structural elements. — Compatibility with scale, location and viewpoints. — Safety and minimisation of hazards. These performance criteria will be best achieved through meritbased assessments. This will allow for world-class signage. Requested Outcome: • Replace prohibitive controls within the identified precincts with merit-based criteria. Associated Benefits: • Adopting progressive merit based planning practices will assist in delivering the following outcomes. • Encourage industry to work with Council to deliver creative and innovative signage that reflects and enhances local context and character. • Enable the OOH industry and Sydney to embrace new technologies. • Potential to reduce visual clutter as one dynamic content sign can perform the role of multiple static installations. • Enhance the vibrancy and global profile of Sydney as an international tourist hub. Issue 10 – the draft DCP is inconsistent with other planning instruments. This presents a legal issue for City of Sydney and may lead to future litigation and costs for the City. The DCP is inconsistent with other planning instruments which presents a legal issue for CoS and it may lead to future litigation and costs for CoS and industry through the Land and Environment Court. — SEPP 64 provides assessment criteria that encourages flexibility to ensure a proper merit based assessment (rather than blanket prohibitions). — Section 74C(5) of the EPA Act provides that a DCP has no effect to the extent that it is inconsistent or incompatible with a provision of an applicable environmental planning instrument, such as the Sydney Local Environmental Plan 2012 (SLEP). — The Draft DCP’s proposed prohibition on electronic signage in Circular Quay, Martin Place, Town Hall, Wynyard, Macquarie Street and College Street East (Precincts) is inconsistent with the zoning of those Precincts under the SLEP for the principal reason that under the SLEP, signage is permitted with consent. — Specifically, all of the Precincts, with the exception of Martin Place, are zoned B8 Metropolitan Centre. Martin Place is zoned RE1 Public Recreation. Based on the land use tables of the B8 and RE1 zones of the SLEP, signage, of which advertising structures is a sub-category, is permissible with consent. — The Draft DCP, which seeks to prohibit advertising structures, cannot be of any effect in the B8 or RE1 zones given that it is inconsistent with the SLEP which permits advertising structures in the zones. The contents of the DCP should be modified to align with these state planning instruments. It is not in the best interests of any of the parties involved to have to challenge the principles of the DCP in the Land and Environment Court. The industry believes such challenges can be avoided, and significant time and resources saved, if the DCP is modified in line with these recommendations. Requested Outcome: • Modify the proposed DCP to achieve alignment with SEPP 64 and SPEP 2012 to remove identified conflicts. Associated Benefits: • Reduce potential for legal issues and litigation from planning and assessment processes resulting from inconsistencies between relevant planning instruments. OMA PLANNING SUBMISSION – CITY OF SYDNEY’S DRAFT DCP 2015 24 ISSUES WITH THE DRAFT DCP 2015 (continued) Issue 11 – the draft DCP does not take into account the economic impacts of limiting signage in City of Sydney Creative and digital industries are one of the seven key sectors identified by the Deloitte Access Economics Report, The City of Sydney Economy in 2030: a foresighting study. By further limiting the development of third party signage in the DCP, City of Sydney is acting contrary to its own Economic Development Strategy which states, ‘The City of Sydney is charged with a responsibility to engage in long-term strategic planning on behalf of the local community, workers, visitors and businesses who occupy the city each day and in doing so, address economic, social, environmental, cultural, civic leadership and land use issues in an integrated manner.’ The Strategy notes the importance for CoS to both reduce regulatory barriers to make it easier and more efficient to do business and also leading by example to ensure that the City takes a leadership position in economic development initiatives through its own operations. Both of these requirements are not adhered to in the draft DCP. The current draft DCP would not only impact the industry but also have an additional impact on local businesses who utilise Outdoor advertising to promote their business. Currently over 40% of outdoor advertising displayed by OMA members is utilised by retail, tourism and events, all of which are identified by the City in the Economic Development Strategy as being key to economic growth. Further the OOH industry in NSW employs nearly 500 FTE staff and indirectly employs many more including, tradespeople, installers and printers.19 The City of Sydney includes the following recognition of the importance of advertising: Appropriately designed and located on-premise signage can be an important factor for economic performance of businesses. Research undertaken by the University of Cincinnati in 2012 reported that signage plays an important role in the overall branding and marketing strategy of a business, observing that additional and improved business signage is associated with increased revenues and profits. The research also found that on-premise signage indirectly influences the vitality of the local community and the quality of life of consumers by providing information about the availability of goods and services. The research recommends that signage regulations look beyond the physical design and take into account the impact of signage on business success, including economic flow-on for the local community. 19 This applies equally to third party advertisements which significantly contribute to the City’s retail, tourism and events sectors. Third party signage also provides information about the availability of goods and services, and provides strong economic flow-on for the local community. Requested Outcome: • A reviewed DCP which balances economic outcomes with land use and cultural outcomes. • Include additional purpose 1(f) “Ensure the City’s planning controls reflect the City’s cultural, sustainability and economic policies and guidelines.” Associated Benefits: • Reduce regulatory barriers to promote greater efficiency in operations for businesses. • Promote more viable and sustainable business operations within the City of Sydney. “The City of Sydney Outdoor Communication Report – July 2014 identified that Digital and Animated Signage was most appropriate to be located in Retail Precincts, Tourists Precincts, Nightspots and the Central CBD.” I n 2015, NSW employs 477 FTE based on data from Adshel, APN Outdoor, JCDecaux and oOh! Media. OMA PLANNING SUBMISSION – CITY OF SYDNEY’S DRAFT DCP 2015 25 ISSUES WITH THE DRAFT DCP 2015 (continued) Issue 12 – the draft DCP is misaligned with the Council’s Cultural Policy OOH contributes to the culture and vibrancy of Sydney. One of the four objectives of Sustainable Sydney 2030 for a cultural and creative city is ‘support the development of creative industries’. OOH is one such industry. Advertising is part of culture, in that it ‘reflects, reinforces and shapes our identity’. One of the foundation principles of the City of Sydney’s Creative City – draft Cultural Policy and Action Plan 2014–2024 is: 4.9 A culturally rich and vibrant city is inclusive in its scope and recognises and celebrates the creative imperative in all its diverse forms. Creative imagination is not only central to the work of the cultural sector, but can also be evident in business”. 20 Creative imagination is a prominent part of OOH media – the industry is committed to producing high quality, innovative and aesthetically appealing signage. The OMA is hopeful that City of Sydney will recognise and celebrate the OOH industry’s potential to contribute to the vibrancy and culture of the city. The City of Sydney recognises that it ‘has a special leadership role’. The ubiquitous interweaving of culture and creativity in the fabric of every aspect of life also means it is sensitive to government regulations and policy in all areas’21. Flexibility is required within regulations and policies such as development control plans, including the draft DCP so as to support cultural creativity. Requested Outcome: • Align the draft DCP 2015 with the City’s Cultural Policy by recognising the creative imperative of OOH and allowing flexibility for creativity. Associated Benefits: • Enhance the vibrancy and global profile of Sydney as a creative, innovative and cultural City. Issue 13 – the DCP does not align with public perception In 2014, the City of Sydney undertook ‘Perceptions Research’, surveying Sydney residents, commuters and tourists. This research is referenced as having “shaped the context for the signage review and development standards contained in the DCP.” However, the OMA contends that the findings of the research do not align with the provisions of the draft DCP 2015. According this research 46% of people consider that standard billboards “fit anywhere in Sydney”22. The survey also touched on Sydney’s place a global, modern city. The survey findings indicated that: — Just under 1 in 5 feel that Sydney’s current signage and outdoor advertising contributes to the modern feel of the city23. — Almost half (49%)24, feel that Sydney outdoor advertising needs modernising. When asked about digital signage, participants gave the following responses: “Really modern” “It’ll get people off their mobile phones.” “Would make the city look alive.” “The New York ones are stunning.” “Those ones in Times Square were so clever.” “Better than going past the same poster all the time. At least it’s changing all the time.” And while 54% considered the digital signage ‘should only fit in specific locations in Sydney’, this was primarily due to concern about driver safety, which may be due to a misconception that the screens would display full animation. Driver safety is a key concern for the OOH industry which is why it has worked with RMS to research and produce guidelines around digital advertising. The OMA has also undertaken driver behaviour research which found that there were no significant differences in viewing behaviour and driver performance between digital and static signage. Refer to Appendix D: The OMA’s Driver Behaviour Research 20 22 21 City of Sydney, Creative City – draft Cultural Policy and Action Plan 2014–2024, p18. City of Sydney, Creative City – draft Cultural Policy and Action Plan 2014–2024, p18. City of Sydney Outdoor Communication Report – July 2014.

OMA PLANNING SUBMISSION – CITY OF SYDNEY’S DRAFT DCP 2015 26 ISSUES WITH THE DRAFT DCP 2015 (continued) OMA’s members contribute to Sydney’s status as a vibrant and energetic modern city. In this regard, people expect to see advertising and “part of that expectation is the use of modern exciting signage and advertising that complements the feel of the city and adds to its energy”. Part of the character of Sydney is its public domain, certain types of Outdoor sign and advertising technology can potentially complement the city’s character. In 2011, Nielsen conducted a survey on public sentiment regarding OOH, with respondents demonstrating equally positive attitude towards signage. a Community Workshop Event. Despite the numerous methods of communication available to the public to register objections to the proposed conversion, no negative submissions were made to either oOh! Media or the City of Sydney in relation to the development application. In fact, feedback was positive and recognised the benefits digital signage could provide the community. Refer to Appendix H: oOh! Media Community consultation In light of these findings, the OMA requests that the City take note of the positive public sentiment towards OOH and the fact that people want to see modern signage in Sydney. Refer to Appendix G: Nielsen Independent Study Results PUBLIC PERCEPTION OF ADVERTISING – 2011 SNAPSHOT — In response to a survey undertaken by Nielsen in 2011, 90% of respondents were unaware that the Outdoor industry provides free or discounted outdoor advertising for charities and local community groups. — 57% of respondents said that they felt more positive about the use of outdoor advertising in local areas when told that the industry provides discounted or free advertising space. — 80% said ‘no’ – they did not know that the outdoor media industry subsidises the building and maintenance of local community infrastructure. — 57% of respondents stated that they felt more positive about the use of outdoor advertising in local areas when told that the outdoor industry subsidises the building and ongoing maintenance of local community infrastructure that contains outdoor advertising. — When asked whether the role of outdoor advertising is positive or negative, 44% were positive about the role of outdoor advertising and 44% were neutral. Requested Outcome: • Align the draft DCP 2015 with positive public perception of OOH and the desire for modernised signage. Associated Benefits: • Align with public appetite for good quality, attractive,modern signage. Issue 14 – the DCP does not encourage a “Green, Global, Connected” Sydney Sustainable Sydney 2030 aims to further enhance the City of Sydney as ‘globally competitive, innovative, vibrant, lively, engaging, cultural and creative’. Green The technology of Outdoor advertising is constantly evolving, bringing with it new opportunities for better achieving public interest and industry objectives. Static digital message displays can be more environmentally friendly, avoid occupational health and safety issues associated with changing screens and help disseminate emergency or community information. The industry is committed to working to achieve excellent environmental outcomes. By making the cost and process of converting to digital signage excessive, the City lessens the likelihood that signage will be converted and with it the associated benefits of less traditional vinyl. In 2014, oOh! Media conducted a large-scale community consultation regarding the proposed digital conversion of an existing sign on Oxford Street, Darlinghurst. As part of that consultation process, oOh! Media distributed over 850 newsletters within the project notification area, established a dedicated project website, email address and free call number, and organised both a Stakeholder Roundtable and OMA PLANNING SUBMISSION – CITY OF SYDNEY’S DRAFT DCP 2015 27 ISSUES WITH THE DRAFT DCP 2015 (continued) “...the purchase of a Nylex Sign tea towel isn’t so much about liking that specific sign but about making a proud link between our identity and the cultural memory of an entire city. This relationship is universal and could be said of the Coca Cola sign in Sydney’s Kings Cross or the XXXX Sign in Brisbane. This essential human need for a sense of a ‘real’ geographic location offers an important counter to the ‘placelessness’ of the online world.” STEPHEN BANHAM CREATIVITY ON OUR STREETS CONTRIBUTES TO THE CHARACTER OF A CITY. Global Digital advertising is part of the makeup of a contemporary global city. City of Sydney’s research found that 67% of people ‘expect any large city to promote the use of new technology in advertising’. 25 Technology allows for signage that is vibrant, has high image quality and is visually interesting, and the industry is keen to modernise and explore this new technology. To do this, flexibility is required. Similar Local Governments around New South Wales, such as North Sydney and Parramatta have less restrictive advertising controls than those proposed in the DCP; Cities such as Melbourne and Brisbane are also more progressive. Comparatively, Sydney City is falling behind. As noted by the City of Sydney: “New technology provides opportunities for interesting and interactive forms of communication that can create an ‘experience’ for those using public spaces. It further connects Sydney with the global economy and digital age.”26 Connected A city’s sense of ‘character’ is informed by a myriad of things – it may be the architecture, the quality of light, the sounds or even the colour. Some markers of ‘place’ operate on a more unconscious level – one of these is typography, and more specifically its most public form, signage. 27 While the DCP contends that signage detracts from amenity and constitutes ‘visual clutter’, it provides no evidence to back this claim. The Coca Cola sign in Kings Cross is iconic; it reflects ‘the cultural memory of an entire city’. The same can be said of the XXXX sign in Brisbane and the Nylex sign in Melbourne. Our relationships with these signs reflect “essential human need for a sense of a ‘real’ geographic location (as it) offers an important counter to the ‘placelessness’ of the online world”. 28 Signage is one of the things that invites pedestrians to look up from their handheld device and interact with the city around them. In comparison to other cities around Australia and the world, Sydney’s haphazard street networks are a unique part of its charm and excitement, but at times can present way finding challenges. Third party signage complements the City of Sydney’s directional way-finding signage systems to assist people in navigating intuitively, confidently and enjoyably through its streets and public places. If adopted in its current form, the OMA believes that the draft DCP 2015 will hinder the City’s ability to achieve this strategic direction by imposing overly prescriptive controls. Requested Outcome: • Better align with the City’s objective of being ‘Green, Global, Connected’. Associated Benefits: • Allow signage to enhance the City of Sydney. 25 City of Sydney, Public Perceptions Research, 2014. 28 Stephen Banham – Creativity on our streets contributes to the character of a city. 26 Item 3.

OMA PLANNING SUBMISSION – CITY OF SYDNEY’S DRAFT DCP 2015 28 HEADING STYLE “The city is open to transformation and big ideas. It harnesses the potential of new technologies.” CITY OF SYDNEY’S CREATIVE CITY DRAFT CULTURAL POLICY AND ACTION PLAN 2014 – 2024 CONCLUSION Given the OMA’s collaborative working relationship with CoS, the OMA seeks to work together to fine-tune the draft DCP 2015 prior to its adoption to ensure that it appropriately reflects the Council’s vision of a ‘globally competitive, innovative, vibrant, lively, engaging, cultural and creative’ Sydney. 3. Work with industry to establish more realistic, less onerous visual impact assessment guidelines in Clause 3.16.7.2(3) and simplify assessment criteria outlined in Schedule 9.1 to reflect that these are existing structures being modified. The OMA is confident that a mutually acceptable DCP can be achieved that will also enable the OOH industry to achieve excellent outcomes while facilitating a viable business environment where business can continue to thrive. The OMA strongly believes that by making the following recommended changes, the OOH industry will remain confident in its role in enhancing, not detracting from, the visual amenity of Sydney’s streetscapes. — Simplification and removal of duplicity in the planning and assessment system. This will result in the following benefits: — Allow for modern, vibrant, well-designed signage – paving the way for a green global connected Sydney. — Sydney’s old signs modernised in line with public opinion – Sydney as a world leader in signage. — Provide a more economical and efficient planning and assessment process that reduces administrative burden on both the City of Sydney and applicants. By making the suggested amendments, the OMA believes that the City of Sydney will achieve a revised DCP that includes development controls are consistent with higher planning instruments and policies as well as reflecting best practice in terms of safety. Importantly, by shifting its approach to include a greater reliance on merit based controls, the City of Sydney will be better able to respond to emerging technology and industry aspirations, along with enhancing the flexibility to emerging contexts and circumstances. 4. Delete requirement for a blanket 30% size reduction when replacing, modifying or converting an electric structure. In its place provide positive guidance to encourage architectural integration. As detailed within this submission, the OMA respectfully requests that the City of Sydney reconsider the following aspects of the Draft DCP 2015, prior to its adoption and implementation. — Promote remarkable and innovative architectural integration for Sydney’s signage. 1. Delete objective 9 ‘to restrict the establishment of third party advertising structures’ from the DCP. This will result in the following benefits: — Potential to introduce new third party signage where appropriate to enhance or enliven a precinct – allowing Sydney to be innovative and responsive to change. — Potential for the City to develop its own signage in the future. — The OOH industry can continue to grow, delivering community benefits, providing jobs and continuing to stimulate the economy. This will result in the following benefits: — Ensure consistent, high quality creative can be rolled out across Australia. — Align the DCP with national industry standards. 5. Delete the requirement of a 45 second dwell time. Instead align the required dwell time for electronic advertising with the NSW draft Transport Corridor Advertising and Signage Guidelines which specify a dwell time of 10 seconds below 80km/h and 25 seconds for 80km/hr and over. This will result in the following benefits: — Simplify planning controls and align with well-researched safety provisions designed by the NSW road safety authority. — Achieve clear consistent, state-wide guidelines that are easy to understand and comply with. 2. Reinsert clause regarding street furniture, using the following text: “Commercial Advertising Signs on street furniture (other than on furniture provided by or for the City of Sydney) are not permissible unless undertaken in accordance with the Footways dining policy.” This will result in the following benefits: — Provide reference to all forms of signage and advertising within the City of Sydney in the DCP designed to guide Signs and Advertisements. OMA PLANNING SUBMISSION – CITY OF SYDNEY’S DRAFT DCP 2015 31 CONCLUSION 6. S implify the luminance requirements by adopting those used in the NSW draft Transport Corridor Advertising and Signage Guidelines. Simplify the Guidelines for Light Impact Assessment report. odify the language in section 3.16.12 to guide flexible, 9. M contextual and merit-based assessment of individual signs rather than forbid signage technology in individual precincts. This will result in the following benefits: This will result in the following benefits: — Streamline the DCP with RMS approved standards to reduce confusion and administrative burden resulting from conflicting standards. — Adopting progressive merit based planning practices will assist in delivering the following outcomes. — Establish consistent development controls that are easy to understand and comply with. — Allow time and capital to be focused on design innovation. — Address ‘red tape’ barriers that inhibit creative initiative in line with the City’s Cultural Plan. 7. Align Clause 3.16.7.2(5) on Road Safety with NSW draft Transport Corridor Advertising and Signage Guidelines particularly by modifying proposed crossfade transition from 0.5–1.0 second to 0.1 second. This will result in the following benefits: — Ensure safety of road users and pedestrians in the City. — Ensure appropriate visual amenity during transition. — Facilitate future use of digital billboards to serve the community. — Encourage industry to work with Council to deliver creative and innovative signage that reflects and enhances local context and character. — Enable the OOH industry and Sydney to embrace new technologies. — Potential to reduce visual clutter as one dynamic content sign can perform the role of multiple static installations. — Enhance the vibrancy and global profile of Sydney as an international tourist hub. 10. Align the DCP with SEPP 64 and other planning instruments. The proposed DCP’s inconsistencies could present a legal issue for CoS that may lead to future litigation and costs. This will result in the following benefits: — Reduce potential for legal issues and litigation from planning and assessment processes resulting from inconsistencies between relevant planning instruments. 8. Amend the clause requiring applicants to provide a blanket 15% of advertising space to City of Sydney to reflect the purpose of a DCP which is ‘to provide guidance on development’. A DCP cannot lawfully require a developer to make developer contributions to a Council. 11. Modify the DCP to better balance economic outcomes with land use and cultural outcomes. This will result in the following benefits: — Reduce regulatory barriers to promote greater efficiency in operations for businesses. — Allow OOH to keep giving $22 million to charities and not for profits. — Ensure charities relying on the OOH industry, as a benefactor, continue to maintain appropriate access to content space and other benefits. This will result in the following benefits: — Promote more viable and sustainable business operations within the City of Sydney. 12. Modify the DCP to better align with the Council’s Creative City – draft Cultural Policy 2014–2024. This will result in the following benefits: — Enhance the vibrancy and global profile of Sydney as a creative, innovative and cultural City. 13. Align the DCP with the generally positive public perceptions of advertising. This will result in the following benefits: — Align with public appetite for good quality, attractive, modern signage. mend the DCP to better encourage a Sydney that is 14. A ‘Green, Global, Connected’. This will result in the following benefits: — Allow signage to enhance the City of Sydney.

OMA members endeavour to develop high quality signage that adds to the vibrancy of the urban environment. The OMA supports regulation which allows for fair and reasonable development standards that are appropriate for signage land use and which acknowledge the introduction of digital technology. The OMA has developed the following Guideline to develop understanding of digital technology and its place in OOH advertising in Australia. 02 DEFINITIONS/TERMINIOLOGY Candela (cd) – a measurement of directional light/intensity from a point source. Controller – computer or computer-type device used to program and operate digital displays. Dwell time – the length of time an advertisement is shown on screen before changing. Expected lifetime – Anticipated length of use for an LED. The expected lifetime of an LED is measured at the point when the sign has degraded to 50 percent of its original intensity. LEDs have a typical expected life of 50 000 to 100 000 hours (as specified by the manufacturer). Intensity – Often called brightness. The LED industry measures display intensity in candelas per square meter, which is also referred to as nits. Light Detector, Light Sensor – An electrical component used to detect the amount or level of ambient light surrounding a display. If dimming has been set to ‘AUTO’, the light detector or sensor adjusts the intensity of the LEDs accordingly. LED (Light Emitting Diode) – A solid-state component that uses a semiconductor (a silicon chip or some other type of semiconductor) that emits visible light when electronic current passes through it. LED illumination is monochromatic, occurring at a single wavelength, and the output can range from red to blue-violet, green, amber and white. An LED consists of two elements of processed material called P-type semiconductors and N-type semiconductors. These two elements are placed in direct contact, forming a region called the P-N junction. In this respect, the LED resembles most other diode types, but there are important differences. The LED also has a transparent package, allowing visible energy (or in some cases infrared energy) to pass through. The PN-junction of LEDs is larger than that of other diodes, too, and its shape is tailored to the application. Loop – The designated media content that runs before the content is repeated. A loop is comprised of slots. Luminance – The amount of visible light leaving a point on a surface in a given direction. This ‘surface’ can be a physical surface or an imaginary plane, and the light leaving the surface can be due to reflection, transmission and/or emission. The standard unit of luminance is the candela per square meter (cd/m2). As used in video applications, luminance is the degree of brightness (black and white portion of the video signal) at any given point in the video image. A video signal is comprised of luminance, chrominance (colour information) and synchronisation. If luminance is high, the picture is bright, and if low, the picture is dark. Changing the chrominance does not affect the brightness of the picture. Pixel – The smallest single point of light on a display that can be turned on and off. For LED displays, a pixel is the smallest block of light emitting devices that can generate all available colours. For incandescent displays, a pixel is an individual lamp on the matrix. Pixel Pitch – The centre-to-centre spacing of pixels in a matrix, expressed in inches or millimetres. An equivalent inch and mm value should be shown in the same order, eg 1 inch and 25mm. Readability Angle – The angle at which the LEDs on a sign can still be seen and/or read. The readability angle, which is dependent on ambient light and site conditions, is much larger than the viewing angle. For instance, a 30 degree readability angle LED sign can easily be read at angles greater than 90 degrees at night. In an instance where the LEDs are dimmed to less than 50 percent, for example, a viewer would still be able to see or read the LEDs, hence the greater angle than in viewing angle. Readability angle is largely subjective and difficult to measure. (See viewing angle) Transition – A visual effect used on an LED display to change from one message to another. Viewing Angle – The area will provide optimum viewing of a display. The angle is determined by the horizontal and vertical points at which the measured light intensity is 50 percent of that measured directly in front of the display. Expressed another way, the maximum viewing angle is defined by the vertical and horizontal points where the information displayed can no longer be interpreted by the viewer. (This does not mean that the LED cannot be seen outside the viewing angle. Viewing angle is an industry-accepted term and used by the LED manufacturers themselves.) (See readability angle) Viewing Distance – In general, the distance from a sign that text can be read. For digital displays, the maximum viewing distance is gauged by the readability of the entire display. It is generally accepted that for every 50cm of display height, there is a viewing distance of 20 metres (40:1 ratio). For example, a 2m display could reasonably be viewed at a distance of 80m. For traditional matrix displays, the maximum viewing distance is gauged by using the smallest text character (using a 7-pixel-high font). The accepted standard is that displays gain 6m of viewing per centimetre of character height. For example, using a 7-high font for a 4cm pixel (character height = 7 pixels x 4cm = 28cm), the viewing distance would be 168m. The minimum viewing distance is defined as the closest distance at which the colours from an individual pixel being to blend with the surrounding pixels. Page 02 03 COMMON SIGNAGE SIZES (MAY VARY) Spectacular – 19m x 4.5m Supersite 12.66m x 3.35m Super 8 – 8.3m x 2.2m Page 03 Poster 6m x 3m Landmark – various sizes Page 04 Portrait – 4.5m x 3m (can also be other sizes depending on locations) Street Furniture Page 05 04 DWELL TIME AND ANIMATION The OMA advocates for a 6-8 second dwell time in all speed zones which is based on international best practice. There is a range of variance in dwell times across Australian jurisdictions at this time: Queensland – 10 seconds under 80km/h and 25 seconds above 80km/h. NSW – 10 seconds under 80km/h and 25 seconds above 80km/h. Victoria – ranges from 2 seconds to 45 seconds across a range of speed zones. Western Australia – 10 seconds under 80km/h and 25 seconds above 80km/h. The OMA does not advocate at this time for animation on digital signage facing the roadway. 05 LUMINANCE The OMA has developed the following best practice guidance for luminance levels in conjunction with an expert, which are appropriate for different areas and times: Lighting Condition Zone 1 Zone 2 Zone 3 Full Sun on Face of Maximum Output Signage Maximum Output Maximum Output Day Time Luminance 6000-7000 cd/m2 6000-7000 cd/m2 Day Time 1000 cd/m2 Luminance Morning and Evening and Twilight and Inclement Weather 700 cd/m2 600 cd/m2 Night Time 350 cd/m2 300 cd/m2 6000-7000 cd/m2 500 cd/m2 Zone 1 covers areas with generally very high off-street ambient lighting, e.g. display centres, central city locations. Zone 2 covers areas with generally high to medium off-street ambient lighting. Zone 3 covers areas with generally low levels of off-street ambient lighting e.g. most rural areas, many residential areas. 06 COMMUNITY BENEFIT CONTRIBUTION OMA members support the provision of an appropriate public benefit when developing signage. However, it is important to note that this benefit must not result in the sign no longer being commercially viable. There is no set community benefit contribution, however it can range from developing and building a pedestrian bridge, through to the provision of bus shelters and bins. With the introduction of digital technology some OMA members are also Page 06 providing in kind media for local charities and events as part of this public benefit contribution. 07 PUBLIC CONCERN OMA members will work with members of the community to alleviate any concerns in relation to new digital signage, particularly in relation to luminance levels. 08 CONTENT Content on digital technology is subject to the same self-regulatory system as all OOH advertising. All OMA members only post content that complies with the Australian Association of National Advertisers (AANA) Code of Ethics and abide by all decisions made by the Advertising Standards Board (ASB). In practice this means that digital technology cannot be used to run content that would not normally be used in OOH advertising. In particular OMA members ensure digital advertisements do not include: • • • • • images which may be considered discriminatory on any grounds, including on account of race, ethnicity, nationality, sex, age, sexual preference, religion, disability or political belief. violence which is not justified in the context of the advertisement or may not be suitable for a broad audience. For example, guns cannot be pointed at the viewer or any characters in the advertisement. images which do not treat sex, sexuality and nudity with sensitivity to a broad audience. any use of strong or obscene language which is inappropriate for a broad audience. images which may contravene prevailing community standards about health and safety. For example, images cannot show drug use or smoking/tobacco. Additionally, OMA members also abide by the OMA Code of Ethics and Content Review Policy. Page 07 APPENDIX D: The OMA’s Driver Behaviour Research OMA PLANNING SUBMISSION – CITY OF SYDNEY’S DRAFT DCP 2015 37 April 2015 OMA Driver Behaviour Study 01 INTRODUCTION Following feedback from various road authorities around Australia the OMA undertook this project to develop Australian research about driver behaviour in the presence of signage. The project was initially designed around static billboards only, and was moved to Queensland in order to include digital billboards. 02 METHODOLOGY The OMA worked with the research company eyetracker on this project, and used both eyetracking technology and vbox technology in order to measure both what the driver was looking at as well as what the car was doing. The study followed a route through Brisbane in primarily 50-70km/h roads, with a mixture of light and heavy signage density. 29 participants took part in the study, aged between 25-54 years. All had a valid Queensland drivers licence with minimum 5 years driving experience and normal or corrected eyesight. The participants were naïve to the purpose of the study and were unfamiliar with the route. There was also a facilitator in the car with the participants. On premise signage was used as the baseline measurement for the study. The analysis was undertaken by two naïve encoders and was conducted to meet academic standards. 03 RESULTS The topline results are as follows: • There was no difference in the on roads viewing behaviour in the presence of third party and on-premise signage. • There was no significant difference in the fixation duration between third party and onpremise signage. • There was no significant difference in the fixation durations on digital and static signage. • There was evidence that drivers will look for longer at signage in road conditions that required less attentional demands – for example while the vehicle was stationary. • There was no difference in average headway, however we did see a statistical difference in lane deviation, which is unlikely to have practical implications. 04 CONCLUSION The OMA is currently finalising the results of this study in a peer reviewed article which will be released mid-year 2015.

APPENDIX E: Letters of Support for the OMA’s Submission OMA PLANNING SUBMISSION – CITY OF SYDNEY’S DRAFT DCP 2015 38 APPENDIX E: Letters of Support for the OMA’s Submission Simone Brandon, Director of Policy and Regulatory, Australian Association of National Advertisers (AANA) Julie Flynn, Chief Executive Officer, Free TV Australia Tony Hayle, Chief Executive Officer, The Communications Council Fiona Jolly, Chief Executive Officer, Advertising Standards Bureau (ASB) Adam Trevena, Director Development, QMS From: Simone Brandon Sent: Wednesday, 29 April 2015 11:00 AM To: 'bpechey@cityofsydney.nsw.gov.au' Cc: Marit Andersen Subject: City of Sydney’s draft Development Control Plan – Signs and Advertisements 2015 Dear Mr Pechey Australian Association of National Advertisers (AANA) would like to take this opportunity to support the Outdoor Media Association (OMA) Submission in response to the City of Sydney’s draft Development Control Plan – Signs and Advertisements 2015. As you may be aware, the AANA is the peak industry body for brand owners and has represented national advertisers for over 85 years. It also represents the common interests and obligations of companies across all business sectors involved in the advertising, marketing and media industries. Australia’s system of advertising self-regulation under the AANA Codes is recognised internationally, providing a technology neutral self-regulatory regime which applies to outdoor advertising, including digital media. Advertising plays a fundamental role in Australian society, with Australian marketing & advertising industry contributing $7.2 billion a year in revenue to the economy and employing 183,270 people throughout its industries. [Valuing Australia's Creative Industries, Creative Industries Innovation Centre December 2013] We agree with the OMA that the Draft DCP in its current form would cause considerable unnecessary administration and make it extremely difficult to upgrade existing infrastructure. As such, the City of Sydney and the community will not benefit from the improved amenity or increased revenue that modernising these sites would bring. The OMA’s submission details a number of requested amendments to the DCP so that applications for electronic signage are considered for their merit. It is our hope that the City of Sydney will work together with the OMA and the industry to implement guidelines that are future-focused, and will inspire signage in Sydney that reflects the city’s vibrant global status.

The Communications Council is Australia’s peak industry body representing marketing communications agencies to government, media and the public. We promote the value of marketing communications agencies and help grow member businesses through the provision of professional development services, advocacy and support. We represent more than 170 agencies which collectively employ more than 5000 individuals. Outdoor media plays a significant role in enabling our members to connect client businesses, organisations and charities with the public. Digital platforms, including outdoor digital signage, have become increasingly important for creative agencies in enabling them to develop new and innovative advertising creative for clients and the public. Sydney is a vibrant, modern and energetic city. Creative and contemporary Outdoor advertising adds excitement to the city, showcasing art, creativity and humour. Outdoor advertising also delivers useful information to consumers and the public. Given the nature of digital advertising, we fully support the need to review current guidelines to ensure they remain contemporary and are practical in their implementation. Our concern is that in its current form the Draft DCP is too general which would make administration difficult and jeopardise the upgrading of existing infrastructure. As such, the City of Sydney and the community will not benefit from the improved amenity or increased revenue that modernising these sites would bring. Digital advertising is part of the makeup of a contemporary global city. The draft guidelines should equally balance the positive outcomes of digital outdoor advertising with sensible analysis of any potential downsides such as motorist safety. We believe that the draft DCP is not adequately flexible to respond to emerging technologies and will therefore leave Sydney behind the other cosmopolitan cities in Australia and around the world. The Communications Council supports the OMA’s submission which details a number of requested amendments to the DCP so that applications for electronic signage are considered for their merit. It is our hope that the City of Sydney will work together with the OMA and the industry to implement guidelines that are future-focused, and will inspire signage in Sydney that reflects the city’s vibrant global status. Yours sincerely Tony Hale CEO of The Communications Council Mr Benjamin Pechey Senior Specialist Planner City of Sydney GPO Box 1591 Sydney NSW 2001 Dear Mr Pechey The Advertising Standards Bureau (ASB) would like to take this opportunity to support the Outdoor Media Association (OMA) Submission in response to the City of Sydney’s draft Development Control Plan – Signs and Advertisements 2015. I understand that the draft Development Control Plan proposes greater restrictions on outdoor advertising within the City of Sydney. We would be concerned if the draft plan proposes such an approach due to concerns about the content of outdoor advertising. We assure you that the content of outdoor advertising is effectively and efficiently controlled by the advertising selfregulation system. The self-regulation system is a mature and robust framework that exists to ensure that the content of all advertising and marketing communications, across all media including outdoor, is within prevailing community standards. The ASB is the complaint adjudication body within the national system of advertising selfregulation. The ASB receives complaints from the community about the content of all advertising and marketing communications across all media, with the Advertising Standards Board being the decision making body. The Board considers complaints about the content of advertising against the provisions of the AANA Code of Ethics as well as other advertiser codes. The self-regulation system works to ensure that advertising is honest, decent and in line with community standards and the system operates on the principles of transparency, effectiveness and robust decision making. The Outdoor Media Association is a key stakeholder within the selfregulation system. The OMA actively promotes awareness of the advertiser codes to its members and those members have proven to be responsive to, and supportive of, decisions made by the Advertising Standards Board. Encl - ASB Fact Sheet -2If you would like to discuss how the self-regulation system effectively controls outdoor advertising content and the work of the ASB in collaboration with the outdoor media industry, please do not hesitate to contact me on 02 6173 1501 or fjolly@adstandards.com.au. Yours sincerely Fiona Jolly Chief Executive Officer 30 April 2015 The Advertising Standards Bureau The Advertising Standards Bureau (ASB) administers Australia's national system of advertising self-regulation through the Advertising Standards Board and the Advertising Claims Board. The system meets world best practice in self-regulation. It operates at no cost to the consumer, is independent from both industry and lobby groups, and is based on principles of accessibility, transparency, responsiveness and robust decision making. Our vision and mission To be the pre-eminent adjudicative authority for advertising and marketing communication complaints against industry codes of practice. Our mission is to administer a well-respected, effective and independent advertising complaints resolution service, regulating advertising standards in Australia, adjudicating both public and competitor complaints and ensuring compliance with relevant Codes and Initiatives. Our purpose To efficiently manage and promote the complaints adjudication component of the advertising self-regulation system in Australia. To ensure the community, industry and government is confident in and respects the advertising self-regulatory system. To ensure the general standards of advertising are in line with community values. Who funds the self-regulation system? An initiative of the Australian Association of National Advertisers (AANA), the ASB and its Boards are funded by the advertising industry through a voluntary levy system. The self-regulation system recognises that advertisers share a common interest in promoting consumer confidence in and respect for general standards of advertising. Responsible advertisers assist in maintaining the self-regulation system’s viability and support its administration by agreeing to a levy being applied to their advertising spend. Since the establishment of the advertising self-regulation system in Australia, the levy was set at 0.035 per cent, just $3.50 per $10,000 of gross media expenditure, in 2014 this rose to 0.05 per cent, just $5.00 per $10,000. The Advertising Standards Board The centerpiece of the self-regulation system is the Advertising Standards Board. The Board includes 20 people from a broad range of age groups and backgrounds and is gender balanced – representative of the diversity of Australian society. Individual Board members do not represent any particular interest group and are individually and collectively clearly independent of the industry. The Board discharges its responsibilities with fairness, impartiality and with a keen sense of prevailing community values in its broadest sense. Its task is often a difficult one and the outcomes of its determinations will not and cannot please everyone. On the rare occasion an individual member has a connection with a party concerned in a particular determination, that Board member absents herself or himself from the meeting. Information about the ASB, the Codes it administers and the work of the Boards is at www.adstandards.com.au. Independent Reviewers As part of its ongoing commitment to international best practice in delivering the advertising self-regulation system in Australia, the ASB introduced a review process for Advertising Standards Board decisions in April 2008. The Independent Review process provides the community and advertisers a channel through which they can appeal decisions made by the Advertising Standards Board. The review process is available to the advertiser and the person who originally made a complaint. The Advertising Claims Board The Advertising Claims Board provides a competitive complaint resolution service. It is designed to determine complaints involving issues of truth, accuracy and legality of advertising on a user pays cost recovery basis. Service is provided through a register of lawyers. Resources available The ASB conducts regular research into the views of the community and how the Board’s determinations match those views. This research can assist advertisers when they are creating or deciding on new advertisements. The ASB also publishes a case report about each case considered by the Board. By reviewing case reports and searching on some key issues, advertisers and creative agencies can easily access a library of precedents. Determination summaries are also available. These provide details of Board determinations in relation to particular sections of the AANA Code of Ethics.
