Redland City is the best place to live, work, play and do business. Our location, 35km from the third largest city in Australia and nestling on the shores of Moreton Bay, makes the Redlands the ideal place to stage events. We have an ever-expanding calendar of events and we are keen to grow this portfolio even more. Events can be BIG business, but also contribute to community well-being, creativity, diversity and innovation.

Redland City Council wants to support you in organising events that provide opportunities for people to connect and enjoy the beautiful landscapes of the Redlands while addressing necessary health, safety and environmental issues.

To reduce red tape, we have streamlined our event assessment process and developed this Event Information Kit to make it easier for you to apply for event approvals. The kit describes all of Council’s requirements for events with the relevant forms in one document.

Redland City Council is committed to working with you to deliver well-managed events for the community. For advice on producing your event in Redland City, please contact Council on 3829 8999.

IntroductionRedland City is well known for its rich culture, unique identity and natural assets, all of which contribute to our dynamic and enviable lifestyle.

Redland City Council supports inclusive, vibrant and sustainable events that showcase the Redlands and support stronger community engagement.

We welcome you to host your event in the Redlands and encourage you to review the Redland City Council Event Information Kit. This kit has been designed to provide event organisers with an overview of what permits or bookings an event may require from Council.

Events include but are not limited to: concerts, festivals, markets, community events and organised one-off sporting events. There are many important considerations when planning an event. Please note some event planning considerations that may be required by State Government legislation are not addressed in this Event Information Kit and it is recommended you contact the Queensland Government on 137 468.

To ensure Council has adequate time to review your submission, request further information if required and process any permits or licences, applications for events with less than 3000 people attending must be submitted at least six weeks prior to the event. Applications for events with more than 3000 people attending are to be submitted at least three months prior to the event.

Fees may apply to the permits or licences discussed in this kit. For a full list of Council’s fees refer to www.redland.qld.gov.au.

For further information contact Council’s Environmental Health Team via email to [email protected] or by telephone on 3829 8999.

Temporary Entertainment Event ApprovalCouncil regulates Temporary Entertainment Events on Council land or roads to ensure that they are carried out in a safe manner for patrons, whilst preventing nuisances to the surrounding environment. Event organisers may be required to apply for approval by submitting a Temporary Entertainment Event Form (Attachment A). You will also need to provide a detailed Event Management Plan, Emergency Management Plan and Site Plan with your Temporary Entertainment Event Form.

Event Management Plan An Event Management Plan is a document that comprehensively describes all the issues that have been addressed in planning the event. Event Management Plans need to address: public liability, risk management, traffic management, community safety and security, first aid, electrical safety, gas safety, environmental management, amenities, temporary structures, service of food or liquor, amusement operator requirements and signage/advertising. For further information on how to write an Event Management Plan phone the Office of Liquor and Gaming Regulation on 137 468 for a copy of their A Planning Guide for Event Managers or visit www.olgr.qld.gov.au.

Emergency Management PlanAn Emergency Management Plan is a document that outlines how emergencies will be handled during the event. Emergency Management Plans need to: identify who is responsible for responding to incidents; procedures to be followed for a number of situations, e.g. medical emergency or fire; include a contact list for event stakeholders and emergency services; detail evacuation procedures and identify emergency exits/assembly points on site maps. Ensure access to fire safety installations and emergency exits are maintained. Provide copies of the Emergency Management Plan to all event stakeholders: staff/volunteers, all stall holders/suppliers, emergency services and local/State Government agencies.

Site PlanA Site Plan is an aerial drawing of the event location that details the layout of all the activities, buildings and facilities at your event. Your Site Plan should be drawn to scale and must include the location of roads, car parking, emergency vehicle access, fire fighting equipment, emergency exits, emergency assembly areas, pedestrian walkways, first aid, areas for lost children/property, each stall and its name, each amusement operator and their name, amenities, bins and audio equipment (e.g. speakers).

When planning an event it is important to consider what other events are planned for that date and location in the Redlands.

Jump onto the ‘What’s On’ calendar on Council’s website www.redland.qld.gov.au and check if there are any conflicting events. While you are there, why not submit your event to increase community awareness?

Public liability insurance It is important to note that only events managed and controlled by Council are covered under its public liability insurance policy and the policy indemnifies Council and no other party. All other event organisers are required to provide a certificate of currency for $20 million that covers the duration and scope of the event and notes Redland City Council as an interested party. You should also ensure that any other party or provider associated with your event has public liability cover and that evidence of this cover is provided to you prior to the event.

Risk management Council is committed to event safety and takes risk management seriously. Risk management is an important component of your planning and it is your responsibility to complete a Risk Assessment prior to the scheduled event. The Risk Assessment should identify, assess and control risks relevant to the event. Council has provided a number of tools to assist you with this. Please refer to the Risk Calculator (Attachment B) to assess identified risks and complete the Risk Assessment Template (Attachment C). A sample of a completed Risk Assessment is provided for your assistance (Attachment D).

Disclaimer: The risk management material contained in this kit is only general information and is not intended to be an exhaustive process for identifying and managing risk. The material provided by Redland City Council does not constitute formal advice of any kind in respect to your specific event, nor is it an endorsement of any event planner’s application. Council strongly advises you to seek independent advice for your own risk assessment. While the information included here is provided in good faith, no representation is made as to its accuracy, completeness or suitability for your specific event.

Public spaces Council has many beautiful parks, beaches and facilities you can access for your event. If you would like to use a Council venue you need to identify the name and address of the Council venue that is suitable for the size and scale of your event. Please note: bookings do not guarantee exclusive use of the venue. Use of Council parks and open spaces is subject to the terms and conditions of hire in addition to any conditions as part of the Temporary Entertainment Event Approval. In some instances fees and charges and/or a bond may apply. Please contact Council’s Sport and Community Facilities Unit on 3829 8999 to arrange your park booking or for clarification on installation of equipment or temporary requirements to conduct your event (e.g. set up of marquees, disturbance of the soil including installation of tent pegs, digging and trenching on Council Land, vehicle access, and location of bins/toilets).

Where it is identified that an event may interact with traffic or a road related area, additional information may be required.

Traffic Control PermitsA Traffic Control Permit from Council is needed to:

• close a road,

• alter traffic conditions on a road,

• temporarily close car parks or

• Conduct cycle events in live traffic.

You are also required to:

• Apply to the Queensland Police Service – www.police.qld.gov.au;

• Apply to the Department of Transport and Main Roads if the event is on a State controlled road www.tmr.qld.gov.au;

• Erect road closure notification signage not less than seven days prior to the event;

• Provide written advice to Queensland Ambulance Service and Queensland Fire and Rescue Service at least one month prior to the event date;

• Publish a public notice advising of the full road closure at least one week prior to the event. Prior to publication confirmation, provide to Council a copy of the public notice advertisement;

• Advise any affected public transport providers at least one month prior to the event date;

• Provide evidence of actions taken to consult with residents and businesses affected by the road closure (e.g. letterbox drops, public meetings, personal visits) and make available to Council details of any and all objections as known to you;

All Traffic Control Permit Applications require a Traffic Managemant Plan and should be lodged at least six weeks prior to you event.

To ensure safe and proper traffic flow on the day, it is recommended that you conduct a pre-event meeting with all persons involved in the directing of vehicle movements. For all cycle events that are in live traffic, it is also a requirement that you have Department of Transport and Main Roads event signage.

To apply for a Traffic Control Permit or for further information on the above requirements, please contact Council’s City Infrastructure Group on 3829 8999.

Traffic Management PlanAll Traffic Control Permit Applications require a Traffic Managemant Plan. A Traffic Management Plan is required in any situation where significant numbers of vehicles will be entering or exiting off-road parking facilities or when any control is necessary to direct traffic in a way that is different to that dictated by road rules or existing signage. This will include speed reductions which may be necessary to deal with venues where there is the potential for interaction of vehicle and pedestrian traffic.

Traffic Management Plans must be prepared by an accredited Traffic Control Provider in accordance with Transport Operations (Road Use Management) Act 1995 and the Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices and include:

• Legible Traffic Guidance Schemes showing the affected roadways of the event and/or sites, appropriate signage and barricading and traffic control to be installed.

• Diagrammatic details of what type of traffic management devices will be used and in what positions.

• Confirmation that all persons involved in directing vehicle movements are adequately qualified. This must be a Police Officer or an accredited Traffic Control Officer (please note that the Department of Transport and Main Roads have introduced the Event Traffic Marshal Scheme for local community and sporting groups).

• Complete and accurate details of what road closures are being sought and for what periods those roads will be closed.

• Details of a least one effective diversionary route for traffic affected by each road closure

• Distinctly identified emergency vehicle accesses.

If you are unsure if a Traffic Management Plan and/or Parking and Pedestrian Management Plan is required or what should be included please contact Council’s City Infrastructure Group on 3829 8999. For further information on the Event Traffic Marshal Scheme, visit

Traffic management Planned traffic management is essential for maintaining public safety at events.

Community awareness The level of impact an event has on the surrounding community can vary. Consider if your event will affect the amenity of the surrounding neighbourhood e.g. loud noise from audio systems or fireworks, or increased car parking on residential streets. Council recommends you notify the community in advance and provide them with a person to contact if they have any queries. This might be in the form of advertising or a letterbox drop. If you require further information please contact Council’s Environmental Health Team via email to [email protected] or by telephone on 3829 8999.

Community safety and security Community safety and security at events is essential. Different types, scale and scope of events require different levels of security and should be determined as part of the risk assessment for example crowd control, cash and equipment protection.

An area for lost children and lost property should be clearly signed and staffed accordingly.

If event infrastructure remains at the event site overnight, you must engage appropriate security.

It is vital that all areas of your site, especially access paths and emergency exists are clearly illuminated. This may require you to provide additional lighting at your own expense.

Consultation with the Queensland Police Service, Queensland Fire and Emergency Services and Queensland Ambulance Service is strongly recommended depending on the type, scale and scope of the event. Council and/ or the Queensland Police Service may require you to engage police officers on special duties, security guards and/or crowd control, at your expense. Please contact Queensland Police Service on 131 444 to determine their requirements or visit www.police.qld.gov.au.

Crowded places, particularly for major events, may require additional safety and security precautions. Suspicious activity including terrorist threats should be considered as part of the event planning process. For further information refer to the Australian National Security website https://www.nationalsecurity.gov.au/Media-and-publications/Publications/Pages/default.aspx.

First aid First aid services are critical to any event. Council requires that the minimum qualification level is “Apply First Aid”. First aid posts should be properly staffed, equipped and clearly identified so they can be easily located by those who need them. The number of first aid posts will depend on the size and scale of the event. Below is a guide for the provision of first aid services. Where the expected attendance at the event is 5,000 or more, first aid room facilities must be provided.

Car parkingAs the event organiser, you must ensure that there is adequate parking for attendees (including disabled parking), that does not interfere with the usual parking provisions for residents and or businesses. Please be aware that parking on nature strips, areas of open space and parkland is not permitted without a permit from Council. If you believe illegal parking may be an issue at the event, Council recommends that you put marshals in place to ensure parking infringements do not occur.

Parking and Pedestrian Management Plan Separate Parking and Pedestrian Management Plans may need to be submitted if your event impacts on surrounding traffic or there is an interface between pedestrians and traffic. The management plans should identify on a site map and in supporting documentation:• The entry and exit points for off-street parking along

with the route pedestrians are expected to follow • Show the places where marshals are required for the

safe and efficient use of parking and the direction of pedestrians

• Placement of temporary fencing that may be needed to either delineate traffic movement or separate vehicles and pedestrians

• Notification to surrounding road users and residents of potential interruptions to traffic

• Details of escort vehicles • Approvals from relevant agencies to run the event.

Public TransportFor public transport options contact TransLink on 13 12 30 or visit www.TransLink.com.au. Please note that if your event will attract more than 5000 people per day you will need to declare it as a special event with TransLink. Dependent on the scale of the event, a ‘park and ride’ service may be required. All transport options should be communicated through your event promotion.

Electrical safetyYou must comply with the provisions of the Electrical Safety Act 2002 and Electrical Safety Regulation 2013 which apply to electrical equipment.

This includes but is not restricted to:

• All electrical equipment, including extension leads, to be tested and tagged in accordance with AS/NZS3760:2010 In-service safety inspection and testing of electrical equipment;

• Extension leads are to be tagged with the owner’s name;

• Portable electrical equipment is to be double insulated or earth-leakage protected;

• All flexible and extension leads must be placed in an area where they will avoid being damaged, or where they will be protected from any damage including by liquid. In areas subject to foot traffic, extension and flexible leads are to be laid out so they do not pose a trip hazard or obstruct safe access to the area. To remove potential trip hazards, leads on the ground are to be kept clear of moisture wherever possible and are to be covered with adhesive duct tape or ground mats.

• No piggy back plugs or double adaptors are permitted. Power boards are to be used where there is more than one electrical device in use.

It is recommended that portable residual current devices i.e. portable safety switches be connected into

the main power supply as a safety precaution in addition to the residual current devices installed at the main power outlet.

For further information on electrical testing and tagging please visit the Electrical Safety Office website at: www.justice.qld.gov.au.

Use of Council controlled electrical facilitiesSome of Council’s parks and facilities have power for event use. If you would like to access power supplies on Council land you will be required to apply to Council and pay a connection fee where applicable. For more information on whether a venue has access to power please contact Council’s Sport and Community Facilities Unit on 3829 8999.

PowerlinesIf your event location is in close proximity to overhead powerlines please be aware that additional safety measures, such as exclusion zones are required. For further information on working near powerlines please see the Energex Look up and Live factsheet on their website: www.energex.com.au

Use of generatorsIf the existing Council controlled electrical facilities are not sufficient for the event, you may need to use generators. Always follow the manufacturer’s instruction in the operator’s manual. The hazards of incorrect generator use are poisoning from toxic engine exhaust, electric shock, electrocution, fire, and contact with hot surfaces.

Please consider the following and address them in your Risk Assessment:

• Location of generators – always use outdoors, only in dry weather, minimum of one meter spacing on all sides and prevent access by the general public e.g. barriers;

• Storage of fuel- store fuel in labelled containers away from any fuel burning appliance;

• Hot generator refuelling- never add fuel while generator is running, wait for the motor to cool;

• Electrical hazards- ensure hands are dry before touching the generator and do not allow it to get wet;

• Fire hazards- ensure suitable fire extinguishers are immediately accessible;

• Potential noise nuisance.

Gas safety The Queensland Petroleum and Gas Inspectorate advise that mobile food vendors (caravans, mobile food vans etc) attending events in Redland City are required to have a current Gas System Compliance Certificate (AS/NZS 5601:2:2010 Gas Installations). This certificate is a requirement under the Petroleum and Gas (Production and Safety) Regulation 2004 s105E which states:

The owner of a commercial vehicle or vessel must ensure the gas system in the vehicle or vessel is inspected, and has a gas compliance certificate or an interstate gas compliance certificate issued in relation to it, at least once in every 1 year period.

You will need to have a copy of your Gas System Compliance Certificate available for viewing by Council Officers during the event.

Gas appliances should be checked regularly by a qualified person. This ensures that they continue to operate safely and efficiently. Always use a licensed gasfitter to install, repair, service or remove gas appliances.

Portable recreation LPG cylinders (barbecue, camping) need particular care. These cylinders usually contain nine kilograms of LPG and can be refilled or exchanged at most service stations. All cylinders must have a valid 10-year stamp to be refilled. Gas refilling stations are obliged to check the date of every cylinder to be refilled. If the cylinder is not “in test” then it should not be filled.

Keep LPG cylinders secure during transport and don’t carry them in the passenger compartment. Nine kilogram LPG cylinders can only be transported in enclosed vehicles for the purpose of getting the cylinder refilled (or exchanged). In addition, no more than two LPG cylinders may be transported at the one time.

Examples of ventilationExamples of the minimum ventilation needed when using gas appliances in a quasi-outdoor situation.

Outdoor areas must be well ventilated when using gas. These images show that having two sides of the tent/shelter open ensures good cross breeze and ventilation in a quasi-outdoor situation.

Hazardous areaNo ignition sources are to be used within these hazardous areas of an exchange cylinder. Do not use an ignition source within these distances around an exchange cylinder.

Clearances from burnersBurners (such as hotplates and deep fryers) should not be placed near combustible surfaces. Use these clearances as a guide to how far away to keep combustible materials.

Open both ends

1500 mm

When you do have to transport a LPG cylinder make sure it is stored securely in an upright position (so it cannot fall over or become a projectile), is placed in a boot/tray rather than a cabin, and in a way that avoids excess exposure to sunlight or heat. Also check that:

• The service valve is turned off;

• The safety relief valve is positioned so that any gas release will not impinge on another LPG cylinder;

• The LPG cylinder has a current test date (no more than 10 years);

• There is a screw plug in the cylinder outlet when not in use.

For more information on the safe transportation of LPG cylinders visit the Petroleum and Gas Inspectorate’s website at www.mines.industry.qld.gov.au/assets/petroleum-pdf/info_cylindertransport.pdf.

Use and store your LPG cylinder in a well-ventilated area and store away from excess heat and possible sources of ignition. No ignition sources should be used within 500mm of the relief valves of a LPG cylinder, and extending 1500 mm from the tank as shown in the Checklist for Outdoor Events, available on the Petroleum and Gas Inspectorate’s website at www.mines.industry.qld.gov.au/assets/petroleum-pdf/lpg_safety_checklist.pdf.

Food If food and refreshments are served or sold it may be necessary for food vendor operators to obtain a Temporary Food Business Licence. Generally food businesses that involve the preparation of food do require a licence. Some exemptions apply to not for profit organisations, the sale of packaged foods and the sale of whole fruit and vegetables. If you are unsure about whether you require a food licence please contact Council’s Environmental Health Team via email to [email protected] or by telephone on 3829 8999. Mobile food businesses (e.g. ice cream or kebab vans) must hold a licence in Queensland. It is the responsibility of the event organiser to ensure all food vendors are licensed. Food businesses can apply for a licence by completing the Temporary Food Business Licence form (Attachment E) and submitting it to Council at least four weeks prior to the event.

Liquor If alcohol is to be sold or served at the event, an application may need to be made to the Office of Liquor and Gaming Regulation for a permit. Please note that if the event is to be held at a Council venue some liquor permits will require Council’s non-objection endorsement on the original application prior to its submission. For application forms and assistance, please phone the Office of Liquor and Gaming Regulation on 137 468 or visit www.olgr.qld.gov.au.

Fireworks Carefully consider the appropriateness of the event site for a fireworks display, taking into account any potential environmental and social impacts. Some sites are unsuitable for fireworks displays.

If you include a fireworks display in the event, you must engage a licensed pyrotechnician to carry out the display in accordance with the Queensland Code of Practice – Control of Outdoor Fireworks Displays.

Please supply a copy of the following to Council:

• Fireworks display notification form (submitted to the Department of Natural Resources and Mines visit www.dnrm.qld.gov.au or phone 137 468).

• Fireworks insurance policy;

• Fireworks contractor licence; and

• Fireworks operator’s licence (conducting the show).

Ensure you notify the local fire station about the fireworks at least seven days in advance.

In accordance with the Explosives Regulation 2003, licensed fireworks operators must have a safety management system. Event organisers should obtain a copy of their site specific safety management plan. The plan will include the details of the exclusion zone for safety purposes. Event organisers are responsible for the security of the exclusion zone around the fireworks during the display. The use of metal equipment is prohibited (mortars, tubes, frames, pickets and stands).

Love Your Reusable Bottle Reduce waste at your event by encouraging people to carry a reusable water bottle rather than single-use plastic water bottles. Healthy Waterways has launched a ‘Love Your Reusable Bottle’ campaign which encourages people to fill their reusable water bottles with free tap water. For more information visit http://healthywaterways.org/initiatives/cem/reusablebottle or contact Council’s Environment and Education Unit on 3824 8611.

Environmental management In conducting the event, you must take all reasonable and practical measures to minimise environmental impacts. These include:

• Preventing the release of any material that may cause environmental harm to land, water or waterways via the stormwater system;

• Ensuring that liquid spills are cleaned up immediately using sawdust and other absorbent materials and bagged and disposed of accordingly;

• Preventing the release of materials into the air such as dust, fumes and smoke.

NoiseYou must take all reasonable and practical measures to minimise noise nuisance. Give consideration to the placement of your stage area to assist with this (including directing speakers away from residents and businesses). We recommend you use sound level monitoring equipment throughout the duration of the event. Any amplified sound must comply with the Environmental Protection Act 1994. Penalties may apply if noise levels are exceeded. Please note that if the event holds a liquor permit alternate noise criteria will apply.

WasteAs the event organiser, you are responsible for supplying additional bins specifically for rubbish generated at the event site and surrounding areas. Council recommends the minimum number of bins for attendee use (not to include existing bin infrastructure), as follows:

• 1 x 240L bin per 100 attendees – if no food or drinks served or sold

• 2 x 240L bins per 100 attendees – if food or drinks served or sold

• 2 x 240L recycle bin per 100 attendees

• 1 x 3m front load skip bin for greater than 1,000 attendees

Waste managementA sustainable event takes measures to minimise its environmental impact by adopting best management practice in recycling and waste, purchasing and packaging options and clean-up regime. This can be achieved by:

• Providing a bin infrastructure system that is clearly signed and strategically placed to make it easy for people to do the right thing;

• Providing a bin servicing and litter collection regime that encourages everyone to keep the site clean;

• Allocating designated smoking only areas with ‘butt out’ facilities and infrastructure to assist smokers to butt it, then bin it;

• Working with stallholders and food vendors to achieve recyclable and biodegradable packaging.

For more information on how to hold a sustainable event, go to Redland City Council’s website www.redland.qld.gov.au to view the comprehensive waste planning documents titled Queensland Sustainable Events Guide.

Animal management If the event includes domestic animals, Local Law No. 2 (Animal Management) requires that all animals be under effective control or contained within an appropriate enclosure at all times. Further, as the event organiser is in charge of the animals please ensure you clean up after them. Protecting the community against risk of injury and damage is paramount while

ensuring the animals do not create a nuisance. For more information please contact Council’s Animal Management Team 3829 8999.

Toilet facilities must comply with the Waste Reduction and Recycling Act 2011. It is important that they are:

• Accessible for people with disabilities;

• Cleaned and re-stocked regularly (at your expense);

• Located away from food service or food storage areas;

• Weather protected;

• Fitted with a sharps disposal unit;

• Well lit so as not to become a security or safety risk.

It is the organiser’s responsibility to obtain a manufacturer’s statement of compliance for any portable toilets supplied at the event.

If the event is likely to attract families, consideration should also be given to providing baby change facilities. To ensure that there is a suitable number of toilets at an event the Australian Emergency Manual recommends the following as a guide:

A) Toilet facilities for events where alcohol is NOT available

ATTENDEES MALES FEMALES<500 1 Toilet, 2 Urinals, 2HB 6 Toilets, 2HB

<1000 2 Toilets , 4 Urinals, 4HB 9 Toilets, 4HB

<2000 4 Toilets , 8 Urinals, 6HB 12 Toilets, 6HB

<3000 6 Toilets , 15 Urinals, 10HB 18 Toilets, 10HB

<5000 8 Toilets , 25 Urinals, 17HB 30 Toilets, 17HB

At least one (1) unisex disability access toilet is required. (HB = hand basins)

B) Toilet facilities for events where alcohol IS being consumed

ATTENDEES MALES FEMALES<500 3 Toilets, 8 Urinals, 2HB 13 Toilets, 2HB

<1000 5 Toilets, 10 Urinals, 4HB 16 Toilets, 4HB

<2000 9 Toilets, 15 Urinals, 7HB 18 Toilets, 7HB

<3000 10 Toilets, 20 Urinals, 14HB 22 Toilets, 14HB

<5000 12 Toilets, 30 Urinals, 20HB 40 Toilets, 20HB

At least one (1) unisex disabled toilet is required. (HB = hand basin)

For events less than four hours duration, the number of toilet facilities may be reduced by 30%. Toilets must be regularly serviced throughout the event to ensure that they are clean and that a continuous supply of water, soap, paper hand towel and toilet paper is provided. Where portable chemical type units or effluent holding tanks are used for events longer than four hours, they must be located so that they can be pumped out during the event.

Amenities As the event organiser, you may be required to supply additional toilet facilities specifically for attendees of the event.
