LP7 Advertisements

New advertisements must be of the highest standard of design and respect local character and context.

Applications for advertisement consent will only be permitted where they meet all of the following criteria. The advertisement must not:

  1. adversely affect the historic significance of buildings, and be sensitive to the character of an area through size and siting, especially those areas of historic significance; and
  2. contribute to an unsightly proliferation or clutter of signage in the local area and detract from the amenity of the street scene; cause a physical obstruction to the public realm; and cause visual intrusion by virtue of light pollution into adjoining residential properties, and avoid flashing internal or external illumination.
