   Awaiting decision

   Decision expected by 15 October 2026, 8 weeks from validation under the statutory target for most applications. Extensions of time are common and are agreed case by case.

   Central Bedfordshire took a median of 71 days over the applications it decided in the last year.

This application is with Central Bedfordshire for determination, against a statutory target of eight weeks. Over the last year Central Bedfordshire decided reserved matters applications in a median of 230 days. More in our guide to how long planning decisions take.

A reserved matters application fills in the detail held back from an earlier outline permission, judged against that permission rather than the principle of development. More in our guide to planning application types.
