   Chelmsford took a median of 55 days over the applications it decided in the last year.

This application is with Chelmsford for determination, against a statutory target of eight weeks. Over the last year Chelmsford decided advertisement consent applications in a median of 55 days. More in our guide to how long planning decisions take.

Advertisement consent is judged on two things only: amenity and public safety, not competition or other planning considerations. More in our guide to planning application types.
