Planning application

183 The Avenue Lowestoft Suffolk NR33 7LJ

Awaiting decision East Suffolk DC/25/4338/FUL Full Application

Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.

Proposal

To construct a vehicular access over the public footpath to the front of my property. This access will be constructed to the standard Highways specification and by an approved contractor. There is already a vehicular access to neighbouring properties each side of my own, so this will link the three together.

As published by the council, reference DC/25/4338/FUL

What happens while it is decided

The process from here

This application is with East Suffolk for determination. The council publicises it, consults neighbours and technical bodies where required, and weighs the responses against local and national planning policy.

The statutory target is eight weeks for most applications and thirteen for major development, though extensions of time are common. Comments carry most weight while the case is undecided, so check the council portal for the deadline if you want to respond.

About full applications applications

How this application type works

A full application seeks permission for a complete, detailed proposal in one go: siting, design, access and landscaping are all fixed at this stage. It is the standard route for new buildings, conversions and changes of use. The statutory target is eight weeks for smaller schemes and thirteen weeks for major development, though complex cases often take longer by agreement.
