    Lewes took a median of 59 days over the applications it decided in the last year.

What happens while it is decided

This application is with Lewes for determination, against a statutory target of eight weeks. Over the last year Lewes decided outline applications in a median of 58 days. More in our guide to how long planning decisions take.

About outline applications

An outline application tests the principle of developing a site, holding back details such as appearance and landscaping as reserved matters for later approval. More in our guide to planning application types.
