The process from here

The council has decided this application; the published outcome sits in the record above and the decision notice on the council portal carries the detail, including any conditions.

If permission was granted, work must normally begin within three years of the decision. If it was refused, the applicant can appeal within the statutory time limit or submit a revised scheme.

About outline applications

How this application type works

An outline application tests the principle of developing a site before the detail is worked up. Some or all of the particulars, such as appearance, layout, scale, access and landscaping, are held back as reserved matters for later approval. Permission at outline stage does not by itself allow building to start; the reserved matters must be approved first.
