This application is with North Somerset for determination, against a statutory target of eight weeks. Over the last year North Somerset's median decision took 56 days. More in our guide to how long planning decisions take.
About reserved matters applications
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.
