   Awaiting decision

   Decision expected by 23 July 2026, 8 weeks from validation under the statutory target for most applications. Extensions of time are common and are agreed case by case.

   Sefton took a median of 62 days over the applications it decided in the last year.

This application is with Sefton for determination, against a statutory target of eight weeks. Over the last year Sefton's median decision took 62 days. More in our guide to how long planning decisions take.

An amendment application makes limited changes to a permission that already exists; anything beyond modest adjustment needs a fresh application. More in our guide to planning application types.
