What happens while it is decided

The process from here

This application is with Sunderland 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 other applications

How this application type works

This application sits outside the common categories, which can include county matters such as minerals and waste, works by statutory undertakers, demolition notifications and other less frequent procedures. The council record linked below sets out the specific procedure that applies, and the description above is taken directly from the published register.
