   Awaiting decision

   Decision expected by 30 January 2017, 8 weeks from validation under the statutory target for most applications. Extensions of time are common and are agreed case by case.

   Wokingham took a median of 55 days over the applications it decided in the last year.

This application is at appeal, which passes the decision from the council to the national planning inspectorate, or in Scotland usually to a local review body first. The appeal considers the scheme afresh against the same policies.

Anyone who commented on the original application is normally notified and can comment again within the appeal deadline. Appeal decisions take months rather than weeks, and the outcome replaces the council's decision.

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.
