You can appeal a planning decision if any of the following apply:
- you were refused planning permission for reasons that you think go against our development plan or planning policy
- you were granted planning permission with conditions you object to - you'll need to explain why you think they're unnecessary, unenforceable, vague, unreasonable or irrelevant
- we have not given you a decision on your application and eight weeks have passed since the date we told you we had received it (or a different deadline you agreed with us has passed)
For major projects, you can only appeal if 13 weeks have passed. Examples of a major project include a development with 10 or more dwellings or a building with floor space of more than 1,000 square metres.
