Planning permission appeals
You can make an appeal if you feel that your planning application:
- has been unreasonably refused
- has had conditions added which you disagree with
- has not been decided within the timescale indicated on your planning application acknowledgement letter
It is also possible to appeal against other planning decisions - see other types of appeal on the Planning Portal.
Only applicants or their appointed agents can appeal a decision.
Before you appeal a planning decision, make sure you have read the officer's report setting out the background and reasons for the decision. If you need further clarification, speak to your planning officer.
How to appeal
All appeals are dealt with and decided by the Planning Inspectorate. Full information can be found in their procedural guide and on Planning Portal.
