Where the appeals come from
Each month's Planning Committee gets an appeal report from the council's planning service listing appeals received, allowed, dismissed and withdrawn. We read its sections with fixed rules and quote each row as printed. 10 appeal reports are on the record. An appeal is shown under its latest outcome. The Planning Inspectorate decides appeals; its casework portal has each decision letter.
