A Sowerby Bridge permission with conditions attached isn’t fully usable until those conditions are addressed, at least the ones requiring action before commencement. Treating a decision notice as the final step is exactly how people end up building unlawfully without realising it.

The statutory target for a decision in Sowerby Bridge is 8 weeks, though realistically it’s worth planning for longer, discharge applications often sit lower down a council’s priority list than live planning applications.
