Sevenoaks Council Sevenoaks Planning department is quite a busy one, as in addition to the applications listed below, there will be many more building regulations applications. The council has improved the speed of service significantly since they were found to be the second worst authority in the country. The government target is for councils to make a decision within 8 weeks. If the council has not done so by then, the applicant has the right to take the decision out of their hands by appealing to the Planning Inspectorate. The available figures below show that the council grant permission in about three-quarters of cases.
