Melton is one of the slowest councils in England for householder decisions, ranking #296 out of 296. The council extends the time limit on 75% of applications - one of the highest rates in England. Expect your application to take longer than the standard deadline. Householder applications are slightly more likely to be approved here (94%) than the national average (90%).
