Decision outlook
Plota predicted a decision around 9 Oct 2026; it is now day 72.
Day 72, past the statutory target. 81% of full applications in Preston are decided within thirteen weeks, which runs to 28 Oct 2026; extensions of time are common, and the council need not decide on the day. Last seen undecided on 24 Aug 2026.
Plota live figures for full applications decided across the UK in the last twelve months, from validation; too few recent full applications in Preston to go on. Preston decision record →
