Application progress
This application is under consideration - no decision has been issued yet. Plota predicted a decision around 7 Oct 2026; it is now day 387.
Planning committee
Decided by Thanet Planning Committee on 15 Jul 2026. The council has not yet issued its decision notice.
Approved
As officers recommended.
- Officers advised approval because 15% affordable housing, highway safety and water capacity were considered acceptable, with a viability review mechanism.
- KCC Highways and Southern Water raised no objection, and the submitted parking survey was accepted as showing sufficient capacity.
- The committee voted 9 to 1, with 1 abstention, to defer and delegate approval subject to a legal agreement and conditions.
