Oldham is slower than most councils at deciding householder applications, ranking #257 out of 296. The council extends the time limit on 59% 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 (92%) than the national average (90%).
