Sunderland City Council

Planning appeal decisions, 2016–2026

Householder appeals

Across all years in the archive (2016–2026)

9 allowed and 43 dismissed (52 decided). That is 18.2 percentage points below the national average of 35.5%.

Only 4 Householder decisions in the last 12 months (we need 20 for a recent figure), so this covers all years.

Allowed ÷ (allowed + dismissed). Split decisions, withdrawn, invalid and undetermined appeals are left out. Based on completed records in the Appeal Scout archive, which runs a little behind today's date because decisions are added after publication.
