How these numbers are computed

  • Development applications are counted directly from the development application register over the trailing 12 months, grouped by their current canonical status. The full list is on the applications page.
  • Observed decision timeline is the median time we have directly watched applications spend between stages, measured from our own observation clock rather than the council's published lodgement and determination dates (which the public record sets only after acceptance and so understate the real wait). It starts small and accrues as we observe more applications change stage; the sample size for each step is always shown alongside it.
