Pavement Licensing Policy Consultation

Have your say on the implementation of the Council’s draft Policy on Pavement Licensing.

Malvern Hills District Council is the authority responsible for the issuing of pavement licences under provisions contained in the Business and Planning Act 2020. 

The Business and Planning Act 2020 created a streamlined process to allow businesses to apply for a licence to place removable furniture over certain parts of the highway.

The licensing regime was originally intended to be in place on a temporary basis but has now been made permanent. In response, the Council has now prepared a draft Pavement Licensing Policy which has been approved by the Executive Committee for public consultation.

The Council is now carrying out a consultation exercise in relation to the agreed draft policy on pavement licensing. 

To have your say please complete the Pavement Licensing Policy Survey

The consultation survey will remain open for responses until 29th January 2025.
