SBC Consent Street Trading Procedural Guidance 2024

The power to grant a street trading consent is discretionary, and the Council may refuse to grant a street trading consent if they deem it appropriate to do so. Such decisions will be made in accordance with the Council's scheme of delegation.

If an application is refused the applicant will be informed of the reason for the refusal within 21 days of the decision being made.

Failure to comply with the conditions of the consent may result in the revocation or refusal to renew, a consent. In certain circumstances, formal action such as prosecution may be the most appropriate course of action. If a consent is revoked the holder will be informed of the reason for the revocation within 21 days of the decision being made.
