Consultation on
Draft Pavement Licence Policy 2026 - 2029
Business and Planning Act 2020
Swale Borough Council is proposing to adopt a Policy in relation to its licensing responsibilities regarding Pavement Licences under the Business and Planning Act 2020.
The provision of a policy aims to provide residents, applicants and other agencies with a benchmark of the licensing authority’s expectations and will assist them in understanding statutory requirements.
The Council has prepared a draft Policy and now wishes to carry out consultation on this document with relevant parties and the general public.
The draft Pavement Licence policy can be viewed at www.swale.gov.uk/consultations or a hard copy can be posted upon request.
The Council is keen to receive comments on the draft document, which will be considered before the finalised Policy is adopted.
If you would like to make any comments on the draft Policy, you can email them to: licensing@swale.gov.uk
Alternatively, comments can be submitted in writing to:
Swale Borough Council, Licensing Section, Swale House, East Street, Sittingbourne, Kent ME10 3HT
This consultation will remain open until: 1st October 2026
