After you report a problem to Gravesham Council, the actions taken will depend on the nature of your complaint. Here’s a breakdown of the process for formal complaints and specific types of issues like planning or noise complaints:
| Stage | Acknowledgment Time | Investigation Time | Further Actions |
|---|---|---|---|
| Formal Complaints | 5 working days | 10 working days for Stage One, 20 working days for Stage Two | If unresolved, a review can be requested. |
| Planning Complaints | 5 working days | Usually within 10 days | Assigned to an officer for investigation; may involve site visits and discussions for resolution. |
| Noise Complaints | 5 working days | Varies; depending on evidence, could involve monitoring and may lead to formal action | Possible warning letters or court action if necessary. |
For any formal complaint, you'll receive an acknowledgment within five working days, and the council aims to respond fully based on the investigation results. If the issue persists in cases of planning and noise, there may be additional steps involving warnings or investigations.
