A resident of Monument View - Clarification was requested on the planning application consultation process, notifications to residents and the ability for residents to comment upon the application. It was noted that residents will be notified directly around the site by the County, notices will be put up in noticeboards, library etc. All residents have the ability to comment individually in addition to the Parish Council through Staffordshire County Council website.
