Grass Cutting

The County Council will continue to cut grass verges mainly outside of the main settlements and of course the Borough Council and Stafford and Rural Homes retain responsibility for some other areas of the parish.
Details of the areas the Parish Council has now taken from the County Council are set out in the table and maps showing precisely the areas outlined are available to view at the parish office.
Recycling - A new improved waste collection service for households across the borough has been rolled out.
New Houses - Where Could They Go?
Stafford Borough Council is preparing a plan to establish where new housing development could be located in the Borough by 2026.
Each Council has been given a target number of houses which they must accommodate in their plans, but at this stage no decisions have been taken about where the new homes will be built.
To make these decisions they need to gather information on all potential areas where new houses could be built in the future.
Information on Making Comments and Submitting Further Information is on the website:
