A SCHEME giving residents the chance to shape the future of their village has taken a major step forward.
Plans to designate the parish of Forsbrook as a ‘Neighbourhood Area’ were approved by Staffordshire Moorlands District Council last week.
The decision gives community leaders the green light to draw up an over-arching plan that will set out the future of development in the area for the next 15 years.
Forsbrook parish council now wants residents to come forward and have their say on what they want to see in their village.
Parish clerk Dawn Plant said: “We’re really excited to hear the plan has been passed – it’s great news.
“The process is designed to give local councillors and residents more of a say about what goes on, in and around the village.
