Local residents are sending in their comments to the council, which is good to see. Those who have asked have received good advice from local councillor Jean Swanson, as well as former local councillor Amanda Taylor, and support has been offered by the ward’s newest councillor, Sue Birtles. The petition for the Development Control Forum has been completed and submitted, and a couple of residents have offered to leaflet all the neighbourhood with details about the proposal, something the Council should have had to do from the outset. There still does not appear to be any notification of a planning application on the EF Language School itself.
