At the Public Meeting at the Village Hall on 5th of January, Mr Cash revealed that because the planning application had not been determined within 2 months of submission, Driveme have excercised their right to request the matter is settled by public enquiry.

This means that the issue will no longer be decided by Stafford Borough Council, it will be decided by an independent inspector at the Planning Inspectorate in Bristol

The inquiry date has not yet been fixed, however it is thought that it will be around mid 2009
