Information from Stoke-on-Trent City Council
Statement of Community Involvement 2025: have your say
Stoke-on-Trent City Council is currently in the process of updating the ‘Statement of Community Involvement’, which formally sets out how the Council will engage with individuals and organisations when preparing local planning policy documents, and in the planning application decision-making process.
The document – which was previously updated in 2021 – is being reviewed in line with legislation, national planning policy and best practice guidance.
As part of the review process, there is a public consultation, and City Council is inviting people to have their say on the draft Stoke-on-Trent Statement of Community Involvement 2025.
This consultation process is essential to help improve understanding and openness of the planning process, which impacts everybody who lives in, works in, or visits our city and ensure that there is effective engagement on planning matters which affect our local communities.
The consultation will close on Sunday 18th May 2025.
