Do you know who to contact if you spot an issue? We all have the responsibility to notify someone if we see something that needs repairing or could be dangerous but finding the right contact can be a challenge and make a huge difference to the speed of the issue being addressed.
As a general rule:
Contact the County Council at www.staffordshire.gov.uk to report any issues with highways (e.g. potholes), pavements or flood prevention.
East Staffordshire Borough Council has responsibility for planning matters, refuse collection and some recreational facilities such as Brook Hollows. They can be contacted on www.eaststaffsbc.gov.uk
The Parish Council maintains our play parks, open spaces, footpaths and more local amenities such as the planters on Burnside and benches around the village. They can be contacted on rollestonondovepc@outlook.com
All Councils have many more responsibilities and a full list can be found at https://rollestonondovepc.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Responsibilities-Leaflet.pdf
Remember – in an emergency always contact the emergency services by dialling 999.
If you spot it – report it. Together we can make a difference
