Interested in learning about future plans for our city parks and public spaces?
A panel comprised of city officials and the Arts Commission chair will discuss efforts to develop public art projects that can give Stow its own unique identity, enhance public spaces and bolster economic development.
"Creative Place Making" is the featured topic at the Stow Sunshine Project meeting on Monday, May 20 at 7 pm at the Stow Safety Center community room. Panel members will include Stow Law Director Drew Reilly, Stow Planning Director Zack Cowan, Director of Parks & Recreation Linda Nahrstedt and Arts Commission Chair Leila Griffiths.
Sustainability Proposal Needs Resident Support
Also on the meeting agenda is discussion of a proposal by Council At-Large Kyle Herman to have Stow become a Power a Clean Future Ohio community, which would provide the administration with free consulting and resources on economical clean energy initiatives.
