The parks system is willing to donate the building – but only if it’s moved by Dec. 1.

The Stow City Council meeting scheduled for Feb. 23 begins at 7 p.m. at City Hall. Here are five things to take note of before the meeting: 1. Residential Rezoning: Stow resident Paul Zuravel is requesting that a section of eight plots at Graham Road and Leewood Road be rezoned from R-1 to R-2.
