Dear Residents,
Welcome to our first issue of the Community Connection - The Official Magazine of Stow & Munroe Falls. You’re sure to love our new quarterly publication showcasing our amazing cities, our great schools, our thriving retail districts, our fascinating residents, our incredible parks and greenspaces, all of the outstanding things happening in our community and much more! We have many great initiatives happening in our City. Your voice and opinions are very important as we move forward. Please take a few moments to get involved. Here’s how:
Parks & Recreation Master Plan The City of Stow is undertaking a master plan process to establish priorities for the future of our parks, trails, recreation facilities, and programs and services. As part of the process, the community is invited to participate in an online survey that will be conducted by our consulting firm. Scan the QR code below to take you to the survey page. Everyone is encouraged to participate in filling it out. This will aid the City of Stow in taking a community-driven approach to making decisions that will enrich the future of our City and positively affect the quality of life we provide for our residents.
Connectivity Plan The City of Stow is seeking to build upon its existing bikeways and trails through the Stow Connectivity Plan – a Connecting Communities Planning Grant, and is in the process of developing a strategy to create the missing connections between these existing routes and the people that use them. The city will explore the potential of shareduse paths and side paths as the primary facilities for the city’s trail network. Scan the QR code below, and use the Interactive Feedback Map to provide your specific comments about transportation.
#YOUMATTER We all feel the exhaustion that continues to build as we are navigating these different times. Please visit our Mental Health Resources page by scanning the QR code below, if you or someone you know needs help, especially throughout the holidays. There is truly no way to show our gratitude and appreciation to all those that have worked tirelessly throughout the pandemic. We THANK YOU all! I pledge to continue my accessibility to our residents and businesses. Your ideas, input and feedback are so very beneficial in understanding the concerns of our community. I have the best interest of Stow at heart and I hope you do as well. Mayor John Pribonic
