The City of Stow Council convened on June 26, 2025, at 8:38 PM for a regular meeting, with all council members present. The meeting commenced with a prayer and the Pledge of Allegiance led by Councilman Kyle Herman.

The council approved the minutes from the previous meeting held on June 12, 2025, without opposition. Mayor Provanek delivered his report, highlighting upcoming events including the Celebrate Stow Week and a new story walk initiative set for July 2, which will feature a ribbon-cutting ceremony before a concert. He also announced a community effort to collect hygiene products for local schools, encouraging residents to participate.

A significant topic discussed was the selection process for a new police chief. Councilman McPherson requested that a council member be included as a non-voting liaison on the selection committee to ensure transparency and communication throughout the process. The council expressed support for this request, suggesting Councilwoman Kelly Coffey as a suitable representative due to her commitment to law enforcement and community safety.

In other business, Councilman Herman moved to reconsider a previous resolution regarding a lot split approval for property on Fish Creek Road, indicating a desire to change his vote. This motion will require further discussion and a second to proceed.

The meeting concluded with no additional public comments, and a motion to adjourn was passed unanimously. The council's next steps include following up on the police chief selection process and preparing for the upcoming community events.
