Rustic Diamond — Site Plan Modification and Setback Variance
Stow
Description
The owners want to keep a cabin in its existing spot with a 0-foot setback where 8 feet is required, after swapping land with the city and signing an easement with a neighbor whose property the cabin encroaches on.
Impact summary
The cabin stays put — barely affecting anyone, since the neighboring land is a sewer easement and wildlife preserve that can't be developed, and the adjacent owner has signed off.

Planning Commission (Regular) - Apr 28, 2026
The Cheatwoods asked to keep their cabin sitting right on the property line at their Rustic Diamond wedding/event property, instead of moving it as originally promised. With a land swap done and the neighbor's easement signed, the commission said yes, 4-1.
