Top issues during term (20)(Environment)
Water rate increase (Ordinance 2026-137)
Typical bills would rise about $2.76 per month under the Feldman plan; Coffey's rejected alternative would have raised bills roughly 20% over two years.
Municipal electrification feasibility study
A pilot program would cost money up front but could lower long-term fuel and maintenance costs.
Food waste reduction and composting
The city passed on a $75,000 grant opportunity this cycle, but the October event is low-cost with community partners.
Rooftop solar at city buildings
$200,000 total in capital budget requests for the solar project.
Deer management
Estimated solutions run into the tens of thousands of dollars.
EV fast-charging gap in Stow
Potential future zoning requirements could add wiring costs for new developments, but public-private partnerships could shift charger costs off taxpayers.
Greenhouse gas inventory data delays
Free tree canopy assessment
Described as free to the city, though members want to verify what's included.
Solar scam warnings and group solar buying
Group buying can lower solar costs for residents, especially with no federal solar tax credit currently available.
Accessible Ohio partnership opportunity
Costs weren't specified — rollout mats were described as potentially expensive, and smaller fixes like relocating dispensers were called relatively manageable.
Fall tree planting and replanting challenges
The fee was described as roughly $150 for a resident-requested tree at a specific site.
Materials management and vendor solicitations
Could affect the cost and pool of bidders on city construction and service contracts.
Cost Share Program participation lagging
Residents can get a street tree planted for a $125 cost share, with the city covering the remainder.
Recycling costs and education
Stow pays over $7,000 monthly for cardboard recycling.
Possible conservation projects with Western Reserve Conservancy
Walk-and-talk with council and stakeholders
Leaded aviation fuel at Stow Municipal Airport
Residents can test their own soil for about $30 through Penn State; the city is providing free loaner probes.
Mulching door-hanger campaign
Printing roughly 500 door hangers — with 1,000 costing nearly the same, so pricing will be compared.
EarthFest tree giveaway effectiveness
The city is purchasing 100 white oaks plus about 300 school seedlings from its existing tree budget.
Community energy pilot program (HB303)
Participants could see 5–20% savings on electric bills; no direct city spending.
