What is the process for deck approval?
All decks and exterior structures require approval from the Design Review Committee. Decks must be constructed of wolmanized wood or other professional product. A clear preservative finish is recommended for decks constructed of wood. The style of the deck will be dependent upon the style of your home and the surrounding land terrain. The supporting structures of the deck must be anchored in concrete. All utility meters must be accessible. You also need to check with the City of Stow for any additional requirements at (330) 689-2729.
