Developers, builders and city staff who won't have to wait on code amendments when state specs change.
Denial of the Watermill Lane request could leave that owner without a fence option until the ditch project wraps up; approval could change the look of the shared corridor.

Special Planning Commission - Nov 12, 2026
Perrysburg is working through a full update of its zoning code — the rules that govern what can be built where, from home additions to new developments. The draft review will shape what development looks like in the city for years to come.
Public Hearing - Oct 6, 2026
Perrysburg wants to modernize how laboratory, research, and testing businesses fit into the zoning code before the full rewrite is finished. This could open the door for new research businesses to locate in town — with questions about buffer zones and resident quality of life still to be worked out.
Board of Zoning Appeals - Jun 8, 2026
Three of the five applications ask for taller fences than the four-foot front-yard limit allows, on lots with two front yards. One was recommended for denial over fears a whole corridor of neighbors could follow suit; another was recommended for approval to screen a shed the Board already OK'd.
Service Committee - May 11, 2026
City staff floated moving detailed technical specs out of the zoning code into a separate Design Spec Book, which would be far easier to update as Ohio Revised Code standards change. It's early-stage — just an FYI for now.
