If you have a specific use in mind for land near Nellie, look at the Coshocton zoning map before anything else: the zoning district decides setbacks, lot size and uses. In this Coshocton guide: who controls zoning for a given parcel, matching a lot to its zoning district, and when a variance or rezoning comes up.
Reading the Coshocton zoning map for one lot
