Cherokee County sets special election dates for Senate District 21 and District 1

The Cherokee County Board of Commissioners kicked off their regular meeting on June 3, 2025, with a swift ratification of the closure of an Executive Session, confirming no items were brought forth. The meeting quickly moved to an important announcement regarding upcoming elections.

Commissioners revealed that special election voting dates have been set for Senate District 21 and Board of Commissioners District 1. Voters will head to the polls on August 26, 2025, with details about polling locations and times available on flyers outside Cherokee Hall.

In a brief agenda, the board approved the minutes from their previous meeting on May 20, while postponing the approval of minutes from a special called meeting on May 23 due to a member's absence. This decision will be revisited at the next meeting scheduled for June 17.

The meeting concluded with a public hearing, marking a proactive approach to community engagement as the board continues to address local governance matters.
