The Hoover City Council on Thursday, Oct. 2, approved Resolution No. 8606-25 appointing Robert Yeager as city treasurer and authorized the mayor to execute an agreement reflecting the appointment.
The appointment filled the vacancy created by the immediate resignation of Jennifer Cornett, who recommended Yeager serve as treasurer through Dec. 31, 2025. Council members moved and seconded the resolution and voted in favor; the clerk announced the motion carried.
Miss Corey opened the special called meeting and asked the clerk to call the roll; a quorum was present. Mr. Corley read the resolution aloud to the council as the single regular agenda item. After the reading, one council member moved approval of Resolution No. 8606-25 and another seconded. No public comments were recorded on the item. The council called for the question and voted; the presiding official announced, “The ayes have it, and the motion carries.”
Miss Corey read a resignation letter from Jennifer Cornett into the record; the letter stated, in part, “Please accept this letter as my formal resignation from the position of treasurer for the City of Hoover effective immediately. I wholeheartedly recommend Robert Yeager to be appointed to serve as treasurer for the city until 12/31/2025.” The council then approved the resolution naming Yeager and authorizing the mayor to sign the corresponding agreement.
Robert Yeager spoke briefly when asked if he had anything to add; his remarks were not expanded on in the meeting record. With the vote recorded and no further business, the council adjourned the special called meeting.
