Summary
At its meeting, the City of Greer Council appointed Isaac Johnson Jr. as municipal judge, approved three second‑reading ordinances and adopted routine safety and workplace resolutions; council also approved accepting subdivision streets into the city system.
Greer City Council moved through a slate of routine but consequential measures Tuesday, appointing a new municipal judge, approving three ordinances on second and final reading, and adopting a series of administrative resolutions.
Isaac Johnson Jr. was nominated by council and, after a second, confirmed to replace Judge Hank Mims, whose term expires June 30, 2026. Council members recorded their votes during a roll call.
On ordinances, the council approved Ordinance 1‑2026, authorizing an extension of a lease with Snow Street Holdings LLC; Ordinance 2‑2026, conveying interests in certain city real property; and Ordinance 3‑2026, rezoning a parcel owned by LB Premier LLC on Cary Avenue from Suburban Neighborhood (SN) to Traditional Neighborhood (TN). Staff told council there were no substantive changes since first reading and no community comments on those items.
Council also adopted Resolution 2‑2026, reaffirming the city's annual safety statement, and Resolution 3‑2026 to update the city's blood‑borne pathogen standard to align with Occupational Safety and Health Administration rules. Both measures were presented as routine, annual actions by staff.
In infrastructure business, the council approved Resolution 5‑2026 to accept Kenbrace Court and Glenbit Lane in the Dillard Creek Village subdivision into the city street system for maintenance and ownership; staff reported all utilities and 112 townhomes are complete and that a third subdivision road will remain private.
Council adjourned after completing the published agenda and confirmed there would be no executive session.
What's next: Most items adopted were routine or cleared on second reading; staff will execute the transition for the municipal-court appointment and proceed with administrative steps to accept the newly dedicated streets.
