Cheraw council approves resolution to revamp loss-control and workplace-safety program
Summary
Council adopted Resolution 09-20-25 to reaffirm the town’s commitment to revamp its loss-control program and improve workplace safety, with a staff member ("Brian") assigned to lead implementation. The resolution passed by voice vote and council later reported no action taken in executive session on related contractual matters.
Cheraw, S.C. — The Cheraw Town Council voted on Nov. 12 to approve Resolution 09-20-25, a nonbinding action affirming the town’s commitment to strengthen its loss-control and workplace-safety program.
A staff member told the council the resolution is intended to reinvigorate existing programs and get them "functioning correctly," noting that with "Brian here" the town will take the opportunity to launch the revamped efforts. "We're going to take this opportunity to really get them underway and get them functioning correctly so this resolution is just a commitment to that effect that we're creating a safe work environment," the staff member said.
Council approved the resolution by voice vote; the transcript does not include a roll-call tally. The meeting then moved to several administrative items and into executive session to discuss contractual matters related to the sale of land on Front Street, acquisition of a storm-water easement, and matters related to the municipal airport. The council voted to enter executive session and later reconvened, with the chair stating that no action was taken during executive session.
The resolution itself reaffirms the town’s intent to prioritize accident prevention and property-protection measures and to assign staff responsibility for program implementation; the transcript identifies a staff lead by given name but does not provide job title or additional implementation milestones. For the adopted resolution’s full text and any implementation timeline or budgetary implications, consult the town clerk's office.
