Cherokee County commissioners approve minutes, payroll and adopt right-of-way resolution
Summary
At their Aug. 5 meeting the Cherokee County Board of Commissioners approved minutes, payroll and payables, and unanimously adopted Resolution 20-2024 regulating county right-of-way usage; several administrative items were also approved.
The Cherokee County Board of Commissioners on Aug. 5 approved routine board business and adopted a new county right-of-way usage policy.
Commissioners voted to approve minutes from July 29 and July 31 (each motion passed with Commissioner Cory Moates abstaining on both July vote approvals). The board approved payroll and payables as presented. Commissioner Cory Moates moved to adopt Resolution 20-2024, described in the minutes as "a resolution by the Cherokee County Board of Commissioners regulating county right-of-way usage," and Commissioner Lorie Johnson seconded; the resolution was adopted unanimously.
Why it matters: Resolution 20-2024 establishes the county's regulatory approach to use of county right-of-way, which can affect utilities, contractors and residents seeking encroachment permits. The board handled other standard financial approvals at the same session.
Votes and tallies at the meeting included recorded abstentions on the two minutes approvals (each recorded as yes 2, abstain 1) and unanimous approval on payroll, payables and Resolution 20-2024 (tally: yes 3).
