Cherokee Village council meets informally after no quorum; no official votes
Summary
No quorum at the Jan. 15 meeting left the City Council unable to take formal actions. Council members and residents discussed a waste collection contract, an ADU ordinance referral to P&Z, abandoned-property complaints and permit questions before adjourning.
The Cherokee Village City Council convened for an informal session on Thursday, Jan. 15, 2026, after City Clerk Penny Trumpy’s roll call showed five members absent and the council lacked a quorum. Mayor Rose said no official decisions could be made and the meeting proceeded as an open discussion.
During the hour-long meeting, representatives present to discuss a Waste Connections contract answered council questions, a draft ordinance on accessory dwelling units (ADUs) was reported as submitted to the city attorney for review, and residents raised concerns about abandoned properties and a potential dwelling in a shed. Council Member Martin moved to adjourn at 7:10 p.m.; the motion was seconded by Council Member Harrison and the informal session ended without formal votes.
