Cheraw Council agenda takes up abandoned-building certification, property sale

The Cheraw Town Council is scheduled to consider a resolution certifying buildings at 801-861 Chesterfield Highway as abandoned, and a second reading of an ordinance authorizing the sale of real property identified as Property T, according to the agenda for its October 13, 2026 meeting.

No minutes have been published for any of the three meetings covered in this roundup. Every item below comes from a published agenda, so none of it should be read as a final decision, a vote tally, or a completed action. Where the agendas list no dollar amounts or vote counts, none are reported here.

Abandoned buildings on Chesterfield Highway

Resolution 2027-02 would certify buildings at 801-861 Chesterfield Highway as abandoned. The agenda does not state what would follow certification, and no cost figure is attached to the item.

Sale of real property

Ordinance 2026-16, authorizing the sale of real property identified as Property T, is listed for a second reading. A second reading is a procedural step; the agenda does not name a buyer, a price, or terms.

Sewer connection request

The council is also listed to review a request to approve a sewer connection at 924 State Road.

Police chief swearing-in

The agenda includes the swearing in of Police Chief James Henderson.

Coming up

The list of upcoming meetings supplied for the next 14 days is empty, so there are no future meetings to flag from this data. Readers should check the Town of Cheraw's official agenda postings for scheduling, and the published agendas and minutes remain the authoritative record for each item described above.

What is not known yet

Because minutes have not been published for the October 5, October 6, and October 13 meetings, this roundup cannot report whether any item passed, failed, was tabled, or was withdrawn. Absence of an outcome here does not mean an item was dropped. The next available record will be the published minutes for each body.

The action came at a special meeting, according to official minutes. A first reading is not final adoption. A second reading of the same ordinance is listed on the council's Oct. 13 agenda.

Abandoned buildings, sewer connection before council today
