1. Units at a Cherokee County fire station have been relocated after a car crash left the station without power on Sunday.

2. Cherokee County has reached a growth boundary agreement with the city of Holly Springs. A Growth Boundary Agreement defines and limits future growth for a city, although it is not legally binding. Commission Chairman Harry Johnston said, “This agreement marks a new era of cooperation between Cherokee County and the city of Holly Springs, and now with all the cities of the county. Instead of battling over individual annexation and development decisions, we’re now all committed to [working] together to manage our overall growth in a way that keeps and continues to make Cherokee County the best place in the world to live!” (Cherokee County News)
3. The Cherokee County School District will host its fifth annual Support Staff Employees of the Year Awards on Dec. 8.
