Over 100 residents packed a Hooper City Council meeting to address accusations that Mayor Sheri Bingham has been stonewalling the council. Council members voiced concerns about the mayor’s actions, including firing the city’s attorneys without consulting them. The council then proposed an ordinance to reduce the mayor’s power to purely ceremonial duties. However, after a heated discussion, the council ultimately decided to table the ordinance for further discussion. Residents expressed hope that the issues could be resolved, acknowledging a division in the community but believing it could be worked through. The council plans to have a closed-door meeting with the mayor to address the situation and will revisit the ordinance in three months. The meeting highlighted tensions within the city and the desire for unity and collaboration among residents and local government officials. Despite the challenges, there is optimism that the issues can be resolved through dialogue and cooperation. The residents shared a common love for Hooper and a desire to see the community thrive.
