Suburban Improvement District  [S.I.D.]

John A. Cooper established Cherokee Village in 1954.  In 1969, Cooper was instrumental in forming the Cherokee Village Suburban Improvement District to provide fire security protection service, to provide, operate and maintain recreational facilities and to maintain the area's streets and roads.  Empowered under the laws of the state of Arkansas, the District's Board of Commissioners assessed annual levies against property parcels to ensure the ability of the District to meet its maintenance obligations.  The Board is comprised of three Cherokee Village residents who serve a lifetime appointment without compensation.  They hire a property services manager, office staff and a golf course manager to implement regulations directed by the laws that established the District.
