Sedona Mayor Scott Jablow Resigns Effective Today

The move follows a council censure over alleged overreach after weeks of friction with the police chief.

Overview

  • Jablow’s resignation takes effect at 5 p.m. MST on Tuesday, concluding his term that began in 2022.
  • Vice Mayor Holli Ploog immediately serves as acting mayor, and the council will appoint an interim member to serve through November 2026.
  • Jablow said controversies influenced his decision and alleged council members sought to silence him, though he did not share specifics.
