Sedona Mayor Scott Jablow resigns after censure

Sedona Mayor Scott Jablow resigned from office Tuesday following a censure by the city council.

The censure centered on allegations that Jablow acted beyond his authority, created a hostile work environment and pressured staff to implement an automatic license plate reader program without discussion, which they've since killed.

The city ended that program earlier this month.

Jablow was elected in 2022. He initially refused to resign and said voters could organize a recall election if they wanted him out.

The Red Rock News reports Vice Mayor Holli Ploog will take the role of acting mayor until the council can vote on an interim replacement next month.
