Summer recess: Aug 3 – Sep 4, 2026. No council or committee meetings. Last chance to comment before recess: the Jul 21 Council meeting.
How the schedule works
1st & 3rd Tuesdays — Full City Council. 3:30 PM. The binding vote. This is where decisions become law.
2nd & 4th Tuesdays — Committee day. 5 committees meet back-to-back, 9:30 AM through 6 PM. This is where items are shaped and your comment carries the most weight.
Every Thursday — Rules & Legislation. 10:30 AM. The gatekeeper that decides what reaches the other committees.
