Below is the City Council meeting schedule, providing residents and stakeholders with important dates and times to stay informed, participate, and engage in the City of Jackson’s legislative process.
The agenda serves as the official roadmap for our committee proceedings, ensuring that meetings remain focused, productive, and transparent. Each item listed has been carefully selected to address ongoing projects, legislative requirements, or community concerns. By outlining the order of business in advance, we provide both committee members and the general public the opportunity to prepare for informed discussion. Please note that while the agenda follows a set structure, the Chair reserves the right to adjust the flow of the meeting to better accommodate guest speakers or urgent city business.
Meeting minutes are the official permanent record of the committee’s actions, discussions, and decisions. Rather than providing a verbatim transcript of every word spoken, these documents focus on capturing the substance of the debate, the motions made, and the final votes cast. This ensures a clear historical account of “the why and the how” behind municipal recommendations. Once drafted, minutes are reviewed and formally approved by the committee at a subsequent meeting to ensure they accurately reflect the proceedings before being filed for public record.
In accordance with our commitment to open government, all agendas and minutes are made available to the public to ensure full transparency in the decision-making process. Residents are encouraged to review these documents to stay informed about the initiatives and policies currently under consideration. If you wish to speak on a specific agenda item or provide feedback on past minutes, please refer to our “Public Comment” guidelines located at the beginning of each meeting or contact the City Clerk’s office. Your engagement is vital to ensuring our records reflect the true intent and spirit of the community.
