June 25 Council Meeting Canceled
The City Clerk’s office has canceled this week’s City Council meeting due to the lack of urgent agenda items. Council and the City Clerk came to this decision several hours after the External Affairs office sent the weekly City Hall News to The Inter-Mountain and scheduled it on our website (which has since been updated). We apologize in advance for any confusion.
The next City Council meetings are scheduled for July 9 and July 23, 2026. The slight schedule change is because of how certain holidays have landed on the calendar this year. Council will resume its regular schedule (meeting on the first and third Thursdays of the month) in August.
As always, you can keep track of committee, board, task force, and council meetings on our Agenda Center. You can set email alerts as well.
