Meeting previews, agenda updates, and recaps for the City of Woodstock and Planning Commission.
Woodstock’s City Council and Planning Commission meetings move through three public documents, each released at a different point in the process. Agendas are posted in the days before a meeting and lay out what the board plans to discuss. Packets follow with the staff reports, maps, and background materials behind each item. Minutesare the official record of what was actually said and decided — voted on and released at the following meeting. We publish a story at each stage so you can follow a decision from proposal to outcome without digging through the PDFs.
