City Council Meetings

The Gilroy City Council convenes on the 1st and 3rd Monday of every month, hosting regular meetings. A comprehensive packet, inclusive of staff reports and additional documentation, is prepared for these meetings. The preliminary agenda for each regular meeting is posted online at least seven (7) days in advance. You can access the packet of supporting documents online, typically available the Thursday preceding the regular Monday meeting. Occasionally, the City Council organizes special meetings and workshops to deliberate on specific topics of interest.

Community participation is highly encouraged at the Gilroy City Council meetings. Attend in person at the Council Chambers located at 7351 Rosanna Street. Should a regular meeting coincide with a holiday, it will be rescheduled to the subsequent Monday. The only exceptions are the solitary regular meetings in July and December; these are rescheduled to the last Monday of July and the second Monday of December, respectively.

The minutes provided below are in draft form. Approved minutes from the Council and its advisory bodies can be accessed through the City's Laserfiche Web Portal.
