The Board of Aldermen meets on the Second Tuesday of each month at 6:00 p.m., with a pre-agenda meeting the Thursday prior at 5:30 p.m. The primary purpose of the pre-agenda meeting is to review the agenda for the upcoming regular meeting, set the consent agenda, hold public hearings, and receive other presentations. Regular meetings focus on action items, departmental reports, and other business. Both meetings are held in the Hilda B. Palmer Board Room in Town Hall located at 460 South Salisbury Avenue. A printed copy of the entire agenda packet is available in the H. B. Palmer Board Room for public use. Please find meeting agendas, agenda packets, and minutes in the table below. Agenda packets include all information of public record that is provided to board members during meetings. Adopted minutes in the table below belong to the Spencer Board of Aldermen and include all information of public record at the time of their adoption.

Signing Up to Speak During Public Comment Periods & Public Hearings

The public comment period is included in the regular meeting agenda to allow input to the Board of Aldermen from any citizen who wishes to address the Board without requesting to be on the agenda. Those who wish to address the Board of Aldermen must provide their name, address, and topic to be addressed. The Board will listen and may or may not respond at their discretion or may decide to place a topic on a future agenda.

All persons who wish to speak must sign up for the public comment period unless they wish to speak during a public hearing, in which case they must sign up for the public hearing. A public comment sign-up sheet will be provided at every regular meeting, and each public hearing will have a sign-up sheet. All sign-up sheets will be placed on the podium at the front of the Hilda B. Palmer Board Room prior to the start of the meeting and will be given to the mayor one (1) minute prior to the start of the meeting. All speakers are limited to three (3) minutes.
