Where the data comes from
- City website: https://www.auroragov.org
- Agendas and meeting calendar: https://www.auroragov.org/packets
- Meeting video: Official YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/user/theaurorachannel (policy committees, P&Z, DDA). Full council meetings are at AuroraTV https://www.auroratv.org/series/city-council-meetings (not checked/none on YouTube list). Policy-committee titles give only the month, so meeting date left blank.
- Officials, agendas and video lists were collected from these official sources on 2026-10-22; meeting content comes from the transcripts as they are processed.
