• Agendas and minutes: the city's Legistar calendar, https://hampton.legistar.com/Calendar.aspx. Agenda and minutes PDFs are under https://legistar.granicus.com/hampton/meetings/. The city's summary-style minutes are called a "Notice of Action" and are marked Draft until Council approves them.
• Meeting video: the city's Granicus archive, https://hampton.granicus.com/ViewPublisher.php?view_id=2 (City Council) and view_id=8 (Planning Commission). Video is not on YouTube.
• Boards and commissions directory: https://www.hampton.gov/2999/Boards-and-Commissions
• Clerk of Council: Katherine K. Glass

Data quality notes

• Most Council minutes are draft Notices of Action and have not been approved. The 2026-09-23 through 2026-10-28 sessions are due for approval on the 2026-11-12 consent agenda.
• No minutes are posted for the Planning Commission meetings of 2026-09-17 and 2026-10-22.
• Date discrepancy: the October Planning Commission meeting is 2026-10-22 on Legistar and the agenda, but the Granicus video is titled 10/15/26. Unresolved.
• The 2026-11-12 sessions (Special, Work and Legislative) have agendas only; no minutes or video yet.
• The Special Session of 2026-12-09 is cancelled and has no page. No regular December sessions or Planning Commission meetings were posted as of 2026-11-12.
• Meeting pages begin with 2026-09-09 (video pages only for the two sessions of that day). The 2026-10-28 10:30 AM Special Session and the 2026-09-02 Special Session were cancelled.
• The city's staff directory was scraped with some names misaligned from titles, so department heads and constitutional officers from it are not listed. Only names confirmed in agendas and minutes have pages.
