Where the data comes from

Governing body

  • Council meets on the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays at 7:00 PM with work sessions on the Mondays before, in Council Chamber (per the Town's Mayor and Council page).
  • Mayor Kelly Burk; Vice Mayor Todd Cimino-Johnson; Council Members Zach Cummings, Nicholas Krukowski, Kari Nacy, Neil Steinberg and Patrick Wilt. The Town's page lists terms ending 12/31/2026 for the Mayor, Vice Mayor, Steinberg and Wilt and in 2028 for the others, but the same page says the next Council elections are November 7, 2028; that conflict is unverified and election results were not checked.
  • Interim Town Manager Keith Markel; Assistant Town Managers Owen Snyder (Finance, HR and IT) and Kate Trask; Clerk of Council Eileen Boeing; Deputy Clerk Lyndon Gonzalez; Public Information Officer Kara Rodriguez and Assistant PIO Leah Kosin; Andre Medina (Digital Content and Website); Deb Moran (Sustainability); Amy Cornell-Titcomb (Emergency Management and Security).
  • Named in agendas with titles not confirmed: Tamara Keesecker, James David, Chris Spera.
  • Commission chairs named in agendas: Anthony Cimino-Johnson (Performing Arts), Jeanette Ward (Public Art), Phil Marshall (Tree).
  • Boards and commissions: Airport, Board of Architectural Review, Board of Zoning Appeals, Public Art, Diversity, Economic Development, Environmental Advisory, Parks and Recreation, Performing Arts, Planning Commission, Police-Directed Tow Advisory, Residential Traffic, Technology and Communications, Thomas Balch Library, Tree and Trespass Tow Advisory.

Data quality notes

  • Minutes and packets are in Laserfiche, which needs JavaScript and could not be read, so no votes or outcomes are recorded.
  • Agendas were read for the Town Council, Council work sessions and the Planning Commission only (item titles). Agendas for the Board of Architectural Review and Board of Zoning Appeals are posted but were not read; other commissions post none on Granicus.
  • The Granicus archive listed 51 meetings from 2026-09-01; some Granicus dates are upload dates rather than meeting dates (for example, the Commission on Public Art meeting of November 2 is listed November 10). Where a title gives the meeting date, the page uses it.
  • Recordings were not watched or transcribed. Test recordings in the archive are not built.
  • The Town Attorney, department heads, the police chief, and members of boards and commissions were not collected; some staff titles are unconfirmed.
  • The Town Council meeting of November 24 and the November 23 work session come from the Town calendar. The Board of Zoning Appeals meeting of November 17 is shown as cancelled and has no page.
  • Meeting pages begin with 2026-09-01.
