Kirksville publishes Council meeting information, agendas, study-session materials, minutes and video. An agenda shows what may happen; the meeting and final record show what actually happened.
Kirksville's Planning & Zoning Commission reviews planning and zoning matters, conducts public hearings in applicable processes and makes recommendations to City Council. It does not simply function as the final approval authority for every zoning decision.
Kirksville uses citizen boards and commissions for subjects including planning, parks, transportation, housing, historic preservation and watershed management. Vacancies are advertised and appointments are approved by City Council.
Kirksville's codified ordinances are available through MuniCode, but newly adopted ordinances may appear in Council records before the next code supplement. Use the code, meeting records and City Clerk together when timing matters.
