  "bodyMd": "the City of Spearfish lists [**City Council Study Session**](https://spearfishsd.portal.civicclerk.com/event/1997/overview) for Nov. 12, 2025 on its public meeting portal.\n\nThe portal files this entry under the category City Council. That is the city's own classification, reproduced as published; 605Buzz does not sort these listings itself.\n\nThe portal gives the time as 16:15 on Nov. 12, 2025, printed exactly as published.\n\nThe portal marks that time UTC, and it is not: the city's own records contradict the mark, because the plain-English posting time the portal prints for this meeting's agenda states the same clock reading as the machine-readable field that claims to be UTC. The time above is therefore the local wall clock the city published, reproduced without conversion.\n\nThe portal is currently offering 3 documents for this entry, named here exactly as the city named them:\n\n- Agenda · City Council Study Session 11/12/2025 Agenda · posted Nov. 10, 2025\n- Agenda Packet · City Council Study Session Packet 11/12/2025 · posted Nov. 10, 2025\n- Minutes · City Council Study Session Minutes 11-12-2025 · posted Nov. 17, 2025\n\n605Buzz does not summarise those documents. Minutes are produced after a meeting rather than before one; what they say is not reproduced here. Follow the link above to read them at the city's own page.\n\nThe city's agenda for this meeting lists 9 numbered items, reproduced below exactly as the city wrote them:\n\n- 1. Approve Agenda\n- 2. Review City Council Agenda.\n- A. Review the City Council Agenda for 11/17/2025.\n- 3. Items for Discussion\n- A. Discussion on the Special Maintenance Fee for 2026 taxes payable in 2027.\n- B. Discussion and determination of election date for the City for implementation of HB1130 from the 2025 SD legislative session.\n- 4. Public Comment\n- 5. Departmental Discussion\n- 6. Adjournment\n\n605Buzz reproduces the numbered item lines from that file and nothing else. Lines the city labels Petitioner, Property Owner, Location or Staff Report are not reproduced here, and neither is a street address; the agenda packet is not read at all. Where an item names a person — an official presenting it, or a resident being appointed to something — that name is part of the item the city wrote, and it stands as written. The text is the plain-text rendering the city's own portal returns for that file. Nothing above is a summary, and an item on an agenda is something a body may consider rather than something it did.\n\nThis article records only that the city's portal lists this meeting. It is not a record of what any meeting decided, it does not state that a meeting took place, and no outcome, vote or decision is implied. Nothing in any agenda, packet or minutes document is summarised here.\n\nMeetings are cancelled, rescheduled and re-noticed, and the portal publishes no field for any of that. Where the city has said so, it says so inside the listing's own title, quoted above exactly as published — and where it has not, 605Buzz cannot report a cancellation the city has not stated, and does not infer one from a missing document. Check [the city's own page for this meeting](https://spearfishsd.portal.civicclerk.com/event/1997/overview) before relying on anything here.\n\nThis article was assembled from [the City of Spearfish's public agendas and minutes page](https://www.spearfish.gov/AgendaCenter).",
