  "bodyMd": "the City of Spearfish lists [**City Council Meeting**](https://spearfishsd.portal.civicclerk.com/event/47/overview) for Dec. 1, 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 17:30 on Dec. 1, 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 Regular Session Agenda 12/01/2025 · posted Nov. 26, 2025\n- Agenda Packet · City Council Regular Session Packet 12/01/2025 · posted Nov. 26, 2025\n- Minutes · City Council Regular Session Minutes 12/1/2025 · posted Dec. 4, 2025\n\n605Buzz does not summarise those documents.

Follow the link above to read them at the city's own page.\n\nThe city's agenda for this meeting lists 44 numbered items. 605Buzz reproduces 40 of them below, exactly as the city wrote them; the other 4 name a party or a location and are not reproduced here.\n\n- 1.

FYI - Lego set donation.\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/47/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).",
