Hillsborough City Council Calls October 26 Special Meeting: Agenda Packet and Participation Information

HILLSBOROUGH, San Mateo County — October 25, 2026. Hillsborough has published a special City Council meeting notice and agenda packet for Monday, October 26, according to the town’s official meeting archive. The municipal Agenda Center shows that both the special meeting agenda and accompanying packet were posted Thursday, October 22.

Why the “special meeting” designation matters

A special meeting is called outside the town’s usual regular Council schedule and should be treated as a separate notice. Residents should consult the actual October 26 special meeting agenda and packet for the start time, location, Zoom connection, subjects under consideration and public-comment rules. A record showing that an agenda was posted does not establish that a proposal was approved.

What is the normal Council schedule?

Hillsborough says regular Council meetings are generally held at 6 p.m. on the second Monday of each month in Town Hall Council Chambers, 1600 Floribunda Avenue, with online attendance available through Zoom. The October 12 regular meeting already has its own agenda and packet in the archive. The October 26 special session should not automatically be assumed to have the same start time as a regular meeting.

How residents can follow a decision

The town’s Agenda Center provides public access to staff reports and minutes for Council, boards and committees. Hillsborough explains that Council agenda packet PDFs include bookmarks for individual items, which can be opened in the browser’s document outline. Meeting videos, received comments and supplemental materials are listed separately in the municipal navigation.

After a public meeting, residents should compare staff recommendations with the later adopted action minutes or video. The town offers Notify Me alerts for future agenda postings and amendments, which can help residents avoid missing a special meeting.

Open the Hillsborough official Agenda Center and the town website for current service and council contacts. More local information is available at Hillsborough News.
