Introduction

The first thing you need on your agenda is a description of who, what, when, and where.

An agenda needs to have the name of the assembly that is meeting. For neighborhood councils, that is going to be a neighborhood council committee or governing board.

The agenda should indicate if the meeting is a regular meeting or a special meeting.

The agenda also needs to say when and where the meeting is being held so that people are able to attend. On your agendas, list the date of the meeting (with the year) and the scheduled start time.

If your meeting is being held in person, include the full address in the agenda. If your meeting is being held online, include everything people need to be able to attend.
