Crank Up Democracy with a Town Hall on Woodstock’s Future!

Woodstock is growing fast—and with that growth come big questions about traffic, housing, safety, and how our city makes decisions.

Join Martha Jean Schindler (candidate for Mayor), Gopi Govindaraj (candidate for City Council, Ward 5), and Trent Council (candidate for City Council, Ward 1) for a town hall that puts the mic in your hands.

This isn’t a scripted lecture. It’s a chance to ask real questions, demand real answers, and help set the agenda for where Woodstock goes from here.

📅 Schedule

6:00–6:30 PM | Meet & Greet Grab a seat, shake hands, and talk with Martha Jean, Gopi, Trent—and your neighbors.

6:30–7:30 PM | Q&A with the Candidates Traffic snarls, skyrocketing housing costs, transparency at City Hall—ask the tough questions and hear where your candidates stand.

7:30-8:00 PM | Wrap-Up Conversations Stay to connect one-on-one and keep the conversation going.

Woodstock is at a crossroads—literally and figuratively. Between highway gridlock, an unmet demand for middle-income housing, and development decisions that often leave residents out of the loop, the choices we make now will shape our hometown for decades.

This town hall is about turning up the volume on democracy. Bring your questions, your stories, and your vision for Woodstock’s future.
