Ratify letter of support for Assembly Bill 817 - Open meetings: teleconferencing: subsidiary body.
End
PREVIOUS BOARD/BOARD COMMITTEE ACTIONS:
No previous action.
SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
AB 817 would provide a narrow exemption under the Ralph M. Brown Act for non-decision-making legislative bodies currently governed by Act, such as advisory bodies and commissions, to participate in two-way virtual teleconferencing without posting physical location of members. In addition, AB 817 would remove barriers to entry for appointed and elected office by allowing non-decision-making legislative bodies to participate virtually as long as they do not have the ability to take final action on legislation, regulations, contracts, licenses, permits, or other entitlements.
ALTERNATIVE ACTION/MOTION:
Do not ratify letter of opposition and support.
