Bill > HB5599

This bill amends the Open Meetings Act to provide for electronic hearings of the Tax Tribunal, even after the expiration of the temporary provisions allowing for electronic meetings of public bodies during the COVID-19 pandemic. The bill removes the requirement that electronic meetings only be permitted in circumstances requiring accommodation of absent members, such as military duty or medical conditions, for Tax Tribunal proceedings under sections 26, 34, or 62 of the Tax Tribunal Act. This bill is tied to HB 5598, which likely contains related provisions.
