Bill Summary
This bill provides that a person has 90 days, not the current 60 days, to file a complaint with the Iowa public information board after an alleged violation of Code chapter 21 (open meetings) or Code chapter 22 (open records) occurred or the complainant could have become aware of the alleged violation.
AI Summary
This Study Bill proposes to extend the timeframe for filing a complaint with the Iowa Public Information Board (IPIB) regarding alleged violations of Iowa's open meetings law (Code chapter 21) or open records law (Code chapter 22). Currently, individuals have 60 days to file such a complaint after a violation occurs or they become aware of it, but this bill would increase that period to 90 days, providing more time for citizens to report potential breaches of transparency in government proceedings and access to public documents.
