Bill Summary
An Act relating to the Oklahoma Open Meeting Act; amending 25 O.S. 2021, Section 311, as amended by Section 1, Chapter 60, O.S.L. 2024 (25 O.S. Supp. 2025, Section 311), which relates to notices by public bodies; and prescribing procedures related to email distribution systems. SUBJECT: Oklahoma Open Meeting Act
AI Summary
This bill amends the Oklahoma Open Meeting Act, which governs how public bodies conduct their meetings to ensure transparency. Specifically, it modifies the requirements for public bodies regarding their email distribution systems for meeting notices. The key change allows public bodies to require individuals on these email lists to confirm their subscription every two years; if a person fails to confirm, the public body can remove them from the list, though individuals can re-subscribe later. This aims to keep email lists current and ensure that notices are sent to those who actively wish to receive them.
