Bill > SB16

This bill amends existing state laws to clarify how public records and open meetings laws apply to interscholastic athletic associations, which are defined as nonprofit organizations that coordinate athletic events for high school students. Specifically, it allows these associations to elect to be governed by these laws, meaning their meetings and records would generally be open to the public, similar to other governmental bodies. However, the bill also creates exceptions, allowing these associations to withhold records concerning individual referees and individual student athletes, protecting their privacy. Furthermore, it mandates that school districts can only be members of such athletic associations if the association agrees to be governed by these public access laws.
