Bill Summary
An Act to require that corrected information be posted at least twenty-four hours prior to a meeting of a political subdivision.
AI Summary
This bill amends existing South Dakota law to require that if a political subdivision, which refers to local government entities like cities or counties, posts a proposed agenda or financial report for a meeting and that document contains a "material error" – meaning an error that could mislead the public about the meeting's details or what will be voted on – then an updated version with the corrected information must be posted at least twenty-four hours before the meeting begins, both at the political subdivision's main office and on its website if one exists. This change aims to ensure the public has accurate information about local government meetings well in advance.
