Bill > A10645

This bill requires the Office of Information Technology Services (OITS) to create a mobile application and website to publish details about every public meeting held by state or local public bodies, as defined by Article 7 of the Public Officers Law, which generally refers to governmental bodies that conduct public business. These public bodies will be mandated to report meeting information, including the date, time, location (with videoconferencing links), and a summary of the meeting's purpose, to OITS for publication on the new platform. This initiative aims to increase transparency and accessibility of information regarding government meetings.
