Bill > H0611

This bill amends existing Idaho law to revise provisions regarding open meeting notices and agendas. The key changes include: 1. Requiring public agencies to post meeting notices and agendas electronically if they maintain an online presence through a website or social media. 2. Allowing public agencies that hold regular meetings at least once per month to satisfy the meeting notice requirement by posting an annual schedule of regular meetings. 3. Clarifying the procedures for amending meeting agendas, including requiring that any agenda item added after the start of a meeting must be identified as an "action item" and that final action cannot be taken on such an item unless an emergency is declared. 4. Requiring the declaration and justification for any emergency agenda amendment to be reflected in the meeting minutes.
