On Zoom. The meeting link is posted below. Our guest speaker at the meeting will be Chip Rowe who is a reporter with the Highlands Current newspaper located in the Hudson Valley area of New York. Mr. Rowe has written some great articles about open government issues in the Putnam County area of NY.

We released our latest report regarding Villages, which determined that 75% of the 20 villages reviewed are violating the Open Meetings Law by not posting their meeting documents online prior to their meeting. 35% did not post a meeting agenda or meeting minutes. Our report has received great media coverage across the state.

The week of March 15th is Sunshine Week, where the importance of a free press and open government are celebrated. We will be hosting a press conference with NY Assemblymember Amy Paulin who has introduced legislation to amend the Open Meetings Law to require the posting of meeting minutes and to strengthen the requirement to post meeting documents online.
