Reference is to the bill as introduced.
Amend the bill, as and if amended, Section 30-40-80(a), as contained in SECTION 1, by deleting the subsection in its entirety and inserting:
/ (a) All public bodies,
except as provided in subsections (b) and (c) of this section,
must give written public notice of their regular meetings at the
beginning of each calendar year. The notice must include the
dates, times, and places of such meetings. Agenda, if
any, for regularly scheduled or special meetings
must be posted on a bulletin board in a publicly accessible
place at the office or meeting place of the public body
and on a public website maintained by the public body, if
any, at least twenty-four hours prior to such meetings. All
public bodies must post on such bulletin board and website,
if any, public notice for any called, special, or
rescheduled meetings. Such notice must be posted as early as is
practicable but not later than twenty-four hours before the
meeting. Once an agenda for a regular, called, special, or
rescheduled meeting is posted pursuant to this subsection, no
items may be added to the agenda without an additional
twenty-four hours notice to the public, which must be made in
the same manner as the original posting. After the meeting
begins, an item, upon which action can be taken, only may be
added to the agenda by a two-thirds vote of the members present
and voting, who must make a finding that an emergency exists if
the item is not added to the agenda. The notice must
include the agenda, date, time, and place of the meeting. This
requirement does not apply to emergency meetings of public
bodies.
