The town has no IT department, and complying with the bill will put a
burden on our Town Clerk’s office and each board in town. The bill potentially

Public Act
No. 08-3 of the June 11 special session made some important changes to the
Freedom of Information statutes. The changes, which are effective Oct. 1,
will require all municipal public agencies to post their meeting minutes and
notices for special meetings on the town's Web site within the same time
frames that were already in the statute. Accordingly, the minutes for each
meeting must be available on the town's Web site within seven days after the
meeting, and special meeting notices must be posted on the town's Web site
not less than 24 hours before the special meeting. SOURCE: |
