The listing of Agenda items is those reasonably anticipated by the Chair which may be discussed at the meeting. Not all items listed may in fact be discussed and other items not listed may also be brought up for discussion to the extent it is permitted by law.
THIS AGENDA IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE

So IF this meeting has been posted improperly - not within the 48 hour timeframe per the Open Meeting Law- maybe these select people might want to consider tabling the filing of 2 open meeting law violations against the Advisory Committee?

At least until they can figure out how to post a meeting correctly within the 48 hour timeframe.

'Cause wouldn't THAT be ironic?

Discussing filing an OML violation against another board/committee at a meeting that has not been posted correctly and possibly in violation of the OML?

Priceless.

My opinions as always!

    So the question is was there any violation?
    Are "automatic" posted schedules acceptable for the 48 hour rules?
    You read and you decide!
    Could a issue with the Board and Committee get resolved or will the authorities have to step in and file the appropriate charges.
    Only in "Templeton" i must say!
