ISSUE/ ACTION PROPOSED
This particular resolution Is ln direct response to Senate Bill No. 91-33. In said Bill
tl1ere Is a requ1rement that "In addition to any other means of full and timely notice a
local body shall b e deemed to have given full and timely notice If the notice of the
meeting Is posted In a designated publlc place within the boundaries of tl1e lo cal
publlc body no less than 24 hours prior to the holding of the meeting. The publlc
place or places for posting such notice shall be designated annually at the lo cal
body"s first regulai meettng of each calendar year."
In reviewing the Act It does not make posting mandatory. Altllough not directly
r equiring the postlrg tl1e Statute offers as satisfactory compllance with notice
posting. The Bill Intends to expand publlc access to government Information •
posting ts a way to achieve this laudable goal . ·
As a recommendation this Office Is offering Ille Bulletin Board located tn the
Englewood City Hall Lobby for this purpose. Certainly oilier posting pl aces are
allo wed and can be designated as Council d elemunes Is the a ppropriate public policy
of the City of Englewood .
Th.ls matter will come up a ~aln In J anuary of 1992. a nd we will try to cyc le tn ls on a
regular basis as required by State Statute for the '1r st mee ting of each cale ndar year.
