§ 103107 Board Meeting Conduct Rules

• •Board meetings must use the Brown Act’s procedures.
• •The Brown Act tells how to give notice, set an agenda, and keep meetings open to the public.
• •If a board doesn’t follow those steps, the meeting could be considered invalid.

A city council wants to hold a meeting to talk about a new park.

Because of this law, the council must run the meeting the way the Brown Act says – they have to give people notice, post an agenda, and let the public watch and speak.
