Today’s issue of The State Register contains three meetings that violate the public notice requirements of West Virginia’s open meetings law.
Agencies involved in the violations were the Putnam County Community Criminal Justice Board, the Governor’s Conference on Tourism, and the Tri-River Transit Authority.
As we’ve reminded folks before, the West Virginia Open Governmental Proceedings Act requires agencies to send meeting notices to the Secretary of State in time for notices to appear in the State Register five days prior to a scheduled meeting. Every week, we list the agencies that didn’t comply, thanks to the Secretary of State’s office, which kindly marks those agencies with an asterisk in the list of meetings published each Friday in the Register.
