Original Question:  Does anyone have a 1-2 page summary of the Open Meetings Act?  I'd like to have a single sheet to hand out to my board members for their Trustee binders; something that is quick and easy to use as a reminder.

 

Board members sometimes use email between board meetings to keep up to date on issues - this is touched upon in the OMA, but I am still uncomfortable with how far behind the times the OMA lags.  I'd like to be able to put that reminder right at our fingertips.

 

Here is a summary of the responses I received, including links and attachments.
