Revised Requirements for Executive Sessions and Closed Meetings
This proposed bill would revise the requirements for executive sessions and closed meetings in South Dakota. Before this change, specific rules governed when government bodies could hold private discussions or meetings without public attendance. The new proposal aims to update these rules but does not specify how they will be changed. This affects all governmental entities that conduct business in South Dakota, including city councils, school boards, and state agencies. Until the bill is enacted and an effective date is set, no action is required.
The previous version of the law specified conditions under which government bodies could hold executive sessions and closed meetings, but details are not provided in this abstract.
