There’s a question … if students at a university test positive, will they be reported in their home county or in the county where the university is located?

My husband says hello. LOL

Lol Hello husband:)

nope

I think Amos has rejoined us :-)

I'm back

Rural Missourians lack broadband access — and often only have Dish TV, so local access channels don’t exist either.

I think I’d rather have all meetings via Zoom so I wouldn’t have to attend them in person. Too many people in some local government just like to hear themselves talk sometimes.

Dave, were those people not able to speak at the Zoom meetings or were they required to submit questions and comments in advance?

Roxie: The city’s LSC hearing on road closing?

To be fair, that was the only time I got to ask questions of the governor.

No, just the city's Zoom meetings in general.

The city gave everyone the chance to speak during the hearing. They also had the chance to write responses which became part of the record and were provided as part of the minutes. I think everyone had the chance to comment as needed.

Name it. Terrible audio. Non-responsive administrators when trying to figure out what happened. Links to the "open meetings" not posted until three minutes into a meeting and "popup" meetings that are poorly advertised in order to have the knowledge to attend.

All problems with these "open" closed meetings.

Exactly! Are they meeting and not saying it? Yes.

They provide a notice somewhere deep down in their Facebook page. But no link.

Link last time was three minutes after the meeting was started and visitors comments section was just being closed when they let me on.

In our case here in Perryville, we control the video/audio record of the virtual meetings.

Yup. Happens here. Every other Friday, the link to the city council agenda drives in my inbox.

The Northwest Missouri State University Board of Regents has held at least two “emergency meetings” that were never publicly disclosed.

I receive the meeting notices emailed along with department heads and elected officials. Works well, zoom meeting links were sent to me by our city clerk. good clerk’s rock!

Give all your clerks and board secretaries a copy of the sunshine law pamphlet!

I’ve had to lay the smackdown on a health department director before who tried to tell one of my reporters that she couldn’t record a meeting.

We have a better health department director now.

The words “Missouri Attorney General’s office” in the letter should help

You know, nicely

Kristie is always trying to give them out at MOPress event!

“nicely” :o)

I am! I don't want to cart them back to the office!

LOL

I always take three of those books, Kristie!

"You get a pamphlet! And you get a pamphlet! EVERYONE GETS A PAMPHLET!"

People can always email Matt or I and request them and we'll mail them!

Heh :o)

I go to the person first because they may not know. If they do know, then I have no qualms about calling them out.

Dave, didn’t Swafford speak at MML one year? Our mayor was a fan

Hannah:I believe he did. He’s just SMOOTH.

I'm not Dave, but I'm betting Scott Swafford did, he had a large project he was working on and making the rounds a few years back. He would make a great addition to the Sunshine Coalition Board in the Future!

Bosslady!
