Description
Recorded in Lyndonville VT. Nov. 6th, 2013: Continuing his popular “Transparency Tour,” Secretary Condos will discuss Vermont's Open Meeting laws, including access to public records. "Meetings held that do not respect the details of the law offend our notions of openness and accountability and, therefore, our democracy. In Vermont, the people rule, sometimes directly, sometimes through elected or appointed representatives, but always with the benefit of public scrutiny," says Condos. All local officials – elected, appointed, and employed - were urged to attend this presentation by Secretary Jim Condos and to bring their questions with them. The public was also encouraged to attend.
