Extension of Authority to Conduct Remote Public Meetings

Extension of Authority to Conduct Remote Public Meetings

KEEPING YOU INFORMED…

In our June 2, 2022 client memorandum, we described that the authority to conduct remote public meetings was extended through June 14, 2022. We are writing to advise you that the Governor has issued an executive order continuing the State COVID-19 disaster emergency through July 14, 2022. Thus, the authority to conduct remote public meetings will continue uninterrupted through July 14, 2022.

In addition, the new legislation regarding videoconferencing during public meetings that is outlined in our June 2, 2022 client memorandum will now become mandatory effective July 15, 2022 (or later if the Governor extends the COVID-19 disaster emergency beyond July 14).

If you have any questions regarding remote public meetings or the use of videoconferencing during public meetings, please contact Lindsay Crocker, Lauren Schnitzer or one of our other attorneys by calling (631) 694-2300.

THIS MEMORANDUM IS MEANT TO ASSIST IN GENERAL UNDERSTANDING OF THE CURRENT LAW. IT IS NOT TO BE REGARDED AS LEGAL ADVICE. THOSE WITH PARTICULAR QUESTIONS SHOULD SEEK THE ADVICE OF COUNSEL.
