The free flow of information is key to our democratic society. The challenge
for everyone, especially our policymakers, is to balance the public's right to
information with the individual's right to privacy.
If you are involved with the operation of a city, township, village, school
district or municipality, you need to know the ins and outs of public records
and open meeting laws. The goal of this seminar is to inform you of the laws and
to provide you with relevant and practical information that will help you to
better do your job.

Learning objectives:

enforcement officials, public relations directors, school administrators and
