From Secretary of State Beth Chapman:
Secretary of State Beth Chapman continues to increase access for the public by improving the functionality of the Open Meetings Act website.
The Open Meetings Act provides the public with greater access to state and local government. This law guarantees that Alabama’s citizens have open access to agencies, boards, commissions, and other governmental bodies which conduct the people’s business.
The Secretary of State’s office, since going online with the Open Meetings Act website in 2005, has registered more than 550 public organizations, and hundreds of individuals who have registered to receive notifications concerning meeting times and dates.
