Open meetings act cites junket restrictions for city boards
Kansas Attorney General Robert Stephan ruled that a majority of a city board may not hold a retreat far from the public eye such as in the Colorado mountains. The opinion, requested by Lawrence Mayor Marci Francisco, warns such gatherings are unreasonably inaccessible and violate the Open Meetings Act. It allows attending conventions like the League of Kansas Municipalities but cautions against private discussions during travel or at retreats.
