Check an agenda or meeting for open-meetings compliance
This page lists three turns, the messages you send to the AI one after another in the same chat, and then a check of the answer. Keep it open next to your chat. Each turn shows the next thing to paste, with the values you entered already filled in. Nothing is sent from this page, and your conversation stays in the AI tool you are using.
Paste exactly what was published, including headers, the closed-session line, and any attachments referenced.
Which state's open-meetings act, which body, and what type of meeting.
Posting time and place, who attended, what was discussed in closed session, what votes were taken and when.
Paste the notice, agenda, closed-session, and minutes provisions you want applied. Without text, every rule gets flagged for verification.
Changes whether the output is a redline or a cure-and-exposure plan.
Watch for these throughout
Posting periods, agenda-specificity standards, and closed-session exceptions differ sharply by state and by meeting type, and are amended frequently. Confirm every rule against the current act before advising the body.
Local charters, board bylaws, and district policies often impose requirements stricter than the state act. Check them separately. The model will not know they exist.
Serial or walking-quorum communications by email and text are the most common violation and the least visible on the face of an agenda. Ask about them directly.
Several acts carry personal penalties for members, and some carry criminal exposure. Do not treat a closed-session defect as a purely institutional problem.
A curative re-vote can be evidence that the first vote was defective. Decide with the body whether to cure, and document why, before anything goes on an agenda.
