Illinois HB2890 amends the Open Meetings Act by modifying how public bodies must notify the public of changes to regular meeting dates. The bill removes the requirement for publication in a newspaper or posting in prominent places within the governmental unit. Instead, it mandates that notice of changes must be posted on the public body's website and supplied to news media. This change aims to ensure that public bodies use modern communication methods to inform the public about meeting schedule changes.
