HB2209

Oklahoma HB2209 allows public body members to join meetings from private residences without disclosing their address, ensuring privacy and security.

Oklahoma HB2209 amends the Oklahoma Open Meeting Act to permit members of a public body to participate in meetings via videoconference or teleconference from a private residence. The bill specifies that members need not disclose their private residence address on meeting notices or agendas, provided they identify the location as a "private residence." The bill defines "private residence" as any home, apartment, or personal living space not used as a public or commercial meeting site. It emphasizes compliance with all other transparency and notice requirements of the Oklahoma Open Meeting Act.
