Section 10.220  Informal Recordings of Board Meetings

Any person may record a Board meeting by tape, film or any other means, provided that the act of recording does not disrupt the meeting.  In order to minimize disruption of the meeting, audiotapes, videotapes, and other recordings may be taken from any seat within the audience at the meeting or from the rear of the meeting room.  Recordings may not be taken from the side or middle aisles or from the front of the meeting room, as such practices disrupt and disturb the audience, speakers and Board members.  Further, the Chairperson, or anyone acting is his or her stead, may ask that a recording be stopped or that recording equipment be relocated in the event that noise from the recording equipment or act of recording interferes with a Board member's or the public's ability to hear any discussion at the meeting.
