BAR ASSOCIATION TO SPONSOR CITIZENS IN SUNSHINE SESSION
Do you serve on a government board or advisory committee? Do you represent others
who do? Are you confused about social media,
emails, text messages, social gatherings and
the implications for Florida's Government in
the Sunshine and Public Records laws? "Given
today's technology and the increasing explosion of electronic communications, you are
not alone," a Sarasota County Bar Association
news release says.
On Friday, Oct. 11, attorney Pat Gleason, special counsel for open government for Florida
Attorney General Pam Bondi, "will present a
practical, 'real world scenario' information
session designed for those who serve on local
government boards or advisory boards, those
who represent them and individuals interested
in the intricacies of open meetings and public
records laws," the release adds. "Bring your
questions and get the answers you need," it
continues.
The workshop will be held in the Michael's
on East ballroom beginning at 8:30 a.m. with
a continental breakfast. The program will run
from 9 to 11 a.m. The cost is $20 per person.
Advanced registration is required; reservations may be made by clicking on the following link: www.sarasotabar.com.
This session is made possible by the support
of two area law firms — Icard Merrill and
Williams Parker —in conjunction with the
Sarasota County Bar Association, the release
notes.
