Note: 2024 Act 133 Open Meeting Law Changes
Instead of extending the temporary changes in Act 1 of 2023, in 2024 the Vermont Legislature made permanent changes to the Open Meeting Law with the enactment of Act 133 (S.55) that replaced the expiring changes: https://legislature.vermont.gov/Documents/2024/Docs/ACTS/ACT133/ACT133%20As%20Enacted.pdf
Transparency is an essential element of open and democratic government. In Vermont, the primary means of providing transparency are the State’s open meeting law, 1 V.S.A. §§ 310-314, and the public records law, 1 V.S.A. §§ 315-320. These laws implement the command of Chapter I, Article 6 of the Vermont Constitution that officers of government are “trustees and servants” of the people and are “at all times, in a legal way, accountable to them.”
