IT'S LEGAL TO RECORD CITY COUNCIL MEETINGS!
Record City Council meetings!
By: Jim Richards
Posted by jimr Tue Nov 28, 2006 00:00:00 PST Viewed 25 times 0 responses 0 comments Wanna know how to "put the fox in a box"? Record it! Under California's Brown Act, Chapter V, RIGHTS OF THE PUBLIC: "A legislative body may not prohibit any person attending an open meeting from video recording, audio recording or broadcasting the proceedings, absent a resonable finding that such activity would consitute a disruption of the proceedings." Section 54935.5, 54953.6, Nevens v. City of Chino (1965) 233 Cal. App. 2d 775; see also 6091. Just imagine memorializing all their words and actions and deeds, for all time to come. To be reviewed, broadcasted, and otherwise disseminated for future determination. So, bring your gear, set up your tripod, and let it rip! Maybe, just maybe we "outsiders" can get the attention we deserve. Jim Richards 2 comments from 2 users

Good point! The Tehachapi News is looking forward to utililzing our website to broadcast video footage of public meetings and other newsworthy events to our readers - and bloggers - sometime in 2007!
Stay tuned — and keep reading — for more exciting changes, as we continue to grow with the community of Tehachapi!
