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.
