[MassHistPres] Minutes becoming public

[Marcia Starkey]

Does this question neglect to consider that most HC members use their own private email accounts (among many other unclaimed contributions) ?

  I believe if it is between 2 or more members, and it might be 3, then it is considered a public hearing and must be open to all..

  based on the recent controversy in Boston regarding deleted emails. I believe that any correspondence pertinent to the functioning of the board would be a matter of public record. As well as any conversations between members of a board or the public regarding pending matters or the general functioning of the board. I don't think that anybody wants to have to explain to a judge why their board violated open meeting laws and shouldn't have a decision overturned because of it.
