From The Pueblo Chieftain: The controversy around City Council’s meetings about the city’s half-cent tax already has forced one change — council’s weekly pre-work session dinners are now being conducted as public meetings.
The weekly meals have occurred for years and aren’t behind closed doors, but the state’s open meetings law requires council to notify the public if more than two council members meet.
While city staff and even reporters come and go through the pre-meeting meals, the question about whether that meal should be posted and open to the public came into sharp focus in the past few weeks.
