What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill allows a school board to go into closed session for the purpose of

discussing, developing, reviewing, or approving a school safety plan. Under current

law, a school board is required to meet in open session for these purposes. An open

session is a meeting that is held in a place reasonably accessible to members of the

public and open to all citizens at all times. The bill also provides that school safety

plans are not subject to inspection or copying under open records law.
