BLAIR LEE III, Acting Governor

79

SERVES ON THE COUNTY BOARD WITHOUT ADDITIONAL COMPENSATION.
HOWEVER, AFTER SUBMITTING VOUCHERS, HE IS ENTITLED TO
REIMBURSEMENT FOR TRAVEL AND OTHER EXPENSES INCURRED AS A
RESULT OF MEETINGS OF THE BOARD.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section presently appears as Art.
77, §36D(g) and the last two sentences of (i) .

The only changes are in style.

3-204. MEETINGS.

(A)   ACTIONS TO BE PUBLIC.

ALL ACTIONS OF THE COUNTY BOARD SHALL BE TAKEN AT A
PUBLIC MEETING AND A RECORD OF THE MEETING AND ALL ACTIONS
SHALL BE MADE PUBLIC.

(B)   EXECUTIVE SESSION.

THIS SECTION DOES NOT PROHIBIT THE COUNTY BOARD     FROM

MEETING AND DELIBERATING IN EXECUTIVE SESSION, PROVIDED   THAT

ANY ACTION OF THE BOARD, TOGETHER WITH THE INDIVIDUAL   VOTE
OF EACH MEMBER, IS CONTAINED IN A PUBLIC RECORD.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section presently appears as Art.
77, §36D(h).

In this section, the present phrase "shall
perform the usual functions ... in this article"
is deleted as unnecessary. The present provision
that authorizes the Allegany County Board to
adopt bylaws is deleted in light of §4-107(4) of
this article.

The only other changes are in style.

Although this section provides for open meetings
of the Allegany County Board and requires a
public record of the meetings. Art. 76A, §§ 7
through 15, the "sunshine law", contains more
specific requirements for open meetings and would
apply to meetings of the County Board. This is
so since the provisions of the "sunshine law"
control over other provisions in the Code unless
these other provisions "are more stringent".

As to other provisions limiting executive
sessions by county boards, see §4—106(e) of this
article.
