5 ILCS 120/3

from Ch. 102, par. 43

Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Open Meetings Act. Provides that the court may declare null and void any final action taken at a closed or open meeting (instead of only a closed meeting) in violation of the Act. Effective immediately.

House Floor Amendment No. 1
Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Amends the Open Meetings Act. Provides that the court may declare null and void a final action taken at an open meeting in violation of the Act, but only if a civil action alleging the violation is commenced within 60 days of that meeting and the alleged violation is directly and substantially related to that final action (currently, only actions taken at closed meetings may be declared null and void by the court).
