This title refers to the provisions of the Illinois State "Open Meetings Act," which ensures transparency and public access to government operations. The Act mandates that all meetings of public bodies must be open to the public and permits individuals to record these meetings without prior notification. This legal provision aims to promote accountability and allow citizens to actively participate in and monitor the decision-making processes of public entities. By allowing recording without notification, the Act ensures that public officials conduct business in an open and observable manner, fostering a transparent government environment.
