Several people have asked me lately if nonprofit board meetings are subject to the requirements of the open-meetings laws.

While I’m not an attorney, I believe the answer is no. Our boards are not required by law to make sure our meetings are announced to the general public or to welcome anyone who wishes to attend. That’s the legal side of the issue."
