If a village mayor receives an enforcement letter from the EPA or DEC regarding a wastewater treatment plant, is she required to include the letter in the monthly meeting minutes or agenda available to constituents?
If so, when must it be included? Or is disclosure optional?
Government officials receive many letters, and to my knowledge, there is no requirement to include a letter in meeting agendas or minutes.
A letter can be added as an agenda item for discussion, but there is no obligation to do so.
If you’re aware of a specific letter, you can file a FOIL request to obtain it.
