Sec. 1-232. (Formerly Sec. 1-21h). Conduct of meetings.
Sec. 1-232. (Formerly Sec. 1-21h). Conduct of meetings. In the event that any
meeting of a public agency is interrupted by any person or group of persons so as to
render the orderly conduct of such meeting unfeasible and order cannot be restored by
the removal of individuals who are wilfully interrupting the meetings, the members of
the agency conducting the meeting may order the meeting room cleared and continue
in session. Only matters appearing on the agenda may be considered in such a session.
Duly accredited representatives of the press or other news media, except those participating in the disturbance, shall be allowed to attend any session held pursuant to this section.
Nothing in this section shall prohibit such public agency from establishing a procedure
for readmitting an individual or individuals not responsible for wilfully disturbing the
meeting.
