As we know, transparency is a basic expectation for municipalities.  Whether or not your entity has current challenges in this area, you’ll want to check out this recent presentation from CIRSA General Counsel Sam Light.  In this video, first aired at CML’s August 2020 Virtual Annual Conference, Sam discusses some trending topics related to transparency, including cyber-attack risks, liability issues surrounding First Amendment audits, and balancing transparency and confidentiality in executive sessions. Steps your organization can take to reduce potential claims, disputes, and losses in these areas are also suggested.  Click here to watch the video presentation and here for a copy of the presentation handouts.  CIRSA Members can always contact Sam at saml@cirsa.org or 720-605-8002 with questions about the presentation or for assistance through CIRSA’s Liability Hotline.
