NOTICE OF PUBLIC MEETING

Organization: Pollard Memorial Library Board of Trustees
Zoom only - please email bcooley@lowelllibrary.org for credentials to access this meeting. 

On March 29, 2023, Governor Healey signed into law a supplemental budget bill which, among other things, extends the temporary provisions pertaining to the Open Meeting Law to March 31, 2025. Specifically, this further extension allows public bodies to continue holding meetings remotely without a quorum of the public body physically present at a meeting location, and to provide "adequate, alternative" access to remote meetings. The language does not make any substantive changes to the Open Meeting Law other than extending the expiration date of the temporary provisions regarding remote meetings from March 31, 2023 to March 31, 2025.

Members of the public wishing to attend the meeting and/or speak regarding a specific agenda item should email the Library Director at bcooley@Lowellma.gov indicating your name and on which agenda item(s) you would like to speak.
