About the Webinar

With the signing of SB 707 in October, California is modernizing how local agencies conduct public meetings. These changes address long-standing challenges, from limited remote access and accessibility gaps to barriers for multilingual and underrepresented communities. SB 707 requires two-way telephonic or audiovisual platforms, real-time translation assistance, and outreach for greater public participation.

In this “Lunch and Learn” webinar, our expert panel of local government legal advisors will guide you through the new Brown Act landscape. You will gain a clear understanding of your agency’s obligations and leave with action steps to ensure your meetings are inclusive, accessible, and legally compliant in the post-pandemic era.

Speakers

  • Aleks R. Giragosian – Senior Counsel at Colantuono, Highsmith & Whatley, PC
  • Nicholaus Norvell – Partner at Best Best & Krieger LLP

Conversation moderated by the Institute for Local Government
