Willow Lake School District (No. 11-05)

This complaint asserts that the Willow Lake School Board met without proper notice on two occasions in 2011 and that on a third occasion in 2001 the public was unable to attend a meeting due to locked doors.  This matter was  heard by the OMC on December 7, 2011. The OMC voted to issue a reprimand on the two occasions where no notice was posted. The OMC found that there was not a violation on the third matter since an alternate door was unlocked and did not bar the public. Written Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law were issued on March 9, 2012.
