08-OMD-162 was Followed by 11-OMD-006

In 08-OMD-162, the Attorney General determined that no violation of the Open Meetings Act occurred where the purpose of a series of less than quorum meetings was to educate the members, as there was no evidence of a quorum being present at a single meeting from which the public was excluded. This decision is cited in 11-OMD-006 to support the argument that discussions aimed at educating board members do not constitute a violation of the Open Meetings Act, aligning with the reasoning that educational discussions, even if less than a quorum, are permissible under the Act.
