NORTHFIELD After meeting in executive session to discuss an Open Meeting Law complaint, members of the Pioneer Valley Regional School District School Committee determined there was an error posting last month’s Budget Subcommittee meeting, and the meeting will be re-held on Tuesday, March 9.
Warwick Finance Committee Chair Diana Noble filed the complaint that the Feb. 4 Budget Subcommittee meeting was “not posted or held in a manner that allowed the public to attend.”
“The topics and deliberations of these meetings is of keen importance to the financial well-being of our towns and residents,” Noble wrote in her complaint. “The intent of the Open Meeting Law is to allow the community to understand the topics at hand and governing decisions being made.”
