(Continued from Page 1) Third Ward), "have had to do with either personnel or real es- tat. matters, and those are still Q.K., even under the act." The only provision of the bill that may affect city government is the requirem entthat the pub- lic Ise notified not less titan .18 hours before a special meeting of Council or one of the con- missions. Since it is a state law, it would nullify a section of the City C~larter allowving the mayolr or any three Council members to calla special meeting on only three hours notice. "WE'LL HAVE to modify our special meetings provision, which could be a problem in an emergency situation," said Hen- ry. "If it did happen, what could we do?" The bill does not specify whether or not political caucus- es will have to be opened to the public. In ' a memo distributed to Council and commission members, City Attorney Bruce Laidlaw said he believes theract does not apply to caucuses. While the wbill includes penal- ties for violation of the law, including a fine of $1,000 for a first offense and $2,000 or a year in jail for the second of- fense -- Council members still view the difficulties of enforce- ment as a major drawback. THE LAW specifically states that it does not apply to "a neeting which is a social or chance gathering or conference not designed to avoid this act." Some Council members feel that this clause makes the law easy to circumvent. "You can't legislate morality," said member Elizabeth Keogh, (D-First Ward). "The way peo- ple use the law will have a lot to do with its effect. It's very easy to get around. If people start making a farce out of it, say by demanding stacks of Xerox copies of things, you can bet that I'm going to start hav- ing a lot of parties at my house." Added Bertoia: "I think it's a good idea. But it's going to require a lot of enforcement, and I don't really see how it's going to be done. I think that 99 ier cent of the cties and towns are going to keep on:do- m ig just what they have been all along.
