The bill amends the Freedom of Information Act of 1967 to include all communications with the Board of Apportionment as public records. It introduces a new section, 25-19-113, which specifies that communications to and from the Board must be in written, electronic, or recorded oral formats during public meetings. This inclusion ensures that such communications are accessible to the public, thereby enhancing transparency in governmental operations.

Additionally, the bill establishes a penalty for violations of this new requirement. Specifically, it states that any person who knowingly fails to comply with the communication standards outlined in the bill will be guilty of a Class A misdemeanor upon conviction. This provision aims to enforce adherence to the new regulations and uphold the principles of public accountability.
