S.B. No. 413 amends Section 11.0621 of the Education Code regarding the meetings of the boards of trustees of independent school districts. The bill requires that the minutes of regular or special meetings reflect each member's attendance and their votes on any items discussed. Additionally, it mandates that the board of trustees post these minutes on the district's website within seven days of the meeting, along with any resolutions adopted during that meeting. The bill also stipulates that a recording of each meeting must be made.

Furthermore, the bill removes the requirement for a certified agenda or tape recording to be included in the minutes, simplifying the documentation process. It ensures that the minutes and recordings of open meetings remain accessible to the public as per existing laws. This legislation is set to take effect on September 1, 2025.
