Public Records and Sunshine Law Compliance
We Help Charter Schools in Complying with Florida’s Open Meetings and Public Records Laws.
As public schools, charter schools are required to comply with the Florida Sunshine Law and Public Records Act. These laws are intended to ensure that there is transparency in the way the affairs of the charter school are administered. Most records of a charter school may be inspected or copied by any member of the public upon request. Charter school governing boards must also conduct all of their meetings in the sunshine by giving proper notice to the public, allowing the public access to the meetings, and by keeping detailed minutes of what occurs at the meeting.
Florida’s Sunshine Law and Public Records Act are complex and potentially hazardous if not followed precisely. At the Arnold Law Firm, we advise clients on how to comply with the requirements of the Sunshine Law and Public Records Act, how to properly respond to public records requests, and how to develop and implement policies that ensure compliance with these laws.
