Amends the Open Meetings Act. In a provision concerning the establishment of a quorum at an open meeting, specifies that a public body with a geographic jurisdiction of more than 4,500 square miles that is a local workforce investment area, tourism board, convention center board, or civic center board and that holds its open meetings by interactive video conference in public buildings throughout the State may count toward its establishment of a quorum those individuals who participate in those interactive video conferences. Specifies that a provision concerning the attendance of members of public bodies, at public meetings, by means other than their physical presence, does not apply to a public body with a geographic jurisdiction of more than 4,500 square miles that is a tourism board, convention center board, or civic center board. Currently, these two provisions are not applicable to tourism boards, convention center boards, or civic center boards.
