City of St. Helens Public Meetings Law Training

On November 18, 2024, we will be providing an in-person training on Oregon Public Meetings Law at the City of St. Helens. This training is for all public officials whether you are an employee, volunteer, elected official, or appointed official. Public officials from any agency are welcome to attend. Please register below to ensure that we have space for everyone.

This interactive 2.5 hour training will cover topics contained in ORS Chapter 192 / OAR Chapter 199. Attendees who stay for the entirety of the training will meet the training requirement in ORS 192.700 and will receive certificates of completion after the training is completed. The content will cover the individual responsibilities of governing body members, how the statutes apply to convening a public meeting, a general overview of executive session provisions, and a look at the grievance process. To supplement the training, there will be examples and time for questions and discussion around the topics covered.
