BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) - North Dakota Attorney General Wayne Stenehjem says the Lincoln City Council and the McKenzie Township board recently violated the state’s open meetings law.

Stenehjem says the Lincoln City Council improperly took final action while meeting in executive sessions in March and April. Under state law, final action on what is discussed in a closed session must take place in an open meeting.

Stenehjem says the McKenzie Township board held a special meeting in May without providing proper public notice.



Both groups must update public minutes related to the meetings in question.
