FAC Initiates Complaint Against Brevard Commissioners to Florida Attorney General
After our three letters to Brevard County Commissioners and numerous letters from members went ignored, FAC has now written to Florida’s Attorney General requesting she enforce Florida’s Governing in the Sunshine Law against the Commissioners of Brevard County. The Commissioners were clearly put on notice that they cannot exclude members of the public from their County Commission meetings at which official business is conducted.

Great letter!!! Let’s see if they ignore this challenge to constitutionality. The commissions methodology for implementing ordinances and amendments is no way in compliance with Florida’s sunshine laws. But do the commissioners care? We will find out. The ‘meat’ of this letter may be material for a letter to the editor.
Wow, amazing. I hope it is taken seriously. would love to see the commissioners cited and taken to jail.
Great Work!
That is a very impressive complaint! Although I don’t live in Brevard, their ordinances impact me as a visitor.
Go Gail !!!
I made a memo reminder
On my phone to ask Larry N.(registry matters podcast /Narsol) About this very same question.
Hell I’m wondering if the commissioners even read my email I sent to all of them.
I also feel like, someone has to show up. Aka take the hit. Their county or city ordinance doesn’t/ can’t Trump the federal law/Bill of rights/first amendment/constitution. No prosecutor in the right mind would go through with that charge, wait you guys do live in Florida. Maybe!
I know in Iowa (not to rub it in) we can vote in a school or where ever it maybe located. But! That is in Iowa law.
I’m glad I don’t live in Florida anymore.
“No prosecutor in the right mind would go through with that charge.” I strongly disagree! The Brevard/Seminole County State Attorneys Office has a poor history when it comes to over charging and charging any cases related to a potential sex offense. I know from personal, painful experience.
Bill, I think Nate’s “no prosecutor in the right mind” comment was tongue-in-cheek. Of course, one obvious conclusion is that the Brevard/Florida prosecutors are not in the right mind. So you may both be correct. 🙂
Excellent letter FAC! Those with authority despise it when they are reminded of the limits to that authority. Excluding registrants from an open meeting regarding registrants is an absurdity.
I look forward to seeing how the Attorney General will dance around this clear violation of Florida law. After all, registrants aren’t actually barred from attending the meeting. They will merely be subject to criminal liabilities if they do. What’s the problem?
