(a) Any person, upon written request and as provided herein, may obtain reasonable advance notification of all meetings at which any specific type of public business is scheduled to be discussed.
(b) The person may file a written request with the Village Clerk specifying: the person’s name, and the address(es) and telephone number(s) at or through which the person can be reached during and outside of business hours; the specific type of public business the discussion of which the person is requesting advance notification; the Municipal body that is the subject of such request; the number of calendar months (not to exceed three) which the request covers. Such request may be canceled by request from that person to the Clerk.
(1) Each such written request must be accompanied by cash, check or money order payable to the Village, in the amount of ten dollars ($10.00) for each month covered by the request, which amount has been determined by the Council to represent a reasonable fee to cover costs of providing such advance notification.
(2) Such requests may be modified or extended only by filing a complete new request with the Clerk. A request shall not be deemed to be made unless it is completed in all respects, and such request may be conclusively relied on by the Municipal body that is the subject of the request, and by the Clerk.
(c) The contents of written notification under this section may be a copy of the agenda of the meeting. Written notification under this section may be accomplished by giving advance written notification, by copies of the agendas, of all meetings of the Municipal body that is the subject of the request.
(d) A reasonable attempt at notification shall constitute notification in compliance with the provisions of this chapter.
