(a) Any person, upon written request and as provided herein, may obtain reasonable advance notice of all meetings at which any specific type of public business is scheduled to be discussed. Such person may file a written request with the Clerk specifying: the person's name, the address and telephone number at or through which the person can be reached during and after business hours; the specific type of public business, the discussion of which the person is requesting advance notice; the Municipal Body that is the subject of such request; and the number of calendar months, not to exceed twelve, which the request covers. Such request may be canceled upon request from such person to the Clerk.
Each such written request shall be accompanied by stamped, self-addressed envelopes sufficient in number to cover the number of regular meetings during the time period covered by the request and an estimated number of twenty special meetings. The Clerk shall notify the requesting person in writing when the supply of envelopes is running out, and if the person desires notification after such supply has run out such person must deliver to the Clerk an additional reasonable number of stamped self-addressed envelopes as a condition to receiving further notifications. 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 complete in all respects, and such request may be conclusively relied on by the City, the Clerk and the Municipal Body that is the subject of such request.
(b) The Clerk shall give such advance notice under this section by written notice or by oral notice, or both, as the Clerk determines. The contents of written notification under this subsection may be a copy of the agenda of the meeting. Written notification under this subsection may be accomplished by giving advance written notification by copies of the agenda of all meetings of the Municipal Body that is the subject of such request.
