(A) Public notice of the date, time and place of any meetings, executive sessions, or of any rescheduled or reconvened meeting shall be given at least 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays) before the meeting. This requirement does not apply to reconvened meetings (not including executive sessions) where announcement of the date, time and place of the reconvened meeting is made at the original meeting and recorded in the memoranda and minutes thereof, and there is no change in the agenda.
(B) Public notice shall be given by the Town Council by:
(1) Posting a copy of the notice at the principal office of the Town Council, or if no such office exists, at the building where the meeting is to be held; and
(2) Depositing in the United States mail with postage prepaid or by delivering notice to all news media which deliver by January 1 an annual written request for such notices for the next succeeding calendar year to the Town Council.
(C) Notice of regular meetings need be given only once each year, except that an additional notice shall be given where the date, time or place of a regular meeting or meetings is changed. This division (C) does not apply to executive sessions.
(D) If a meeting is called to deal with an emergency involving actual or threatened injury to person or property, or actual or threatened disruption of the governmental activity under the jurisdiction of the Town Council by any event, then the time requirements of notice under this section shall not apply, but:
(1) News media which have requested notice of meetings must be given the same notice as is given to the members of the Town Council; and
(2) The public must be notified by posting a copy of the notice according to this section.
(E) This section shall not apply where notice by publication is required by statute, ordinance, rule or regulation.
(F) Notice has not been given in accordance with this section if the Town Council convenes a meeting at a time so unreasonably departing from the time stated in its public notice that the public is misled or substantially deprived of the opportunity to attend, observe and record the meeting.
