Should Putnam County Livestream their meetings?

Last week, we learned that legislation passed as part of the new state budget did NOT mandate local governments livestream their legislative meetings. Instead the new law says that public authorities that are overseen by county governments have to livestream their meetings.

This carve out for local legislative meetings is ridiculous. How can we expect organizations that are regulated by the County Legislature to livestream their meetings when the Legislature itself does not?

As your Republican & Conservative candidate for Putnam County Legislator, I am advocating for greater access to county public meetings just as our towns and school districts have been doing for years.

It’s been a major platform of my campaign.

Enough is enough.

Sign our petition to tell the Putnam County Legislature stream all public meetings on their website in real-time!
