The answer is ‘YES’ according to an Argus Leader employee. They plan to Livestream and Record the Parks Board and REMSA meetings from now on. This of course is to pressure the Mayor to change his mind about recording the meetings for the sake of transparency.
There is state law from 1974 that says anyone can record government meetings in South Dakota (as long as it is NOT an executive session).
Remember, this is about transparency for the citizenry, not for the protection of board members. King Huether just doesn’t get it.
