How much notice must the department provide for regularly scheduled commission meetings?

The department is required to provide a notice of at least fourteen days for regularly scheduled commission meetings. This notice period ensures that stakeholders and interested parties have enough time to prepare for the meeting, review agenda items, and participate in discussions as needed. By setting this standard, it promotes transparency and allows for adequate planning, which is essential for effective governance and decision-making. Having a clear advance notice period helps maintain order and allows for public participation, reflecting good practices in organizational communication and engagement with the community.
