Resident raises Sunshine Act concern after agenda posted late; requests better audio and recordings

During public comment, Speaker 3, a resident who records meetings and posts them online under “Huntington Township Watch,” said the meeting agenda was not posted to the township website until between 9:11 a.m. and 9:38 a.m. on the morning of the meeting and called the delay a potential Sunshine Act violation. “The agenda was not posted yesterday. It it came about between 09:11 and 09:38 this morning, and I’ve got screenshots all morning long,” Speaker 3 said.

Speaker 2 apologized and explained the agenda was not sent on Thursday as usual. Speaker 2 said they sent materials Saturday for posting Monday morning and acknowledged the agenda was posted on the building door; they apologized to Speaker 3 for the oversight.

Speaker 3 also said audio quality and speaker volume on the recorded videos are an ongoing problem for seniors and residents who cannot attend in person. They asked the township to consider microphones and better audio so recordings do not require extensive editing. “I record these meetings...it’s very busy for them...it would be nice...I don’t even know who this gentleman is. He was not introduced,” Speaker 3 said, arguing improved on‑site audio and clearer introductions would help remote viewers.

Township participants accepted the apology and moved on; no formal corrective action was recorded in the transcript. The chair noted the next meeting date and then adjourned after a motion and second. The transcript records the next meeting as May 20.

Any factual claims about a statutory Sunshine Act violation were raised by a resident in public comment and were not adjudicated during the meeting.
