Canal Place Authority Under Fire for Latest Decision Regarding Media

February 28th, 2013 by WCBC Radio

WCBC’s “Dave Norman Show” has raised questions about the legality of a recent decision by the Canal Place Preservation and Development Authority to no longer send out meeting notifications to media outlets. A spokesperson for the board indicated that legal council has advised that posting a public meeting schedule on a bulletin board at Canal Place as well as by adding it to the website would suffice as adequate public notice. The Norman Show also believes it is illegal for the authority to send press releases to only one media outlet, in the most recent case the Cumberland Times News.
