NOTICE: Governor Abbott has temporarily suspended certain requirements of the Open Meetings Act in response to the COVID-19 public health disaster. Specifically, governmental entities are permitted to meet by telephone or video conference, provided the meetings are audible to members of the public and allow for two-way communication. The suspension of certain requirements of the Open Meetings Act is intended to reduce in-person meetings and the spread of COVID-19, while maintaining government transparency.
The NBU Board of Trustees’ meeting scheduled for May 25, 2021, at 1:00 p.m., will be held by video conference. Members of the public may join the meeting from a computer, tablet, or smartphone at https://global.gotomeeting.com/join/529546853. Members of the public may also participate in the video conference by telephone at (866) 899-4679. The access code for the video conference link and dial-in telephone number is 529-546-853. Both the link and telephone number are free of charge. Members of the public will be allowed to participate during the Public Comment period and discuss any item on the Agenda.
