SUMMARY:Construction Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Sunshine Laws and the Vulnerability of Consultant Work Product in Public Works Construction Disputes\nThe United States Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and similar state-level open records statutes are intended to promote transparent government operations.  However\, when public agency owners encounter construction disputes\, such “sunshine laws” may become an obstacle to resolving them.  This presentation will explore the vulnerability of consultant work product to public records act demands against the intersection of attorney-client and work product privilege. \nSpeaker: Bryan Payne & Charles Montgomery

SUMMARY:Finance Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Fundamentals of Municipal Finance and Borrowing\nMunicipal attorneys are often asked\, “Can we do this?”\, when “this” relates to getting\, spending\, and borrowing money by their municipal clients. This session will consider the essential legal issues attendant to that question. We will discuss basic constitutional issues like public purpose\, corporate purpose\, and lending of the public credit; the theoretical distinction between taxes and fees; the legal ramifications of that distinction; and other limitations on the ways that municipalities can get and spend money. We will also briefly consider the role and types of municipal borrowing. Because the laws vary widely from state to state\, the session will focus on issue spotting and general questions that the municipal attorney should consider when asked financial questions. \nSpeaker: Eric Shytle

SUMMARY:Preemption Webinar - Free Live For IMLA Members
DESCRIPTION:Post-COVID Equitable Housing Preemption\nCLE available to Kitchen Sink Subscribers and in some cases to others but fees may apply. \nThis session examines state preemption of local authority to protect tenants and expand access to affordable housing\, particularly following the implementation and expiration of emergency measures passed during the COVID-19 pandemic. Many state legislatures\, in both “red” and “blue” states\, preempt local governments from increasing housing supply\, crafting inclusionary zoning\, or implementing rent regulations to alleviate housing unaffordability. This dynamic often came to a head during the COVID-19 pandemic as local governments sought to impose eviction moratoriums and extend other support to burdened renters. The sunset of these provisions during a time of high inflation and projected recession has demonstrated the need for continued local government leadership on equitable housing policies\, and even where state preemption exists. Local governments may still be able advance housing equity despite preemption and there are ways that municipal attorneys can help local leaders navigate this complex landscape. \nSpeaker: Nestor Davidson\, Berbeth Foster & Marissa Roy
