SB 707 Brings Major Overhaul to the Brown Act

SB 707 (Durazo), signed into law by the Governor on October 3, 2025, implements the most sweeping set of Brown Act amendments in decades. In particular, the new amendments re-structure and add new requirements to the Brown Act’s already complex scheme for remote participation at meetings both by members of a legislative body and by members of the public. Some of these new requirements may be difficult for some agencies to implement and there may be as many questions as new answers.
