Status: in_force

Sec. 7.5. (a) This section applies only to an individual who is:

(1) an officer of a public agency; or

(2) employed in a management level position with a public agency.

(b) If an individual with the specific intent to violate the law fails to perform a duty imposed on the individual under this chapter by:

(1) failing to give proper notice of a regular meeting, special meeting, or executive session;

(2) taking final action outside a regular meeting or special meeting;

(3) participating in a secret ballot during a meeting;

(4) discussing in an executive session subjects not eligible for discussion in an executive session;

(5) failing to prepare a memorandum of a meeting as required by section 4 of this chapter; or

(6) participating in at least one (1) gathering of a series of gatherings under section 3.1 of this chapter;

the individual and the public agency are subject to a civil penalty under subsection (f).

(c) A civil penalty may only be imposed as part of an action filed under section 7 of this chapter. A court may not impose a civil penalty under this section unless the public access counselor has issued an advisory opinion:

(1) to the complainant and the public agency;

(2) that finds that the individual or public agency violated this chapter; and

(3) before the action under section 7 of this chapter is filed.

Nothing in this section prevents both the complainant and the public agency from requesting an advisory opinion from the public access counselor.

(d) It is a defense to the imposition of a civil penalty under this section that the individual failed to perform a duty under subsection (b) in reliance on either of the following:

(1) An opinion of the public agency's legal counsel.

(2) An opinion of the attorney general.

(e) Except as provided in subsection (i), in an action filed under section 7 of this chapter, a court may impose a civil penalty against one (1) or more of the following:

(1) The individual named as a defendant in the action.

(2) The public agency named as a defendant in the action.

(f) The court may impose against each defendant listed in subsection (c) the following civil penalties:

(1) Not more than one hundred dollars ($100) for the first violation.

(2) Not more than five hundred dollars ($500) for each additional violation.

A civil penalty imposed under this section is in addition to any other civil or criminal penalty imposed. However, in any one (1) action brought under section 7 of this chapter, a court may impose only one (1) civil penalty against an individual, even if the court finds that the individual committed multiple violations. This subsection does not preclude a court from imposing another civil penalty against an individual in a separate action, but an individual may not be assessed more than one (1) civil penalty in any one (1) action brought under this section.

(g) A court shall distribute monthly to the state comptroller any penalties collected under this section for deposit in the education fund established by IC 5-14-4-14.

(h) An individual is personally liable for a civil penalty imposed on the individual under this section. A civil penalty imposed against a public agency under this section shall be paid from the public agency's budget.

(i) If an officer of a public agency directs an individual who is employed in a management level position to fail to give proper notice as described in subsection (b)(1), the management level employee is not subject to civil penalties under subsection (f).

Sec. 5. Notwithstanding any other law, any city, town, county, school corporation, or regional district organized under IC 13-26 or IC 13-3-2 (before its repeal) that has complied with all statutory requirements for the issuance of its bonds, other than IC 5-1-11 or any public sale statute, may, in lieu of issuing bonds at that time and without the need for complying with any other law applicable to the issuance of bonds, notes, or other evidences of indebtedness, issue its notes in anticipation of the issuance of bonds to a financial institution. However, if the amount of the notes is at least one million dollars ($1,000,000), the notes may be issued to any purchaser. The bond anticipation notes may be issued on terms set forth in a resolution or ordinance authorizing their issuance and in any amount equal to or less than the amount of bonds authorized to be issued. The city, town, county, school corporation, or district may renew or extend the bond anticipation notes from time to time on terms agreed to with the financial institution or other purchaser. The amount of the accrued interest on the date of renewal or extension of the bond anticipation notes may be paid or added to the principal amount of the bond anticipation notes being renewed or extended as long as the aggregate principal amount of bond anticipation notes outstanding at any time does not exceed the maximum principal amount permitted by this section. The bond anticipation notes, including any renewals or extensions, must mature in the amounts and at the times (not exceeding five (5) years from the date of the original issuance of the bond anticipation notes) agreed to by the city, town, county, school corporation, or district and the financial institution or other purchaser. The bond anticipation notes must be finally paid, and interest on the bond anticipation notes may be finally paid, with the proceeds of the bonds issued by the city, town, county, school corporation, or district. In connection with the issuance of bonds, part or all of the proceeds of which will be used to retire the bond anticipation notes, it is not necessary for the city, town, county, school corporation, or district to repeat the procedures for the issuance of bonds, as the procedures followed before the issuance of the bond anticipation notes are for all purposes sufficient to authorize the issuance of the bonds.
