Implements, pursuant to and in compliance with the provisions of article seven of the Public Officers Law, a system of videoconferencing to conduct meetings

This resolution implements videoconferencing for New York State Assembly and Senate meetings, following Public Officers Law requirements. It requires that at least one physical location with a quorum must be present for public attendance, and video participation is only permitted for legislators with extraordinary circumstances (e.g., emergencies) and prior approval from their leadership. The resolution explicitly prohibits using videoconferencing if no members are physically present at a meeting. It takes effect immediately upon adoption and remains in force until related 2022 law expires.
