The Riley County Law Board held a special meeting on September 14, 2026, primarily addressing public concerns and procedural matters related to the Kansas Open Meetings Act and the handling of executive sessions. A public comment highlighted concerns about the board's practice of using executive sessions to discuss the police director's position and potential successors, arguing this may violate open meetings laws. Another public comment from a local business association expressed appreciation for police cooperation in managing street closures during events, emphasizing the need for balanced access to businesses. The board moved into a 30-minute executive session to discuss a personnel matter related to the police director's performance contract but took no formal action or vote afterward. No procurement, contract awards, or budget decisions were made during this meeting.
