(Abington, IN)--Indiana’s Public Access Counselor has determined that Abington Township has violated the state’s Open Door Law. That law went into effect in July of last year and states that there be live transmissions of meetings along with archived copies available for viewing. Now, nearly a year later, Abington is not doing that. In a formal response, Abington Township Trustee Steve Kaiser said that Abington does not have reliable internet service and has sought help from the Indiana Office of Technology to set up necessary equipment and create a website. Kaiser predicted livestreaming would be in place by March, but that has not happened and no video recordings of meetings have been made.
