Florida Government-in-the-Sunshine. Florida is renowned for putting a high priority on
the public's right of access to governmental meetings
and records. In fact, the principles of open government
are embodied not only in Florida statutes, but also
guaranteed in the state Constitution. Florida began
its tradition of openness back in 1909 with the passage
of what has come to be known as the "Public Records
Law," Chapter 119 of the Florida Statutes. This
law provides that any records made or received by any
public agency in the course of its official business
are available for inspection, unless specifically exempted
by the Legislature. Over the years, the definition
of what constitutes "public records" has
come to include not just traditional written documents
such as papers, maps and books, but also tapes, photographs,
film, sound recordings and records stored in computers.
It was in 1967 that Florida's Government-in-the-Sunshine
Law was enacted. Today, the Sunshine Law can be found
in Chapter 286 of the Florida Statutes. The Sunshine
Law establishes a basic right of access to most meetings
of boards, commissions and other governing bodies of
state and local governmental agencies or authorities.
