The Fire District violated the OMA with respect to the September 19, 2013 agenda when it incorrectly listed the date the notice was posted as August 17, 2013, instead of September 17, 2013. The Fire District violated the APRA by failing to have a copy of its APRA procedures on its website. See R.I. Gen. Laws § 38-2-3(d).
