54954.1
. Any person may request that a copy of the agenda, or a
copy of all the documents constituting the agenda packet, of any
meeting of a legislative body be mailed to that person. If requested,
the agenda and documents in the agenda packet shall be made
available in appropriate alternative formats to persons with a
disability, as required by Section 202 of the Americans with
Disabilities Act of 1990 (42 U.S.C. Sec. 12132), and the federal
rules and regulations adopted in implementation thereof. Upon receipt
of the written request, the legislative body or its designee shall
cause the requested materials to be mailed at the time the agenda is
posted pursuant to Section 54954.2 and 54956 or upon distribution to
all, or a majority of all, of the members of a legislative body,
whichever occurs first. Any request for mailed copies of agendas or
agenda packets shall be valid for the calendar year in which it is
filed, and must be renewed following January 1 of each year. The
legislative body may establish a fee for mailing the agenda or agenda
packet, which fee shall not exceed the cost of providing the
service. Failure of the requesting person to receive the agenda or
agenda packet pursuant to this section shall not constitute grounds
for invalidation of the actions of the legislative body taken at the
meeting for which the agenda or agenda packet was not received.
