October 27, 2009: MCPS Board of Education found in violation of Maryland Open Meetings Act with respect to retreats held during 2007, 2008 and 2009 under Board Presidents Nancy Navarro and Shirley Brandman.
 
The Maryland Open Meetings Compliance Board opinionstates: 

"that certain items considered during the course of retreats of the County Board were subject to the Open Meetings Act; minutes for those retreats were required. While minutes were prepared, the minutes were deficient in that they lacked the County Board's approval."
