JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (KMIZ) A first-term Jefferson City councilman has filed a complaint with the state against the city government alleging violations of open meetings and records laws. Second Ward Councilman Aaron Mealy shared a copy of the complaint sent to the Missouri Attorney General's Office with ABC 17 News on Thursday. Mealy claims that notices of meetings with city council members on Oct. 17 and 18 over employee health care benefits were not posted ahead of time. Those meetings included a quorum of city council members, Mealy states. "It could be inferred that proper meeting notice of the October 17th and October 18th meetings would have provided impacted parties with the appropriate information to become part of the public process and make informed decisions," Mealy wrote in the complaint. The Attorney General's Office and Jefferson City government did not respond to requests for comment Thursday. The city government released a statement about employee insurance changes Wednesday, saying no workers would be left without health coverage despite a shortfall in the fund that pays for claims.
