Public Records

The City of Mansfield abides by the Louisiana Public Records Act, also known as Louisiana's Sunshine Law, which was enacted by the state's legislature in 1940.

In 1974, Louisiana adopted a new State Constitution which included a provision establishing that idea that
public documents are presumed to be open for public inspection.  The 1974 constitution says,
"No person shall be denied the right to . . . examine public documents except in cases established by law."

Feel free to browse through the archives of the City Council Agendas and City Council Minutes.  Current agendas are available prior to the scheduled meetings.  Minutes are available following approval at the subsequent meeting. 
The City Clerk prepares the documentation for the meetings and maintains all City Council records.
