Statesboro city council members are questioning the courtroom strategy of City Attorney Sam Brannen after a Bulloch County Superior Court judge found the city in violation of the Georgia Open Meetings Act. Judge John R. Turner posted the ruling Friday morning, after a hearing was held in his courtroom Tuesday. In the ruling, Turner said the city conducted meetings on both April 1 and April 19 without posting proper public notice at City Hall or at the Gateway Pond House, where the meetings took place.
