During a D.C. Taxicab Commission meeting in June, two journalists were arrested for reporting on the proceedings, accused of violating a policy against taping. This week, the Commission released a revised open meeting policy.

Authorities eventually decided not to pursue charges against Pete Tucker from The Fightback and Jim Epstein from Reason (according to NBC Washington, Tucker plans to sue the city).

On Friday, Mike DeBonis reported that the Commission issued a revised policy, and attendees can now record meetings as long as they don’t, “impede the orderly conduct of the meeting.”

The new policy states:

“A member of the public, including any representative of the media, may record or photograph the proceedings of the Commission at an open meeting by means of a tape recorder or any other recording device so long as the person does not impede the orderly conduct of the meeting, by, for instance, creating excessive noise that impairs the ability of others to hear the proceeding or using excessively bright artificial light.”
