an impending meeting. Institutions of higher education or political subdivisions 
covering all or part of four or more counties (regional agencies) must post 
notice at least 72 hours before a scheduled meeting time. Some notices may be 
received too late to be published before the meeting is held, but all notices 
are published in the Texas Register.
Emergency meetings and agendas. Any of the governmental entities listed above 
must have notice of an emergency meeting, an emergency revision to an agenda, 
and the reason for such emergency posted for at least two hours before the

participation in public meetings. Upon request, agencies must provide auxiliary
