...The second question central to this appeal can be resolved by analyzing the interaction between chapters 120, 1001, and 1002. Chapters 120 and 1001 are easily reconcilable. Although section

...However, although the School Board may have properly noticed its special meeting under these provisions, an agency meeting is clearly separate in the APA from a hearing necessitated by an agency determining the substantial interests of a party, as the latter is found in section
