OPINION
BEN H. CANTRELL, Judge.
The plaintiff claimed that Nashville’s Board of Parks and Recreation conducted its business in such a way as to violate the Open Meetings Act, Tenn.Code Ann. § 8-44-101, et seq. The trial court refused to discipline the Board, dismissing the complaint against it on a finding that the Board had committed a merely technical violation of the Act. We reverse, and direct the court to impose judicial oversight upon the Board, as is required by the Act, but we decline to comply with the plaintiffs request that we declare the Board’s action to be void and of no effect.
