FOIA Request to City of Auburn Regarding Unpaid Parking Violations on October 28, 2024.
As part of our ongoing commitment to provide comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs, we at Sangamon Sun have submitted a request for records under the Illinois Freedom of Information Act, 5 ILCS 140.
The requested information pertains specifically to unpaid parking violations within the city. We have asked for a list that includes the name of the offender, their address, the amount due, violation date, and total due. This information is crucial in our efforts to shed light on local issues and hold public institutions accountable.
We believe access to such public records is essential in fulfilling our professional responsibilities and providing transparency to the public. Given our role in disseminating information as a media organization, we have also requested a fee waiver.
Our team at Sangamon Sun remains committed to delivering quality news coverage and will continue to seek out necessary information through all available channels. Please stay tuned for updates on this matter as we receive more information from the City of Auburn.
