FOIA Request to Jackson County Regarding Vendor Payments from January 1, 2024, to September 26, 2024.
In our continuous effort to provide comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs, we at Great Lakes Wire have sent a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to Jackson County in Michigan. The request was sent on September 26, 2024.
We are seeking access to public records that detail all payments made to vendors within the specified period. The requested information includes the vendor name, transaction date, transaction description, and the amount paid.
As a media organization dedicated to transparency and accountability in public institutions, we believe that this information is essential for us to fulfill our professional responsibilities. Accessing these records will allow us to report accurately on how public funds are being spent in Jackson County.
We have also requested a fee waiver for this FOIA request based on our role as a media organization disseminating information to the public.
We await a response from Jackson County officials and will continue to keep the public informed about local government operations and expenditures.
