FOIA Request to City of Sumner Regarding Unpaid Parking Violations on October 28, 2024. As part of our ongoing commitment to providing comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs, we at East Central Reporter have requested records under the Illinois Freedom of Information Act, 5 ILCS 140.
Our request is specifically for a list of all parking violations currently unpaid in the city. The information we seek includes the name of the offender, their address, the amount due, violation date, and total due.
As a media organization, our role involves gathering and reporting news to the public. Access to public records is essential for us to fulfill our professional responsibilities which include holding public institutions accountable and providing transparency to the public. We believe that given our role in disseminating information, we are eligible for a fee waiver as a media professional.
We look forward to working with the City of Sumner in obtaining this important information and will keep you updated on any developments regarding this request.
