FOIA Request to City of Anna Regarding Unpaid Parking Violations on October 28, 2024.
A Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request was submitted to the City of Anna by Southern Illinois News, a media organization committed to comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs. The request, sent on October 28, 2024, seeks access to records detailing all currently unpaid parking violations within the city's jurisdiction.
Specifically, we at Southern Illinois News are requesting a list that includes the name of each offender, their address, the amount due for each violation, the date of the violation, and the total amount due.
As journalists dedicated to providing transparency and holding public institutions accountable, we believe access to these public records is essential in fulfilling our professional responsibilities. We have also requested a fee waiver as part of this FOIA request given our role in disseminating information as media professionals.
We eagerly await a response from the City of Anna and will continue our work in providing comprehensive coverage on local governmental affairs.
