FOIA Request to Dekalb County Regarding Vendor Payments on September 26, 2024. As part of our ongoing commitment to provide comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs, we at DeKalb Times have requested specific records under the Illinois Freedom of Information Act, 5 ILCS 140.
Our request specifically seeks a list of all payments made to vendors from January 1, 2024, till September 26, 2024. The information we are seeking includes the vendor name, transaction date, transaction description, and the amount paid.
As journalists dedicated to holding public institutions accountable and providing transparency to the public, access to these public records is essential for us to fulfill our professional responsibilities. We believe that as media professionals disseminating information to the public, we are eligible for a fee waiver.
We await a response from Dekalb County and will continue to update our readers with any developments in this matter.
