This time of year there are numerous legislative things happening on the public records front. Here are some of them:
Public given one minute to testify on Public Records Act bill.
Newspapers editorialize against Public Records Act bills.
Editorial from The (Vancouver) Columbian on Public Records Act bills.
School districts want to charge for "search time" to gather public records.
“Og-blog” stands for “open-government blog” and that’s what we do: tell people about open-government issues of interest to regular citizens, media, trade associations, and government agencies. We find interesting stories and court cases from Washington State and other places about the Public Records Act, Open Public Meetings Act, access-to-court rulings, and media law.
We warmly welcome your thoughts on og-blog and especially welcome your emails with suggested postings and links to interesting stories and court cases. If you have something to say about open government in Washington State, sending it to og-blog is probably the best way to get it out. Don’t hesitate to contact us at greg@overstreet-law.com.
