A Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request was sent to Marinette County on September 26, 2024, by NE Wisconsin News. The media organization is seeking comprehensive information about all payments made to vendors within the county from January 1, 2024, through September 26, 2024.
The specific details requested include the vendor name, transaction date, transaction description, and the amount of each payment. This information will provide a clear picture of the county's financial dealings with vendors during this period.
At NE Wisconsin News, we believe that access to public records is crucial for us to fulfill our professional responsibilities. This includes holding public institutions accountable and providing transparency to the public. As a media organization committed to delivering accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs, we consider ourselves eligible for a fee waiver as media professionals.
We look forward to Marinette County's cooperation in providing these records as per the Wisconsin Open Records Law.
