RE: Meeting Minutes Last Michigan Commission for the Blind Meeting

Dear Sirs and Madame,

 

I am writing you today to request the entire draft meeting minutes of the last Michigan Commission for the Blind public meeting of September 21, 2012. As you know that was a required meeting under the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and associated information related to these meetings are required to be made accessible and indeed kept under Title I of the Rehabilitation Act which funds the former commission.

 

As you also know the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 also requires that public information is made available to people who are blind in a timely and accessible format (re: Tyler v. Manhattan, and ADA, Title II, subpart e, communications).

 

As you also know the Michigan Open Meetings Act requires that minutes are kept for such public meetings and that "draft" meeting minutes must be remitted to the public within eight working days.

 

Thus, as a person who is blind I am requesting these minutes in my most accessible format which is to have them sent to my e-mail address listed above as either/or a Word attachment and/or plain text enclosure.

 

 

Failure to promptly respond is a violation of my known civil rights under the Rehabilitation Act and the ADA and is actionable.

 

Thus I do expect a prompt and accessible response to this inquiry and thank you for it in advance.

 

 

Sincerely,

 

 

Paul Joseph Harcz, Jr.
