All,

 

I just got through listening to a recording of the public meeting of the Elected Operators committee Meeting of Sept. 28, 2013.

 

Now, I’m writing to request the following:

 

The draft minutes of this meeting which are supposed to be made available within (8) working days under the Michigan Open Meetings Act (and with no charge by the way).

 

In addition I am requesting in accessible format all referenced information including the written report of James Hull again in accessible format that was referenced in this meeting.

 

Note: under relevant portions of the ADA and Section 504 and, indeed LARA’s own accessible meeting policy based upon these laws, all printed information related to such meetings were to be made accessible at that meeting and certainly are to be made accessible at no cost to me upon request.

All,

 

I just got through listening to a recording of the public meeting of the Elected Operators committee Meeting of Sept. 28, 2013.

 

Now, I’m writing to request the following:

 

The draft minutes of this meeting which are supposed to be made available within (8) working days under the Michigan Open Meetings Act (and with no charge by the way).

 

In addition I am requesting in accessible format all referenced information including the written report of James Hull again in accessible format that was referenced in this meeting.

 

Note: under relevant portions of the ADA and Section 504 and, indeed LARA’s own accessible meeting policy based upon these laws, all printed information related to such meetings were to be made accessible at that meeting and certainly are to be made accessible at no cost to me upon request.

 

 

And certainly you can’t charge me extensively for searching for these documents which you all have at your ready and would be using an abuse of the FOIA (a state law) to trump clearly required meeting related documents under the two above cited federal civil rights laws.

 

That would be a violation of the general anti-discrimination provisions of both the ADA and 504.

 

Back to Hull’s report, I am especially interested in his written report relative to Administrative reviews, license revocations, etc.

 

 

Now, all I request is that you send me promptly these documents and reports as either/or Word attachments; plain text enclosures to my e-mail adress listed above.

 

A failure to promtly comply with this request for simple minutes and written reports to this meeting is actionable and will represent continued violations against my person of established civil rights laws.

 

Thus I do expect a prompt response. And by the way you also might wish to in a timely manner post this information to BSBP’s web site.

 

Sincerely,

 

Paul Joseph Harcz, Jr.
