Yes, as a matter of fact it goes to the over all conflicts of interests and 
the generalmisappropriation of funds; as well as those unaccounted for. And 
we all know that goes on in BEP as a general rule of tumb and practice.

Best,

Joe

Interesting enough, but is it tied somehow to BEP or Randolph-Sheppard
concerns?

Dear Mr. Harcz, Jr.:



This letter is in response to your January 6, 2012, email request for copies
of public records, received on January 9, 2012.  Please be informed that the
Department’s Michigan Commission for the Blind (MCB) is processing this

seq.



You have requested information as described in your email, a copy of which

Your request is granted as to existing, nonexempt records in the possession

Commissioners, Michigan Commission for the Blind



(Via e-mail)





Dear Mr. Cannon and Commissioners,



I am writing today to ask some questions and to get some detailed financial
breakdowns relative to the following LARA expenditures

Found on DTMB transparency web site at:

http://apps.michigan.gov/MiTransparency/Vendor/Agencies?y=2012&v=NEW%20HORIZONS%20REHABILITATION%20SERVICES&Column=AgencyName&Direction=Ascending



“Payments to NEW HORIZONS REHABILITATION SERVICES for fiscal year 2012



Click on a agency name to view payments to this vendor by this agency.



Table with 2 columns and 2 rows

Agency Name

Payment Totals

LICENSING AND REGULATORY AFFAIRS

$194,725.38”



Note these are expenditures denoted in this current State of Michigan Fiscal
Year alone and I’ll send a separate request for detailed accounting of MCB
expenditures made in FY 2011 and FY 2010 which anyone in the public has the
absolute right to and which should be sent to commissioners routinely as
well.



Regardless I wish for you to break out the numbers for MCB payments made to
New Horizons for I realize some of these expenditures are related to the
Michigan Rehabilitation Services. And I wish to know what they are for.



In other words send me the data related to job development, job shadowing,
transition services, vocational assessments and the like made with this
Community Rehabilitation Program and send me the authorizations of same.



Do not tell me that you or MCB cannot do this and don’t throw a FOIA [petard
at me either. Your comments made to Commissioners relative to not being able
to produce such data as this and even intakes, closures, etc. displays your
arrogant disregard for your fiduciary obligations and your stark and utter
violations of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 as amended, PA 260 and basic
principles of transparency let alone basic notions of competence of a GS-19
making $125,000 per year and directing this critical State agency.



I, also wish for this information in fully accessible format pursuant to
obligations under Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (Title II,
subpart e, communications) as I am indeed blind. To wit send the requested
information is either Word attachments or plain text enclosures to my e-mail
address listed above. And again I suggest that you ensure such information
is made routinely available on MCB’s own web site in html form.



Cordially,



Paul Joseph Harcz, Jr.
