<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt">Dear All,</P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt">I am requesting all information
relative to the upcoming Michigan Commission for the Blind <SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>meeting (June 15, 2012) that is now or
will be in the hands of the MCB Commissioners. In addition I am requesting all
correspondences related to EO 2012-2 and 2012-6 as they pertain to MCB’s State
Plan, and all information written to date relative to the State Plan. This is
not a FOIA request for as you all know by now all documents related to MCB’s
quarterly meetings and its State Plan are required to be fully accessible to the
public in accordance with both Title I and Section 504 of the very
Rehabilitation Act of 1973 that created and funds MCB to begin with. Moreover,
the Americans with disabilities Act of 1990 requires effective communications
with those of us who are blind and under Tyler v. Manhattan this responsibility
is an affirmative one on the agency’s part. This is the Commission for the Blind
after all.</P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt">Please simply send all requested
documents to my e-mail address listed above ASAP and also please ensure me they
all will be made available in a variety of formats including Braille at the
aforementioned meeting.</P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt">Failure to respond in a timely
