FOIA Request to City of Marion Regarding Unpaid Parking Violations on October 28, 2024. The Carbondale Reporter, a media organization committed to providing comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs, has requested records under the Illinois Freedom of Information Act.
The request specifically asks for a list of all parking violations currently unpaid in the city. The details sought include the name of the offender, their address, the amount due, violation date, and total due.
As part of our commitment to holding public institutions accountable and providing transparency to the public, we believe access to these public records is essential. Given our role in disseminating information as a media organization, we have also asked for a fee waiver for this request.
We await a response from the City of Marion's city clerk's office and will continue to keep our readers informed about local government affairs.
