A Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request was sent to the City of Bloomington regarding unpaid parking violations on October 28, 2024.
As part of our commitment to provide comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs at McLean County Times, we requested records under the Illinois Freedom of Information Act, 5 ILCS 140. The specific request is 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.
At McLean County Times, we believe in holding public institutions accountable and providing transparency to the public. Access to such public records is essential for us to fulfill our professional responsibilities. Given our role in disseminating information as a media organization, we have requested a fee waiver for this service.
We are awaiting a response from the City of Bloomington and will keep our readers updated with any developments.
