Every time I file a Freedom of Information request with the City of Crystal Lake, I get at least one Certified letter.
Two, if city officials ask for a delay, as they did with three of my recent requests.
$5.32 times 3.
I’m sure the taxpayers of Crystal Lake will be happy to know they have money to burn.
The Crystal Lake Park District just called me on the phone to tell its Freedom of Information response was ready to be picked up.
Typically the Village of Downers grove, where I live, emails me the documents as pdf files. Fast, efficient, zero expense.
No one ever suggested Crystal Lake was a model to follow.
