On April 28, 2022, I requested information concerning the construction of a new Club House for the RedTail Golf Club:
“Under the FOIA I request all internal and external communication by any board member, appointed committee member, or employee of the Village with regard to the golf course clubhouse redevelopment.”
It usually takes five business days (usually a week unless there are holidays), but governments can request a week more.
But, in doing so, the government must state the reason a delay is needed.
Here’s what Lakewood FOI Officer wrote:
The date a reply is required is not May 12th, the day after the next Lakewood Board meeting.
Gotta shred those docs
