McHenry County Blog | Crystal Lake Loses Precedent-Setting FOIA Ruling on Hiding High Salaried Employees’ Names

This appears to be very similar to our situation in Boone County.  See:  http://www.boonecountywatchdog.blogspot.com/2012/11/budgeted-salaries-and-benefit-costs-for.html  Boone County is also only supplying job positions and not the individual names.

“We conclude that the City violate Section 7.3(a) of the O[pen] M[eetings] A[ct] by failing to post the names of employees whose total compensation packages exceed $75,000 per year. Accordingly, we request that the City immediately revise the information posted on its website to include the names of those employees, and also provide Mr. Skinner with an electronic copy of the salary compensation for those employees.”

The City has complied with the Public Access Divisions’ request.
