A Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request was sent to Butler County on October 7, 2024. The request was made by Keystone Today, a media organization dedicated to providing comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs.
In the request, we sought records under the Pennsylvania Right to Know Law, specifically asking for a list of FOIA logs that were sent to the county from January 1, 2024, through October 7, 2024. The fields requested in these logs include the requester's name and organization, the content of the request, the date it was made and completed, as well as its current status.
As a media organization committed to transparency and accountability in public institutions, access to these public records is essential for us at Keystone Today. We believe that our role in gathering and disseminating information makes us eligible for a fee waiver as a media professional.
We are awaiting a response from Butler County regarding this request.
