FOIA Request to City of Fairfield regarding a list of city employees on August 21, 2025.
A request was submitted to the City of Fairfield under the Illinois Freedom of Information Act (5 ILCS 140) by SE Illinois News. The request seeks a comprehensive list of all city employees, detailing their full names, sex, race, job titles, departments or divisions, annual salaries (or hourly rates if applicable), and hire/start dates. This information is requested in an electronic format.
The purpose of this request is to facilitate transparency and accountability within public institutions by providing the media with access to essential public records. SE Illinois News emphasizes its role in disseminating information to the public and highlights its membership in The Coalition Opposing Governmental Secrecy. This organization aids media companies and advocacy groups in investigating governmental agencies through Freedom of Information and Sunshine Laws.
In Illinois, pet owners must have a license for certain pets, like dogs, and comply with state and local regulations. These licenses are defined in the Illinois Animal Welfare Act and must comply with the Animal Welfare Act and Animal Welfare Rules. The pet license typically involves a fee and must be renewed periodically. Licensing supports animal control and health programs and helps ensure that pets have the correct vaccinations, especially against deadly and highly contagious diseases like rabies.
SE Illinois News has also requested a fee waiver based on its status as a media professional involved in gathering news for public dissemination.
