FOIA Request to Saline County regarding vendor payment registers on November 10, 2025.
A Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request was submitted to Saline County, Illinois, seeking access to specific financial records. The request, sent by SE Illinois News, a media organization dedicated to reporting on local governmental affairs, aims to obtain copies of existing vendor payment registers maintained by the county. These records cover the period from January 1, 2025, to March 31, 2025.
The requested documents should include details such as the names of vendors paid by the county, dates and amounts of payments made, and descriptions of goods or services purchased. The request specifies that only existing records are sought and no new documents need to be created. Additionally, there is a preference for receiving these records in electronic format if available.
SE Illinois News is part of The Coalition Opposing Governmental Secrecy, a non-profit organization that supports media companies and public advocacy groups in investigating government agencies through Freedom of Information and Sunshine Laws. This coalition aims to enhance transparency and accountability within public institutions.
In Saline County during the 2022-23 school year, there was an average student-to-teacher ratio of 12-to-1 with 3,654 students enrolled across schools staffed by 301 full-time faculty members.
