Dear Anonymous Requester: You submitted a Freedom of Information Act records request to the City of Berwyn on October 5, 2022. I wrote to you on November 4, 2022 and responded in part and denied another part of your FOIA request. The denial was based on the section of your request we deemed to be unduly burdensome as defined under 5 ILCS 140/3 (g). I also determined that your request was voluminous as defined by 5 ILCS 140/2 (h). I explained in my letter that under the Illinois FOIA act you had 10 (ten) business days to contact me so we might confer about reducing your request. That period of time has elapsed.
Please be advised that the City of Berwyn is denying the remaining part of your Freedom of Information Act request. You may have this denial reviewed by the Public Access Counselor's Office of the State Attorney General. They ask that you send a copy of your original FOIA request (previously provided to you), a copy of our November 4, 2022 letter, and a copy of this email along with your request for review. Send your request to:
Public Access Counselor, Office of the Attorney General
500 S 2nd Street, Springfield, IL 62706
You may also fax your Request for Review to (217)782-1396 or email it to publicaccess@atg.state.il.us<mailto:publicaccess@atg.state.il.us>. You may also file a lawsuit in Cook County Circuit Court.
