Georgia Community Services Board (CSB) salary information
Asked by Michael Paktinat on January 21, 2016.
In Georgia, Community Services Board (CSB) are public agencies created by state law to provide mental health, developmental disability, and/or substance abuse services. There are ~25 independent CSBs throughout the state and they are free to use their own individual HR/accounting systems. A few simple calls lets me know they dont all use a system provided by the state.
Given I don’t think an agency “up stream” such as DBHDD or the CSBs various incorporated 501c6 and 501c3 would have the information on hand, I wonder if filing a request to a ‘upstream’ entity who I think does not have a record can oblige them to discover the record from their child entity.
For example there is a 501c6 that claims to represent all CSBs in the state. Would a FOIA or georgia open records request just be denied because they dont have it “on hand”?
