[edit] Citizen Wins FOI Battle With Lincoln County

"A Lincoln County woman’s lengthy battle to force county officials to release public records has ended in a victory for her – and for the public.

“I feel vindicated,” said Joann Hager of Tri-County Animal Rescue. “It took over 18 months to receive copies of documents. I feel it will be a victory for the residents of Lincoln County if processes are changed and new procedures are developed to store/maintain public records. Public documents were destroyed and the board of commissioners admitted to this,” she said."
