[edit] Clarke BOE, counsel need schooling on records
"Despite the position of the Clarke County Board of Education and its attorney to the contrary, the contract offered to new Clarke County Schools Superintendent Philip Lanoue was a public document even before the new superintendent signed it. The fact the board and its attorney apparently didn't know that is a clear sign they may need a detailed review of the state's Open Records Act, which sets the parameters for public access to government documents.
In the hours before the board voted unanimously Thursday to extend Lanoue a $165,000 per year contract (bumped up to $170,000 when he completes work on his doctorate), board member Denise Mewborn, who headed the district's months-long superintendent search, told this newspaper the contract wouldn't be released until Lanoue signed it."
