[edit] Open-records law fuels spats with municipalities
"Every community has one: the gadfly, the complainer, the curmudgeon. The concerned citizen with a comment at the ready for the most ordinary of agenda items, pen in pocket for scouring budgets line by line to account for every dollar.
They are there to keep local government honest, with help from the state's new Right to Know Law that took effect in January.
But some municipalities are starting to complain that the law is miring them in paper work and creating logistical and financial headaches."
