[edit] POMFRET: Ruling Says Panel Violated FOI Law

"The town planning and zoning commission violated the law last year by failing to provide three residents with town documents in a timely manner, according to the state Freedom of Information Commission.

In their FOI complaints, Pomfret residents Chuck Boster, Paul Hennen and Ford Fay contended that the planning and zoning commission violated the law during public meetings on Jan. 9, 15 and 25, 2008.

The residents had asked for copies of documents discussed during the meetings — two draft memorandums from the town planner that detailed proposed changes to the town zoning regulations; and a letter from the town attorney about the proposed amendments."
