[edit] Public access counselor says Muncie violated law

"The city of Muncie gave The Star Press "a number of problematic reasons" for denial of access to a proposed street-paving list for 2008, Indiana Public Access Counselor Heather Willis Neal has concluded.

Responding to the newspaper's formal complaint alleging the city violated the Access to Public Records Act (APRA), Neal wrote in an advisory opinion that Mayor Sharon McShurley and City Attorney Frank Gilkison clearly violated APRA and that City Controller Mary Ann Kratochvil likely violated both APRA and a law protecting public records from destruction."
