The city was barraged with #SunshineSTL requests, some of which received responses not in compliance with the MO sunshine law.

Does anyone have a spare 🎟️ for #CardsOpeningDay ?

Contesting #SunshineSTL responses between innings might expedite the city’s fulfillment of recent records requests regarding the #ArmoryDataCenter

The city's deliberations on the proposed #datacenterSTL in the Armory district cannot be trusted.
Similar #SunshineSTL requests for zoning records yielded very different results. #3728Market
I was charged a fee & received a 7 page PDF.
@smb-grove.bsky.social received a 33 page PDF at no charge.

City of St. Louis Open Government Fail:
The fee payment system for #SunshineSTL requests.
One can only pay the fee for fulfillment of a request by check, cashier’s check or money order.
After the city receives a check for a Sunshine request, there is a 5 day wait before the city provides records.

The approved minutes for Sep. thru' Nov. were uploaded to the #PlanCommSTL meeting material archive after I submitted #SunshineSTL request R000030-010526.

The City of St. Louis' Public Records Center* needs a shake up from Mayor @caraspencer.bsky.social
Since the early weeks of the administration, responsive records to #SunshineSTL requests are no longer available for public view for any STL gov body. Only the requester has access.

Friendly reminder to Custodians of Records:
You cannot alter a record prior to the fulfillment of a #SunshineSTL request.
Redaction in accordance with #MOsunshine statutes is fine.

If the members of the new police board uttered the word "transparency" once, they said it 911 times at the 1st meeting on July 17.
My 2 cents: the public needs to watch the operations of the police board body closely & verify that its actions back up the rhetoric.

Update on my 3rd #SunshineSTL request for the slide presentation (image 2) used in the 9.6.23 Sunshine Law Training:
Atty E. Roth’s email (image 1) stating the presentation was a closed record under #MOsunshine law was sent on S. Hamilton’s final day as CC & Mayor Spencer’s first day in office. 👀

Hamilton insisted that trainings on the Sunshine law for board members be conducted in closed session, including at at the 9.6.23 Charter Commission. She refused to release the slide presentation in response to a #SunshineSTL request.
I will submit an identical request. Stay tuned.

When it comes to fulfillment of #SunshineSTL requests by City of St. Louis government bodies, the Airport sets the standard for prompt responses.

Today's SLDC "Grant Advisory Committee" meeting has been postponed to a later date.
Per an email obtained via a #SunshineSTL request, Neal Richardson invited PBOA Megan Green and Comptroller Darlene Green to appoint a rep. to the committee.
At the time of my request, the committee had not met.

It's absurd that there is no electronic option for the payment of fees associated with #SunshineSTL requests for public records. Only checks are accepted. At least SLDC provides a receipt for payment, the City Counselor's office does not.

Not-so-open government update: I’m still waiting for #SunshineSTL requests to be fulfilled for recent tax breaks.
Applications/data for financial analysis:
➡️ #BB161 Anheuser Busch (see images)
➡️ #BB166 Anders CPA.
I suspect the dates for response records will be pushed back yet again.

The City's failure to fulfill #SunshineSTL requests in compliance with MO statute is delaying action against #LuxLivingSTL
"Johnson needs the records to help make the case that the landlords have a pattern of bad behavior, but he has to overcome the city’s bad behavior before he can make that case"
