Illinois FOIA case tests fee waiver in public interest
IDNR faced a FOIA challenge after denying a fee waiver request for RACE. Judge Stewart ruled the denial improper, suggesting a precedent for agency handling of fee waivers in Illinois. Attorneys for RACE praise the decision while IDNR and AG officials review options, with no immediate appeal decision. Public funds debate noted over ATV development financing from user fees rather than tax money.
