FOIA - Might want to keep an eye on Decatur City Council

Found this in my hometown newspaper today, any broadcast outlets might want to keep and ear/eye on this.

(it spans from discussions about a corner on the north side of Decatur, where a school was taken down to put in a Target.)

DECATUR - The Decatur City Council met last month in closed session to discuss the city's "very serious" negotiations with Starbucks Coffee.

But the conversation quickly erupted beyond the topic at hand, according to a tape of the session released to the Herald & Review after the newspaper filed a Freedom of Information Act request.

Kim:

Many thanks. I hadn't looked at Forum for a while and have been out of town for most of the past two weeks but I will try to keep an eye on it.
