DC Government Ignores Community FOIA Request
Deputy Mayor for Planning and Economic Development (DMPED) Hides Public “Exclusive Rights Agreement” with Private Developer
The following email chain clearly documents DMPED’s promise to deliver to the community prior to the 6 June 2013 McMillan Park Surplus Meeting a copy of the City’s “Exclusive Rights Agreement” with Vision McMillan Partners. The community filed Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests to obtain a copy of this public contract on 17 October 2012 and again on 11 May 2013. Despite DMPED’s legal obligation to disclose this information and their promise to do so prior to 6 June in the email below, the City to-date has failed to deliver a copy of this hidden Agreement for public review. What is our government hiding?
