Freedom of Information Act

 Municipal Directory & Freedom of Information Index (PDF)

The Palatine Park District will disclose public records as required by the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. § 552. The District can deny a request for records that are specifically exempt from coverage under the Act, including information that would constitute an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy or a compromise of security.

Submitting a FOIA Request

To review a record, a person must submit a request in writing via personal delivery, mail, e-mail or telefax. The requestor must clearly state if the request is going to be used for commercial purposes (for the sale, resale or solicitation or advertisement for sales or services).

Requests can be submitted via the following means:

  • Drop-off or Mail:
    FOIA Officer
    Palatine Park District
    FOIA Request
    Community Center Administration Office
    250 E. Wood Street, Palatine, IL, 60067-5358
  • Email: FOIAOfficer@palatineparks.org
  • Fax: 847.991.2127

All requests must be submitted in writing to the attention of the Freedom of Information Act Officer. Applicants may use the Palatine Park District FOIA Request Form or may submit their own written request for records. Applicants choosing not to use the provided form must provide their full name, current address, phone number, a detailed account of the documents they are requesting and whether or not they are requesting the documents for commercial use.

FOIA Officers

The Palatine Park District appointed FOIA Officers are Executive Assistant Trish Feid and Executive Director Mike Clark. Their responsibilities include receiving information requests from the public and sending responses in compliance with FOIA.

Response Time for FOIA Requests

Within five (5) business days after the date the District receives the request, one of the designated FOIA officers reviews and responds to the request. Beyond the five business days, the FOIA Officer can extend the response time for no more than five (5) additional business days. Requests made for commercial purposes can be extended for no more than twenty-one (21) additional business days. The time period can only be extended for the following reasons: if the requested information is stored at a different location, requires the collection of a substantial number of documents or an extensive search, has not been located, needs to be reviewed further by staff to determine whether they are exempt from FOIA, cannot be produced without unduly burdening the public body or interfering with its operations or requires the public body to consult with another public body that has substantial interest in the requested subject matter or both parties agree in writing to an extension specifying when the request will be filled.
